This hotel is beautiful. The view to the castle is amazing. The rooms are dated, kinda Old Workdish, but I guess that was part of the charm. The room was on the smaller side. The bed was OK, but they provided only two pillows and they were horrible. Luckily, they brought us two extra ones, no duvet or comforter either.. electric outlets in just one side of the bed, TV with local channels only. Mini fridge and safe. The bathroom was comfortable and it had a bathtub, bidet, and a towel, warmer and a blow dryer with toiletries.AC worked well. The premises were gorgeous, a nice coffee shop/bar and a very nice restaurant. We got our room with breakfast, and the breakfast was very nice, and they always brought me my gluten-free bread. We also had dinner one night there, and it was excellent, and they brought me gluten-free bread as well.The view from the room was to the castle.. they had only one lady working the front check/in and she obviously was overworked. She couldn’t provide much information about the area, and told us twice that they didn’t have Maps and we should go to the Information kiosk in town, and to be honest, we were very disappointed. The location of this place is great, you could walk to town and to Bodegas Protos and drive to the wineries in Rivera Del Duero, for the castle, you have to drive up. you need to make a reservations for the wine tasting and tours in Protos, and since the town is so small, make sure you make reservations for dinner in one of their restaurants, which the front desk lady helped us make reservations, and the dinner was amazing. We didn’t use the spa or the pool. But it was kind of chilly..There is parking for an additional fee.

The historical convent was restored beautifully in a quiet location. The breakfast provided was high quality. The entire staff from Sonia, Esther, and the young lady (sorry forgot her name) who assisted us in time of a medical emergency in the middle of the night were genuinely concerned & very much appreciated The cafeteria staff Ruid & Julia were professional & cheerful throughout our stay.

Location is great, the hotel kept the historical interior. Breakfast is good, offering you a wide selection of dishes. Great old castle view from the room.

This hotel used to be an old convent. The exterior looks medieval and some of the original walls have been preserved. Inside, it is now a modern, comfortable, spacious hotel. There is a grand courtyard with seating areas for relaxation and socializing. The hotel is very close to the wonderful Peñafiel castle (looks like something out of Robin Hood). Definitely worth a visit. It is also close to several areas of wineries. Highly recommend going to the Arzuaga winery. Take the tour which includes tasting of 3 wines. Have lunch at the winery. Order the roast lamb, which the region is famous for. It takes 3 hours to cook so reserve ahead of time. The room is large with a nice picture window. The bathroom is well equipped and spacious. You can pay to use the spa but you need to make reservations at least a day before. The breakfast buffet included fruits, cheeses, cold cuts, lots of bread, cereal, eggs cooked in different ways, nespresso coffee, a selection of teas and juices. It is worth the additional price if you want a large breakfast.

Very well situated on the edge of town just by the river. The rooms were comfortable and ours had a good view of the castle. The food in the restaurant was excellent.

Everything was very nice. Breakfast was very good. Liked the location for the meetings I had with local winemakers, very central to most of them.

The hotel is in a beautiful old building with lovely furnishings to match. You felt like you entered into another world but kept all the comforts.

The room was really spacious and they made up such a lovely little cot for our 18 month old! Breakfast was good and they had hot milk so we could make cereal for our toddler. 2 options to eat and lovely courtyard for relaxing or having a drink!

The building and our room were amazing. Location was right beside the river with easy access to central Penafiel and the Protos winery. Good breakfast. Staff, especially the server at the bar, were great.
