Guest reviews
Exceptional

Liked: The location was perfect and the staff couldn't do enough for you.
Liked: Great location and an amazing experience!
Spectacular setting
Liked: The hotel sits in a spectacular setting atop a rock promontory overlooking the city of Jean. It adjoins a castle and is built like one. All staff were extremely efficient and friendly and the quality of food and wine for such a hotel were great.
Disliked: Everything was great so no complaints
Beautiful Parador in a lovely setting
Liked: Beautiful Parador fantastic scenery right next to the castle Staff were great parking right outside and safe and free
Disliked: 15 mins out of the city so used taxis don’t drive parking isn’t easy.The carpet on the main corridor was all crinkled up and worn we found it quite awkward and a bit dangerous and totally unnecessary when there is a beautiful floor underneath!!!
Lovely ambiance and location and nice staff. It was a shame the pool was not open and no real facilities for relaxing ou
Liked: Atmosphère and location on top of a hill was magnificent
Disliked: Very little outdoor seating and no umbrellas put up. Also Swimming pool closed. I feel it should have been made clear that poor is closed in October
