Castillo de Monte la Reina Posada Real & Bodega

Beautiful grounds, large rooms, great breakfast, good service, very cool place to stay.

Advertised and air conditioning in the rooms when in fact there was not any air conditioning, not even a fan in 40 degree weather. We slept very poorly.

Quiet area. Beautiful views. Stunning castle. Very dog friendly. Super comfy bed and powerful shower.

Nothing. We will definitely be back

Peaceful setting and unique "Honor system" in the kitchen.

Musty bathroom smell

Dog friendly and in a beautiful environment.

That there is a 20€ per night surcharge for dogs!!

Such an usual experience as we booked without realising that the concept is a bed and breakfast, guest house in a castle located in a winery but with no one to welcome you after 7pm and no restaurant. However, upon confirmation of the booking, the "hotel" sends us all the instructions to check-in online, how to access the interior of the castle and our room as well as how to enjoy a whole bunch of gourmet snacks and top wines in the modern "honesty kitchen" of the castle where you just fill up the list of the items you select to add them to your bill for check-out. We ended up having a romantic sunset dinner on our own in the gardens of the castle thinking that we had it exclusive to ourselves until we found out that various other guests had all gone out for dinner in the Toro village nearby!The bedroom was superb, the breakfast served by friendly staff and we enjoyed a very original experience in a luxurious property at a very affordable price.

The hotel had told us there was an electric charger for our fully electric car but it wasn't working.

Comfortable and stylish

The kitchen staff were unfriendly. They have a company policy of not shipping forgotten, personal items which is difficult to understand, especially if all the costs involved will be covered by the guest.

Stunning location with glorious nature all around. Fantastic staff. Great breakfast. Option to have a picnic in the grounds, under the olive trees, in the evening, which we absolutely loved. Fabulous bodega. Highly recommend trying the cuvée privee. Bodega tour was really informative and our expert guide was brilliant. The room was lovely and airy. Bed was exceptionally comfortable.

Everything, the rooms were massive, the bathrooms are in the towers, they have this kitchen called the honesty bar that's open to everyone, food coffee and beer wine it's really cool, plenty of places to walk, dog friendly and they they have their own vineyard and the wine tastes really good

The restaurant was closed, I think for renovation, so pity we missed that, other than that no complaints whatsoever

Location is great. very quite. The rooms are fantastic.

No restaurant facilities on the site. Our room had a strange smell that we complaint about.

Awful experience. Beautiful building in nice setting. Receptionist was very accommodating in light of all the properties failings. She even offered to ask the couple who booked in before us to swap rooms. However we did not feel this was fair treatment for the other couple and declined the offer. Subsequently she gave us a bottle of wine and some pate. I am trying to obtain a refund via booking.com however to date they have not received a response from the hotel.

Property is not as advertised. My wife and I are tall, therefore we always interrogate the website to ensure that the bed will be big enough and definitely does not have a footboard at the end. None of the pictures provided showed a foot board. However upon arrival we found our bed to be too small and with a footboard which unfortunately for us would make sleep difficult and uncomfortable. I then could not find the air-conditioning (as advertised in the facilities section) to be told that there was none. It was about 34 degrees! Having read the reviews and visited the properties own web site we were looking forward to an evening meal in the restaurant only to be told that it was closed that night as there was a wedding the next day! We had driven 500 miles, it was late and due to the properties location there was nowhere near to eat. There is an honesty bar at the hotel with some very nice snacks at exorbitant prices. So a romantic dinner in a castle did not happen. As to sleep we got none! It was soo hot that we had to open the shutters and window. But the castle is floodlit at night and subsequently our room was like the Blackpool illuminations. At 01:00 things got worse. A rave or suchlike had started somewhere in the countryside around the castle. It was so loud that we had to shut the windows and shutters. The base was so loud that at 05:30 with no sleep at all we had to leave and start another 500 mile drive. Some online research revealed that these raves were a regular occurrence known about by local businesses and the police. Shame we didn't know at least some of the above before considering booking here. There are no staff on site after 19:00 but I doubt there would be anything that they could have done. The bathroom was a wet room but tiny and subsequently everything would get wet when the shower is in use, it was also not vey clean. There were hairs, including pubic on the floor. Also there are exposed sockets on the wall of the wet room.

Hotel was great. Loved the kitchen and the ability to prepare your own meal. And honesty bar. Location and views were stunning for us.

Main patio seating area was unkempt with glass on the floor and tables were grubby. Not sure though if this was the responsibility of the hotel or the Bodega so didn’t let it affect my review.

Staying in a faux castle.The restaurant being unexpectedly closed was a happy accident as we enjoyed using the guest kitchen to prepare our own food and eating on the terrace.

There was nothing not to like

Beautiful setting, lovely grounds and pool, spacious stylish room with a quirky wet room. The staff were welcoming and the breakfast delicious. There was a good selection of bars and restaurants in nearby Toro. It was a perfect stopover en route to Galicia.

The room was very beautiful, every detail thought through. Bed was very comfortable. Very quiet, you can truly rest.Breakfast was delicious, home made and served to you. Beatriz and her colleague were very friendly and helpful.The pool gives it that little extra to cool down on a hot day but also to relax sitting by it.The views from the Castle are spectacular.We would not hesitate to come back.

You are NOT a hotel in the current world. No staff. No restaurant. You are miss-selling your amenities. An honest kitchen does not reflect the clientele you attract on your website. Our room smelled of drains, our bathroom floor was dirty and full of black hairs. We found black hairs in the bed. Just utterly appalling. And we had the most unwelcoming host we have ever encountered. After an eight-hour drive we found we didn’t have a restaurant. And no staff! A complete joke.

Everything

Everything just perfect. Elegant room in the most beautiful setting in midst vineyards and green hills.Everything perfectly manicured. A real treat

The radiator in my room was leaking and there was water on the floor. It also made a lot of noise. The girl from the reception cleared the water and swept the floor and there was no more noise. Unfortunately when I came back in the evening there was the same problem and also the noise and in the morning the floor was wet. But that’s really the only thing I can say I disliked

Great fun place built and maintained to a high standard. Comfortable room and bed, and a spacious relaxing area overlooking the vineyard.

My fault that I did not correctly read the description but there is no restaurant on site, necessitating a 15 minute drive to Toro.

an experience we will never forget , outstanding building, gardens and room

no available restaurant

The facilities and grounds were very nice. We virtually had the place to ourselves. I think there was only two other people staying there.

It’s a bit remote, Toro is a 10 minute drive away. A nice place to sleep, but not a lot of activities other than the daily winery tour.

It’s an old castle!

A bit far from anything. Breakfast could have had a bit more options.
