Villafranca del Bierzo Hotel with Pool

"The hotel is situated right above the town (kinda on the outskirts), which means that it's got free and ample parking, feels very in touch with the natural surroundings (even though it's next to the highway, which you'd never know because it's so quiet), and is spacious throughout. The highlight of the stay was the pool/sauna area! Highly recommend! There are two pools and a sauna, all of which are similar to the kinds you'll see at other Parador properties, and are wonderful. Use of the facilities is included in your hotel fee, which isn't always the case at Paradors, so I highly suggest taking advantage of it while you're there. Not many eateries around, however, so you'll likely have to go into town if you want a meal outside of the hotel. We did breakfast, which was a bit expensive for what you got (~20 euros per person), but convenient and fine. We stayed here for three days while we explored the area and took half day trips out to other spots, and it was a perfect hotel for that, too. Finally, the price of the room per night was more than affordable for what you got. I recommend staying here if you're in the area."
