    This is not going to bother most travellers, however evening vespers was ruined through the use of unnecessary micro-phones.

    Excellent quiet location with great views over Embalse de Yesa. Rooms are functional with an en-suite with excellent shower. Good, and reasonably priced meals with excellent local wine. Pleasant welcome.

    The breakfasts were adequate but not as extensive a choice as we had in other Spanish hotels. The staff made no real attempt to establish any relationship with the guests. The hotel evening meal was a great disappointment as there was no choice at all, so we only had one meal there in the evening and for the rest of our 6 night stay used the monastery cafeteria for a light snack in the evening.

    The hotel is in a stunning location and the monastery buildings are beautiful. It was a great base to explore a whole range of places in Navarre. Our room was very peaceful with only the noise of the owls calling at night. We also enjoyed visiting a couple of the church services to hear the monks singing Gregorian chant which is a very ethereal experience.

    We opted for dinner in the restaurant but wished we had not; a set menu of 3 courses with no choice which, apart from the soup, was inedible and we found out next day on paying our bill that the dinner was very expensive, but no idea of price was given beforehand.

    An amazing and interesting place to stay, full of history, and in a stunning location. The room was very nice with en-suite bathroom, clean and everything one needs for a night or two, including WiFi and air-con. Parking is included on site. We attended a tour of the ancient part of the monastery which we would recommend. We would also recommend eating out or in the bar.

    unique hotel in 12th century monastery with very friendly staff

    Our stay was a bit early in the season, which meant the restaurant was not open yet. So we had to drive some 15 minutes to the village, where there was a local restaurant we could eat (friendly and pretty good - but not for vegans....). There also was a quite nasty smell in the room, we were explained this was probably from the sealer that was used to treat the wood before the season started. It might disappear later on in the season.

    Amazing stay in a 12th century monastery surrounded by woods and beautiful views. Very friendly staff.

    The cloister gets very windy at night and and the noise of the wind gust can be annoying. This can be easily sorted with earplugs. The not so good part is that I woke up to little insects in my bed. The bedsheets and room in looked very clean, but was unfortunate to find those in the morning. I said it in reception and it was all solved with a sincere apology and a free breakfast. Thank you.

    The location is superb. It has parking, and I was allowed to park my motorcycle next to the building. The place itself is beautiful and totally recommend the sung mass.

    The food in the evening was very poor and could so easily be made better. Why serve a gristly steak when for the same money you could make a local stew ?? An apple for pudding or a slice of very dry shop bought chocolate cake wasn’t acceptable for the set menu price if €21 I feel. The salmon starter was good , just needs someone to look at the menu and perhaps simplify it and improve the quality. The food let down the rest of the amazing stay.

    The exceptional location. Attending the service to hear the monks doing their Gregorian chanting was amazing. The room was above expectations with a large comfy bed and large en-suite.

    The food was mediocre at best. For dinner, my entrecôte (beef steak) was about half gristle. My wife's "fresh" fish actually stank and was inedible. Breakfast was very ordinary. Our room, though comfortable, had a strong smell of wood varnish that was distracting, and the ceiling fan produced an annoying sound.

    Great, friendly staff. A fascinating old structure perched on a hillside with fantastic views over the valley and lake near Yesa. Extremely peaceful and quiet location (once the buses of tourists left for the night). Witnessing the Vespers service in the chapel was a very special experience.

    It is a great location in terms of the views and quietness, but you need your personal transport to get there. Parking is available on spot and is free. The hotel provides breakfast and dinner possibility, so if you don't want to drive elsewhere to get food, it is quite convenient. There are also some hiking trails starting right at the doorstep so the place is nice for nature-lovers. Wifi is good and reliable. The room was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Very quiet in general although the walls are thin and you hear everything that is happening in the hallway, or when someone is opening their door with a key. Didn't disturb me much, thiough.
