Parador de Calahorra

Purpose built hotel, not as interesting as some of the Paradores in old converted buildings that have more character.

Arriving in a downpour this was like a lovely dry oasis! The rooms are excellent, and very comfortable, with good sized bathrooms (bath and bidet included). No need to go out to eat as The menu in the restaurant offered a good variety and was delicious. Also reasonably priced, as was the wine. It was in the perfect location for us web route to Santander from Barcelona.

Excellent hotel. We will be returning next month. Staff very friendly and efficient, the rooms are very clean and the food is very good.

I stay in Paradors a lot (I have a Gold card) though I almost never leave reviews but this experience was so awful I made an exception. The Parador itself is not special in any way unlike almost every other Parador. It is next to a burger king in an unimpressive busy town but the one meal I ate in the restaurant was the worst I have ever been served in a Parador. I sent my steak back once and the replacement was worse than the first. We booked for two nights and we left after one. At breakfast we only drank tea because we both had started to feel ill and we left as soon as we got the chance. The final gift from this place was food poisoning. Having visited 30 or so paradors this one erxperience was so bad it has put me off visiting them again.

Very pleased with this parador. Although modern and in the middle of Calahorra it was quiet and we had a good nights sleep.

Good quality rooms, reasonably priced.Friendly and helpful reception staff. Close to restaurants and shops.
