Pros:

A truly breathtaking experience! Incredible stay at the Parador de Cardona. The hotel is absolutely stunning, both inside and out every detail of the decor has been carefully considered. We dined in the restaurant and the food was beautiful, matched by excellent service. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great experience with breath taking views.

Una escapada relaxant amb bons àpats.
Pros:

El sopar i l'esmorzar estaven deliciosos. Realment vam gaudir-ho molt.

Cons:

Alguns dels passadissos que van cap a les habitacions a la setena planta necessiten una mica de neteja.

Pros:

Great shower, excellent bed, nice castle and views. Good brekky.

Cons:

Noisy, creaking elevators. Thyssen Krupp are not the ones to have chosen guys! Ride comfort is really lousy. And no ventilation in bathroom.

Memorable visit, good value
Pros:

Impressive castle with nice views.
Clean room, large beds. Comfortable pillows, good quality towels.
Good service at dinner.

Cons:

Expensive breakfast.
Would also prefer proper duvet covers rather than just sheets around the duvet, as the duvet gets exposed which is quite unhygienic as I doubt they are washed after each guest.
