Palacio Buenavista

“Maravilhoso e confortável lugar para ficar com excelentes vistas e uma equipe simpática.”

Acabámos aqui quando o hotel onde estamos destinados a permanecer em outra cidade foi fechada para reforma, um dos sortudos, serendipity coisas que acontecem às vezes quando você estiver em uma viagem em locais desconhecidos.

Acabámos aqui quando o hotel onde estamos destinados a permanecer em outra cidade foi fechada para reforma, um dos sortudos, serendipity coisas que acontecem às vezes quando você estiver em uma viagem em locais desconhecidos. Este hotel foi maravilhoso, e os jantares no restaurante foram muito bons. O hotel também dispõe de garagem, que é uma comodidade agradável quando você está viajando por Espanha de carro. A equipe de funcionários é muito agradável e amigável, mas o conhecimento de algum espanhol conversacional é útil, porque isto não é uma cadeia de turismo que atende a pessoas que falam inglês --- que é parte de seu charme. Não deixe de visitar o castelo nesta cidade enquanto você está lá, como ele foi um dos destaques de nossa viagem pela Espanha.

“A good base for Don Quixote trail”

We booked this hotel as a stop over between Madrid and Valencia and as a base to visit the windmills of Don Quixote area of Castle La Mancha. The building is old with a lovely rustic décor.

We booked this hotel as a stop over between Madrid and Valencia and as a base to visit the windmills of Don Quixote area of Castle La Mancha. The building is old with a lovely rustic décor. We visited at the end of June 2009 and the hotel which has 36 rooms, was practically empty. There is a large unused courtyard and gardens with outdoor bar (locked up) – so someone was expecting tourists. There is a lock-up garage with free parking as street space is limited. Belmonte is beautiful but extremely quite so don’t come for the nightlife! The castle was closed for renovation but is magnificent from outside. The cathedral is worth a visit too. The highlight of the area are the old windmills of the Don Quixote trail and we visited Moto del Cuervo, Campo de Criptana, Consuegra and El Toboso. Our room was clean with a country feel and the most magnificent view. We paid €37.50 pps including breakfast. The Air Conditioning was satisfactory. The staff were very friendly and helpful – however you will need a smattering of Spanish, as they have no English. Breakfast was very basic. We had two evening meals here, taking the menu del dia at €22 each – which is expensive for rural Spain. Belmonte has nowhere else to eat which is probably the reason for the high price. The first meal was satisfactory. In hindsight we believe this was because the restaurant had a large local booking for that evening. The second was very disappointing and which we think was ‘assembled’ by the waiter. There were no other diners or staff around. We did not complain because of the language barrier, because we got what we ordered and because the waiter was so nice but he knows we got poor value.

“Not impressed”

This is a very old hotel and, at 68 Euros, somewhat expensive for a two star. When we arrived, the bedside lights were not working, it turned out they were not even plugged in as the cables could not reach the socket! Extension leads had to be provided. Window blind could not be used as it was brok… Mais

This is a very old hotel and, at 68 Euros, somewhat expensive for a two star. When we arrived, the bedside lights were not working, it turned out they were not even plugged in as the cables could not reach the socket! Extension leads had to be provided. Window blind could not be used as it was broken and tied up with a piece of string. The headboard of one of the beds had come away from the wall. Other than that, the room was o.k. Very spacious and clean with a great view of Belmonte Castle. Breakfast was a disappointment - stale croissants and tea that tasted fishy.
