Overall Ratings & Reviews Parador De Jarandilla De La Vera

Beautifully restored castle with a stunning very comfortable terrace overlooking the dinning area courtyard.

Wonderful

Lovely historic building and relaxing pool area. Great breakfast!

Unique attractive historic building full of character. Unfortunately our room was oppressively hot and the air conditioning could not be switched on as the hotel considered the temperature outside to be too cold and they were using the central heating so we cold not have air conditioning! The hotel could not supply a fan and their suggested solution was simply to open the windows. We were only staying one night on a stop-over en route to Portugal and we did not use the restaurant facilities - the menu seemed expensive but may well have been good value for money

Noisy, Room very small, light in room broken, views from room was the parking car and dinning room unavailable as there was a wedding happening in the main square at the entrance. In my opinion doesn’t deserve the money.

Jarandilla is a nice place and The Parador is amazing

Beautiful parador in the mountains. A unique experience staying here. The most castle-y parador we stayed at in Spain

Wonderful place! Would go again!

BeautifuL place. Very clean and modern room and facilities although air conditioner did not cool,the room sufficiently.

As experienced in late March 2015 at a very good rate of €80 inc breakfast. Very nice location & surroundings - it was a palace for Charles I (of Spain). Excellent room with very comfortable twin beds (close together for intimacy, if you want it!) and beautiful bathroom. Bathroom let down by the shower as the glass screen on edge of bath was inadequate to prevent water on the floor. Machinery type "hum" in our room was occasionally slightly intrusive at night - couldn't find the source and it wasn't our air-con as it was off. Pleasant views from our window of the town's water park (could be noisy in summer, I suppose) and of the mountains (Sierra de Gredos). The food in the restaurant was disappointing. Portions were not generous and choice was very limited and didn't change over the 5 days we were there. We found eating in the town (5 to 10 minutes walk) was much better and cheaper - we would recommend Meson La Botica, particularly if you're really hungry, and you must try their Croquetas (the best we've had in a very long time). We borrowed their two mountain bikes for a day, but these proved to be in very poor condition with virtually no brakes (scary on some of the hills) and mine had a slipping rear wheel (weird, yes I know!). A pity, as we would have liked to have gone further.

We have friends in Jarandilla so this great parador was the ticket.

We arrived on the 5th June and Jarrandilla do Vale was Very easy to find I expected the countryside from Placencia to be mountainous,,,it was rolling green hills. It was also easy to leave next morning and travel to Trujillo [do not miss it] It's where the Pizarro brothers grew up and went to Peru and slaughterd the Incas. Driving is a breeze, hardly any traffic and roads which are in very good condition Road signs are large and easy to follow...unlike in the U.K.e.g. hidden behind trees, small and sometimes just a number. The Spanish are very friendly, so get a phrase book, it will help

El Parador es una auténtica maravilla. La cama, una de las mejores en las que he dormido, COMODÍSIMA. Buen servicio, buen restaurante. La única pega está en el cuarto de baño, al menos en la habitación que nos tocó. Aunque uno tenga sus preferencias, es normal encontrar una bañera en vez de un plato de ducha. Sin embargo, la bañera era de hidromasaje, por tanto más voluminosa, y el acceso a la misma era un tanto difícil. El acto en sí de ducharse, debido a la orientación de la alcachofa y la situación de la mampara, resultaba muy incómodo. Si se tiene alguna mínima dificultad con respecto a movilidad, recomiendo encarecidamente aclararlo en el momento de realizar la reserva para evitar una habitación con este tipo de bañera.

Apostar por paradores es apuesta segura, la única pega es que a veces se dispara el precio. Por ejemplo el desayuno buffet buenísimo pero 20€ persona. Yo creo que con 12€ ya sacan beneficio de sobra Tengo que felicitar al personal especialmente del restaurante. Super amable y con un servicio excelente. Mención especial a Nuria qué nos atendió de maravilla.

Solicité cama doble y buenas vistas de la habitación y ni una cosa ni la otra. En la planta más baja que hay y con vistas a los coches. Lo comuniqué antes de hacer uso de la habitación por si me la podían cambiar y me dijeron que no era posible. Por lo demás un lugar muy tranquilo, muy limpio y la comida del restaurante excelente.

Una experiencia muy buena

Estupendo y magnífico poder alojarte en un sitio tan emblemático y con tanta historia.
