Friendly service. Good view because the Hotel is almost on the top of the hill. The server in the restaurant is nice. One morning I rushed to attend the Mass and asked her to pack up my food for later used. Honestly it is not allowed. Once she knew my intention, she was happy to do it for me. I have to say thanks. Furthermore the people working in the reception are also helpful and friendly. Always 😀

We liked the comfort and cleanliness of the hotel and its location within easy reach of the historical centre. The food was extremely good and there were beautiful views from the dining room.

This is the second Parador we have stayed in, the pictures don't serve it justice while the highlight is the views from the hill top location, the building amd grounds are more interesting and interiors are far more cohesive and luxurious in feel than the pictures suggest, and are not dated or worn. We enjoyed a lovely meal, though note service starts after 9pm, with a great wine selection and they were happy for us to take our unfinished bottle back to our room. Room was comfortable and spacious with a balcony overlooking the hills and valley below. Decent breakfast eith good selection. Above average for the usual buffet fare. Parking is on street outside, but very safe given the quiet location. Some great driving roads in the area as the car park also reflected. We booked this over the one in Olite which we would definitely do again due to the location and warm staff.

I very much liked the professionalism of the front desk staff. They were willing to help and had excellent manners. I also liked the cleanliness of my room. I did not like the rudeness of the host at our dining experience, the man made us feel unwanted and stupid just because we did not speak fast enough.

We liked the quiet historic location. Welcome at reception could have been friendlier but we appreciated being able to book in early. Our lunch there was a lovely surprise. Excellent. Although felt dining room due to size made you want to whisper as not busy. Overall a lovely quality hotel but a bit staid due to age of clientele. Magnificent thunder and lightning storm at night across surrounding hills!

The town was very sleep. A great place to get away from it all. We had a mix up with the reservation and did not get the triple room necessary. The staff was accommodating of changing our room, but was a bit disappointed that we were charged for the correction. We ate at the cafe and enjoyed the selection.

The hotel itself and reception staff were both good. Staff in the restaurant appeared to be running between tables and literally dropping off courses before running to next table. Really not up to Four Star standard of service

Not in Zaragoza
Great hotel in a small isolated hilltop village with long range views and stone walkways. This hotel is not in Zaragoza ( probably 1 1/2 hrs away) and is a destination unto itself

The hotel is located on the edge of a medieval town and allows for easy walking to the sites therein. Parador has an excellent restaurant, the rooms were nicely appointed and the staff was great; all adding up to a perfect stay. The town itself has several restaurants, bars and places of interest. We ate lunch at La Cocina del Principal and had the tasting menu, superb, and the service was exceptional.

Perfect place to daydream about living in history
Staying in a castle within a walled-in village that still has houses and a school was dreamy! Our room was really nice with a picturesque view, a nice bathroom, and a queen bed. We spent the morning exploring the village, walking along the cobblestone streets up to the bell tower, admiring the panoramic views everywhere. Beware that nothing opens until 11, not even the cafe in the hotel.

Air conditioning is controlled centrally so our room was warmer than we wanted. We were told that all rooms were set at a comfortable temp of 23 centrigrade and we wouldn’t like it lower! Food in the restaurant was disappointing. Check in was very bureaucratic and unnecessarily long. Good building and location.

WHAT A DREAM PLACE!! LOVED THE LOCATION: RIGHT ON THE MEDIEVAL TOWN WERE FERNANDO DE ARAGON WAS BORN, LOT OF HISTORY AND BEAUTIFUL TOWN. MY HUSBAND AND I WERE ENCHANTED WITH THIS PLACE, YOU REALLY FEEL YOU ARE IN ANOTHER TIME. EXPLORE, WALK AROUND TOWN. THERE ARE ONLY 5 RESTAURANTS AND TWO HOTELS. A REAL HIDDEN GEM.

Excellent accommodations in a medieval wonderland
This was our second time visiting Sos and our first time staying overnight. We were thrilled to stay at the Parador as it is situated at The north end of town that affords an excellent view over Sos and the surrounding valley. Our room was quiet, comfortable and well-maintained. The easy and free parking was a plus as other accommodation options can’t offer this. The town is a joy to explore and the Parador makes an excellent home base.

The Parador is a beautifully maintained and clean hotel. However, the front desk staff were ‘grumpy’ and unwelcoming.

Remarkable quality in a beautiful location.
This was our second stay in Sos but the first in the parador. Despite the hilltop illage location the hotel is easily accessible and well signposted. There is ample safe and free parking close to it and it is possible to unload at the entrance. The friendly reception staff speak English and readily offer advice. The parador’s public areas are well appointed with interesting displays and furniture and the bedrooms and bathrooms are very comfortable with glorious views over the surrounding countryside. We did not eat at the hotel so cannot comment on the restaurant. After returning home my wife discovered that she had lost a necklace but was then delighted to be told that the hotel had found it for her. Their efficiency is much appreciated.

Lovely hotel
This hotel is a lovely hotel with comfortable beds and clean bathroom. The only disappointment was a small one but we had dinner in the restaurant as well as breakfast and we were not allowed to sit in the terrace to eat either meal. The food was very good though.

Lovely historic building very quiet setting. All good but we booked 2 nights here solely to relax after a road trip around northern Spain and there is a beautiful terrace which unfortunately does not get the sun and nowhere else with chairs outside despite a terrace at the back so it was too windy and cold to sit and read

Nothing to complain about. We chose half board and had good food & good service at both meals. Breakfast in particular was one of the best we had in Spain. The room was comfortable and parking in the public park just below the Parador seemed quite safe.

Amazing hilltop village and a beautiful hotel worth good views across to Pyrenees foothills. Watched kites, booted eagles and short toed eagles on nearby hillsides.
