Parador de Cardona delivers a memorable stay in a dramatic hilltop castle with sweeping views and historic charm, widely praised staff, and well-regarded dining, though access and parking can be tricky and some guests find beds firm or rooms basic.

Great to stay in this historic structure. Out of Barcelona is a plus. If you’re looking for something else other than peace and tranquility this is a good option. We ate in the bar area. Food was mediocre and staff somewhat “ black and white” in affect. Montserrat is a good day trip from here. Room was comfortable.

This was the first time that we have stayed in a parador. To be able to stay in surroundings so beautiful and full of history is a real privilege. The views from the castle were simply amazing. The staff were all pleasant and professional. We took the additional tour of the castle (at extra cost) which was in spanish which was too difficult for us, maybe either a leaflet explaining the tour or an audio/visual aid would improve the tour for non native speakers. Overall thoroughly recommended.

Room and hotel are nice, food is exelant. Only minus is you hear everything in your room like water draining etc. So it's hard to get to sleep until everyone else does.

Great, large room, beautiful location, nice service overall, although sometimes we needed to ask a few times for things or got mixed answers. Great food. Lacked some amenities that were advertised. Not suitable for people with low mobility, due to the hardship getting there, but it is still relatively possible. Would definitely recommend, however.

Our room was not ready when we arrived well after check in time and front desk stored our bags and got us free drinks at the bar for the inconvenience. Very well managed.
