Service was very poor at breakfast even though there was only a handful of guests in the dining room. I had to ask for coffee three times and the ratatouille we both ordered never arrived!! Given the problem with the coffee It wasn’t worth the hassle to ask for the ratatouille!!
The parador was just beautiful- very comfortable room. A lovely ambiance in the bar with a magnificent view. Breakfast was great.

United Kingdom11 Reviews“A beautiful hotel but I feel the staff don’t live up to the reputation and cost of the Parafor name 🫤”Slightly spoiled by a very rude lady at breakfast who I assume is the dinning room manager… who accused us of rather loudly of not paying for breakfast! Other than that the staff were ‘ok’.. nothing to note really.
Fabulous hotel! Lovely room with the most amazing views!

The location is rhetorical main attraction staying at this parador.

United Kingdom22 Reviews4 helpful votes“Wonderful views, timeless charm, but a bit of a hike with luggage”It was not easy to get to if you have walking difficulties. Had I realised at the time I booked I would not have booked a non-refundable room! We had to leave our car in a car park at the bottom of the town and walk up hill for 15 mins with our luggage. Apparently there is a bus but the pdf we were sent with the times was illegible. The carpark outside the hotel is fenced off and being reconstructed. From reading other reviews it’s been out of use for a while. It is in the hands of the local council and outside of the control of the hotel. The breakfast was not up to the same standard as other Parador hotels we have stayed in. The fresh fruit was limited, and going off. The pineapple was brown where it had gone bad, as were the grapes. The service at breakfast was poor, we were never asked if we wanted any cooked breakfast.
The location was stunning and dramatic. The views are wonderful and the hotel has a timeless charm. We had a nice evening meal in the restaurant.

Canada7 ReviewsVery GoodThe menu was disappointing with few choices and the dining room was very noisy.
The room was adequate, but without a view. The location of the Paradore was up a long steep, very narrow winding road with no parking at the Parador which meant dropping off the luggage. and parking some 15 minutes away. And then when leaving walking to get the car to return to the Parador for luggage.

I spent two nights in this property and experienced two bedrooms, both of them large, luminous and comfortable. The terrace included in the second one was as large as a room... Special mention for the pleasant staff, I am deeply grateful to Juana for help.
