Great to walk around an active castle. You can put yourself in purples shoes from olden days. Great sunsets.

Well worth a visit. We stayed here on our way to Gibraltar, unfortunately we didn't get to experience the area in full. We thought our 4 year old boy would be so excited to stay in a real castle and we were right. We arrived at dusk and parked in the large parking lot at the southwest edge of town and walked up. You enter as you would any defensive fort, through the massive fortified wall and up the cobbled walkway. The staff were friendly enough, but there was a definite language barrier. We were given a map of the town with directions to the restaurants (which don't open until 8 pm). The room didn't have a cot for my son, a mistake on my part as it turns out, so they moved us to another room with a bed on a small loft type platform, he loved it, we were lucky it wasn't busier I suppose. The rooms are spacious and laid out as best as possible for a modified castle and each seems totally unique in layout. Everything was quite clean and well kept. The furniture seems a bit out of place though, I think with a minor amount of investment in styling and design this place would be at another level. We wonder around the building for a little bit and out on the roof top terrace, where you could clearly see the rock of Gibraltar at night. The breakfast was a waste of time, bring something to eat or head down the mountain, its basically rest stop food in packages. I would have booked directly through their website, but if there was an English version I couldn't find it. We would easily stay here again, but probably for a couple days and explore the area properly.
