This hotel is at the top of Malaga, directly under the castle. It's out of the way of all the city noise. There is a very steep walking path to downtown. We walked to the beach and restaurants. Getting to the main shopping area is a little out of the way. The walk back uphill was not reasonable so we took a taxi. They seem short on staff in the restaurant and breakfast area. The waitstaff that was on hand couldn't keep up. They were very friendly however.

Awesome Views
Lovely Parador at the top of the hill with the most gorgeous view! Carla received us warmly and was very helpful as well. Our room was of a good size, bright, clean, and with an awesome view, looking over the port of Malaga. Breakfast was good and plentiful. Lots of parking around the premises We didn’t have dinner at their restaurant. I would recommend this hotel for the views, but be aware that to go down and up from where all the recommended tapa bars and restaurants are located, will take you some time to public-park and walk to them.

Great location, shame about the rooms
This is not a cheap stay, you pay for the location and view and rooms are spacious. However they are quite simple with bare floors and very thin walls so you can hear alot of banging and scraping. The clientele when we were there were older couples so the noise did reduce at night. Also they did accommodate a room change request for this reason, although the second room suffered the same problem. It is just the construction of the building. The breakfast and dinner are good and the service was excellent. However, overall, the value was not great. The location is not great if you want other dining or shopping options.

Quiet away to itself on top of hill but close to city centre along a steep path past the castle to the alcazar. Take 35 bus back up unless you enjoy the climb. Unique location. Immaculate hotel with efficient staff.
