Parador de Málaga Golf

I stayed here in the beginning of April. I would choose this hotel again if traveling to Málaga. Room was in good condition and quite big. It had a nice terrace for sitting in the evening sun (my room was facing south-west). The breakfast buffet had bread, cheese, cold cuts, fruit, yoghurt, pastries, etc. No hot food, but the waiters would bring you eggs and/or bacon cooked to your liking if you asked. The coffee machine was the type where you insert a pod into it and it then makes the coffee (there was hot milk available separately). The hotel is car-friendly, there is free parking. I was always able to find a parking spot easily, although the parking lot must have been pretty full on Friday evening, since there were many cars parked outside the designated parking spots on Saturday morning as I left the hotel. The hotel is located about 2km from the runway threshold, so there is aircraft noise. But, since I knew about this in advance, it didn't really bother me.

Great location to the airport, shopping mall and ikea. We only stayed one night but would definitely return due to its location. Staff were friendly, rooms were clean.

Incredible aircraft noise (it's located at the end of the runway) plus kids playing football and making noise right outside your window all evening. This is a parador in name only. The room walls are also paper thin like in a cheap hotel. The manager was extremely rude when we asked if we could move rooms due to the noisy neighbours on both sides, she just walked away while we were asking. Food service was poor due to understaffing, some people got up and started serving themselves their bread and olive oil. I felt sorry for the serving staff there as they were run off their feet. Most of the staff were really nice. Food was good, just like the other paradors we stayed at. Save yourself money and book into a cheap hotel if you want a noisy, kiddie resort with some poor staff.
