Hotels with Parking in Ponferrada

I wanted to rest a little while walking on the pilgrimage, and I had work to handle, so I booked a room with a double bed. I checked in at 3 o'clock, but I looked a little busy or there was a vacant room, and I was a little over 9 o'clock and I was allowed to check in without additional money (no Marriott tire) I went up to the room and upgraded to a junior suite with a terrace. I focused and finished my work and rested well There were not many reviews and Korean reviews were difficult to find, so I hesitated, but I think I made a good reservation! Breakfast was 14.3 euros, but I don't know if it's so good value for money, but I'm satisfied that I can solve it comfortably. I rest well!

Hemos ido un grupo ha alojarnos en ése hotel,(13/5 al 16/5)la ubicación buena, las habitaciones bien, las comidas normales, en el desayuno nos metían en una especie de bajo en el que no cabíamos (éramos un grupo) el atendimiento bien, pero...... de las cuatro noches que pasamos solo una de ellas nos despertaron, el resto se ”olvidaron” menos mal que nos despertamos a tiempo para no perder las excursiones, en cuanto al cuarto de baño ”la bañera” es peligrosa resbala y no tiene ningún asidero, te tienes que sujetar a la grifería, es un ”detalle” que deben de tener en cuenta con personas de ”ciertas edades”

Very nice hotel compared with by default I have just left . The Temple. Very well spoken staff. Quite unusual as I’ve never experienced a hotel without a bar ,although they had a Cafe/bar which was pleasing and simple and a buffet restaurant. Plus underground parking. Rooms very clean very bright. And….. a big and! Everything in the room worked instant hot water. Which I haven’t been used too in another hotel across the road. Food delicious well done for making me feel welcome in an adverse situation. At short notice too,having been stranded in Ponferrada for over a week trying unsuccessfully to repair my motorcycle. Just a point which came to my attention. Corridors very noisy at night. The floors are tiled and sound echoes, Perhaps if the hotel reads this , a one metre wide carpet straight down the middle. Would make a massive difference.

Los Templarios is just off the Camino down a side street in the old city of Ponferrada and would be easy to miss. On arrival the receptionist spoke good English and was very helpful. The hotel has a lift which is a welcome amenity after dragging a bag up stairs in many hotels along the Camino. Everything seemed very clean. It was pretty cool outside but the room heating was excellent - in fact almost too good in that it heated the room so quickly that I needed to open the window. The only window looked out on an air shaft and was frosted so that it let in very little light. I guess the frosting is because the windows opposite are fairly close but one could always shut the curtain when necessary and let in a bit more light when privacy is not needed. The room was very small with a big twin bed. It was so small that when I opened my suitcase on the floor the door could not be fully opened. The bathroom had a hand held shower over a half size bath with no shower curtain. A sure recipe for disaster and I had managed to soak most of the room by the time I finished showering. My other grumble concerns the keys and key card. There were 2 keys that were almost identical, one for the room and the other for the front door. There was also a sort of key card used to turn on the power that is attached on the same ring. The power turned off immediately that the key card was removed from the slot plunging the room into darkness and presenting a major challenge to get a key (the right key!) into the key hole to unlock the door. There must be a better option - perhaps separate key rings. There isn't much choice of accommodation in the Ponferrada old city so Los Templarios maybe as good as it gets and in the end it is clean with helpful staff so good enough for a night's stay.
