Possibly the worst hotel we have ever stayed at. There is no Guest Parking whatsoever. We were directed to park outside the Hidstoric Centre's walls in a totally unsecure carpark. Wi-fi, though promised, never worked in the room. We were given one of the rooms in the "modern wing". Paper thin walls, we could hear our fellow guests breathing. At... more

We were staying in one of the premium rooms in the main castle and it was truly a delightful room, full of the atmosphere you might expect in a castle. The bathroom showed some signs of wear and may be due a refit soon. We missed the wine festival by one day, but the town was still busy. Evening meal... more

Perhaps it is when were there, July 15 and 16, 2009 but the town of Olite was dead, hardly anyone walking around, felt very non-Spanish. Went to Estella, about 45 kilometers away and it was a different story. A busy, vibrant town, should have stayed there instead of Olite. Not much to see/do in Olite. The parador is OK but... more

We stayed at the Parador de Olite for two nights during our honeymoon. The staff were very friendly, our room was lovely, with a fabulous view. However, the walls were a bit thin, and we expected a little bit more luxury for the price, and being in a castle. The food at the restaurant was amazing, one of the best... more

On arrival the Parador looked so promising. A warm, sunny afternoon lit up the square - the narrow streets were swarming with happy-looking, tanned people. The castle itself looked amazing. It all came to halt when we went in the front door. Staff performed their jobs in an unwilling, dutiful manner. They were not remotely welcoming. After waiting in a... more

We stayed at the Parador Olite for 1 night in October 2007. The work on the square in front of the building has finished (the trees have been replaced) but you still cannot park there. We were allowed to unload in front of the hotel but were redirected to the public car park for the longer term. It was very... more

If you want to visit a small town in Spain, this is a perfect one (such a different expereince than just hitting the big cities like Barcelona and Madrid) and staying at a true 15th century castle was the perfect way to soak it all in. We stayed in the main portion of the castle and it exceeded our expectations.... more

We really enjoyed our stay at this Parador. However there seemed to be roadworks around the town and half of the signs to the Parador were apparently covered up... would have been nice to know this before trying to get there. We drove around in circles for about 20 minutes we finally asked for directions. We had to ask twice... more

Olite is undoubtedly one of the most attractive Paradores in Spain, set next to the fairy-tale castle of the Kings of Navarra, and with a decor inside worthy of the setting. Right now, the problem is that the town has dug up the square in front of the parador, making access very difficult (it is said that all this will... more
