Lodges in El Barco de Ávila - Piedrahíta

Beautiful hotel with wonderful hosts. delicious dinner. Room a little chilly, but not to the detriment of our overall enjoyment. A hidden treasure.

The host was welcoming and offered us a fixed meal at very reasonable price. Even though we did not arrive until 8pm. The room was warm, clean and comfortable. This hotel is unfortunately in an isolated location not easily accessible from any major roads.

Cracking rural mini hotel half way up a hill but still very close to the Arenas de San Pedro town centre. Spent just one night and it was rustic and lovely. The soak in the pool was great considering the 39c temps. Evening meal was a surprise but a tad pricey. Hotel staff couldn't do enough for you and really tried to help you with every query. Stayed June 2026.

The hostal is very comfortable & clean. We were welcomed by the gentlemen who staffs the hostal, he was very helpful & made us feel very welcome. The beds are very comfortable. We had a balcony with a lovely view of the mountains. I would recommend the hostal, we hope to make a return visit in the future.

With the exception of an issue with breakfast (which should have been included FOC but we were charged for it at checkout; at the time of writing this is under investigation by Hotels.com), we could not fault the location, the property or its management. It is wonderful and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. A very very minor point but there was no plugs for the kitchen sink - we did enquire but were told there weren't any.

As experienced in late March 2015 at a very good rate of €80 inc breakfast. Very nice location & surroundings - it was a palace for Charles I (of Spain). Excellent room with very comfortable twin beds (close together for intimacy, if you want it!) and beautiful bathroom. Bathroom let down by the shower as the glass screen on edge of bath was inadequate to prevent water on the floor. Machinery type "hum" in our room was occasionally slightly intrusive at night - couldn't find the source and...

Fantastic place and location,quiet mountain village with selection of bars

tuvimos un problema con la habitación pero nos compensaron con el desayuno

Excellent location if you like hiking - the mountains and countryside were on the doorstep. Run by an enthusiastic and very genial ornithologist. Slight miscommunication on check in that cost us an extra €20 which was unforeseen and a little annoying but we were happy to pay it. Service from staff was exceptional and the food served in the bar was delicious. TV didn’t work in the bedroom and a fan would have been welcome as it was hot when we stayed.

Lovely hotel in a beautiful location. Nice room, not the usual rectangular box with a bathroom take out of one corner.
