Beautiful, unique location. Very helpful staff.

The superior rooms had great mountain views but some rooms were right over the delivery area that we found sleep challenging in the morning…fortunately we were able to get our room moved. The restaurant menu, with great service, was the same for lunch and dinner with a relatively small selection of (tasty) entrees…if you are there for one or two nights it is fine but by the 4th day it got a bit repetitious for us. But don’t let either of these comments keep you from visiting this Parador because you would be cheating yourself out of a wonderful experience.

What a history rich and ambiance rich Parador…the superior room was spacious and comfortable…we weren’t in good enough shape to hike the loop trails to the river but we hiked two trails right outside the Parador door that offered fantastic views, wild flowers and historic remnants (e.g. an old mill, an intact chestnut roasting hut, a 6th century fortress)….the restaurant and cafeteria service and quality of the food were solid (the cafeteria provided the salad rich in greens that we had been craving)…the walk behind the parador was history rich and the perfect stroll after a hearty meal…We also enjoyed our day of checking out the area monasteries, churches and towns…No shortage of things to do!!

Very disorganised breakfast - part buffet, part order. Not enough staff. Too many staff at dinner just standing chatting with each other

Amazing building and location Museum and hotel

We had dinner in their restaurant and although most of the staff were lovely there was one (tall, dark haired man) we think he was the maitre/head waiter, that wasn’t too friendly and did spoil the visit to the restaurant a little bit. The food was ok but we were expecting more. Overall is was ok but it could have been better, that’s the problem

The building and history. Rooms were clean and comfortable

The booking through booking.com got messed up. Booked two rooms - 2 and 1 adults. Initial response from Booking.com was aligned to this but subsequently it became two rooms for 1 adult each room. However produced all the emails and booking.com app messages and sorted easily enough. Do continue to check the details of the booking with each and every message.

Fantastic monastery building steeped in history. Really sympathetic conversion into a parador. Our room was excellent, bed extremely comfortable, bathroom excellent. Evening meal on the terrace was superb. Breakfast was amazing.

Strong smell of drains both near room and in key locations which also came through ventilation system. On inquiry hotelier suggested it was government lack of adequate sewerage facilities in the village with no apologies. But we didn’t expect this during our stay especially for a high end hotel.

Location fantastic. Room clean & comfortable. Breakfast exceptional. Evening meal delicious.

Some staff could have been friendlier and given more information about the walks and area. Shame they didn’t have outside tables/ seating in the inner courtyard

Amazing setting and old historical building. Very nice restaurant area for dinner and fabulous breakfast

Stayed in July 2023

No bubble bath for the bath provided. The water kept switching between the bath and the shower. Breakfast seemed disorganised and it wasn't clear what we needed to do/what was going on.

Amazing room. Great location for walks and views. Lovely food in the restaurant- staff were happy to help and explain the vegetarian options at dinner. Great wine at dinner. The building is beautiful and worth walking around to explore its nooks and crannies.

There is no bar. Only a rather uncomfortable cafeteria if you want to buy a drink. The hotel has undergone a fabulous recent refurbishment, so why wasn't a comfortable lounge bar included?

Stunning location

The staff in the restaurant went to great lengths to make my husband’s birthday meal very special. During our stay I booked a massage which was excellent, the therapist was kind and professional & I was left feeling very relaxed which was the desired outcome. We had an excellent stay thanks to the kind & courteous staff of the Parador Santo Estevo.

The location is incredible - amazing views down the gorge and surrounding countryside. Restaurant is impressive and lovely (rich!) food. Fabulous walks from the parador to take in the countryside

Having a room over the front carpark can be very noisy if windows are open as sound Carries .. as in all paradors the ability to make tea and coffee I. The room would be good.. not everyone wants a full big breakfast nor wants to wait to get a coffee

Our room was a bit tiny so was the bed and we didn’t have hot drinks facilities. The garage was outside the building and you have to carry your own luggage for a long way. I think they could do with more staff.

The best was the location and the building. The food was excellent. The staff was very attentive.
