Отель Concejo Hospederia, Валория-ла-Буэна, Испания

Cristina swept us up in her exuberant hospitality the moment we walked into this old castle, and she was always there to make sure we were comfortable, happy, well-fed, and paying attention to the special features of the building: the original floors and stairs, and the paintings by the general who bought the castle originally. This inn appears to be THE place for big weddings and other celebrations in the area, and there are large rooms on the first floor to accomodate hundreds of guests, but the dining room for hotel guests is intimate and elegant. And there is a small bar by the entrance where you can have drinks and tapas. The feeling of hospitality extends to every one of the staff we met, and especially to the owner, Enrique, who personally mapped out a day trip for us to visit castles, monasteries, churches, and interesting walled towns nearby.

We have stayed here before many years ago and it was amazing then and amazing now, mainly catering for weddings we were the only guests staying on the night we were there. The manager and the owner were totally amazing even bringing the chef in to make us breakfast the next day even though only two guests!. Location is off the beaten track but good for a stop over en route north or south. Highly recommended

The blend of old and new has been perfectly executed, making the whole stay one a pleasure on the eye. The option of the restaurant is great although on this occasion I did not use it. However, the breakfast and service was outstanding and highly recommended. Overall this is a very professional, yet friendly experience. One I hope to repeat one day.

Great welcome and the evening meal in the restaurant was outstanding. We needed to get some medication and the hotel phoned the pharmacy in the next village to ensure they had the medication and to advise them that we were coming to collect.

Superb re use of an historic building. Fantastic food.
