We loved the setting, which gives peace and comfort of the bed, room and heating, plus breakfast, with homemade pastries from Klaus the hotel owner, and his friendliness and human quality and kindness of him and his employees. We loved your pets, and we find it great that you take such good care of the animals that others abandon. I'll go again. Good luck.

After a full day visiting Avila, we crashed there for the night and it was perfect. Nice isolated place (easy accesible by car), really kind owners and a very good restaurant (for both dinner and beeakfast). We were almost alone in the posada, so we got a really good sleep.

We stayed for 2 nights at the end of February to visit Avila. The hotel was easy to find located on the old road to Tolado. The reception was upstairs (bedrooms downstairs) and we received a warm welcome from Maggie and Klaus. Bedrooms are individual and tastefully decorated and coordinated. Think logis (as in France) not chain hotel. Wifi was good and free. We were the only people staying which was a great shame. Breakfasts were really good with plenty of choice and our evening table d'hotel menu was country cooking at its best. The Avila speciality of chuleton beef was delicious and the mousse cheesecake and apple strudel were to die for. Car parking was secure - the gate was locked at night. Our dog enjoyed the quiet rural walks outside the grounds. We travelled from the med and turned off the A4 towards Tolado then on through beautiful countryside to Avila. It probably added about half an hour to our journey time to San Sebastián and avoided Madrid. Well worth the deviation and I would recommend it to any traveller heading north. My only criticism and this was very minor was that there was not a working surface which may have attracted business users (somewhere to easily plug in computer and use it). Great stay - thank you.

It's not a nice place as a residence. Humidity and lack of cleaning in general. The rooms are flush in front of the Asador parking lot which is just above the rooms. I don't know how you've been given a tourist licence. They themselves are aware that what they offer does not have the right quality.

As soon as we entered the Hotel, one of the waiters greeted us and immediately, on the orders of his boss I suppose, he took out the bill for the rooms so that we could make the payment in advance, I responded that we would like to see them first and after communicating it to his boss , he immediately came very grumpy, with a German accent and very unpleasant, he told us that if we didn't pay before, we could find another hotel because that was legal. Just because of his mannerisms and his intransigent and aggressive attitude, we would have had to leave through the door, if it were not for the urgency of the moment and the 600 km that we had left behind us. And perhaps it would be the best thing we would have done because in the room area -floor below the restaurant- the smell was unbearable, dark like a basement with hardly any lighting, the air conditioning did not work in our room, except in the bathroom, the totally deformed mattress sank towards the center, so we spent the night Worst hotel night of our lives. If we had wanted to watch television we would have had to bring binoculars because of how tiny the screen was. They also didn't have the courtesy to leave us in the bathroom. some small bottle of shower gel. In short, the horrible experience, with the deplorable personal treatment and the generally embarrassing facilities. Not even the food was good. This hotel-restaurant is probably only maintained due to its location adjacent to the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Sonsoles and in a remote area of the city of Ávila. Terrible and not recommended, to be forgotten.

A delightfully quirky dog friendly hotel, well positioned for an overnight Stop when travelling from the UK on the Plymouth -Santander ferry and on route to the south. Plenty of free parking.
The couple who run this fine establishment are friendly and helpful although if you speak no Spanish whatsoever it could be tricky, but not impossible. The experience will be worth it. Nice double room with modern en-suite. Great shower - always one of my tests of a hotel. We ate dinner in-house which was well cooked and delicious. The definite cherry on the cake has to be the the amazing spread that was breakfast. Everything you could want, fruit, cold meats, cheese, bread and croissants and then came out the bacon and scrambled eggs. Not needed but delicious. A 5* breakfast.
The beds are hardish but in our experience Spanish beds are, weirdly. The dogs are welcome in all areas of the hotel but they are also happy for you to leave them alone in the room which many hotels aren’t. The hotel does have at least 8 resident cats though which might be a challenge to some dogs but again the owners are very laid back about the whole animal interaction thing.
Charming hotel we will certainly be returning to on our next trip.

I don't know what we expected when we booked this restaurant with rooms except that the price was exceptionally modest. Pleasantly situated above Avila a short drive out of town there is plenty of parking next to the main building. Rooms are on the bottom floor with the restaurant and large tapas bar on the top floor. We arrived with restaurant still busy with the late Spanish lunch crowd. There is no official reception you check in at the bar where we were met by Maggie the host. No problem in checking in although Maggie does not speak English just Spanish and German. One of the helpful waiters was roped in to provide the English translation. No problems - all very friendly.
The rooms were one Floor down - no lift if that is a problem for you. They were what I would call rural style but with modern bathroom attached (shower no bath) Perfectly clean. We have double bed which could have been more comfortable but for the price ok. The bar a large room with classic Spanish style decoration provided a large selection of tapas and although we had booked the restaurant would have been great to eat and drink and locals obviously thought so too.
The restaurant is modern and obviously popular (the reason we planned to stay there). The evening we stayed we were the only guests hence reference to tapas earlier. However we were made welcome and served by a charming waitress. full marks to her and her pretty good attempts at English. Food was good if not inspiring but we did play safe on the menu.
Breakfast was coffee and toast. We were asked if we wanted something more but we were happy to depart. Overall we had a good experience reflected in the price.

Beautifully situated in the grounds of Sonsoles sanctuary this hotel was just what we like. Welcoming staff showed us to a good sized room with all facilities. There was no aircon but even though the daytime temperature hit 35 the room was pleasantly cool. There is an attractive bar well patronised by visitors to the sanctuary. We were the only diners in the restaurant but the 16€ menu was excellent. One thing to remember, a lot of salt used in cooking, take a bottle of water to your room, we needed it! This place is not luxurious, it is just a decent quality attractive place to stay. Oh and breakfast was good too.

On the edge of wild granite mountains and the city of Avila. After a month on the Mediterranean we drove north and experienced a drop in temperature of 20 degrees. No matter, the scenery was amazing. The hotel is part of a hermitage, a site of pilgrimage and very tranquil. Having said that, we watched Madrid loose an important football match to Barcelona, so the whole bar was up in arms. Rooms are more than adequate; the restaurant is great . I started with green beans and iberica ham, then the world famous Avila steak. My wife had prawns followed by pork in a blue cheese sauce. A local co-op wine was interesting but not spectacular. I like this place a great deal : thanks to Carlos for the service.

Exceptional, Professional & Very Friendly Proprietors Maggie Cardo & Klaus Bubeck will personalty greet you and attend to your every need. The Restaurant will astound you with their meals, value and service. The room that we were provided was quite spacious, well appointed and most comfortable! The attached bathroom appeared grand spanken, absolutely new and completed very nicely! The room was lit well, and had a wonderful view. The parking is spacious on the property. It was very quiet in the evening even though the restaurant is just right up stairs. Having the restaurant so close was like being home having our kitchen nearby. This hotel is on the grounds of Our Lady of Sonsoles. The grounds are intriguing, inviting, relaxing, historic and welcoming. This is an exceptional property! One of a kind! Most suited for those who are driving into Avila although there are walking paths that will take you there as well. There are Incredible sunsets in the evening with a great view of Avila. I can't say enough about this property and Maggie Cardo & Klaus Bubeck who run it! We were total charmed by our visit with them and would return without question!! I miss them already!! Of all the places we stayed in Spain over the last 6 weeks, I will remember Posada Restaurante Sonsoles most fondly of all!! This is an absolute recommended property. Posada Restaurante Sonsoles is simply Enchanting!! Thanks so much for a great visit!!!
