파라도르 데 안테쿠에라(Parador de Antequera)

Bien localizado en una zona tranquilla, hemos llegado al hotel a las 09 de la mañana . Nos han dejado la habitación en el mismo momento.Cama confortable . Lo que me gustó menos fue la cena podría estar mejor.

Está cerca del centro, a unos 10 minutos andando. La piscina es grande y está muy bien cuidada. Habitación amplia y limpia. El desayuno deja mucho que desear en comparación con otros paradores, sobre todo teniendo en cuenta el precio del mismo, deberían mejorar ese servicio (cápsulas de café que echan de todos menos café, no reponen los platos, tampoco las razas ni los cuencos, no había botellas de agua...).

Rather slow service in the restaurant and bar,understaffed. Bath/shower could use a better showerhead

A modern parador, spotlessly clean with very friendly, helpful staff. We stayed here for 11 days ( in fact as I write this we are still here, leaving in two days time). It's SO peaceful and relaxing, very quiet and hushed. The grounds are good and there's a pool but it was too cold for me, and others who tried it gasped in shock when first entering the cold water. No matter, the position and mountain views are amazing, breakfast is superb too. However you need to boil the small kettle if you'd like a cup of tea at breakfast. Coffee is much more the Spanish way of life. Rooms are excellent, large, with a strong shower and nice bathroom. The parador is approx 5-10 mins from centre of town ...which is amazing. Lots to see. Great places to eat (try the bullring, arte de tapas and recuerdos bodega tapas near the parador. You can eat at the parador although it's a little more pricey than in town but if breakfast is anything to go by, the food will be amazing We came without a car and used local buses and trains to get around, visited Cordoba, and the local tour company Tour Group del Dolmenes, in the old square, run by Deborah (it's the only place in town you can buy postcards) and we went on two tours, the Dolmenes and el Torcal. Don't miss either! Antequera is a wonderful place and I hope that if you're reading this you enjoy it as much as I have.

I have had one of the worst dining experiences from any hotel I have stayed at for many, many years, (and we have travelled all over the world), and it has completely spoilt my entire holiday and cost us extra money which had not forecasted for. The Hotel was the Parador de Antequera, four star with an allegedly good solid reputation. I booked with Newmarket Holidays. Before I booked I made it quite clear that we were vegetarian and I was a diabetic. I was told that the menu had choices so it would not be a problem for my dietary requirements. The first evening meal on 1st May, 2024 was the day we arrived. We went down to dinner,(our allotted time was 8.30 pm) to be given a a bowl of gazpacho, flour based a thickening agent I would have thought which was truly revolting and not something a diabetic would choose to eat due to the high carbohydrate volume. The menu only had this a starter and I explained I was a diabetic but the waiting staff did not understand what I was explaining so I tried eating a little but it was not very nice. Then the main course was placed in front of me.... PORK ! Yet again i had to leave the table to explain I don't eat meat as we are vegetarian. This took some doing because i do not speak Spanish and most of the staff don't speak English so there was a bit of a confrontation between myself and the staff. because I was going to end up with no evening meal. I ended up being given a plain bowl of pasta. Disgusting for what is allegedly a 4 Star hotel don't you think? I refused it. These episodes disrupted my fellow diners on the table I was sitting on and, as I explained to Debbie on the phone this morning when I rang to complain, ended up alienating my sister and myself towards the end of our holiday as there were conversations about being given food that I can eat nearly every evening in the restaurant. Obviously they didn't pay all of that money to listen to that every evening. They actually spoke very little to us for the duration of the holiday, despite sharing a table with them. But with no Spanish speaking representative for your company, What was I expected to do? This happened nearly every evening and on the second evening meal i was offered tuna, to a vegetarian?? We started paying out for having dinner at lunchtime at the places we visited but at 12 -16 Euros for a nourishing meal, this started to eat away at our spring money, Sadly I have no receipts as they were mislaid before I returned to the UK. I gave the restaurant another try on 6th May. Oxtail stew with no alternative. The same old conversation took place and I was told by a very rude waitress who told me to sit down when i politely asked what I would be eating and that there was no vegetarian food in the kitchen and she offered me an omelette, I had to accept as I was very hungry but an omlette and nothing else in a so called 4 star restaurant?? Really ??? I was unable to eat any of the deserts as a lot of them had masses of sy

We have skidded in here on the final day of a three week tour of southern Spain. We have here found an excellent oasis of calm in which to reflect over our past 20 days and the adventures we have had. We love the character of the hotel being very contemporary and not old fashioned at all. Our room is of a good size and the bed huge. All decorated too in a modern style this is ideal for the seasoned traveller. The location of the hotel is so convenient for the old town and we were fortunate to be able to check in early and walk down for a mid afternoon bite to eat. It takes no time at all to walk into town and we were lucky to be able to view the local bullring and other attractions. With ample parking and what looks like an amazing menu as well as a well stocked bar, which we did partake of, this hotel is ideal. It too is only 60k from the airport so for us will be very convenient in the morning. We certainly will return.

Great location, clean, comfortable, convenient. Loads of car parking available, comfy bed, nice poolside cafe.

We stayed in this hotel as part of a bicycle tour in April 2024. It is a very modern building (especially considering the Parador brand), sitting on a hill overlooking the plain and mountains of Antequerra. Our room had a terrasse and was very spacious. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast had a great assortment of fruits, meats, bread, etc. You can order eggs to be made to your liking. The location is fairly convenient.
