Nestled in the Sierra Norte mountains, this charming village offers scenic hiking trails along the Lozoya River and ancient stone architecture. Savour traditional Castilian cuisine at family-run restaurants before exploring the nearby medieval town of Buitrago del Lozoya with its impressive fortress walls.
We booked the Suite for a long weekend and weren’t disappointed. Room was spacious with numerous balconies. Extra touches with cakes, fruit or sweets daily along with bottled water, besides the normal tea and coffee. Cleanliness was second to none. Staff were professional and polite. Breakfast was full of variety along with freshly cooked eggs and bacon by order. The indoor and rooftop pool facilities were amazing. Lots of restaurants in the vicinity along with bars. Just a short walk...

Pedraza is a beautiful, ancient pueblo with cobbled streets and old stone houses that you can cover in a few hours.
Because the hotel is in a narrow street you have to park a 2 min walk away in a free car park. The hotel had a lovely, spacious room with a balcony and was extremely quiet and very comfortable. Breakfast (tostada, coffee & orange juice) was served in the cafe a few yards away.
A lovely stay and highly recommended, especially if you're looking for an overnight stop before catching...

Ideally located for an overnight stop to or from the ferries. Good size rooms, ask for one at the back for the best views. Great choice in the restaurant.

The hotel was easy to find, staff helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. We chose this spot as a 'halfway' stop for our journey from Santander to Alicante. We have booked this hotel again for our return journey too.
