* 10th century castle situated on the Bidasioa Estuary : View PDF
The Parador occupies a beautiful castle built by the King of Navarre, Sancho Abarca, in the 10th century. The building still retains the appearance and atmosphere of an original medieval fortress and provides a magnificent backdrop to the coastal location. The thick-walled exterior of the fortress belies its beautifully renovated interior. The stonework in the courtyard is exquisite and the seaviews from the terrace (and some of the guestrooms) are stunning. There are magical arches, coffering, wrought iron, suits of armour and medieval decor throughout the Parador. In addition to double rooms with either two beds or a queen bed, there are superior rooms (2 beds), suites and a double with canopied kingsize bed. A very special room is The Reina Maria Cristina, a suite with a 2x2 metre four poster bed. The large stone vault lends the room a touch of majesty which, added to the stunning views out over Hondarribia and the River Bidasoa basin enjoyed from the window, will make your stay unforgettable. It has a cosy living room on an upper floor, providing peace and quiet. Famous figures such as Admiral Oquendo, the Duke of Alba, Garcilarso de la Vega, the Marquess of Spínola, Sofía Loren and Natalia Figueroa have stayed in this special room. Note: This Parador does not have a restaurant - only breakfast is served - no other meals, but there are many restaurants in the vicinity. One guest who stayed at the Parador recommends eating at Sebastian close to the Parador for great food and service.

This parador was the one of the highlights of our trip to Spain. It was a unique experience and we enjoyed it very much!
Rating: Excellent
The accommodation was excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful.The breakfast was not as good as a much cheaper hotel in Bilbao.
Rating: Excellent
Excellent staff and awesome Medieval palace. We had a huge corner room with views of the harbour from all windows, including the bathroom (a benefit of booking so early). The only information we could have used beforehand was the locked parking lot which is at the bottom of steep steps--not easy to maneuver luggage. We had a bonus of a Medieval Festival during our stay!

The view outstanding. The staff fabulous, helpful, courteous. The parking atrocious. The stairs from the parking lot to the Parador horribly hard. The bathroom had a bad smell.
Rating: Very Good
the absence of male staff to carry luggage up from the car park should be addressed.it should be possible to load and unload a car at the front of the building, before taking it down to the car park

It would be nice to have Dinner Service in the hotel.
Rating: Very Good
It was an experience to stay in a parador. The buiding was incredible and the views stunning. but the bedrooms could have been anywhere. but were most comforatble and gave me a taste of how the other half live! it did not make me feel that I had to do it again. as I say we went camping in the Spanish pyrennes and they were stunning and the facities as good! but the breakfast at the parador was great! We have said that we would try another one again for a night to add to our experieces! Thanks.

too many tourists around; a little too much touristic

Breakfast was good. Again, TWIN beds not a plus for couples and shouldn't cost more should cost less because you're not having to change two beds.
Rating: Good
We missed the air conditioning. Keeping windows open was difficult because of noise.

Towels/bed linens never changed during 3 day stay. staff unfriendly, never smiled, provided little assistance . made me and my wife feel unwelcome. why do you have such unhappy people working there (all female)
Rating: Not Given
wonderful. the town and parador were fantastic. The room was a bit stuffy on the interior but still loved it. The food at breakfast was much better than expected. Really recommend it and already have!
