The private parking place is best indicated for small cars, the way up to the parking is very narrow and the parking slots are best suitable for small/ medium cars.

can’t get a better location in this town/ area

Stayed in October 2022

The only negative was location. Without a car it was about a 40-50 euro taxi ride to a bigger town such as San Sebastian or St. Jean de Luz.

Absolutely the loveliest accommodations we have had in Spain, as we have traveled all around the country. The staff went out of their way to assist whether we needed an early breakfast, restaurant recommendations, a taxi, or help arranging laundry services. We had a magical view of the river from our window seat in the very spacious junior suite. The sunrise was incredible. I cannot say enough positive things about this parador.

The staff. Brilliant. Location, exceptional. Rooms, fabulous. Takes some getting to but once there you realise it was well worth it. Walkable into town.

Very expensive (£270 for the room) which was not good value for money. The charge of Euro 18 for on site parking added insult to injury!

Lovely room, overlooking the town and estuary.

Authentic historic castle in a great area

Stayed in August 2022

The hotel is tricky to drive to (typical for hotels in the center of medieval cities). Navigating the narrow streets and restricted zones is a bit of a challenge. Parking is very limited and costs 15 euros a night. If no spaces are available you can drop off your luggage at the hotel, and then drive down to the bottom of the hill where parking is free.

The building is amazing and the rooms were very comfortable, Breakfast was excellent, eating outside in the courtyard. Staff were very accommodating and helpful with any questions we had.

Our whole experience was excellent but a specific mention must go to all the staff who were so attentive, which made our stay even more enjoyable.

parking a bit of a challenge but doable

amazing facility and location

Stayed in July 2022

We would appreciate, if, not a room service, rich mini bar for not to starve. Because everywhere closes very early around the hotel.

The view, the history of the place, authenticity, location is great. For such a great place, the services can be improved for a more memorable stay. Any way I can never stay another place in my visits to Hondarribia.

breakfast was just ok and we were not told about options for hot food for breakfast

the heritage and feel of the building.

Stayed in July 2022

The tea and coffee making facilities could have been more extensive.

Excellent location and historic nature of the building. Helpful staff.

Could hear people coming back late at night. Also some people would leave their windows open when leaving their rooms which caused their doors to slam shut, with everyone on the floor hearing it.

Loved learning about the history and staying in a castle! the courtyard is absolutely beautiful to have breakfast in and drinks at sunset on the terrace was breathtaking! perfectly located for old town and a short walk from all the restaurants and beach in town!

A little disappointing that the outside terrace closed at 10pm.

Beautiful building full of character and history in a great location. Comfy beds, great showers.

Luxurious hotel in a distinctive unique historic building. Great views from the high point in the old town. Helpful staff. Everything is top class and there is a lovely buffet breakfast with fantastic basque cake too. Can easily reach San Sebastian by bus.

Wonderful old building. Fabulous large room - great breakfast. Easy to walk to great restaurants down the hill.

Stayed in June 2022

Not much! Would be nice to have had a double rather than two single beds but maybe we forgot to ask for this! Bit of a walk to the beach but absolutely worth it, gorgeous place to swim!

Great fun staying in a fort, lovely old town and wonderful views from our room

Stayed in July 2022

Nothing not to like.

We had the suite with enclosed balcony, absolutely amazing views and what great room. Bonus was a weekend of medieval festivities right outside the front door! 2nd weekend in June. Needs checking for future years.
