Hotéis em Lorca com Breakfast

Strange hotel really! On arrival, it's one of the most beautiful buildings and approach we've seen in a long time. The hotel has been built next to the castle and is totally in keeping with its surroundings. On arrival, the reception area is stunning and the staff helpful and friendly. However, it went rapidly downhill on opening our room door. The first thing we noticed was the curtain hanging off its rail! It's a big room with very little furniture and what there was, was a bit tatty. We were disappointed so headed back to reception to change rooms. Pretty much the same but the curtains were ok. This time the room smelt of drains! Having never stayed in a parador before, we were expecting a bit of luxury, maybe our mistake. The room was pretty basic with standard hard beds, no cushions on the sofa, no little extras. The building deserves better! Room was very clean and large but just lacking any wow factor or a hint of luxury. For an overnight stay, it's a great location and clean, just don't expect a beautiful room in keeping with the building. Fantastic views day and night

We recently spent two nights on a stopover trip to Andalucia. We were looking forward to recovering from a long drive by cooling off in the pool or chilling in the SPA. Although the temperatures were in the mid 30s the pool closed the day after our arrival for the season and the indoor pool and SPA was closed both days, as it is closed Sunday and Monday. We had booked the hotel for the proximity to the town and the pool and so were very disappointed that we had not been made aware either on the web site or when we phoned to book. I would have expected that the pool would have been open in September. The room was great, but the hotel was a little tired and could do with someTLC. The food and breakfast were very good and well priced for a four star hotel.
