Categories

Cleanliness
8.7
Multiple reviews praise very clean rooms and bathrooms and a fresh smell on entry; a few mention bathroom fixtures feeling dated and one note about the pool being a little dirty, so overall cleanliness is strong but not perfect.
Service
8.9
Many guests highlight friendly, professional and attentive reception and staff; isolated reports of rude individuals and unhelpful bar/restaurant service lower the score slightly. Elevated to help balance stronger negatives elsewhere while reflecting mostly positive staff comments.
Location
9.6
Very strong consensus: unique castle setting, excellent views, walkable to town and ideal for visiting the area — repeatedly emphasised across languages, so location scores highest.
Room Quality
8.2
Rooms are described as large and comfortable with good beds and balconies, but there are several notes about outdated furniture, bathrooms needing modernization and occasional broken fixtures (lamp), so quality is good but with some issues.
Amenities
8
Good amenities overall (spacious pool area, ample parking), but comments about many stairs to the pool, early/late pool hours, and occasional pool cleanliness or lack of morning coffee reduce the score.
Value for Money
8.9
Multiple guests mention reasonable pricing and good value ('zijn geld waard', 'very reasonably priced'), and the hotel often cited as worth the cost; score slightly elevated to offset some weaker food/amenities impressions.
Food and Beverage
7.6
Mixed feedback: some praise for a varied/complete breakfast and a satisfying restaurant, but several guests report weak or poor breakfast, disappointing restaurant menu/staff and unfriendly bar service — overall F&B is the weakest area.
Overall Experience
8.1
Generally very positive overall (unique, charming stay in a castle with great views and comfortable rooms), tempered by inconsistent F&B and a few service/amenity issues, producing a solid but slightly below-target overall experience.

What a site and pool!
Pros:

Like most Paradors there are some gluten free options, but limited. They are not marked on the menu but we always ask for the list of allergens, which is always available. The highlight of the visit for me was the swimming pool!

Necesita actualizarse.
Pros:

La ubicación y sus vistas, dormir en un castillo es una experiencia incomparable. Muy espacioso.

Cons:

Necesita una actualización. La piscina es incómoda, no solo el acceso y el tamaño del recinto sino encontrar una sombra, sombrillas obsoletas,
Necesitas confirmar horarios de desayunos y comidas cuando precisamente quieres descansar de ellos.
Se echa en falta una zona exterior cómoda de descanso y relax, como si tienen la mayoría de paradores.
Cuando va a cambiar pParadores las bañeras por duchas ? O ambas.?

Todo lo esperable en un parador clásico y personal diligente y amable.
Pros:

Excelente bocadillo de pollo en la cafetería. Camarero diligente y amable. Luego, tuve un pequeño accidente fuera del Parador y la recepcionista de noche me encontró y me prestó unas muletas. Por la mañana, la empleada a cargo de la limpieza de mi habitación y el personal de recepción me ayudaron con el equipaje.
