Ambroz Valley, Extremadura hotel rooms at the Independent

"The hotel was in a fabulous setting in an old monastery. Notwithstanding its age, it had been modernised sympathetically and had the benefit of historical features with the comforts of modern age. We have stayed with Parador hotels before in Salamanca and feel they offer great value for money."

"No problems at all"

"Loved this hotel so much we booked for two more nights"

"With the exception of an issue with breakfast (which should have been included FOC but we were charged for it at checkout; at the time of writing this is under investigation by Hotels.com), we could not fault the location, the property or its management. It is wonderful and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. A very very minor point but there was no plugs for the kitchen sink - we did enquire but were told there weren't any."

"Very disappointed, the pool was closed, was filthy and looked to be in that state for a LONG time. "

"A well positioned hotel with comfortable beds and good water pressure and hot water. Although we booked a standard room we were allocated one with a big terrace. The views across the valley were lovely. There was an issue over payment which was resolved very quickly and professionally. We had a good (included) breakfast but did not eat supper here as we were too hungry to wait for 9pm when they opened."

"Beautiful hotel & the daily breakfast was amazing! "

"Friendly and helpful staff. Fantastic location right in the centre of the town. "

"Everything was perfect and I have to stress the upgrade I received, by courtesy in the reception, for a room in the main building with very good conditions without any change. The only thing I considered less was the breakfast that had a few variety of food."
