HPAR8, Málaga, Andalucia
Located in a privileged position, high up on Gibralfaro hill, beside the castle of the same name in a quiet place away from the hustle and bustle of the city, the Parador is rightly called the 'balcony to the Mediterranean' as it undoubtedly has the best views of the city of Malaga.
Just a short distance to the centre of the city, the Parador is well positioned to discover both the city and the coast with its white sandy beaches and the local famous fresh fish restaurants. If you prefer to stay and relax, you can enjoy an informal meal at the gastronomic space “El Mirador del Mediterraneo” where you can taste and share delicious portions inspired by different regions of Malaga. Or you can treat yourself with a romantic dinner at the traditional restaurant based on traditional Malaga cuisine and seasonal products.
Modern facilities and ample outdoor spaces are perfectly combined here with the charm of a historic building. All rooms are exterior with private terrace and lovely views over the bay. The outdoor swimming pool is open all year round adding to the overall comfort of this classic parador.
35 rooms including doubles and superior doubles. All rooms offer sea views and have en-suite bathroom, air-conditioning, satellite TV and telephone and minibar.

The Parador de Málaga Gibralfaro offers a varied offer based on traditional Malaga cuisine and seasonal products. From its restaurant you will enjoy the best views of Malaga as a backdrop and its bay on the horizon.
As a complement to the traditional restaurant, the gastronomic space El Mirador del Mediterráneo offers a more informal menu and representative products from the different regions of Málaga.
Birthplace of Picasso and gateway to the Costa del Sol, Malaga is the most “happening” city of Spain. Though it is best known for its famed beaches, there is much more to enjoy here.
An unexpected number museums and monuments, such as the 11th-century Alcazaba citadel and the Museu Picasso Malaga, restaurants and bars, offering fried fish dishes using the smaller fish (anchovies, mullet, mackerel…) and their typical gazpacho, will make you feel there is nothing more you can ask for.
If the city itself is a delight, you must not miss the rest of the province which lies on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea with 160 km of coastline and a multitude of beaches. In the interior, the charming "white villages" are worth a visit and there are over 15 protected natural spaces to discover.
