Parador de Melilla

The staff are fantastic. Views are amazing (totally worth the walk up the hill!). Spacious room and bathroom with nice balcony. Decent breakfast.

The swimming pool is nice but no longer looks anything like the photos on Booking.com. The lawn that you see in the photos is all over-grown and not useable. Suggest that the old photos are removed and more recent ones added. Pool opening times are limited. 12h30-14h30 and 16h30-18h30 in July and August, and just 16h30-18h30 in June and September. This information is available on the hotel's website but is not provided by Booking.com. It is a nice, shaded pool area for a refreshing dip at the end of the day but the information and photos on Booking.com should really be more accurate.

This is the second time I have visited Melilla. Before that I didn't have the opportunity to stay at the Parador De Melilla, I stayed at another hotel. But I kept walking and walking up the hill and into the grounds of the Parador De Melilla to see the magnificent view of the city itself, the port and the sea. A few years later, I decided to visit Melilla again. This time I stayed at the Parador De Melilla hotel. When I made my booking, I asked to be accommodated on the top floor. Unfortunately, I was accommodated on the 3rd floor out of 6. The view from the window and the balcony was stunning. The panoramic view of the city and the nearby park was excellent. Partial view of the port and the sea. The room is spacious. The bathroom is large. There is a small fridge. One slight drawback might be that the staff don't speak English at all or only partially, so for non-Spanish speakers this could be a personal disaster. The restaurant has an „A LA CARTE“ catering system and the menu is only in Spanish, so it was a bit of a vacuum from the start, as I didn't even know how to ask for food or get a cup of tea at breakfast. The same situation with not knowing the language happened during dinner. All sorts of translation apps on my phone came to the rescue. So the very next day I went to breakfast with a small baggage of Spanish words: omelette – „TORTILLA“, water – „AGUA“, and at dinner I asked for fish – „PESCADO“, vanilla ice-cream – „HELADO DE VAINILLA“, orange juice – „ZUMO DE NARANJA“, and what is most important, I was served everything and it was all delicious. Thank you to the wonderful hotel staff.

excellent breakfast and dinner. staff were helpful. Nice old fashioned feel to the place. Views were spectacular, Close to the historic sights. Nice ambiance.

Bit of a slog up the hill from the centre but the views are worth it in my opinion. No price list for mini bar uless you have a smart phone with code reader- a bit weird for a traditional hotel!

To reach the hotel you need to climb a big hill - but in return you get amazing view from balconies! Very spacious room, nicely furnished. Staff was was polite & professional. Wifi was OK, as well as food.

One floor tile was broken and bathroom radiator was a bit dirty, but nothing else.

This is the best hotel in Melilla! Spacious rooms, amazing view from my balcony, awesome pool and pool area to sunbathe in, and within walking distance to the centre. Staff at reception and in the restaurant were super nice and friendly. I'll stay here again if I'm back in the city.

Service was excellent. Room was big and clean. Very happy with my choice. I liked the old charm of the period furniture and decor. My style.

The walk up the hill was tough, but could have taken a taxi.

Breakfast really good. Views from room balcony amazing. Staff friendly and helpful.

Tea/coffee tray in room would be a bonus Walk up hill to hotel but worth it

location, design

the hotel is bit due to a refresh. some minor glitches, some facilities would really benefit from a refresh due to a natural wear out.

We really enjoid the view, breakfast, the pool. The staff was very friendly.

Everything was very good.

Parking spot in the shade, swimming pool, balcony with awesome views, small fridge.

Wifi wasn't very good.
