"Check-in took some time as there was an elderly couple in charge that seemed more interested in watching TV.
The rooms were OK and you could get a beer of coffee at the bar, but that was it. Restaurant not open for evening meal or breakfast. I think we were the only guests, so the place was very quiet.
Luckily the local town had many facilities that we used for eating & socialising.
Not the best stay of our trip, but good if you only require a room.
Looks as though this was once a busy, popular hotel that has lost its Mojo."

"Aside from the AC which was not great, everything about this parador was lovely. Dinner in restaurant was nice with staff superb and reception staff brilliant too. Parking, pool and walkable to nice little village."
A verified traveller from Great Rissington stayed at Parador Villafranca del Bierzo
"A slightly odd place. It’s not like a standard hotel. Each “room” consists of a garage with a typical hotel room above it, you drive round and into your private garage, close the electric door and go up a private stairs to a small landing outside your room, there is a door into the overall building but this is for staff only. Guests always come and go via their garage. The hotel doesn’t provide any food or drink options but within a few minutes walk is a 24/7 motorway service station with a very nice cafe servicing good quality and value food. There is also a small shop attached. It was a very convenient and secure parking for our motorbikes and overall a pleasant stopover. "
"Good value hotel for our overnight stay. Room was spacious, beds comfortable. Didn't have breakfast. Bedroom lacked a wastebin and hairdryer is a bit old school. Bag storage available, 20 minute walk to ghe station. McDonald's are across the road if you're desperate :)

A verified traveller stayed at Hotel Ponferrada Plaza
"Stayed here after coming off the Camino soaked to the bone.
It’s an interesting place where the owner/operator seems to have several smaller properties. When you ring the doorbell he comes to meet you from an adjacent property to check you in and give you your keys.
He and his wife also serve a great breakfast (additional charge) at a nearby property.
You get two physical keys, one for the front door and one for the room although there was another lock on the vestibule serving our room and an adjacent one. I mention this as those locks take some gettin used to which way to turn and how far.
All in all a great stay in a cute little town."
