From the train station, the hotel was just a 15 minute easy walk while carrying to packs on our backs. I'd take a taxi if I had a roller bag because of the cobbles in the streets and walkways.

Lunch at the hotel was perhaps better than we've had in other paradors in Spanish Extremadura. The environment is quiet and tranquil. Rooms are variable but ours was in the former library and featured an anteroom that was beautifully painted (see photo). Staff is helpful and friendly: one of the staff actually offered to move our car to a more secure location. Did not view or use pool. Town is very walkable and full of shops offering the usual panalopy of trinkets. Dinner was served well, prepared well, and savory. Breakfast had many hot and cold options. Highly recommended.

As for ours, it was small and there was very little room to walk around the bed or places to sit your suitcases. The bed was very low to the ground and hard. Highlight was their breakfast buffet.

There, Miguel walked us through the city's highlights and made a dinner reservation for us. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a beautiful view outside. The complimentary breakfast was incredible! A mix of cold and made to order options that were all superb. I enjoyed local produce, including figs, pumpkin jam, bee pollen, yogurt, eggs, and bacon. The omelette was delicious, as were the pastries. Later in the day, we enjoyed a lovely lunch while sitting at their outdoor patio area. Such a perfect little place in a charming city! We can't wait to return and spend more time here.

It seems that the buses cannot park right by the hotel. If you wanted to walk into town, you had to go back out and walk another 10 minutes, and it was a bit confusing as to which way was town center. We gave up after going into several streets and decided it wasn't worth it at that hour. We had a buffet dinner tonight at the hotel and the food was decent. Hotel had popcorn near Reception area. No water heater for coffee/tea, no body lotion, I'm almost 6' tall and had to stretch to reach the hangers in the hallway closet! Room was spacious.

My husband had left his electric adapters at home and the hotel lent us a set and then directed us to a nearby store where my husband was able to make a purchase.

The dinner was fantastic, and breakfast was incredible, except for the coffee, which tasted like overly strong instant coffee, and the espresso came from pods, not real coffee. The sauna was enjoyable, but you need to book it, and it closes early. In the morning, the sun shines so bright in there that I wasn't prepared for my eyes to be blasted. Also, there was no soap in the shower up where the sauna is located, no toilet or water to drink. Despite these little things, the breakfast was freaking amazing, and the dinner was also excellent! Beatriz, our server, was amazing. However, when I brought up the issue with the noisy a/c and the lack of sleep it caused, there was no apology or effort to remedy the situation. Nevertheless, the place offers a wide array of gluten-free and vegan options on their menu, making it a top-notch spot for food enthusiasts.

They have done a very good job of combining old and new. We booked a "Design Suite" for the night. There was a 35 euro charge for our two dogs. They supplied beds and bowls. Reception had changed our room to a ground floor because of our dogs, which made it easier to take them out at night and in the morning. The beds were size appropriate for each of our dogs. The bed was very comfortable with nice linens. There were some expensive pieces in the room, like the Dolce & Gabbana chair. However, a pet peeve of mine is when hotel room design does not take into account how people will actually use the room. With our room, there was a large table that blocked outlets so I had to move the table to charge my phone. There should have either been a smaller bed side table or moved the outlets higher. The bathroom was very nice. Great shower and a Japanese toilet! The gardens and grounds are stunning. The gardens have numerous fruit trees that were laden with citrus and they face a vineyard. Breakfast was stellar. There was a selection of cakes, breads, fruit (really great selection), cheese, yogurt, meats, etc. It is a very large property and it is clear why they host more than 40 weddings per year. The staff was friendly and helpful. They offered a tour of the grounds, as well as a wine tasting. A word of warning - there is a pig farm nearby and it smelled very farmy when we arrived.
