Parador de Limpias

If you've never statyed in a Parador location, this is an excellent example of the brand/experience in Spain. Don't forget to sign up for the AMIGO discoount scheme too! Very handy for the ferry services from Bilbao and Santander too!

Lovely hotel set in extensive grounds - sadly the rain prevented exploring. Our room was in the modern wing - large and comfortable. Nice to have two large armchairs in a standard room - why do most hotels only give you one in a double room? The cafeteria layout is a bit odd - kind of part of reception area - not enough tables for those wanting to eat when it was not nice weather for outdoor dining.

Nestled in a forested plot on the edge of Limpias, this parador exudes as relaxed and comfortable charm. Guests wandered, or sat reading, chatting, or taking an ale or three. Most everything was excellent ... although the dinnertime restaurant service was disappointing. Inadequate wait-staff numbers appeared to be the problem. The food, however, was excellent ... and my departure breakfast pack (leaving too early for restaurant breakfast) was excellent. Rooms 104 and 105 are in the main building and right above the sliding front door. The door needs some noise control work, and reverberates into those rooms with every opening and closing. If you're after a suite I suggest avoiding those two unless the door gets fixed.

Parador de Limpias is a beautiful hotel in an unexpectedly lovely setting. The staff are helpful and friendly and the foof is,as you would expect, of the highest quality.

I had a fantastic stay here, this Parador was the highlight of my trip to Spain. The staff were all very friendly and professional, the room was excellent (especially the bathroom!) and breakfast was a particularly refined and enjoyable experience. I was bicycle touring around the area and I really appreciated the secure storage location they provided for my bike. The informal bar area was also very good, and I enjoyed a light meal there. The grounds around the hotel are attractive and well maintained and provide an ideal setting for the main building.
