We were staying there because one of our family was going there to work for a year in a school. We hadn't heard of Aranjuez before going but decided to base ourselves there as we were there to help them get set up. We were very pleasantly surprised as the town is just lovely. Off the main tourist track but has lots of lovely shops and restaurants and beautiful parks and historic sites to visit. All within walking distance of the apartment we were staying in. The town also has good public transport with rail links to the centre of Madrid. Train station was about 15 minutes walk from where we were staying. The palace and grounds are lovely and there are working fountains everywhere you look. We ate in several of the restaurants and cafes. All very good. Our trip was at the end of September and the warmth (mid to high 20's) and sunshine was also very welcome at that time of year.

A real lovely surprise to discover all this lovely town has to offer. Half an hour south of Madrid, it is sat prettily on a river with a small beach and a lake nearby. The town is charming and offers beautiful, grand historic buildings, delightful gardens and a good choice of excellent restaurants all very close to the excellent Hotel Palacio.

The Palace and surrounding gardens were lovely on a cool evening at the end of October. A couple of days would have given us more opportunity to see other landmarks in the area, maybe we will return in the Spring on our way to the Med and stay for a few nights. Finding a restaurant that served good local cuisine was extremely difficult and we ended up with a lovely Italian meal. Would love to go back.

The town made a great base to explore the area, we skydived for 8 days of the trip, and took the train into Madrid for the nightlife a couple of times..Aranjuez is full of good bars and restaurants with plenty of nightlife

Hotel with high standards and welcoming staff who spoke good English. Lovely position opposite the Palace and gardens and easy access to the town, adjacent the Tajo river. Excellent breakfast. Had a special evening menu in Restaurant Almanzar. Through the arch to the right of the hotel, diagonally across the square down , along the road and on the left. Well worth finding as excellent food and English speaking attentive host.

A fabulous town with spectacular architecture at every corner. So much to see. Should have come for longer but will certainly be back. The palace and gardens are well worth a visit. Allow plenty of time to take in the river and fountains. Many different types of restaurants all within easy walking distance from the hotel.
