Beautiful hotel and well located in Ribera del Duero
Pros:

Everything was phenomenal and I only wish I had more time to stay here. The public space was beautiful and the way they were able to preserve the character while still feeling authentic was beautifully done. The rooms were comfy and well stocked and the restaurants were all great! The staff was very helpful (and very English friendly if needed) and we felt extremely welcome. The Thermal Spa was fantastic and I would go back just to enjoy relaxing there with all the different jets and pools.

Highly disappointed
Pros:

I really did not want to give this hotel a negative review but we encountered major issues which substantially impacted our stay.
The building is impressive & beautiful, the rooms are comfortable and modern, the spa pool is great!
The valets & reception staff were charming and efficient.
The welcome in the Gastrobar by an older, waistcoated barman was surly and unhelpful. Things improved when the younger, friendlier waiters arrived.
Firstly, the aircon in our room was inefficient. Had the weather been warmer I would have complained.
Worst of all was that I discovered there was no mattress protector on the bed, just one thin sheet, and the mattress was VERY stained with what looked very much like urine!
Apologies were made, protector provided and sheets changed. However, the dirty mattress and lack of a washable protector was unavoidable and inexcusable. I trust (and pay) 5 star hotels such as this to maintain high standards of cleanliness. Discounts & apologies are appreciated but do not make up for what should be taken for granted - basic cleanliness.
Dinner in the a la carte restaurant was, in our opinion, not up to standard. The starter was inedible. The manager was unfriendly and unhelpful. Miguel saved our evening with his smile and service.
The highlight of our stay was dinner in “Converso” where the service, food & wines were wonderful. Thank you Juan Jose and the great sommelier.
If you can afford to spend a little more I would recommend staying 20 minutes away at the luxurious “Abadia Retuerta” where we have encountered no such issues in the past.

Wonderful hotel - must visit
Pros:

A truly wonderfull hotel with very helpful staff. We arrived a few hours early and was lucky enough, that the cleaning team could set our room up in just 10 minutes. That's what you call a nice welcome. Other than that the hotel is beautiful.

Perfection
Pros:

Beautiful monastery, an excellent hotel a great stay. Since arriving you are treated as a royalty family. Unique menu at the restaurant with produce from their garden; service at the restaurant was one of the best if not the best of our years of travel. A suggestion: coffee at a 5 stars hotel shall be made to order, not using a coffee machine. Thank you for everything.
