El Espino Hotels

"Over night stay on the way to Leon. The hotel is set in the mountains. We found it to be charming, extremely well kept, and a nice change from city based hotels. The welcome was warm and it was nice to have a beer with the locals while we watched a little soccer. "

"Check-in took some time as there was an elderly couple in charge that seemed more interested in watching TV. The rooms were OK and you could get a beer of coffee at the bar, but that was it. Restaurant not open for evening meal or breakfast. I think we were the only guests, so the place was very quiet. Luckily the local town had many facilities that we used for eating & socialising. Not the best stay of our trip, but good if you only require a room. Looks as though this was once a busy, popular hotel that has lost its Mojo."

"Awesome rooms , very good host."

"A slightly odd place. It’s not like a standard hotel. Each “room” consists of a garage with a typical hotel room above it, you drive round and into your private garage, close the electric door and go up a private stairs to a small landing outside your room, there is a door into the overall building but this is for staff only. Guests always come and go via their garage. The hotel doesn’t provide any food or drink options but within a few minutes walk is a 24/7 motorway service station with a very nice cafe servicing good quality and value food. There is also a small shop attached. It was a very convenient and secure parking for our motorbikes and overall a pleasant stopover. "

"Staff and service doesn’t exist. You have to ask everything by WhatsApp. They didn’t answer the phone."

"Check in by machine "

"As we stopped here for one night on the Camino, the facilities and staff were great. The room had a beautiful view, the bed was comfortable, and the breakfast was early and helpful as we were walking the Camino! "
