This stay was our favourite in over a month of travelling Spain and Portugal. It is so unique! The castle is stunning and the vistas are incredible. The rooms are large and quiet and the restaurant was so delicious and extremely fairly priced. We had 3 starters, 2 mains a bottle of wine and two glasses of sherry for under 75€.
Cannot recommend the is stay enough!
Natural surroundings and historical ambiance were incredible. The staff was friendly and helpful. We are highly likely to return if we find ourselves in this part of the world again. A very unique hotel.
The first thing to say is 2 watch out for the signs up 2 the property there a little hit and miss we parked up in the first car park had 2 drag a heavy suitcase in the heat on cobbles very difficult there is a much higher car park with limited space but you can unload here then park the castle is really nice views outstanding golden eagles flying around i would say that a 2 night stay would be enough as not much to do apart from bird watching and walking the rooms are nice but bathroom we had needed updating if a little more was spent on this hotel it would be five star it only has 9 rooms and about 6 houses to rent we had breakfast and evening meal the breakfast is served in the hotel evening meal is in a local restaurant just yards from hotel meal service was slow only one member of staff trying to service 9 tables at once i did contact the hotel to inform them that my wife was a vegetarian they email back and said no problem they could cater but turned out they couldnt to be honest they didnt have a clue offered salad with ham on it ? REALLY they said sorry that they would get mushrooms for the next evening they didn't turn up and offered soup with egg bits floating around thats after been served chicken soup the meal was a
disaster to be completely honest don't let that put you off staying here as the property really amazing front-of-house staff upon checking out I think it would be the norm to ask if everything ok did we enjoy our stay didn't even bother
We were very impressed! The castle is unique. Lots of places to explore. And the views!!! Not great for anyone with any kind of mobility issues. Dinner was very good. Staff were friendly.
Beautiful location, excellent service with very friendly staff, super clean and perfect to relax and disconnect form everyday stress!

Beautiful castle
It was really nice. Beautiful location and very kind people. Just keep in mind that you’re going to carry your luggage up the hill to the reception, which is not that easy. Also , the rooms are quite old, but overall, we enjoyed our stay.
Beautiful castle in a very tranquil tiny and romantic village at the top of a hill. Perfect for a romantic getaway. Great friendly service not just at the castle, but the restaurant located just outside the castle run by the hotel. Super friendly staff.
It was so cool to stay in the castle. We strolled all over the town. We parked in the lower parking lot which is really just a flat gravel open area and then we walked all the way up. It was a fun adventure. The beds are big, it was clean and just what we needed. We only spent 1 night and it may be all that is needed unless you want to make it a hub. I had backpack but my friend had a wheely bag which was challenging on the cobblestones. It’s at the top of the hill but you can drive up almost to it to drop off luggage.
The castle hotel and small town inside the castle walls was perfect. I stayed here while visiting Gibraltar and wish I had more time at hotel to enjoy it and its surroundings. What a great place to stay.
Romantic rooms inside a very old Moorish castle, nicely decorated, and beautiful views of the lake and the mountains. Staff is helpful, but not super-friendly. Very quiet, romantic location in an old white village on the top of a hill. Narrow winding road to access, and walking to the hotel is up a steep hill with uneven surface. Lovely little restaurant with specialities from the region (boar is excellent), but presented poorly (for example the avocado salad consisted of roughly cut pieces of lettuce and oranges and half an avocado).Given that in Corona times we were very few guests, there was no reason for not showing a little bit of effort overall– otherwise this place would easily gain 5 stars as a romantic getaway. Breakfast was good, though!
Beautiful building... Well refurbed... Signage to reception could be improved.... Disappointed with cigarette burns on bedside cabinet.... Otherwise great stay at good value

Potential but not good at the moment
Set in a gorgeous castle on top of a hill this hotel has incredible potential. It's simply stunning to walk into an ancient monument knowing you are going to stay there.
The road approaching it is small and a little scary. About 15 minutes from the base of the hill and many hair pin bends.
We arrived as a wedding was in full swing. Staff were very busy and distracted. Sadly even when they weren't busy we didn't find them friendly. There was a language barrier however a smile can be given in any language and they all seem to have lost theirs.
Our room 104 was amazing with gorgeous views. Sadly it was next to the lift and another room where those guests came in very late from the wedding and were very noisy. We slept very badly. Thankfully the bed was very comfortable.
The hot water wasn't working when we tried to shower in the morning so we left without washing which was not pleasant. Breakfast is self service, there was quite a bit of food for us however it was not that fresh and nothing hot.
The decor had not been done sympathetically to the building. It's rather like a 1970's conference centre with horrid laminated wood. It's just sad to see this gorgeous building treated so badly.
Dette hotel har den absolutte bedste beliggenhed i det gamle fort. Super lækre værelser. De er spartanske, men passer i stilen til bygningen. Restauranten, som ligger 1 minuts gang fra hotellet, er lille, hyggelig og med god mad og service

It was our first stay at an old castle and we really enjoyed the hotel there. You have a wonderful view of the surrounding landscape. Early in the morning, the local deer gave us a little concert. The breakfast was very good. The hotel's furnishings are typically rustic and castle-like. It is possible to book an overnight stay with delicious half board.
Vi havde reserveret et værelse med to enkeltsenge og havde fået bekræftelse, men da vi ankom, fik vi at vide, at alt var fuldt booket, og vi kun kunne få dobbeltseng. Efter at have bedt receptionen om at tjekke igen, fik vi et hus, fremfor et værelse uden ekstra betaling. Morgenmaden var fin. Parkering sker nedenfor selve slottet, hvilket kan være svært at finde ud af. Personalet kan meget lidt engelsk.
