debra.partnerOct 09, 2024 A lovely boutique type hotel with great friendly staff.
The hotel is clean and quiet, and staff is friendly. My only complaint is that due to narrow streets the bus cannot go into own and it is quite a distance from the bus station, particularly with luggage. The town itself is very quaint and people are super friendly.
Super hotel, but check parking and restsurant.
Our room in this hotel was excellent : comfortable bed, clean bathroom, sufficient plugs. We had an excellent night, but be warned - establishments serving evening meals are rare. It may be the season, but this hotel did not serve after 6pm, nor did other hotels close by.
Parking is offered at a hotel, which is quite a walk away, and the road is narrow. Outside parking, if you can get it, is to be paid for from 8.00 a.m.
The reception staff were so friendly and helpful.
Great little hotel with modern amenities across the steet from a historic monatery providng a front row photo op from the quaint balcony :-) Plus a freash breakfast and very reasonable menu pricing.
Older style hotel just minutes from square
Short one night trip to visit daughter at school. Hotel is older style but adequate and close for what we needed. It was cold the night we arrived so needed to put heating on in room but no problem to do this. We had stayed here before so knew what we were getting. We didn’t use restaurant so can’t comment on any meals. Pleasant receptionist staff
The air-conditioning didn't work well and the room was warm when I entered. But the staff were very helpful.
The hospitality was overwhelming.
A nice, well-located, and welcome place to stay.
The hotel was very well located, very close to El Escorial and a number of eating establishments. The service staff was friendly and efficient. The only thing that bothered me was the parking which was off-site and cost us $30 per day.
Great location. AMAZING View. The staff went far and beyond. She drew me a map and a great route.
verified t.partnerMar 05, 2020 Old property with charm but needed updating. Breakfast wasn’t very interesting or varied.
rooms and hotel very dated
walls very thin
Wonderful helpful staff, suggested best restaurant down the street Kul4!
Clean, easy taxi ride from train station.
Beautiful surroundings walk to shops, hike up in mountains, cool fresh clean air.
Very good stay and conveniently located.
Good or mediocre hotel: depends on the room
Last fall my wife and I stayed in a spacious room with a large bathroom with a large window. The four door-windows looked out on the stunning El Escorial monastery. One of our most beautiful hotel rooms ever.
Two weeks ago I returned and got a small room with no view and a small, somewhat worn bathroom. It was January, rather cold, which I don’t mind, but the room was barely heated. Had to double up on blankets, which I never do. Also the walls between the rooms were thin, letting through all kinds of sounds. The closet had only four hangers and the door key lock constantly malfunctioned. The staff, if not particularly welcoming, was acceptably helpful.
San Lorenzo is a lovely town, but people come for the El Escorial, and for this, the 'Florida' is perfect. It is right over the road and we had a view of it from our window (Room 19). From the moment Jose-Luis greeted us and arranged for us tp park right across the street for 2 days, we know we had chosen 'wisely'. The hotel is tired, but not in a way that effects a stay. Our room was great and even had a Jacussi bath, a view across the park to El Escorial and a comfortable bed. There are dozens of restaurants and bars nearby and I would highly recommend the 'Asedor el Rey', right next door. The 'Escoral' is fabulous too!
The Best at San Lorenzo de El Escorial
Couldn't be better. I was visiting family and had a family emergency that forced me to extend my stay and they couldn't be more accommodating, it being high season and all. They even upgraded my room so I would be more comfortable on my longer than planned stay. Rooms very clean and roomy bathrooms for European standards. Balcony faced the Monastery so I couldn't be more pleased. Nice breakfast. Beatriz at front desk made me feel at home, helping beyond her duties. Since I have to go back every couple of months now because of this family health problem I will definitely stay there.
Air condition is not working. Shower failed to work. Hairs from previous customer in the shower, Trash cans only partially cleaned.
Hotel did not comply with offer
internet quality bad
breakfast buffet unavailable
breakfast room cold
associated restaurant with very bad quality food
hotel owner stating that frozen pasta quality is fold of supplier not of his kitchen
owner stating that he do not care of any comment from the beat western organization
Hotel is not up to the standards of comparable hotels and the worst that we stayed in of the 8 used on this trip. The person who checked us in had marginal command of English and the others at the desk varied between ok and none. It is the only front desk where some of the staff did not even acknowledge us. The associated restaurant staff spoke no English. The rooms run between minuscule, barely accessible to somewhat better, but the beds were terrible and not acceptable; they sagged in the middle.
gerardo.familyNov 19, 2024 The location is really good, and the people is simply great.
