Arrived 2am and to my surprise everything was locked up however after calling a very nice patient and courteous gentleman immediately opened the door and attended to us. Breakfast could be made somewhat more exciting...

A unique and cozy castle experience
It was a unique experience staying in a refurbished castle. Being that it was chilly outside, it was nice to have a nice cozy room to in which to relax. We were a little disappointed that the main dining room was closed due to heating issues, but we enjoyed a tasty meal if Spanish specialties in the bar area.

Nicer place but not soundproof
The place it's really nice and the rooms as well, nicely equipped and big. The only negative issue was that you could hear absolutely everything from the nearby room. Breakfast was a bit meager (one slice of bread with ham and tomatoes or with butter and marmalade), a small glass of orange juice, and one coffee.

Great renovated castle with great restaurant
A perfect place in this quit little town, the owner spent a lot of money renovating this old castle and it shows. The staff was very helpful and friendly.

Getting in!
I would think in the summer months parking might not be as easy. It wasn't obvious how to get into the Hotel I would think it more obvious in summer months as doors would be open?

very reasonably priced and extremely spacious room with sitting room. Nice and quiet so got a good nights sleep. Manzanares is an attractive village for an evening stroll and a good stop off if driving across Spain as only five minutes south of the main motorway less hassle than driving into Ciudad Real

Take earplugs
Great place.Major problem for us was the separate bathroom down very noisy stairs.Also you can hear your neighbors walking around,talking and tv.We were also next to the lift so again aware of every time it was used.Food and drinks were good but expensive.

Very nice small castle. Great local food. Great prices too. I would totally recommend it. You can visit the manchego cheese museum only 5 blocks from there.

Amazing 13th century castle.
Amazing 13th century castle near the centre of the city. Bit difficult to find the main door but, once in, authentic furniture and good reception. Tapas bar and full restaurant by the main reception. They only have a few rooms. Ours was double level with the bedroom upstairs and sitting room and bathroom at entry level. Easy walk to main square and we found good free car park nearby. Breakfast was good.

Muy bonito pero no cumple con lo que indica
El castillo es bonito y es un espacio singular pero tuvimos un problema que puede parecer pequeño pero que para nosotros fue muy importante: veníamos después de muchas horas en coche en plena ola de calor con niños pequeños y aunque el check-in es a las 12h nuestra habitación no estuvo lista hasta después de las 13.30h. Lo único que nos dijeron fue que unos clientes salieron tarde y que podíamos dejar las maletas allí mientras tanto. Entiendo que de la misma manera que yo como cliente no puedo estar después del horario del check-out, el hotel (aun más uno como este) tiene la obligación de tenerlo preparado a la hora acordada. O algún tipo de compensación, pero no nos han ofrecido ni agua (teniendo ellos bar y restaurante). Decepcionante. Aparte de esto comentar también que la ducha no es cómoda, no puedes estar con las dos manos libres mientras la usas y además como no tiene puerta se moja parte del baño.

Hubo un fallo de apreciación, pues aunque mi esposa iba cojeando, nos dieron una habitación con dos plantas teniendo que subir y bajar escaleras y desconocía que había habitaciones de solo una planta, pero lo supimos cuando nos íbamos.
