What a jaw-dropping experience when first glimpsed! Beautiful! Elegant! Stylish! And upon entering the hotel, what a lovely reception from John, the American owner for 28 years. The few rooms are magnificent, if needing a little up-dating. Very high ceilings, balconies, antique furniture (perhaps not of the highest quality, but who cares), airy, and on a grand scale. A lovely... More

I was there in 2009 and it was fantastic, spotless, great food, great service so I returned just now, 10/11. I still had great service from the owner and a warm reception, but something dreadful happened to this place. I hope John, that you get it back on track and be proud of it again. Good luck and keep your... More

We had an enormous room, but the furniture was so dirty, you wouldn't lay your trousers on them, full with fungus and dirt. The furniture in the hall was so dirty you wouldn't dare to sit on it. Don't look in the kitchen please. We had dinner and breakfast and a foodpoisning. The swimming pool was with greenwater.

A castle built by an Italian immigrant turned by its current U.S. owner into a hotel. It's nice and quaint if a bit odd as one would expect from an eccentric original owner. Nice old-fashioned rooms with high ceilings. Can be a bit warm so ask for a fan. Full-length window doors open but no bug screens. On a dead... More

I visited Castillo San Lorenzo with mi wife. Our original plan was to stay there one week only. We felt so much at home that we changed our vacation plans on the spot and decided to stay 11 days instead. The rooms are huge (by outside US standards) clean and well mantained. Its location is very convenient as it is... More
