Almanzor is a very nice hotel with spacious rooms close to the nature reserve of the Serra de Gredos which is absolutely great for walking. Our room (and most, as far as we could tell) featured a small private blacony overlooking a large communal terrace. We stayed for two nights, enjoying the half pension service. The dinner service is spectacularly good value - a 3 course meal of very good quality. The hotel staff is very helpful - after our second day we were allowed an extreme late check-out which meant that we could take a shower and change after a hike and before continuing our journey. They also laid out breakfast for us so we could have breakfast before regular service and prepared lunch packets. Really outstanding.

“Perfect location”

We stayed at this hotel as part of a Spainbirds trip. The location is perfect for the area. As an added bonus there is a bird hide in the motel. The food was wonderful. The floors were a little squeaky but overall I enjoyed my stay.

“Superb stay for birders - friendly hosts and excellent value”

We stayed only one night on a stopover to bird in Monfrague NP. We were unlucky with the weather as it snowed. But our hosts more than made up for it. Lolly is a great cook, and they offered a great value package for breakfast and dinner. Her salad was the best we tasted in our 10 days in Spain… lisää

We stayed only one night on a stopover to bird in Monfrague NP. We were unlucky with the weather as it snowed. But our hosts more than made up for it. Lolly is a great cook, and they offered a great value package for breakfast and dinner. Her salad was the best we tasted in our 10 days in Spain! Property has 2 hides, in good condition. The one attached to the main building is in a corner of the accommodation block and attracts passerrines and smaller birds, like tits, robins, woodpeckers, hoopoes and pigeons. The other is a short trek up the back of the property to view raptors and larger birds ... Lolly put out some fresh meat for the vultures, but we were not so lucky, and none came (probably because of the weather). She also provided extra blankets for us to sit out in the rather cold hides! The rooms are adequate and clean. We had a room that opens up directly onto the sundeck - excellent light. The floor boards creak ... but that only adds to the charm of the place. English is spoken ... Lolly is the English speaker. The platformas de gredos is only a short drive away. All in, this is an excellent place to use as a base to visit the Gredos mountains.

“Short birding trip to Sierra de Gredos, June 2017”

What a great place. Situated just outside Navarredonda in the heart of the Sierra de Gredos a few hundred metres from the famous Parador on the same main road. Our room was nice & clean. My companions had rooms that exited straight out onto the large sun terrace. Be sure to ask for one of these if … lisää

What a great place. Situated just outside Navarredonda in the heart of the Sierra de Gredos a few hundred metres from the famous Parador on the same main road. Our room was nice & clean. My companions had rooms that exited straight out onto the large sun terrace. Be sure to ask for one of these if you stay. Food was excellent & quite reasonably priced. June is a fantastic time to visit. Not too hot, fewer people & a lot of the summer migrants (birds - not people) have only recently arrived and are still singing or feeding young. Highly recommended.
