I almost feel weird bringing some good news about the parador reservation system. Last year sometime, I made reservations for 2 paradors, the
Gibralfaro in Malaga and the
Castillo de Santa Catalina in Jaen , and on both occasions, I received a reply within 2 business days. The reply came in the form of a MS Word doc file, confirming the dates and the rate. Just like everybody else, I used the website to make the reservation.
Also, when I first made the reservation, I did not give a CC number. The confirmation email stated that the room was available on those dates but to guarantee the room, a CC number was required. I then called the number on Word file and gave them my CC number.
