Hotel Suite Camarena

“Convenient location”

Like many earlier posters, we stayed here to break up our car trip from southern to northern Spain. The location was easy to get to (with help of GPS) and it is about a 20 minute walk to the center of the tourist area.

Like many earlier posters, we stayed here to break up our car trip from southern to northern Spain. The location was easy to get to (with help of GPS) and it is about a 20 minute walk to the center of the tourist area. The hotel staff states it is 15 minutes, but maybe that is true if you know where you are going and walk quickly; not something characteristic of tourists. We had little time in Teruel as we arrived in the evening, but we had a pleasant walk through a nice neighborhood into the old town at night to see the buildings and plazas lighted. The hotel is in a residential neighborhood. We arrived on a Monday in late September, and things seemed quiet; there was some parking on the street directly in front of the hotel so we did not pay for the garage. When we reserved our room (on short notice), we paid a small amount extra to get breakfast. I don't recall the amount but it was about €5-6 for two. It seemed like a bargain even though the breakfast was standard, nothing special. Room was nice, but certainly not fancy. WiFi worked well in the room. The hotel was very quiet during our stay. We only saw two other guests as they were checking-out while we ate breakfast. We had the breakfast room to ourselves. Overall a good stay. and we would consider returning.

“Almost perfect”

This year is the second year I stay in this hotel. Is a 2 x 2 bed room. The only thing it is not correct was the wifi. It was very slow and the signal at bedroom was very low. Clean room, and bathroom. In the first year I stay here, the room was more young.

“Misconceptions Abound! NO Free Parking and NO Free Breakfast...”

Before I get to the positives about the Hotel Suite Camarena Plaza (of which there are a few), there are some things that we need to get out of the way. 1.

Before I get to the positives about the Hotel Suite Camarena Plaza (of which there are a few), there are some things that we need to get out of the way. 1. If you somehow ate a free breakfast, a slice of melon, a drip of pineapple juice or even just a slurp of a cortado, then you must have slipped under the radar of the staff of the Hotel Suite Camarena Plaza. Breakfast is NOT free, it is Euros 7. A cup of coffee? 7 Euros. A full platter of ham, melon, cheese and pastry, a liter of orange juice and 23 cappuccinos? 7 Euros. 2. Parking on-site at the Hotel Suite Camarena Plaza is 10 Euros per night. Repeat, parking is not free on-site at the Hotel Suite Camarena Plaza. Phew. Okay. Now that the misconceptions are out of the way, why stay at the Hotel Suite Camarena Plaza? First, the location. Though it is located outside the heart of what might be considered "touristic" Teruel, the area is a pleasant, bustling neighborhood of residences and businesses. Ample, safe street parking is widely available, and we were able to park our car about 75 feet from the front door of the hotel. The walk to the bridges into the old town of Teruel is about 10 minutes, but very pleasant and provides a lot of opportunities for coffee or tapas stops, if you'd like. Our room was located on the second floor and was huge. A room this size in NYC would easily be $300.00/night, but was 50 Euros a night here. The bathroom was pretty luxurious, with a bathtub that was long and deep enough for this 5'10" girl to completely sprawl out in. The bed was very comfortable, with extra pillows in the closet if needed. There were two air conditioning units, but only one seemed to work (the overhead one), but it was more than sufficient to cool the room. The windows have heavy-duty, light-blocking drapes, so it is very easy to sleep in in complete quiet and darkness. As mentioned by the reviewer who was unfortunately (and terrifyingly! Who needs Dinopark!) trapped in the parking garage (remember, 10 Euros a night for that adventure!), the Hotel Suite Camarena Plaza is VERY reliant on the room key card for access, not only to (and, apparently out of) the garage and the rooms, but also into the hotel itself after-hours. It is not a heavily-staffed hotel, so you might be out of luck if you don't have it (or, in our case one day, if your card becomes demagnetized; fortunately, one of the hotel staff happened to be on our hotel floor when it happened). In all, the room was very comfortable, nearby on-street parking is easy to find, and the location is great from which to explore Teruel and the Aragon region. Just get your cortado and pastry elsewhere (and don't forget your keycard).

“I wasn't crazy about this place....”

Rooms are very basic and no frills. The place needs a makeover and some refreshening. All very dull and drab. Rooms are not quite clean and not quite dirty. However, there's free parking in front, the area is residential and safe and it's a short 12 minute walk to the historic center. Fine for one … lisää
