The room was adequate, but without a view. The location of the Paradore was up a long steep, very narrow winding road with no parking at the Parador which meant dropping off the luggage. and parking some 15 minutes away. And then when leaving walking to get the car to return to the Parador for luggage.

The menu was disappointing with few choices and the dining room was very noisy.

I spent two nights in this property and experienced two bedrooms, both of them large, luminous and comfortable. The terrace included in the second one was as large as a room... Special mention for the pleasant staff, I am deeply grateful to Juana for help.

The breakfast, twenty-one euros, remains the disappointing point. A lot of useless offers and, in contrast, not enough vegetable or bread.

Lovely rooms in an historic building right in the old town of Arcos. Staff were super helpful. The views from the restaurant and the terrace are fantastic.

When we travelled there was major construction work going on in the square outside the hotel. Not at all the hotel's fault, of course, but it made parking more complicated than it would otherwise be and also caused a bit of noise. Once that's finished, I'm sure it'll all be back to normal and much quieter.

The location is rhetorical main attraction staying at this parador.

We arrived by car and found getting to the property difficult to drop off the luggage. As well as driving back down to park. In the day we left thankfully no rain walking 10mins downhill to car park.

The corner room we booked had the most spectacular view from our private terrace! Breakfast is very generously proportioned, and we appreciated the option to have it in the room (which was large and comfortable). The Parador itself is a charming small boutique hotel—there’s a beautifully tiled courtyard with a small fountain and a well, and of course the wonderful views from the restaurant terrace. We loved our stay and would certainly book again!

Spectacular views

Very difficult to get to. There was no parking or valet parking so once you had driven to the top through very narrow streets and off loaded your luggage, you had to drive back down again! Park in an underground parking and then wait for a bus to take you back up the hill! This whole procedure took another hour and had to be repeated the following morning when we checked out!!!

Spectacular location perched on top of a ridge upon which the rest of the historic town spills in either direction. Our room had a spacious balcony which afforded panoramic views over the mostly agricultural rolling countryside. Beautifully restored historic building, plentiful windows, gracious hallways and common areas indoors and out. Quiet rooms. Fabulous regional culinary offerings at breakfast and dinner. Extremely helpful and friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Beautiful setting - hotel itself, patio with view of countryside. Everyone on staff were helpful and pleasant. Food and wines were great.

Not within the control of the hotel, the piazza/square in front is being completely reconstructed and our view from room was onto contrcution site.

Fantastic view, a shame the square was under going serious renovation work. The receptionist was absolutely fantastic in helping arrange two trips out.

The building work which meant we had to pay to upgrade our room for peace and quiet

The hotel is all about the location and views out over village or valley. Interesting small old-town - very Spanish. Room was good size and recently renovated. Note! Although built in old-style this is not one of the ancient Parador establishments that is often expected and does miss a bit of atmosphere that comes with the quirky old buildings they are often located in.

Was missing a decent bar to use in the evening. Not usually an issue when in Spain but Arcos is a small place and doesnt offer a significant range of evening options.
