Hotel Albarracin

“Living on the edge”

We stayed here for four nights in April, our room overlooked the road to the tunnel under the town, the drop must have been nearly 100m, but was worth it for the view, we sat on the balcony each evening with the star overhead.

We stayed here for four nights in April, our room overlooked the road to the tunnel under the town, the drop must have been nearly 100m, but was worth it for the view, we sat on the balcony each evening with the star overhead. Breakfast was in the special bar, down from the first floor, out into the street, in through next door, down two flights of steps, across the terrace and down another flight of steps. It was OK going down, but a hike getting back up. But you get used to it.

The hotel is situated right at the entrance of the old town, which makes it a perfect spot to explore the old town, the remparts and all the sights. Our room was comfortable and facing away from the town, which reduced the noise from the parties going on intown. Breakfast was a buffet with plenty of choices.

“Faded charm, great views with a glamorous past…”

Faded charm and quite dated decor but very friendly with a great past and unbeatable views … and that is what makes Hotel Albarracín a charming place to stay.

Faded charm and quite dated decor but very friendly with a great past and unbeatable views … and that is what makes Hotel Albarracín a charming place to stay. In our modest room (where Queen Sophia stayed) the windows/doors opened wide to a panorama and soundscape that was wonderful…. Which we appreciate may not be possible at colder times of year…. but at colder times, the hotel would be very cosy when all outside is chilled. Also, it is easy to drive close to the well signposted hotel and unload before parking down below for €4 for 24hrs. This makes Hotel Albarracín a short walk to all the restaurants and sites…. which are pretty much at the same level and quite a bit above! Other hotels may also have great views and be at the same level but are not as accessible for cars/luggage … or they are at river valley level which means quite a climb to get to the town. Thus, if you are not as mobile as you would ideally like to be … this accessibility is another important factor that makes Hotel Albarracín attractive. Breakfast is pretty good too and from what we heard from other guests, dinner is fine. Although there are many, many places to choose from for dinner in Albarracín.

“Great location, lovely view, faded hotel, problems with wifi”

This hotel is quaint, faded with spectacular views. Staff was uneven from very helpful to diffident and uninterested. Our major disappointment is that wifi does not work with Apple products. One receptionist said it had been like that for a few months at least. At least he tried to help. Another st… more

This hotel is quaint, faded with spectacular views. Staff was uneven from very helpful to diffident and uninterested. Our major disappointment is that wifi does not work with Apple products. One receptionist said it had been like that for a few months at least. At least he tried to help. Another staff member tried to charge extra for a breakfast already included. She was unabashed when shown the receipt that included breakfast. Towels could use refreshing (thin). But the location is excellent and fine for a night.
