Hotele z: Gym w Castilla-La Mancha, Spain

Staying at Hotel Eurostars Palacio Buenavista felt like a quiet retreat. The little town itself is peaceful and noticeably cleaner than many other Spanish towns I’ve visited, which immediately set a pleasant tone for the stay. Everything felt orderly and calm, without the usual bustle. One thing I appreciated right away was the underground car park located directly beneath the hotel. It made arriving by car very convenient. From there, you take a lift up to the ground floor where reception is located, and then switch to another lift to reach your room. It’s a small detail, but the process felt organized and smooth. I arrived around noon, well before check-in time, and although my room wasn’t ready yet, the staff kindly allowed me to use the hotel facilities in the meantime. That flexibility made the early arrival feel easy rather than inconvenient. When I finally entered the room, it was exactly as the photos had promised—spacious, bright, and comfortable. There’s always a small risk that pictures online oversell reality, but in this case, the room truly lived up to expectations. During my stay, the local temperature was around 17–21°C, which was quite pleasant outside. However, the heating inside the hotel felt a bit too strong, making the room warmer than necessary at times. It wasn’t unbearable, but I did find myself wishing for a little more control over the temperature. The only other area that felt slightly underwhelming was the gym. It wasn’t unusable, but the equipment did look a bit dated. A refurbishment would definitely elevate the experience and better match the overall standard of the hotel. Overall, Hotel Eurostars Palacio Buenavista offered a peaceful setting, practical conveniences, and a room that delivered on its promise—just with slightly overenthusiastic heating and a fitness area that could use a refresh.

We were surprised to encounter major renovation to the front terrace which reduced the car parking availability and created a lot of white/grey dust best to avoid the terrace area altogether but pack a clothes brush anyway as there are none in the room. Garage parking is advertised in Reception as €25/day but due to reduced free parking there was no charge. All staff are very obliging and professional and appear pleased to ensure your time there is enjoyable. The building has been repurposed over the decades but as a hotel it is both dignified and comfortable. A vending machine dispensing bottles of water would be useful. During the 2 night stay we took breakfast lunch and dinner and whilst the food is not great it is good. Parador de Cuenca is a great example of the brand but as we are only a few into their Spanish estate and with another 88 to visit we sadly don't have time to return.

Everything’s great, just a bit far from the Old Town, but it’s got all the facilities you need

It's not far from Toledo's old town, and the parking lot is large and free. The lobby is really spacious, with indoor and outdoor swimming pools. The elevators are old and a bit noisy. The room decor is rather dated, and the pillowcases had stains. Breakfast was crowded; there wasn't a single Asian face, only white people, mostly older.

Hotel de polígono, limpio y cómodo. Todo muy correcto, cama y almohada cómoda. Cuentan con un mini gimnasio. Los empleados muy amables. Algo que no me gustó es que el personal de limpieza hablara por walkie talkie, hace mucho ruido y te despierta.

The location is excellent, just a 10-minute walk from the main gate. The room was spacious and the air conditioning was great. The service was attentive; the front desk told us that there were free parking spaces in the orange parking area on the street in front of the building until 10:00 AM the next day. Turn right after exiting the building, walk to the main road, then turn right again; there's a small Chinese-owned supermarket where bottled water is very cheap.

I made a last-minute decision to fly from Amsterdam to Madrid and then stop by Toledo. I booked this hotel on the bus from Madrid to Toledo; it was already 10 PM local time, and the booking was incredibly fast, confirmed instantly. I later learned this was through Ctrip's instant booking service. The hotel has a 24-hour front desk, which is much better than many small hotels that require a password to access floors. The hotel has an excellent location, right next to the cathedral. The overall design is very stylish, clean and tidy, and there are many rooms. The bed and pillows are very comfortable, not the floppy kind, and very new. There's a bathtub 🛁

Generally the stay was great. However the actual room was not the same as what was shown in the picture. It’s actually much smaller with much smaller balcony. We were quite displeased about it. Nonetheless the stay was good

The instance has been good. The comfort of the bed, pillows, location, cleanliness... all good really. The only thing that is strange is that there is no one to receive you. It is a phone that you call to enter and then on a screen to talk to a person to get the information and they give you an access code to the room and the hotel. Yes, it is true that they are there 24 hours a day in case you need something, but hey, I imagine that is the future.

The hotel is very good, it is large and the room we had was very comfortable. The breakfast was impressive and very rich. We hardly used the facilities because the cost of the Spa was very high and the issue of prices and so on was not very clear. The entrance to the hotel and the parking lot are also not very clear, things that are improved with a couple of signs.
