Overall just slightly above average but the views are exceptional. Not a great value.

Unmatched views. Incredibly helpful and attentive reception staff.

AC did not function properly on our 2nd night. Dreadfully poor service at lunch restaurant… super slow and personnel disappear for lengthy amounts of time.

Loved the views from the hotel but wouldn’t return to this hotel

Views from the property are amazing and the rooms were very clean.

The hotel is quite dated and would benefit from a refurbishment. The breakfast was ok but the dinner in the restaurant in the evening was very overpriced and the service wasn’t great.

We chose this hotel as my friend has stayed in other parador hotels and was very impressed.

The rooftop pool area is lovely Its a traditional hotel with amazing views over malaga Our room had a balcony overlooking the port Super clean and comfortable Lovely breakfast

No bar service at rooftop pool meaning you have to get back to reception to get drinks Drinks menu limited I'd have expected cocktails on their menu

Hier entscheidet einzig die Lage

Die Lage des Hotels ist super. Der Fußweg aus der Stadt ist jedoch sehr steil und rutschig. Der ÖPNV verkehrt nur jede Stunde und nur bis 21.00 Uhr abends.

Das Personal ist außer beim Frühstück sehr unfreundlich und unaufmerksam. Die Tische in der Bar wurden erst abgeräumt wenn man fragte, ob man sich setzten könne. Beim Dinner wurde der Hauptgang unmittelbar auf die Vorspeise aufgetischt, man hatte noch nicht mal Zeit neues Besteck aufzulegen.

Wohlfühlwoche in Malaga.

Die schöne Blick über die Stadt. Das hervorragende Frühstück. Die Freundlichkeit aller Mitarbeiter*innen. Das ansprechende Zimmer im 3. Stock.

Kleine Anregung: Ein wechselndes Tagesmenü im Restaurant.

2 nachten verblijf

Het uitzicht is prachtig

Hotelgasten krijgen minder aandacht dan terrasgasten. Voor bezoekers hotel zijn paar terrastafels beschikbaar de meerderheid is voor bezoekers van buiten het hotel. We zijn maar wat gaan drinken bij de pool omdat er geen plaats voor ons buiten was. Dat voelt niet gastvrij. De kamer bleef ondanks dat de airco aan stond te warm helaas.

A peaceful place to access the city from

Lovely position and outlook., although the steep hill make it difficult for most people to get to on foot.Bus or taxi needed Very clean and well cared for. Nice big room

Pleasant staff but not enough of them as service was very slow. The shower in the bathroom was antiquated with poor water flow

Great location just outside the the centre of the city but ideally placed to enjoy everything Malaga has to it

Great views over Malaga, excellent facilities & most importantly friendly staff

Medbring ørepropper!

Udsigten fra værelset var fremragende. Maden på restauranten var rigtig god.

Der er ingen støj-isolering på værelset (gælder formodentlig alle værelser) så man kan høre alt hvad der foregår på de omkringliggende værelser!

Stressful

The veiw

The room was on a low level by the side road, we were woke up at 2 in the morning by very noisy guests, who had lots of other guests in there room…staff were not friendly at all, we were told by the hotel the the walk down to the Malaga was 15 minutes, unfortunately we ended up needed to walk back after an evening out in Malaga, we should’ve never been told that the walk was possible as it took us over 40 minutes in mostly dark conditions, all very uphill, and nearly gave me a heart attack. I think the hotel should warn people that it’s not an easy walk.

It was very memorable. Worth the money. Would have liked a shuttle bus.

Almost everything. Fabulous location. Staff at reception very professional Breakfast Views from bedroom. Swimming pool Library

Staff is very slow in serving at the bar and in all dining areas Transport. As we did not have a car we used the hop on bus to get to centre. There is a bus and it comes every hour or hour and a half Staff at breakfast spoke a little English.

Lovely 3rd Visit.

Our 3rd stay here but we had to change rooms the first night as there was a problem with the electrics, but we were glad we did as the new room was much bigger and given we were staying 8 nights we needed the space. The first room 201, is small with an accessible wet room rather than the lovely larger bathroom that we had in 206. The views are good from all rooms we've had but I think the 2nd and 3rd floors are the best. The staff are lovely, breakfast very good, housekeeping excellent, beds very comfortable. Plenty of towels and toiletries. 2nd room was missing a hairdryer but one was found immediately. Reasonably priced mini bar and free tea/coffee replenished daily. The views from the bar/terrace are lovely. The hotel is next to the castle and also on a bus route, which we used frequently, very cheap to get in to the city centre

The first room we were in was too small for an 8 night stay in my opinion and only had 1 armchair it was more suited to 1 person with limited mobility not 2 although it did have a double bed. The pool is a little on the small side and a long way from the cafe/bar if you want a drink. One of the sockets in the room didn't work but there were plenty of others.

We came for the view over the city - we got it!

We had a room with nice view from the balcony over the harbour and the city of Malaga with great sunrises and sunsets. Hotel room & the hotel was clean and the staff very friendly. We plan to come back! Many thanks.

Lovely hotel for a relaxing break.

Great location, with a wonderful view of the city of Malaga and along the coast. Rooms were spacious. Staff very helpful and friendly. It is possible to walk to the city along a tree lined path. The walk takes about 20 minutes, it is steep in places - wear appropriate footwear. There is a regular public bus that stops outside the entrance gate to the hotel. The bus costs 1.40 euro to travel to the centre of Malaga and takes about 10 minutes. The food at breakfast and in the bar was delicious. We will be back.

Wonderful stay at the Parador Gibralfaro

Spacious room with balcony and amazing view. Great staff. The public bus service to the centre of Malaga was very convenient, the reception staff gave us the bus timetable. A taxi service is also available. The swimming pool area was lovely, with a great view of the city. Breakfast was varied and a gluten free diet was well catered for. We also had bar food, the menu was varied and food delicious. A very enjoyable stay.

Great to have a pool, good location and great staff.

Location was great.

I think the rooms on the lower floor were disappointing as they are quite dark and uninspired for such a great location. Huge TV not really that important but some nicer products in the room would have helped but I think for almost £200 a night for a double room I would expect not to be on the lower ground .

Overall the stay was good, the staff very pleasant. A little far to the beach hence would help if pool was open a bit ea

It’s a little old, perhaps requires renovation

Superbly location particularly if you don’t mind a hill walk which we did each day.

Lovely breakfast; great room with superb view. Comfortable bed. Helpful staff.

Balcony wasn’t very private (wooden partition screen) so we didn’t t use it when next door were out there.

Everyone should visit this hotel, you need a top floor room.

Amazing view of the city, great room, good food ,very helpful and friendly staff.

My only area of improvement would be get more staff serving in the evenings in the bar, especially when it’s busy.

Good

The location is absolutely fantastic! We were able to see the port (from the balcony), the bullfighting arena (the room balcony), and we were able to walk to Gibralfaro Castle. The hop on hop off bus stops very close to the hotel. Very convenient. This hotel is the best option for those who enjoy walking. Beautiful area with a great view to the sea. The housekeeping is good, the hotel and the room were nice and clean. The Uber from hotel to the city central area was surprisingly not expensive. The place is quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed our evenings having a glass of local vine at our balcony and the beautiful view to the sea.

Booked the room with a king-size bed. We were given the two separate beds. Pricy. The nearest mini market is in a walkable distance, BUT ... again for those who enjoy walking. Because the path to the mini store is easy as you are coming down from the hill. But walking back uphill can be difficult.

we had a great time and will return.

The hotel had a warm welcoming atmosphere. nice bar good restaurant spacious room with all comforts including kettle coffee machine fridge.

The walk back up the hill was not really possible at night as it’s not well lit and very steep.A courtesy bus would be a great addition ! Although to be fair taxis are plentiful and inexpensive.

very enjoyable but didn’t realise the distance from the centre walking and climbing! definitely feel it coukd have more

the views from the room.. balcony

didn’t feel the food was up to the standard of a 4 star hotel… breakfasts were just okay…feel it needs a bit more attention to detail with management staff were lovely but seemed under pressure especially in the food area…..should also be stated in advertising that the location is fabulous BUT you need to be agile and fit to do the walking up and down to the centre otherwise it would be taxis or the bus…
