Surrounded by the crystal blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea, the Spanish town of Peñíscola is a fortified seaport in the Castellón province. This attractive destination is a well-liked tourist resort thanks to its unique position on a rock and the gorgeous beaches.
Home to an iconic lighthouse and an impressive old town, the historic medieval city of Peñíscola will amaze you with its unique beauty and variety of outdoor activities. Apart from historical sites, it features wonderful beaches like Basseta Beach, the pebbled Argilaga Cove and the sandy Norte Beach.
Situated on the highest point of the city, the Castle used to be the residence of Pope Benedict XIII. The filming location of the epic movie ‘El Cid’, Peñíscola is about 145 km from the city of Valencia. The fort has three different entrances, built during different periods from the 15th-century until 1754.
Travellers can walk along the promenade area, wander around the green botanic park with the palm trees or visit a restaurant to savour local fish stew and shellfish. Booking.com will help you choose from a variety of hotels, apartments, guest houses and campsites in Peñíscola and the nearby cities of Alcossebre, Benicarló and Vinarós.

The old town is great for spending a few days in - Book one of the top two rooms at Dios Esta Bien B&B as then you have a great place in the old town from which to explore with great food & hosts, as well as being able to get away from the crowds by retreating to your own private terrace which then gives you access to the roof terrace. The hostel does not have a lift, but on the plus side, it avoids walking up and down the hill if you are not staying in the old town. The rest of Peñíscola is a big and well laid out resort - We were fortunate to be there just before Easter when it was quieter, but it does get very busy during the holiday season, so pick your time if only spending a few days here. The food and drinks at the B&B are very good and we can highly recommend the restaurant La Taverneta de Sant Roc just down the same street - their T-bone steak was amazing and they were charming hosts. Personally, the whole resort is a bit too big for us when considering a holiday, but everyone should visit and spend a few days in the old town - it’s got a real buzz and vibe about it, and best time to go would be before and after main summer holiday season unless you like crowds

I most liked visiting the castle and the old town surrounding the castle. This is well worth a visit. The town has great beaches, but there are many shops and restaurants closed during the wintertime.

Absolute waste of money.
Absolute waste of money. Run down accommodation, no parking g in town, very touristy, and full of people with selfie sticks. The castle although huge has nothing specifically interesting except the views.

definitely a place worth a visit, the old town and castle are a must (probably not good if you have mobility issues). We visited in December and the town was decorated for Christmas, really nice (and busy). we stayed for 3 nights but used Peniscola as a base to visit Morella. We think 2 days is more than enough if you don't want the beach, however if it is the beach you want then Pensicola is perfect.
There are a multitude of restaurants to choose from and seafood is a speciality.
Loved it.

Peñiscola is a stunning seaside town in the northern tip of the Valencian Community, famous for its medieval castle and its rich history. Whether you are looking for a relaxing beach holiday, a cultural adventure, or a musical feast, Peñiscola has something for everyone.
You can explore the impressive fortress of Peñiscola Castle, walking in the very steps of many generations before. You can also enjoy the views of the Mediterranean from the lighthouse and the Museum of the Sea. If you are a nature lover, you can hike or bike in the Sierra de Irta nature reserve.
Peñiscola also hosts two music festivals every summer: the International Festival of Ancient and Baroque Music and the International Jazz Festival of Peñiscola. You can listen to some of the best musicians from around the world in a unique, very pleasant setting.
Peñiscola is a gem of the Costa del Azahar, a place where history, culture, and nature blend together in harmony. Don't miss this opportunity to visit one of the most popular tourist destinations in Spain. 100% recommended.

We visited the castle, and surrounding area the first afternoon. Lots of souvenir shops we avoided.
The rest of the time we were at the beach and walking,
There was supposedly a festival but didn't really see any evidence of it each time we walked around the town, except the big bike ride I saw from our balcony. We did go to the Information center but were only given the book and a useless map of castle area. No 'real' city map so we didn't know where the locations were that had events. Booths were empty each time we went to old town.
I had wished there was something to do in the evenings (not bar scene) culturally.
Mostly we were there for the beach. It was wonderful. We are from California and miss it after living in Spain 10 months. A day away from the area would have been good but we hadn't planned on it.
Good restaurants but very hard to find non seafood for hubby. (as expected).
The owners were great , customer oriented and made us feel like home. They helped us with paper work for our job and are really friendly, genuine warm people .We traveled from work to Peniscola cause my dad was in hospital in very bad condition and they made me feel at ease.Nothing was too much for them , always ready to go the extra step for us .before being owners they are two beautiful people who showed love and care for other human beings .So thank you so much to both of you ! We ended up booking 4 more nights !
Lovely , quaint hotel . Gorgeous building with breathtaking views . We visited during the height of the summer season in Peniscola, and the Joanna hotel exceeded my expectations. love the charm of the building , the breakfast with a view could not be beaten . Our room was fabulous! there’s a restaurant downstairs that serves a mouth watering stone grill tuna that’s to die for . Let’s not forget the amazing couple who runs the place… hope I’ll be able to visit again
We spent in the apartment a month (april-may) with a baby 1yo. Generally very happy. Huge terrace, equipped kitchen, AC in living room only, private parking place, swimming pool. Very close to nice beach, caffee and great bakery around the corner. Bus stop to peniscola/benicarlo 5mins (1.25e), walking 1:10 to peniscola or 40m to benicarlo. Agency was very helpful, they sent somebody to check washing machine same day.
advertised as having resturant/bar/reception and outside seating. Had none of the above due , in the owners words "to fumigation"!!!!!!!
STEER CLEAR!! refused any refund despite the basin tap coukld be lifted out of the basin hole, the shower door was broken, the shower leaked in three seperate places and there was no wi fi - apart from that Peniscola is Fab BUT DO NOT STAY HERE!!
A generous sized room with a comfortable bed. It was good to be able to book car parking on site behind a security barrier. The location of the hotel was very good, being on the sea front. The restaurant was closed during our stay but we had an excellent evening meal at a small family restaurant just a short walk towards the town at Casa Pepe. We would be happy to stay here again.
Apartamento Laurel has all you need for great holiday stay. It’s situated by the beach so you just need to cross a small road to jump to the sea.
There are two nice balconies with sea view and very comfortable bedrooms. Kitchen with all you need for example coffee or tea (which is not so obvious event in good Spanish hotel).
I really enjoyed the stay and will for sure return.
Nice feel to the hotel and enjoyed working with the younger front desk agent...welcoming and helpful.
Room assignment received per our request. Thank you!
Excellent breakfast
Parking next to property and above ground
Great view of the fortress...which is at least one mile away
Would return to hotel if ever in Pensicola. Especially for the breakfast
The hotel was immaculate. So clean & a great atmosphere. The staff spoke English well & were so welcoming & helpful. They upgraded our room & we were also able to stay another night as we loved the hotel & the peace & quiet of the area. Hotel is right on the beach & also has a great pool!
This was a very nice small hotel. There was a large, comfortable bed, and we liked the sea creature theme on the bathroom door. The front of the hotel faced a big plaza at the foot of the old town. You could see the harbor across the plaza, from our balcony.
Almost in the centre, but not noisy place. We had a balcony with a nice view to Peniscola - really stunning in the evening. Breakfast is nice - not the widest choice, but was perfectly enough, as well as fresh and tasty, including fruits.
The room was clean and had everything we needed. The location was excellent overlooking the sea and a short flat walk into Peniscola. We were staying on a half board basis and thought the food and choices were excellent.
This was a perfect place to stay in Peniscola! Calm neighbourhood, beautiful views from the balcony, TV had netflix, apartment had everything you need and was very cosy. Sebas was a friendly host!
Traveled with family on our holiday on our way to Barcelona. Accommodation was good and close to all the sites and attractions that Peniscola has to offer. Highly recommed.
We had a room at the back of the hotel, which was lovely and quiet, but obviously no view of the beach! A great location and the staff were really friendly and helpful.
