Exceptional, historic luxury and authentic architecture. We stayed two years ago and were so impressed. I had forgotten the half of how spectacular this place is. It has a warm and even temperature throughout despite being a fort/ castle. I am sure King Carlos and Napoleon didn't have this much luxury. For all its grandeur such as embossed sheets and towels,this parador is informal,friendly and peaceful. The breakfast choice is first class and a lovely mix of waited on service and self service. We splashed out for our wedding anniversary near Christmas and the hotel decorations were simple and stunning.

The hotel is actually a castle and all by itself this is amazing. You feel like you are teleported back to medieval time but with the luxury of enjoying modern facilities. Room is tastefully and contemporarily furnished. Breakfast is well assorted and can be enjoyed both indoor or outdoors. There is paid parking onsite (within the limited-traffic area of town). Environment is quiet.

The building is magnificent, a 10th century castle. The room was spacious. The common areas are excellent, the staff was friendly and the view from the patio over to Hendaye in France is breathtaking. The town of Hondarribia is very beautiful and worth the visit.

The room was very spacious, in keeping with the great age of the building, very well equipped and with amazing views of the sea and the Pyrenees. Also San Sebastian airport run way was very close, and it was exciting to watch Airbusses coming in to land over the sea. I hasten to add that there were very few planes a day, and that the bedroom was totally sound proof. 20€ a day for secure parking was a bonus.

One of the best paradors we have stayed in. The vibe of an old thirteenth century castle with modern amenities was amazing. Be sure to check out the old dining/banquet halls upstairs for another glimpse of the past, especially the upper hall with priceless Ruebens tapestries!! Breakfast in the castle courtyard was a dream.

We are two cyclists on a ride from Cadiz to San Sebastian. Our needs are simple we seek a clean bed and a hot shower – the hotel provided both Reception was welcoming and helpful – We select the Parador chain for a touch of luxury and enjoy the lavish and expert restoration of historical buildings across Spain - here an old castle has two additional wings of new rooms with views into the courtyard and out to seas - located in the heart of the old town on top of a small hill Another one of the top 5 Historical locations in the parador chain - A great creative conversion of a stunning historical building Excellent in every way

What an absolute pleasure it was to stay at this magnificent Parador. Our room had a sea view and was a Junior Suite. It was just perfect. The staff were so accommodating and even helped us with learning a little Basque language and sharing some of the history of the area. Being celiac, the breakfast more than accommodated for me which was a bonus. We loved loved loved our stay!!
