Hotel El Castillo enjoys a very nice location in Ponferrada, very close to the famous Templars Castle. The room was quite dated but fairly spacious and with a comfortable bed. The bathroom was again quite big and fairly well equipped. The service at check in was kind even though a bit slow. Unfortunately, what lowers materially the rating of the hotel is the breakfast: it is what is offered in a low-level hostal, not in an establishment that sells itself as a 3-star hotel. Recommended for the room and location but not for any kind of food.
Great location, and decent room, but atrocious service from several staff members who made this a memorable experience…in the wrong way.
The attention was right and the place is near the castle, so it makes it a very good position
I booked this room because it said there is air conditioning. They shut it off on October 1. My room has a sweltering and she said the temperature comes from the wall. If you are looking for air conditioning after October 1, don’t stay here. Edit: I just called the front desk to let them know how hot it is. She said her boss allowed them to turn the air conditioning on. So I’m trying to cool the room now.
Affordable, clean rooms, near the middle of the old town.
