토레 델 마르케스 호텔 스파 & 와이너리 - 소형 럭셔리 호텔

Drive to location took 2h along windy mountain roads which was intense and somewhat challenging. Location and Room stunning. Spa too expensive but fantastic when booked. Should really be included in price. Restaurant was somewhat disappointing. The food was good but over priced (bottles of house water were charged additionally) and restaurant was understaffed.

It was a great quiet location, gorgeous views and excellent service. The staff was incredible and super helpful and friendly!

Let me start by saying that this is a beautiful hotel and does have some wonderful amenities and a great restaurant. The hotel is beautifully done with excellent landscaping and breathtaking views of the area. The food is also very good and they have a great chef. We also really enjoyed the pool. With that being said, this hotel is in no way a 5 start hotel. If it wants to taut that it is one, thenI I have to judge/review accordingly. Things that were lacking: 1. A sense of organization. Our first night at dinner, we waited 15 minutes for someone to seat us and another 25 minutes before we even received water or acknowledgment. They also “misplaced” our car keys. They’d been accidentally given to another hotel guest. Luckily they figured it out and resolved the issue. I will give them credit, they did go out of their way to ensure we were comfortable while we waited for the keys but this shouldn’t have happened. 2. Air conditioning. The temperature outside ranged from the low 70s F to mid 80s during the day. The A/C units struggled to keep the inside hotel room temperature and main dining room at or below 73F. I mentioned this to the front desk twice. They looked at it a assured the changed the settings and it would improve. Never happened. 3. Not the same experience for all. I saw multiple guests get different treatment. Minus a quick synopsis about the hotel, we were not shown around, nor did they offer any information about the spa or winery. I guess it pays to walk around with a selfie stick. 4. The smell and the bugs. I do understand this use the be and partially still is an equestrian location. It is wonderful the see the beautiful horses running around; however, it seems the stalls are either too close or downwind of the hotel and can be smelt. In addition to the smell, the flies are awful and limited our time outside. Not as big of a deal for me but less of a romantic setting for my wife. 5. Lack of service for a boutique 5 start hotel. I do think they were possibly short staffed. The bartenders had no idea about drinks and had to review a book to mix them. We had some help with our bags on the way in but nothing on the way out. No turn down service. Again one night, the dinner service was awful. I will say it was much better the second night. Really no one at the pool for service. 6. Lastly and minor things. Coffee cups on rooms not cleaned well and bath/shower combo were odd and harder to get in and out of. Overall, I’d say this is an okay possible 4 star hotel. Is it a beautiful place to stay, with nice rooms, and a pleasant staff. The restaurant is really nice and I had some great dishes. Would I stay here again, probably not. Is it worth staying if you’re passing through, maybe not.

Idyllic setting with far reaching views, lovely architecture and room design. Excellent food with fresh local ingredients, own wine from the estate. All the staff were friendly and accommodating. It’s quite a drive from Valencia, but once up in the mountains the scenery is lovely. There is a nice pool and spa, but the outdoor pool was closed when we visited in late October.

This hotel has been beautifully crafted and in a very gorgeous location. The views are spectacular and it is a great base for exploring the region. Unfortunately, I had planned to spend a lot of time with my book in my room overlooking this amazing view (and expected to do this as picture of the room booked indicated), and instead the room had a window the size of a large book (and skylights to let in light). Room was small & lovely but the view was the reason we chose the hotel so this was disappointing. I also don't love a bathroom that has a glass entry door and no privacy. Bath itself was lovely and bed was comfortable. The other issue was the heating - the heating did not work well enough to cool the room (being at the top of the building it is probably the warmest room) and I had to sleep with a wet towel on me to make it through the night. You don't expect this at a 5 star hotel. Bring your own tissues too as these aren't provided. Breakfast was okay but hectic and staff frazzled and unfriendly, but the reception staff were just lovely and very helpful. Welcome glass of wine was a lovely touch, and it truly is a beautiful property.

3 night stay in July during a heatwave, 2 adults and a 3 year old. Half Board. We had an excellent time at this hotel which I found hard to fault. Lots to see and do, and plenty of places to relax as well. Starting with the room, we had a Super King size bed, and our son was on a separate Single-size sofa bed against the wall, between which there was plenty of room to come and go. Lots of room for luggage, and a good sized bathroom with a private toilet and hidden bath (accessed through the shower). The room was the perfect blend of contemporary design and historic touches and with great views - super luxurious. The only issue we experienced was A/C that was not able to get the room below about 24C, not a big deal except my wife was 6 months pregnant so did feel it - and in fairness it was a heatwave with outside temps well in excess of 30C, the staff provided an air cooler / fan that did help somewhat. The grounds are stunning, lots of shady places to sit to observe the incredible vistas, the landscaping and plantings are lush and neat despite the dry climate, the pool was a real highlight - the perfect way to cool down in the heat. The on-site service was excellent, beers on tap by the pool, sandwiches in the lounge, gin & tonics on the lawn - all delivered promptly and with great service. Staff mostly multi-lingual with good English. The restaurant was above expectations, and the half board is very generous with no hidden extras except alcohol. The Spanish wine menu was excellent and reasonably priced, we had 3 different bottles all lovely particularly the Granacha blends. Highly recommended and would happily stay again.
