We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay in this amazing castle. Staff were friendly and the restautant served up excellent dinner and breakfast options. We had no issues and would highly recommend this hotel.
The castle was absolutely stunning and the countryside was so beautiful. The accomodations on the other hand were pretty meh.
The carpets throughout the hotel were disgusting. There was no AC. The sheets were made of cardboard.
Breakfast was great and the staff were super nice. So my recommendation? Come here on a day trip but don't stay the night.
We loved our stay in this beautiful castle hotel. The public areas are amazing and the views very lovely. We paid a cheaper rate so the bedroom was simpler than in some of the photos but very comfortable. We loved the dining room and breakfast was fantastic. you need to have a car to travel around as there is not much in the local town though some nice shops and cafes.
The paradore is set in a beautiful castle. The courtyard, public rooms and dining room are stunning. Bedroom more simple with basic wooden furniture with nice bathroom and shower. Worth paying to look round the old church on site and take in the views from the maiden's tower. Breakfast is fantastic buffet.
Amazing place that you can see from far on your approach to it. Located on very top of big hill that tops all soundings. Very specious and nice rooms. Great restaurant (quite expensive but there are other options to eat in near town of Cardona). It is like spending a night in fairytale story. There is free parking in castle and on weekends you can expect a lot of visitors so plan accordingly.

Wonderful place, modern and comfortable inside, while keeping the basic medieval structure. Could use some signals directing walkers where to go.
The parador was really a beautiful place with a lot of charm and great views of the surrounding area. The castle had an interesting history and was well placed on top of the hill to defend it itself when under siege.
The room was large with a large 4 poste bed and a good sized bathroom.
The service was friendly and efficient. The restaurant was was a huge hall with large arches giving great atmosphere.
The food was of very good quality and we enjoyed both breakfast and dinner.
We were on a road trip and had stayed at a number of hotels but this one was clearly the best and in fact the cheapest. It was very good value for money.
This is a classic historic castle and perfect if you want to stay somewhere with real atmosphere. It’s been beautifully restored and a modern hotel is well hidden behind the stone walls. The reception and waiting staff are very professional and attentive.
Just check restaurant opening hours, we stayed off season and they were only open for breakfast and lunch.
This was an incredible parador surrounded by spectacular views and fascinating history. Dining at the parador was really special - excellent breakfast and dinner. Service was excellent and the staff were really friendly. My only complaint would be that the beds are really very hard. If it's possible to add a topper to the mattress to make them more comfortable that would greatly improve the experience.
First time in a Parador hotel and it did not disappoint. Food did not live up to expectations. Getting heavy luggage to your room is a challenge as there is no Porter staff. I look forward to visiting other Parador hotels
We expected that it would be difficult to park, and it was. We didn’t expect the quality of the dining in the castle. The architecture and history in close proximity were excellent.
The place is really beautiful. It's very clean. The staff is very attentive, very polite and kind.
We had breakfast and dinner and everything was delicious.
It's definitely a place to visit and stay.
Staying at el Parador de Cardona was an incredible experience! It is fully authentic and tremendously rich in the history and culture of Spain and Cataluña. Everything — the amenities, the service, the food, the views — were amazing. The staff was exceptionally professional and helpful. Our two-night stay was just what we needed to rest up from the flight from the US and to gear up for the more bustling environment of Barcelona. Touring the salt mine and just walking around the town of Cardona to soak up the atmosphere were also very enjoyable. Cardona and this parador are definitely worth the short drive from Barcelona!
