5 star ratingWonderful experience at the Castillo de Monda. We had dinner at the bar, at sunset. Quality cuisine and even better service from Ismael, the waiter who served us. We will repeat the experience

5 star ratingThe hotel is beautifully situated on top of a mountain. Views from the restaurant, bar and room were quite beautiful. Everything is neat and functioning. Breakfast very good with wide choice. In the nearby village of Monda you can easily reach some restaurants and supermarkets (~10 min walk).

Good to know is that, because the hotel is on top of a mountain, the last road to it is very stylish (driving up in 1st gear). Furthermore, well-built road.

Only the food in the restaurant/bar is a bit on the expensive side.
