Beautiful location and very quiet

“Picturesque spot that will look after you like family from start to end”

The property is a beautifully converted 11th century building, the rooms are large and comfortable, and the team made me feel very much at home from the moment I arrived. With a delicious restaurant and wine cellar downstairs, it really is the perfect spot.

“Characterful accommodation in a lovely small town but expensive.”

Beautiful building full of character with friendly owner who takes great pride in the house which her family have owned since the fifteenth century . Nice supper cooked for us.

“Exceptional.”

Beautiful historical building full of charm with wonderful internal and external architecture. The rooms were restored in keeping with medieval style property. Wonderful wine cellar. Perfect location for exploring Penaranda de Dureo. Dates back to I think circa 11th century. Charming hostess Mamen. Made us very welcome.

Amazing mediaeval town and the hotel is part of it. The hostess is welcoming and enhanced our stay. It was memorable

Building with a long history.

The suckling lamb was outstanding and the breakfast was good

“Nice place but needs to live up to its status as a 'posada real' in low-season.”

The posada is an old synagoge and nicely done up on the inside. To stay in an old place like that has something to it, it's atmospheric. The room is modern, good bed, good bathroom, nice view over the old cobble stone street. My bicycle was safely parked inside a building opposite the posada, Mamen was a very friendly host.

“brilliant”

historic property converted to hotel with great style

The fact that there was no one permanently on site and that we were frequently locked out of our room because of a faulty ' key' system. This led to a lot of stress.

“Good overnight stop Dog friendly”

Fresh orange juice would have been nice at breakfast

In the old part of town, quaint

“Well-modernised ancient building in beautiful village”

Beautiful, quiet, welcoming, relaxed. Originally a medieval synagogue. Well-converted. In same family for an extraordinarily long time.

“very quiet town. only one restaurant open. we were the only people there!”

very traditional property bathroom very clean, good shower

“An exceptional experience - we will return each time we drive from France to the south of Spain!”

A magical stay in a perfectly restored building dating from 1219, once a synagogue. Just below a fortress and castle which was renovated in the 15th century. Superb wines and delicious food, and must mention the extraordinary owner who welcomed us, Mamen. Stepping back in time but with all the modern comforts. Not to be missed!
