La Ribera Region 3 Stars Hotels

"Excellent "

"Ras "

"Looks like a castle, but built circa 2001? Seems to be dedicated to wedding events, - squeze as many guests in as possible. Large, impressive gardens at back but not accessible to 'ordenary' guests. We stayed beginning of April; not very full at all but ended up next door to family inc. small children shouting and running about, had to knock on door at 10:30 p.m. Woke up by dog barking at 6:15 a.m. left 7 a.m. without breakfast. Staff friendly but bar staff only spoke Spanish. Receptionist on checking out said nothing when we said how annoyed we were that in a hotel with apparently so many empty rooms we ended up between a playroom and a dog kennel. ( I didn't use them exact words but I now wish I had.) "

"With a language barrier it can be difficult but it works. A number do speak English quite well and if there is a comprehension problem they work together as a team to figure it out."
