My wife and I stayed for 1 week in September 2011. It was our first experience of a Parador and we were very impressed. The decor of the hotel was stunning, and our room elegant, yet welcoming. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and especially patient with my attempts to speak Spanish. We’d certainly recommend the breakfast – great variety.
The location was a little remote, but this worked in it’s favour. We found 1 or 2 great restaurants nearby, but perhaps a few more would help (but not in the Commercial Centre).
On the down side, the beach wasn’t the greatest, and seemed like a barren waste in places. Not the fault of the Parador, I know, but perhaps some influence could be applied?
Overall though, a great experience, and one we’d repeat.

We stayed at this hotel in September 2011 and had such a lovely time. The room was large, very clean and incredibly comfortable. The staff were on hand to help and the reception staff made life very easy for us including printing of maps and directions to our favourite store El Corte Ingles just outside of Almeria. It is the second year we had stayed and this year was every bit as good as in 2010. If you make a reservation, make sure you stay for the breakfast – the choice is amazing including churros and Spanish omelette.

Located on the sea front in easy reach of local town facilities and close to some great sea front restaurants and uncrowded beaches.

Very clean room and, once we got the air conditioning working …. a bit fiddly, very comfortable.

Balcony / Terrace led out via ‘private’ garden to beaches.

Great restaurant with friendly service.

Only downside was that it was a bit ‘cut off’ and not easy to explore further afield.

This very minor crititcism apart, a very good Parador.

Spent 2 nights here last week. Lovely modern hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. Room was bright and had view straight out to sea. Restaurant excellent as you would expect from a Parador – I’m addicted to the baby broad bean starter and will have to start growing them myself!

We had been travelling through Spain for a few days and this hotel was the best we had stayed in. The room was large and comfortable with a terrace that looked across at the sea. It was lovely and quiet. We had dinner and breakfast at the hotel and both meals were extremely good. If you are over 55 then why not book “dias de oro” – a special discount for seniors.

Very happy with my stay here. We actually were upgraded to a higher level room than I had booked. Very relaxing, clean and spacious. Breakfast on the terrace was great. I would definitely recommend it.

I am a well established fan of the Paradores in Spain and have stayed in atleast 50% of them. They are generally run well apart from a few local difficulties of customer service. One thing that I always avoid is eating in the Paradors. The quality and choice is poor which is a shame as dinning in such a nice ambiance could enhance the pleasure.

The reception at Mojacar was welcoming and friendly the staff lacked local knowledge of resturants etc, which are nainly situated on the same road. They however did check on the internet and were extremely helpful, rooms were large, clean & comfortably furnished. The bar & the breakfast staff were aloof and rather be somewhere else. All in all as far as the special offers are there I will stay there & recommend others.

Mojacar is the 7th Parador we have stayed in and once again we were delighted with the service, standard of the rooms and the value for money. Really excellent. We will continue to recommend the Pardores to all our friends
