I had a very bad experience at hotel san zoilo…read more I was a pilgrim on the camino de Santiago and spend a night there. I was using a luggage service that moves my luggage from town to town as I walk. When the service came to pick up my luggage (I had already left and started walking) they refused to let my luggage go because there was a problem with the card I had used on booking. com to make the booking they said! Like that's a reason to "steal" the luggage! I walked for 6 hours and I arrive at another tiny town and my luggage is not here. I call them, I gave them a new card for the bill and then they refused to send the luggage at their own expense to my current location! This is a multi-million dollar company!. They got paid and they are refusing to provide even basic customer service. They definitely do not deserve to have a 4 star rating!. And upon further investigation the hotel room charge had gone through only the $12 breakfast did not go through!! You keep someone's luggage for $12? which i paid when they brought it to my attention A lot of the staff does not speak English either. My refrigerator in the room was not working and they charge me 2.50 for a piece of bread that I didn't Even ask for during dinner and which was starting to go stale

Good place for a great evening with friends and family. Food and wine selection is greatread more

Gayle and I returned to Fuente De almost 11 years after our last visit. During our May stay we…read moretook the nearby Teleferic up the mountain (in 4 minutes) and walked down to the Parador via a trail that took about 4 hours to complete. That included some winter-like weather on top, more ups than we expected, and light rain during most of the last half. About a third of the way down is the Hotel Áliva, of which Gayle and I stopped for coffee and a snack. Back in 2011, we decided not to take this trail as we arrived at Fuente De on a whim and weren't properly outfitted for a long hike. Coming back, we sort of expected a idyllic pastural walk, but that didn't quite turn out to be the case. Yet, we were happy we did it, really enjoyed the scenery, appreciated some map help by a French couple (who were really prepared), and felt really accomplished at the end. And we stayed 3 nights at the Parador de Fuente De. We drove in from Baiona (Atlantic Coast) on Day 1, took the Teleferic Hike on Day 2, and enjoyed a tour over mountain roads to the Cares Gorge on Day 3. And after that, we were off to San Sebastian. In between were a couple trips to Potes, an inspirational visit to the Monastery of Santo Toribio de Liébana, and some local village and culinary exploration. The Parador? Marvelous! is huge mountain hotel, of which we had a really nice and comfortable room with a sitting room view (see picture). There are several spacious common areas, a inviting bar, and a nice restaurant. We weren't the only ones here, as the hotel seemed popular with the British motorcycle touring group. These folks were having a great time, and all we needed to do was hang out in the bar or linger in the breakfast room (which had a nice spread). The stunning outdoor and regional culture options here seemed endless and of we course just scratched the surface. I just hope we don't have to wait 11 years to come back again.

The hotel's history is long and complex, spanning about nine hundred years, with highlights including a stint as the Royal Cemetery and a concentration camp during the Spanish Civil War. There are plaques throughout the hotel, as is appropriate for a major historical landmark. My room was large, well-appointed, came with chocolate and looked out over a beautiful garden maze. The restaurant is highly regarded and looks like something out of Beauty and the Beast, although I found the food somewhat oversalted. Breakfast is appropriately high quality and offers a huge range of options. Including kiwi juice. I've never been offered kiwi juice before. The bar is located in a spacious room with massively high barrel-vaulted ceilings, and after a drink or two you can go across the hall and sit in almost perfect isolation in the former cloiser refectory under a truly stunning 16th century carved ceiling. There was a wedding going on while I was there. It is a dream location for such an event and the wedding party seemed to be having a fantastic time. Returning for more than a one-night stay will be a goal of mine!

Very nice Hotel, bridges the gap between being antique and comfortable very well. Although some of…read morethe installations could be replaced by now to a more modern standard, it is still a good place to stay. One of the most interesting and historical Hotels I've seen so far. Breakfast is fabulous.

Our big regret was not completing the 4+ hour hike down, but in fairness we hadn't packed enough water, snacks, and layers. If we ever come back, we'll stay at the Parador and this area a little more justice. It was now 3 PM and in Spain that means that it was Lunch time. We were now in Potes and one Tour book (Northern Spain Handbook by Footprint) recommended Casa Cayo. It was a fine choice. We were seated by the window and the views of the river and the nearby peaks were very pretty. The place very lively, cheerful, sunny, and a great place to hang out and soak up the local ambiance. We also had a great server who took very good care of us. We both enjoyed one of the local stews and shared over a bottle of nice wine. Flan and coffee (solo for me, con leche for Gayle) finished off a nice meal and a fun hiking portion of our day.
