Parador de Zamora

it is a great hotel in a great location

just wish breakfast was included in the rate

Centrally placed for sightseeing.Spacious room,comfortable bed.

Evening meal not value for money,poor service and better food elsewhere.On the second evening found a great Italian restaurant nearby(la Mafia) Much cheaper and better food.Also when having a pre meal gin and tonic,my partner’s glass developed a hole when the waitress stirred the drink.Most of drink went on my partner’s clothes and although apologies were given,no reduction in payment.

Fantastic location stunning views and breakfast excellent. The team were extremely helpful the whole stay was effortless.

The staff were so helpful, we were extremely impressed.We chose their cheapest room. A huge room, 2 very large windows that opened onto the square. Very comfortable bed.

location and great staff

very dated. disgusting rugs everywhere, and the couches and chairs you sit on were old and uncomfortable. and the dining room was ugly- how about softer lighting and some creative cuisine

Beds enormous and comfortable

Nothing , except pool closed

Staff were excellent, especially on reception and waiter in restaurant who recommended a lovely local wine was super efficient and professional.

The setting, historical building.

The (noisy) air-conditioning kept switching on and off all night, no free bottle of water in the room, the dinner was a bit disappointing. Passing through the bar to get to the pool was not very convenient.

The location , the building, and great breakfast.

The floors, all the floors on the second level needs to be replace. They are very noisy when you walk, except the tile floor in the bathroom.

Our room overlooked the pool ? Staff were very & helpful, we managed to get our motorcycle ?️ into the garage which was a bonus. Location was amazing. Would definitely recommend ? Zamora is a lovely place.

Could have done with tea/coffee making facilities in the room

In all my years travelling through Spain to Portugal and back , the reception staff have to be the friendliest and most agreeable, helpful I have ever encountered in Northern Spain , which I’ve found to be more hostile than hospitable, they were absolutely Brilliant 10/10

No kettle/ coffee facilities in the room and no room service between 11pm - 8am. As someone who gets up at the crack of dawn to work and who needs piping hot coffee to get going this is a major problem.Saying that the staff did try and accommodate me by providing flasks off coffee / hot water and milk before they finished work for the evening, which I was grateful for, but it was luke warm due to the amount of time lying in the flask . For a great hotel to warrant becoming a fantastic hotel then providing a basic coffee / tea making facility is worth doing.Also the restaurant menu was not to our liking , so we didn’t eat there , as it was heavily accented on local cuisine and not enough international offerings available.

Everything , comfortable, great location, friendly, helpful staff.

Location superb. Good facilities and excellent staff.

Nothing comes to mind.

We had a beautiful room over-looking the square with views of the storks nesting on the church roof. The Parador location is excellent, making it easy to walk around the town.

For info: Zamora is an old city so not surprisingly there is little parking at the hotel. Parking is available about 5 mins walk away in a safe underground car park. (Just watch the entrance gate - it's easy to scrape your tyres - but it's fine after that!)

Location was superb and the staff were really helpful to everyone.

Breakfast - very limited choice.

What can I say……..relaxation, enjoyed, food superb, sitting on the verandah with a glass or two. Beautiful cathedral to visit. What’s not to like! Staff were just A1

Historic building, beautiful pool and good breakfast

Well located in the town centre, public underground parking not too far away, suite huge but suspect normal rooms would also be large, well equipped, spacious public areas and. Nice pool.

Generally no negatives, as an old building while there was a lift to the upper floor rooms, there are some staircases in the public areas to get to the bar restaurant that might be tricky for older folk. Why do Paradors give breakfast diners a flimsy set of tongs rather than put serving spoons in the fruit, cheese, cold meat platters as the tons are very difficult to work.

The Renaissance Palace in the Romanesque City of Zamora, the Parador has a medieval atmosphere that provides a contemporary hotel experience. The warmest greeting was received by the hotel manager at reception, very welcome after a long journey. The hotel staff were attentive, polite and informative, ensuring our stay was memorable. Room 112 was beautiful, however, it was noisy being located on the Plaza. Wi-Fi connectivity was not great but was adequate for an overnight stay. Breakfast was good, with good options reasonable for an establishment of this type, although service was strained due to a stressed member of the waiting team.

Disappointing no tea/coffee making in the room - however room service was provided

The location a few steps from the Plaza Mayor and the large, deep swimming pool stand out. The reception staff were friendly and welcoming and had a very convenient solution for keeping our bicycles.

The rooms are not very well soundproofed and conversations can be overheard. The wooden floors are extremely creaky. After 2 nights we were glad to leave them behind. We ate in the restaurant and at the peak time of 20.30 were the only diners there. No atmosphere. The food was middling and the service was perfunctory. It would have been better to eat in the cafeteria as most guests seemed to be doing.
