A typical Parador with a fantastic setting and superior service. Rooms are a little old school but the setting more than makes up for it. We had a superior room with a terrace overlooking the city and the bull ring. A very special view. Breakfast was good too! more

Surprisingly we found appealing accomodation hard to find in Malaga, we may have been looking in the wrong area. We spotted the parador sign and headed there. It sits on top of the hill and the view over the harbour and bay is stunning. We were quoted €149 which is almost double what we paid in many other 4 or... more

Excellent spacious room and very clean and comfortable. But as noted in other comments the overall experience was let down by the service in the restaurant. This was surprising as on the first night we could not fault it. The second was a continuing catalogue of very offhand service culminating in a bill which was inaccurate (it included a dessert... more

Very good position with tremendous views. We had a large good quality room with a balcony. Good restaurant - both food and service. more

From massive cruise ships with their ant like coaches trundling back and forth, to the tiny launch pursuing the ferries to retrieve the pilot. There is a webcam on top of the hotel: search for ayuntamiento parador gibralfaro webcam.... more

The room was very large by European standards and comfortable with a small balcony with a great view. The pool was a perfect respite from Spain's hot August weather and the food at the lounge and the restaurant... more

Our two night stay here ended our 33 day journey in England, Scotland, and Spain. And it was dreamy...perfect. My wife and sons wished we could have stayed longer. Large, well kept rooms. A beautify setting overlooking city, port, and even a glimpse we think of the coast of Africa on the skyline. The food was very good and the... more

Stayed two nights and had a great room (201) with balcony and views over the port and town. Generally very quiet and relaxing hotel with all facilities on site if you just wanted to stay there. Good bar, cafe and restaurant with outside terrace with great views over Malaga for summer dining. 5/6 euros taxi ride into the city centre... more
