Overall Ratings & Reviews Sofraga Palacio

Beautiful property. Super convenient for a visit. Great place for a quick visit or multiple day stay.

Gorgeous property in a perfect setting.

Beautiful hotel right in historical center with excellent restaurant

We loved it! Absolutely beautiful and very friendly helpful staff! If ever in Avila I highly recommend.

nice roomy hotel with great communal areas. Well appointed en-suite shower room. Nice views across the entrance garden. Good sized bedroom. Clean and comfortable. Ideal location within the walls.

Excellent, will definitely stay here again.

Very clean, beautiful renovation

Wonderful, I recommend!

The staff were wonderful, room was beautiful and the bed most comfortable. Because the city was making repairs on the wall that is a shared wall with the hotel, be sure to ask about a room that is further away. Not sure how long the repairs will continue through no fault of the hotel. All in all it is a lovely hotel with a great location. And very professional staff. A good stay in Avila!

This Property is amazing! The hotels is within the walled city of Avila, the best preserved early middle age fortress in the world. The walls encircle an area of 33 hectares and contains a functional city. The Sofraga Palacio hotel has been built inside a palace begun in the 1500's and upgraded in the 1800's. They have built modern, tasteful accommodations within the original walls. They left exposed whatever walls and beams they could while not compromising the modern hotel. The way they abruptly transition between the two totally works. Beware; the hotel gives a 10% discount coupon for their restaurant BUT if you sit in the portion of the restaurant OUTSIDE the hotel’s exterior wall, you will not get the discount. The waitress was not attentive. It took us 2 hours to order our food and have it served. The food was very good… the service was… not.

Fantastic hotel in a great location ,The staff in all roles were first class and always happy to help.Taxi from the train station was approx 7 euros .good places to eat or drink close by .Through th City Gate across the road is a nice Taberna,if you go right outside of the walls next door to the ticket office for the wall walk is a Bodeguita ,and a ceveceria,oppositie Cafe Postes is good ....one to avoid is the hostel cafe ( bad experience )

This is (so far) the best place we have stayed in Spain. It is well situated just inside the city wall (which actually forms one of its walls) with excellent staff, several eating options and a pleasant outlook. Our room was large and well furnished and in Avila everything is in walking distance. We liked the hotel so much we stayed another night

I love this hotel, can’t wait to be back. Everything is perfect

Sofraga is a very well-appointed hotel. The staff and service were great! The room was clean, Restaurant served great food. There is parking onsite for a fee. Great location in Avila, right by the wall. My husband wishes he can stay longer and just be at the hotel. He considers Sofraga as one of his favorite hotel for its service, staff and room.

The building and grounds are beautifully maintained. Parts of the city wall are incorporated into the building. The old beams and brick and stonework inside makes it feel like being transported back in time except it still has the elegance and comfort of modern times. The staff was amazing. They made sure we had everything we needed. When my mother wasn’t feeling well, they came to the room to check on her and offered to get her access to a pharmacy. They gave her extra water and even checked the room temperature to make sure she was comfortable. Very caring and professional.

Beautiful hotel with an excellent location

Lovey building and comfortable rooms. Staff are friendly and helpful

Fantastic location and rooms are very comfy. The staff were all very friendly and spoke English well. We had a great time in Avila and the fact that this is right at the castle gate and forms part of the castle wall makes this place so special as well as easy to get to. Parking is secure and easy too.

Great place to stay. Breakfast was something like €15 each which was a good value. It was not my first time staying and I would go back if in the area.

This hotel is very well presented. The decor is lovely and the way they have fest the rooms is very impressive with exposed walls and roof beams. Not very many of the staff speak fluent English but they try hard and the reception always has a fluent English speaker. Anyway it was good for me to practice my Spanish.
