We had a nice stay at Castillo de Santa Cecilia, the place views are nice, our room was comfortable, don’t expect luxury it’s an old building, but good to get some rest! The halls needed attention for the cleaning aspect. We enjoyed our stay!

Great, simple place to stay. Just be mindful that it's an old castle, so the amenities are older as well. Overall, it was a great and unique experience and I really enjoyed my stay.

2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This place is badly in need of repairs. Our room walls were peeling paint and it reeked of dampness. The bed, bedding, and all furniture was super old including the box TV (90s?).The humidity smell was bad and our room had no window to open. Bathroom entirely was in bad shape and barely had water come out of shower along with counter with sink was broken and dirty. The room we got should have never been rented out. Also the place is haunted. Had a horrible night. Got there late and stayed a few hours only but almost left 10 min in. Decided to stay only because of how late it was. They should just turn it into a museum. Place looks magical from the outside don’t fall for it. Just visit during the day.

El castillo y su concepto están excelentes, muebles viejos y áreas con muy buen espacio excelentes, falta limpieza en general, la atención en recepción de manera personal y telefónica es un área para mejorar. Tiene mucho potencial este tipo de Hotel. Si volvería a tomarlo en cuenta, gracias.

El lugar es hermoso pero hace falta un poco mas de atención y limpieza en los muebles y en lo personal limpiaban mi habitación pero en el lavabo desde el primer día encontré un pequeño vidrio el cual nunca retiraron a pesar de que la habitación la limpiaban todos los días solo agregaría que la alberca fuera climatizada por que el agua esta helada pero sin duda volvería a hospedarme ahi 😊

Es un hospedaje comportando diferente, es muy bonito y de verdad te traslada a la época. Cero fantasmas no se crean nada de las redes. Esta muy limpio, lo único es que si le falta mantenimiento, pero nada que afecte la estadía, digamos que eso también forma parte de su encanto. Lo que si es que no hagan planes de nadar, el agua está helada! Quisimos desayunar en el restaurante y comer pero nos negaron el servicio. Que según estaban muy ocupados pero cerca esta un restaurante Hacienda San Matias., muy recomendable., por si les paga lo mismo. Fuera de eso, todo estuvo muy bien

El hotel llama mucho la atención por su forma de castillo. Sí es bonita la experiencia de sentirse en un castillo. La habitación estaba limpia cosa que se agradece. Las instalaciones son muy viejas, les falta mucho mantenimiento. La cama muy vieja que hasta se sienten los resortes. Como experiencia de una noche estuvo bien.
