I will just say the Parador grounds will, without doubt, soon need serious reconstruction. The sea will destroy much of it within a short time. As a volcanic geomorphologist, I unfortunately know this well.

Hotel's Favourite
A charming, old-fashioned hotel in an isolated, spectacular location. Food in restaurant is authentic and excellent, even if the service is a bit slow. I stayed in 6 places in El Hierro, and no question this one is the top as regards international service standards. I had a room with a balcony and it was lovely, with the only annoyance for me being that all rooms seem to offer 2 twins beds and none with one double bed, which is pretty common among old-style Spanish hotels.

We stayed there for one night on a 2-day trip to El Hierro and were amazed by the surroundings and the location right in front of the sea in a lovely bay, where we could see the sun rise. The staff is very nice and the food/drink offer great value. The Parador dates from the 70s and could use a bit of refurbishing but on the whole it's well worth a visit.

This hotel has a lovely location overlooking the sea with the mountains behind. The service here was very good and our meal was the best meal we had had on El Hierro. The pool area was closed for repairs as it looked like it had been hit by a boulder.. We only stayed one night having hiked here from another location. If you stay here ideally you would need a car as there is no a lot to do apart from enjoy the views. We had room 210 which was at the end of the corridor with a sea view. The room was well equipped with a safe, tea & coffee, fridge and a balcony. The decor is a bit tired in places but this seems to add to the charm.

It is the N-time we have been there. It is the acme of the relax, of contact with nature. Quiet, isolated, only the sea makes a slight noise that relaxes our overwrought nerves. Ideal. Food is superb and all the staff are extremely helpful. Of course it depends upon you that you feel isolated or feel that 'this is exactly what I was looking for'

We stayed for a week and what a find. El Hierro was fabulous as was the hotel. We have been to La Gomera on numerous occasions but never to El Hierro. It was a challenge to get here involving two flights, a taxi transfer between airports and a hire car to the hotel. We arrived very tired but were welcomed in by Joanna, who was excellent throughout our week's stay. She was always willing to chat and always welcomed us back each day and asked us where we had been. The hotel location was excellent, we fell asleep each night to the sound of crashing waves. The bathroom could do with some updating and parts of the hotel could do with some tlc. The food was very good although the menu never changed throughout the week we were there. Overall everything was great and we had a wonderful holiday😃😃😃

Facilities and site are excellent, but could use an update. Very quiet and relaxing environment. Breakfast good but dinners were poor in quality and choice. Note that the hotel is on a dead end road and one must drive 20-25 minutes up to Valverde to get to any other parts of the island.

Dear Mr/s.: We thank you so much for your review. We don't know whether to be happy or sad, as according to your opinion in general your stay was pleasant but our gastronomic offer was not up to the level you expected, being one of the best rated aspects of the Parador. In any case, we hope you had a pleasant memory and we will continue to strive to improve day by day thanks to you. Greetings and Merry Christmas.

The outstanding disadvantage of the Hierro Parador is its location. There is no sun in the late afternoon and early evening, so sitting on the balcony is less enjoyable. The second drawback is the location on the island. It means a 30 minute drive to Valverde every day wherever you go from there. And the same back. Although we had communicated our preferences well in time, we did not get the room we had asked for right away and had to pack up and move on day two. And when we got home from a long walk at 3 in the afternoon on day three, our room had not been serviced yet. Used to Austrian meal times, we had to do without an evening meal at the Parador, as 8pm was too late for us to start dinner. The room itself was fine with morning sun and a nice bathroom, too. Breakfast was excellent, and we enjoyed having it outside on the terrace. The service was very friendly and efficient. Nevertheless, on the whole our stay was a positive experience.

We are very thankful for your comment, and on the same time, we are frustated to know that our efforts could´nt have been quite enough to offer you the best of ours, due to some points. By the other way, we are in general happy, because as you wrote, your stay, despite those little things that we have noted to be improved, was enjoyable. Kindly regards,

i went for a drink in 2019 and customer service has improved since 2009 when i did stayed and the receptionist who may not still working there now would do bulling to customers like us with not suitcases but backback and we felt discriminated. we travel with rucksacks as were were doing a lot of trekking. we were told we may be allowed even to use the swimming pool a service open to all guests and even allowed to have breakfast for free which was included in the price anyway. during the check in he told us we did not book durectly but "with one of those doggy webs booking.com with an air of disgust " we felt treated like second class citizens or even less

A sea view is essential and the views from the balconies are stunning. Be aware that the waves can be very large and very noisy if you are a light sleeper! The bathroom did need updating and some of the room fittings do need replacing as they look very tired. Upper floor rooms are best but there is no lift. The staff were very friendly and helpful but sometimes they were scarce and we had to wait some time for bar service with the poor reception fellow having to man the bar as well at times. The food was very good although the menu did not change during the 3 nights that we were there. Breakfast was buffet style and excellent.There are a couple of large lounges for reading or playing cards and an excellent activity room where we played table tennis several times. The hotel is very remote and at the end of a long road from the airport and port. There are no other restaurants or shops nearby at all although a local bus does stop at the hotel. Reception have a list of suggested taxi tours and we found these very good and reasonably priced.
