Parador de Toledo

A very nice hotel with fabulous views, The first room we had was rather noisy as it overlooked the lobby and check in desk , but we moved to another room and it was perfect and peaceful. There’s a bus stop a few minutes walk away which will take you to the centre of Toledo and it saves looking for car parking. The dining was fair but we’ve had a lot better at other paradors , The staff are very nice and friendly.

Stunning view, but disappointing service and unfair policies for solo travelers. ​I stayed here for 2 nights, and while the view of Toledo is undeniably the best in the city, the overall experience was frustrating due to their unfair policies and poor service. ​Unfair Breakfast Policy: I booked a room for 2 nights. Even though the room rate covers breakfast for two people, they only allowed me one free breakfast because I was staying alone. They are essentially cutting down the service I paid for just because I am a solo traveler. It is incredibly stingy to penalize someone for traveling alone. ​Overpriced Breakfast & Rude Staff: The 22-euro breakfast is a complete rip-off—not even worth 10 euros. To make matters worse, while the man at the entrance was professional, the waitress was incredibly rude, making the dining experience very uncomfortable. ​Inflexible Water Policy: Only one 1-liter bottle of water was provided for the entire 2-night stay. It is ridiculous that a 2-night guest receives the same amount as a 1-night guest. When I asked for more, the response was very cold. ​Poor Room Maintenance: Basic amenities were poorly managed. The electric kettle was broken, and the hair conditioner was already completely empty when I arrived. For a 4-star Parador, this lack of basic maintenance is unacceptable. ​Conclusion: Come for a coffee to enjoy the view, but don’t waste your money staying here for more than one night. The management clearly doesn't care about their guests' experience.

We had an excellent 2-night stay in a superior room with a balcony where we could sit and look at the view over Toledo. The room was lovely and clean and the bed very comfortable. In the day the views were as stunning as night from our balcony. The staff in Reception were attentive and helpful with a local map and advice on sights to see. The restaurant team were professional and the menu and wines were excellent. The team in the restaurant offered us help choosing local dishes and wines. We were going to eat elsewhere on our 2nd night but went back to the restaurant as we enjoyed the meals and service our first night. Lola's enthusiasm explaining the menu and Daniel and Javier's attentive service and help with local wines. The bar offers views across to Toledo which are breathtaking. Thank you to the team at Parador de Toledo.

Lovely location looking across to old Toledo city. The hotel terrace has a great location and very popular in order to watch the sunset. Easy walking distance to the escalators (30 minutes) which take you up to the main square, and the lovely narrow streets to the Castle and Cathedral. There is a bus stop a short distance away, but due to the one way traffic system, the pick up is not the same place as the drop off.||The rooms are comfortable with a balcony with great views of Toledo and the countryside, overlooking the sizable swimming pool, which was very clean.||During our stay, we had breakfast ( which was a good selection, cooked eggs were available) and evening meal on the terrace and cafe ( limited selection but sufficient and tasty). There’s is a restaurant in the hotel but we didn’t eat there.||A great place for a short stay to visit the city and countryside.

Another beautiful parador with the most incredible views over Toledo. Our room had a balcony looking over the city. Perfect for a late night view of the lit up Cathedral and Alcazar and for an early morning cup of tea watching the sun rise. We walked into Toledo (and back) - 2 miles each way. Such a lovely city; the cathedral is so beautiful. The restaurant in this parador also had incredible views over the city and the food, as in all paradors, was excellent. The only disappointment was very slow service in the cafe/bar; they were very busy and didn’t appear to have enough staff.

We travelled with a group of 30+ on a driving hotel and stayed for 2 nights on a dinner bed and breakfast basis||||The building is great and has an unmissable view over the city which can be enjoyed day and night. Our room was very comfortable and could not be faulted. Good parking at the rear of the hotel was helpful. ||||The location is away from town and the walk is pleasant to the city but can be more challenging upon the uphill return trip. Don’t try and take your own car into the city and use Bolt taxis costing less than €10 a trip. ||||The city itself is extremely popular and we were there for the National Day holiday which probably made it even busier. Lunch and dinner reservations are recommended to avoid queuing ||||However in common with the other paradores we stayed in (6 in total) the service and food did not fully live up to the quality of the accommodation. The food was really only OK and service had a few lapses. Drinks service in the bar was torturous primarily down to the weak/poor till system!!||||Overall a very pleasant stay but maybe better to skip the food and drink and go into lovely Toledo to eat and drink instead particularly for dinner.

Excellent location for a view of Toledo.Nice room and the view from the balcony is unforgettable .Good food in the restaurant and at the breakfast. Taking taxi/Uber to the town, rather than driving ourselves, was not a problem. Perhaps, some shuttle service would be appreciated by the guests.

Parador De Toledo is located outside of the central area of Toledo with a stunning view looking to the city and the cathedral. The hotel has a welcoming atmosphere, and the hotel staff was friendly and helpful. Our rooms were large and comfortable with a peaceful setting outside on our decks. We had a fun stay.

Visiting from Florida & Wales. Great Front Reception Desk under the super pro Javier. The restaurant and bar (Beatriz & Rodrigo) are also very good; friendly professional service. The restaurant food was a true culinary experience (get the oxtail ravioli and start with their soups and Croquetas), good selection of excellent local wines. Good parking (use taxis to go to town). The rooms are noisy though (hear people moving furniture and steps of upper floor). Also, should have more comfortable sitting (lounges) outside the bar to read a book while enjoying the spectacular view.

This place is definitely a trek, but definitely worth the trek. The view is phenomenal, as is with many paradors, but I think so far this would be my favorite. We came here for lunch, (although we found out you could come here just for a coffee and cake and still get a similar view as well), And love how the menu was specially designed with all the local cuisine's and specialties. The cheese platter was definitely worth it, and brought together a small collection of cheeses that were all delicious, and much better than anything we had purchased outside. The partridge was very flavorful, although a little on the tougher side, but we thoroughly enjoyed the Iberico pork dish - that and the pork would absolutely be reasons to come back. They also accommodate to gluten-free and celiacs quite well, and the gluten-free bread is delicious. Service was great, and the ambience fantastic. Come for the view and stay for the food!

We stayed in room 311 on a cool night in April. The Parador is gorgeous. We loved our private balcony with table and chairs, overlooking the pool and the beautiful city of Toledo below. Parking is easy and free. There's a big lot. Our room was gorgeous. Huge and spacious with a tiled floor and a four-poster bed. Like many European hotel rooms, you need to insert your key card into a slot to provide electricity. For whatever reason, this stopped working in the middle of the night. The next morning, we had no electricity to most outlets. Zero light in the bathroom. I suppose we could have asked the front desk, but they were pretty surly upon check-in and we were leaving after the one night anyway. Electricity issue aside, I loved our room. The bed wasn't the most comfortable, and there was only one pillow per person, but the size of the room was a total surprise. Had the weather been nicer, I might have spent the whole day just writing on the balcony. You cannot beat the view here. Side note: There was a safe in our room, but I couldn't figure out how to use it. It didn't have a keypad. It had a thing to read a credit card or something. But my credit card wouldn't lock it. Our room card didn't activate it. Total head-scratcher. One small issue is that our room was at the end of several corridors that had random 3-step staircases. That's fine if you're able-bodied, but it was a pain every time I had to hoist our suitcases up and down a pointless set of stairs. One significant downside to the parador is that you need a car to get into Toledo. You could take a taxi or take your life into your hands by trying to weave the incredibly narrow streets (not recommended). Google maps said it was something like a 48-minute walk to get into the city, so take that into consideration.

Only spent one night in Toledo and we chose the Parador. Unlike other Paradors that were former castles, monastery's, or convents...this Parador was built in this location to take advantage of the spectacular views of Toledo. The accommodations were good. Due to the distance removed from the city, this would not be my first choice as you must rely on cabs.

What an amazing view of the city of Toledo ... great Croquettes and wine... I'm sure anything you order will taste great but really you come here for the spectacular view. Only 1/2 hr train ride from Madrid and $28 euros. It's a must see!!!

If you're visiting Toledo, I highly recommend stopping by this hotel's cafe. The view from the cafe's balcony is spectacular, so grab a cafe con leche or freshly squeezed orange juice, relax, and enjoy the view. As the hotel is located up on top of the mountains surrounding Toledo, you'll be able to take some great pics of the entire city. Plus the hotel itself is pretty sweet. You'll have to take a bus up to the hotel, which will cost you about 1.80 Euros roundtrip. The bus stop is located at the Plaza de Zocodover, which is also a nice area to shop and eat.

Stayed at parador for 2 nights. There is no better view of the city. Earlier reviewer is correct about visiting the outdoor patio cafe. It was reasonably priced, especially considering the view. Best photography light is early morning through mid day. You can get a good bottle of tinto for 16 or 18 euros. Sunset was nice too. Rooms have little balconies with same view and are spacious. Dinner in restaurant was very good. Oxtail stew was the best I've had. Veal fillet was perfectly cooked. Octopus appetizer prepared well but a little too much salt on top. Smoked paprika was right amount.

The hotel accomodations were fine, but our experience there was ruined by being brushed off when our rental car was damaged in their parking lot. Someone backed into it and took off. When I found the damage and showed it to one of the staff, I was told there was a security camera. When I saw the security camera screen at reception, I noticed that, coincidentally, it was aimed such that the back of my car was visible from above. The camera would catch anyone backing into the car. After multiple attempts to get the video feed, I was first told that they couldn't give it to me -- just the rental car company. I passed that info along and was told by the rental car company that the hotel said they would only give it to me!!!! Another effort to get it from the hotel. I was stalled and finally told it showed nothing. That was impossible as the camera was aimed perfectly to catch the errant driver. I will never stay at that hotel again and encourage others to be wary of false claims of customer service.

First of all I would say the view is pleasant and the rooms are clean, big and comfortable. You would feel good and calm. The sad things is that the personale don't have the costumers in focus. Me and my friend have traveled around Spain, Italy and Portugal - and it's the first time that we couldn't order a beer or a soda after midnight (even though their is a person around at nighttime) due to the receptionist didn't have "permission" to go too the bar and get us a beer (wtf you are in charge of the hotel by night) . We told him about that the mini bar was empty and we would like a drink. But no "wiggle room" for that. I'm disappointed because I haven't seen it elsewhere. Neither way good hotel but go to Madrid or Italy or even another place with service if you want a drink after 00:00 Thank you for having us it was a pleasure, kinda...? Best regards Gustav the traveler

Breathtaking panoramic view just like my house :) Service at the bar was great. They have a lot selection of wines and beers with great prices. My cerveza y limon only costs 2.30 euro!

Beautiful hotel with an amazing view of the old town. The restaurant is "odd" to say the least. Patrons eat in total silence (some background music would make a world of difference) and the lighting is very cold, which makes a restaurant with an amazing view feel very cold. Still, was worth the 10€ cab ride from the old town for the view. The food: the starter risotto was very flavorful but it was 3x the size of an average American starter. Starters are supposed to leave you looking forward to your next course and not leave you worrying that you have filled up on your appetizer. The rest of the meal (which we had in awkward silence) was average at best. Do come here for a drink on the terrace... have dinner elsewhere.

Our last meal in Spain was at the restaurant in this hotel. The food was delicious! The staff was very attentive and efficient. Go for the view on the terrace for coffee, dessert and or wine if the price is out of budget. I'm not sure about the price as it was included in our tour. You won't be sorry!

Beautiful building, beautiful view, nice room - but unfortunately there's a "but" negating the place. We chose to stay here for the view - the view of Toledo truly makes the place. We made reservations 3 months before arriving. They didn't give us a good view of Toledo, nice, but not something one would expect after making reservations so far in advance. Another crapper is, though the hotel does reserve a place on the patio for it's guests, it's a restricted view; shouldn't a guest get the best of the views? The guest is paying for the view of Toledo. So, over all it's a nice place, just don't expect too much.

The service was excellent and the staff went out of their way to attend to our needs (allergies are a problem for one of our group). The food was exquisitely prepared. Thank you!!!

Our first day and night in Spain will be so memorable because of our stay here. Wonderful staff. Beautiful rooms. And a great restaurant with delicious food.
