Parador De Alcaniz

This Parador sits amongst the structure of the castle dominating the small town of Alcañiz. The whole experience is a delight. My welcome was friendly and personal, and I had a lovely (standard) room with tile features and a terracotta floor. Dinner is served in a characterful large room decorated with tapestries, breakfast in a separate room (good choice of hot and cold food) and there is a bar/cafetaria with some pleasant outdoor seating. There is plenty of parking, and a five-minute walk down a narrow road takes you to the small but interesting historical centre of Alcañiz. Note that the tourist office arranges twice-daily guided visits of the old castle rooms, which are otherwise locked to visitors - do a visit if you can, as the buildings have some interesting features.

High-altitude but easily accessible hotel in a beautiful castle with a terrace in the courtyard. Friendly people. The rooms are dated but well furnished.

What a wonderful place to stay there. You don't feel it. The king is a duke and my girlfriend is a duchess. The service is great. Little to none to report, or it should be a few deck chairs outside, a chaise longue is also fine.
