“Good because of the restaurant nearby - best duck ever!!!”
Great location for hiking right on-site. A super delicious restaurant Tajinaste Del Refugio next door—the best duck I’ve ever had. Check-in was hassle-free using the code, making it very easy to handle. There’s a vending machine near the pool where you can buy drinks (sodas, alcohol, etc.) with a card.

It will be amazing increasing the vegan options (salty&sweet) in the menu considering the type of hotel. Despite that everything has been wonderful and the staff was professional and helpful!

Cute refuge up in the mountain. Cozy atmosphere, beautiful lounge with fireplace, leather seatings, library and free use of kettle for tea. Our room was nice with very good comfy bed. Beautiful Terrace, nice little swimming pool (which we both havent used as Dec weather was wintery and chilly). Free easy parking on site.Loved the fact there was also a small french style restaurant on site. Highly recommended.

“Peaceful hotel ideal for hiking”
Fantastic location for hiking trails with breathtaking views. The room was comfortable, clean with a decent hot shower which was welcome after a day on the trails. The communal area with free tea and coffee all day is a lovely touch and ideal place to read and take in the views. I also loved the easy to use vending machine for snacks and beer/wine. The food in the restaurant is also excellent so make sure to book a table for dinner.

“Almost perfect mountain retreat”
First of all thanks for the weekend, we realy enjoyed the property and the area. Then, the weather was not the best, foggy, cold, rainy,... (Nothing to blame for the property) But we missed that they started the chimney. But for that everything else was perfect. Note: maybe puffy bed covers (ikea style) would have made the bed more comfortable? Appart from that all perfect. ALSO we would like to highlight the dinner, omg

“Lovely place to stay, no complaints”
Great location. Alpine lodge vibe made it feel cosy. Breakfast was basic but no complaints, fresh scrambled egg made to order. Restaurant was fine for evening meal, but quite rich. You can go to the restaurant at Parador for a dinner with a view over the mountains.
