"Our stay at Hostal del Cardenal was lovely. The suite was perfect for our family of four and had a large balcony with beautiful views of the medieval town. We especially enjoyed the garden restaurant in the evenings. The setting was enchanting and the sampling of local cuisine delicious and the service outstanding. We understand the restaurant is not affiliated with the hotel even though they share the garden."

"We were at Hostal del Cardenal for a few days last November. It was recommended by a dear friend of ours with homes in both Britain and Nerja. He travels widely and I value his recommendations. We were very pleased both with the hotel and the restaurant and the location near the escalators to the town. When we are in Spain again we shall stay there and we have recommended it to our friends."

"Lovely hotel in a fabulous location - quiet room - beautiful dining outside even if the food was slightly ordinary."

"Wonderful hotel. Would recommend it. Also enjoyed the restaurant in the garden though it is not affiliated with the hotel."

"We enjoyed our stay at the Hostal del Cardenal very much. The room was a little small, but comfortable, and the ambience of the hotel was charming. We didn't take breakfast there as we preferred to go into the town. We enjoyed the location, and the lovely garden area. It was very easy to take the escalator up to the centre of Toledo. The staff was courteous, efficient and helpful.
Although the restaurant within the grounds was not attached to the Hotel we felt that this was a plus. We had dinner there one night and it was excellent. We will definitely stay there again, and would recommend it to our friends."

"We LOVED the Hostel del Cardenal!!! EVERYTHING was perfect....the room, the breakfast, the restaurant. We found it difficult to park the car and get our luggage from the car up all those steps to the hotel, but it was worth it. As a matter of fact, I left a favorite pair of walking shoes at the Hotel, and the hotel was good enough to forward them on to the hotel we were staying at in Madrid. When I arrived in Madrid, the shoes were there waiting for me!
We have nothing but the highest accolades for the Hostel del Cardenal."

"We loved the hotel. Stayed there 6 nights while visiting our son. It was a perfect location for visiting the city without the hassle of driving into the old city itself. The car park couldn't be more convenient for this hotel.
There was a wedding at the hotel one night, and we feared it would be noisy, but they kept the noise away from the rooms, and we really appreciated that.
The staff were helpful without being intrusive. We would love to stay there again."
|
"We did have a wonderful time. One thing that might be noted is that the hotel is located up quite a set of stairs, and cars must be moved to parking rather far away as of 8:00 a.m. That means that this hotel may not be perfect for less mobile guests.
However, the hotel staff were quite friendly."

"The hotel was very well located & was a pleasure to stay at. The stafff were friendly & helpful. The gardens are lovely & the restaurant was amazing. Highly recommended."

"Hostal del Cardenal was one of our favorite hotels on the trip - easy to find, great parking, gorgeous grounds, fabulous restaurant and bar (who opened early to bring drinks, olives, and chips to their travel weary guests, plus served us on the patio).
The rooms are old, but it`s in the castle walls and very historical. Beds are comfortable, baths sufficient, clean, and updated. Desk clerk had an attitude, but all the restaurant staff was wonderful. It's in the center of everything - we walked to the entire city - old and new.
One of the best dinners on the trip, with an adequate breakfast buffet too - cool cappucino machine. I would highly recommend it."

" Our friends and we had two rooms for one night and our only regret was that we had not scheduled our trip for a longer stay in Toledo and at the Hostal del Cardenal. My wife and I traveled on this latest trip to Spain for four weeks throughout the country and I can tell you that our stay at the Hostal del Cardenal was one of the two or three most pleasant and memorable of all the places we stayed. The room was well-appointed, private and very comfortable; the well-attended gardens are beautful and provide an inviting and tranquil atmosphere; the restaurant menu was varied in its tasteful offerings and the preparation of the food was of the very best, also enhanced by the attention of excellent waiters.The managers at the front desk were most hospitable and helpful.
Over all, by the way, the total charges for our stay were well worth the expense, given the quality of the establishment. In fact, we thought that its excellent location and its features made it quite reasonable. We have already recommended the fine Hostal del Cardenal to other friends, and hope to return there ourselves in the future, next time for a longer period."

"The room was simple, beautiful, elegant, and tasteful with lovely views into the garden. The service was entirely satisfactory: efficient, discreet, and modest (not overly friendly). The restaurant was elegant yet relaxed, delicious. We had a wonderful stay!"

"We were extremely pleased with our accommodations at the hotel. The rooms were large, well appointed and clean. We enjoyed the patio sitting areas near our room as well as the gardens.

"Hola! He estudiado el espaniol por 5 1/2 anios.Nos encanto a Hostal del Cardenal. Nuestros cuartos eran fantasticos, mas buenos de lo que podriamos haber imaginado. "La Vista de Toledo" que tuvimos del balcon del cuarto de mis padres era muy buena, y sacamos MUCHAS fotos de los techos espanioles y de los jardines. Tambien, la comida fue especial. Tuvimos un desayuno buffet, y encontramos muchas comidas de diferentes sabores, porque solo era el tercer dia que estuvimos en Espania, como la fruta que se llama melon. Que rica! Mis dos comidas favoritas de Espana son el melon y el jamon
Los empleados eran amables y simpaticos. Diez minutos antes de que salieramos, una camarera que estuvo limpiando nuestro cuarto encontro uno de mis pendientes, y ella se lo entrego a mi familia.
De todas las ciudades que visitamos, Toledo fue mi favorita!".

"We enjoyed this Hostal immensely. We especially enjoyed sangria and gazpacho at the adjoining restaurant. The staff was most helpful, and our room was very nice for the price. I would definitely stay there again."

"Our October visit to the Hostel del Cardenal in Toledo was wonderful. We had visited that hotel 17 years earlier and had wonderful memories and it didn't let us down. The front desk staff was exceptionally helpful when we had a car problem, our dinners in the restaurant were very good and we loved our accommodations. We also stayed at your property in Zafra, Spain and felt that it was one of the highlights of our trip."

"This is to let you know that we enjoyed our stay in the Hostel del Cardenal in Toledo. We have stayed in the Hostel del Cardenal many times and would again consider staying there. The hotel is in a beautiful building in a lovely location. The rooms are comfortable and very clean. The staff was helpful, in particular in dealing with our luggage up and down the stairs. The Hostal del Cardenal and the Parador of Toledo are our favorite hotels in Toledo, the Hostal having the advantage of being located in the old city."
