Parador de Malaga Gibralfaro

The scenery is stunning! It's like an old 5 star hotel which is very suitable for staycation. The room inside is a bit old but it's acceptable. The hotel is located in the top of a hill. If you're not driving or taking the bus, you should prepare for a hike to get the hotel.

The hotel needs an update in the property condition and improvement in staff attitude. They could not find our dinner reservation made through the reception (even though they specified the time for the table ready). The food did not come after 40 minutes and we were the last who got served bread. The room desperately needed sound proofing. The sound that our next door and upstaires guest made us feel that we are sitting in the train station. When I told the reception about the water sound, the staff said they can ask the guest to be quiet. There were other issues with stained sofa, uneven surface table top. I suggest the prospective guests take our experiences into consideration.
