Casi nada
On entering the corridors the walls were dark; in the rooms the walls were painted a dark colour, which was frightening, with little light. In each room there was an unnecessary decorative plant in a huge pot with dead equipment in it — I was sure some kind of insect would come out of it. In the fridge there was complimentary water, but one of the bottles was open from the previous stay, which shows the cleaning staff do not check properly.
Some Indian guests arrived and, my goodness, the racket they made at night.
In one word: I do not recommend this and I will never stay again.
The only good rating would be for the staff.
Al entrar en los pasillos paredes oscuras, en las habitaciones paredes pintados color oscuro, bada miedo, poca luz, en cada habitación habia una planta de decoración que sobraba, en una maceta gigante con cosas secas, segueo de alli saldrá algun bicho, en la nevera habia agua de cortesía, una de las botellas estaba abierta de la estancia anterior, que quiere decir que no revisan el personal de la limpieza
Vinieron unos indios que madre mia la guerra que daban por la noche
Con una palabra No aconsejo y no repetiré nunca
La unica buena puntuación seria para el personal

Es un hotel que está en medio del campo y su ubicación es fantástica. Pero creo que es un hotel que para 4 estrellas no tiene buen servicio: el café en el desayuno es malísimo y el zumo no es natural. Además la comida caliente está recalentado.
And the worst thing is that on the only night we stayed there was a bachata night. First there was an Andalusian fair from about eight, and the bachata went on until one in the morning. They hold it in rooms that are clearly not soundproofed and at full volume. It is outrageous that you cannot rest in a hotel in the middle of the countryside. At the very least they could have warned us so you could change the dates.
Y lo peor de todo es que la única noche que nos hemos quedado, ha habido noche de bachata. Comenzó primero la feria de abril sobre las ocho y la bachata hasta la una de la mañana. Lo hacen en los salones que no deben estar aislados y a todo volumen. Es indignante que no se pueda descansar en un hotel en medio del campo. Por lo menos podían avisar y si tu quieres cambiar las fechas.

Todo genial, personal súper amables y además cuando llegamos nos habían hecho un up grade, y nos dieron una habitación mejor que la correspondía por nuestra reserva. Nos dieron una suite. Es la segunda vez que vamos y no será la última, repetiremos más veces.

El hotel se encuentra en las afueras de Ávila en un lugar muy tranquilo.
Habitación grande y espacios comunes amplios.
Entorno natural, vecino de un campo de golf y un campo de tiro (no molesto).

Sobre todo de la tranquilidad y el poco ruido de las habitaciones
The furniture is very old and quite worn, and the location on Google is difficult to find.

Todo genial!!
If I have to say something in return… it would be the location, perhaps, since there is nothing around it, but that also gives a sense of tranquility to the surroundings.
Si he de decir algo en contrapartida.. es quizá la ubicación ya que que a su alrededor no hay nada, pero eso tambien le da la tranquilidad al ambiente

Pues el hotel no está mal,bien ubicado y Ávila nos encanto
But the lunchtime service seems insufficient to me: only two people serving in the dining room since there is no buffet, so having to call them several times to be served seems inadequate. There is also a limited variety at breakfast. The dinners on both nights were the same dishes to choose from, which seems very poor for a four-star hotel. Also, the bar area has nothing to do to pass the time. Very limited.
Pero el servicio en las horas de comida me parece que dos personas sirviendo en el comedor ya que no tiene bufet,para servirte tú,me parecen escasas,teniendo que llamarles varias veces para que te sirvieran cosas,y escasezde variedad en desayuno.las cenas los dos días los mismos platos los cuales elegir para ser un hotel de 4 estrellas .me parece muy escaso.luego en el área de bar no tiene nada para pasar el rato .Muy escaso .

El silencio para descansar, el entorno, personal agradable, camas cómodas, habitaciones grandes,
To mention a drawback, for breakfast we miss plant-based drinks such as soy, oat, etc.
Por poner un pero, en el desayuno echamos en falta bebidas Vegetales, soja, avena...

Ha estado muy bien la verdad hemos estado varios días hacía mucho frío pero el hotel y el viaje muy bonito
The only thing that could be improved is the half-board menu, but the breakfast was very good.
Lo único que se puede mejorar es el menú de la media pensión pero el desayuno muy bien
