La Casona de Calderón Gastronomic & Boutique Hotel

Superbe hôtel ! Le personnel est très accueillant et les chambres sont spacieuses. Nous avons passé un très bon séjour, nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir.

A nice traditional Spanish building but not doing much business and therefore skimping on maintenance. No evidence of “gastronomy “ with only breakfast service.

Two parts to this review: the hotel and the restaurant. The hotel is location is central, and the ambience charming. The receptionist welcomed us warmly. Our room was spacious and comfortable. The hotel is also steps away from a launderette if you need one. The bathtub felt a bit unsafe (this is the only time I've every written this). The surface was very slippery and needed something to increase the friction. One of the reasons we chose this hotel was because of the restaurant. The hotel touts it as a special gastronomical experience. I received a text the day before our arrival telling us that we should make a reservation, or we would miss this experience. Sadly, making a reservation wasn't worth the effort. The menu looked interesting enough. Our first course of quail pate with pepper jam was delicious. Things went downhill with our mains. I had crispy squid with pepper jam and zucchini that arrived cold, except for the zucchini. My husband's pork cheeks were also cold. We sent the plates back to the kitchen. The food was tepid this time (and cold zucchini). It was a crushing disappointment. Our server was extremely pleasant and tried to be helpful. He comped us for the dessert we ordered. The hotel should close its restaurant until they have someone who is up to the task of managing the kitchen properly. Please stop advertising as a Michelin-starred restaurant. It sets expectations high, and rightly so.
