Montelirio

Montelirio Review

The 18th-century mansion of the Count of Montelirio, perched over the deep plunge to the Tajo, has been carefully refurbished, maintaining some original features like the empire staircase, a precious stained-glass window, and the handcrafted wood ceiling in the common room; guest rooms are individually decorated and have dark wooden furniture and heavy fabrics, but the highlight of this hotel is the breathtaking view over the valley, and it's well worth paying the extra €40 for a balcony room. The terrace, which looks out over the bridge and ravine, provides the perfect setting for watching the sunset, and the Turkish bath and open fireplace make this an attractive choice for the colder months. The restaurant ($$$) serves Mediterranean cuisine. If you need a parking space, reserve one when you reserve your room.
