Top El Caracol Hotel Reviews

El Mesón del Marqués

El Mesón del Marqués

8/10 Good
"This was a very pretty colonial style hotel; the location is everything you could ask for in Valladolid and we stayed comfortable in our room. Good AC. The restaurant was delicious for both breakfast and dinner (and very pretty to look at too). The only thing that keeps this from being 5 stars for me was our room location; we were on the ground floor right near the pool and restaurant and it could be very loud at times. I am a pretty heavy sleeper so it wasn't the worst for me, but my husband is not and he had a hard time."

"Great hotel in a quaint little town. Only drawback was the Saturday night we stayed there was an extremely loud disco in the large, somewhat open-air building just next door. It began around 9pm and did not stop until 4am. The bass made it impossible to ignore it, and impossible to sleep. I don't know if this happens every Saturday night, or any other nights, and I don't think it's related to the hotel, but beware: you might be kept up by the noise!"

"Very nice place to stay. The only beef was the lighting in the stairs leading down to the hot baths were dim and my girlfriend fell down the stairs and fractured her big toe. Staff and everything else was good. No microwaves in the rooms. Nice amenities."
