古城体験できる貴重なホテル
Pros:

古城のホテルに泊まった事が初めてで感動しました。貴重な体験でした。泊まる前は少し料金が高いかねと思いましたが、ロケーションやホテルの外観を見た時に価格以上の価値観を感じました。

Cons:

スペインの他のホテルと一緒で朝食は質素ででした。

Disappointing and expensive. Cold wet and windy ...unhappy stay in a beautiful castle.
Pros:

An extremely expensive treat to stay here plus another Euros 21 to park the car overnight.

Cons:

Staff do not speak or understand English and we believe that they are "in a job for life" as Paradors are State owned and managed.There was no Resturant whihc is highly unusual for Paradoprs (we have stayed in many of them in the past) AND the Resturants in Old Town Hondarribia had also closed down permanently.

We attempted to find something to eat at dinner-time in the attached Caffeteria but there was nothing much available as it is also "open to the public" who wander around as in a Museum.

Not our best Paradores experience
Pros:

Classic historic building conversion in centre of old town. Comprehensive breakfast selection typical of Paradores

Cons:

Absence of a restaurant. Only two options open in the old town on a Sunday night. We must have chosen the poorest as all dishes bar the salad were not good.

Reception staff excellent
Pros:

Loved staying here. There was a very slight complication which receptionist Raphael dealt with expertly and graciously. It could not have been attended to any more efficiently.
I heartily recommend this lovely place and it’s excellent staff. Everybody is helpful and pleasant, making our stay very enjoyable.
