San Ramón del Somontano

The San Ramon hotel is as well placed as you can find within 1-5 minutes walk of most things you want in a rural Aragon town -- open air bars for people watching, good to very good restaurants and fast food outlets, shops of all kinds, a cathedral, ice cream parlours, and lots of alley ways and traditional architecture. GPS is rather essential for driving the maze of narrow roads but underground hotel parking for €10 a night means you abandon the car anyway except for out-of-town excursions. Rooms are very clean and well-fitted throughout although shift up a grade if you like plenty of space. Breakfast hours were limited to 08:00 to 09:30 during our stay but there was a good selection of hot and cold choices and helpful staff. Unfortunately, the main restaurant and highly-rated café were closed for our two-night stay but the café was clearly pulling local customers in as we checked out. With superb reception staff with command of several languages, the Hotel San Ramon del Somontano is well worth a stopover.

Very clean hotel with new and chic decor. Friendly and welcoming staff with authentic cafe in lobby. Cafe offers outdoor seating for leisurely almuerzos and cenas. Also offers excellent to go lattes and local tapas if in a rush. Convenient location if touring the Barbastro wineries like Sommos, Bodegas Lalanne and Vina del Vero.

We stayed 2 nights on bed and breakfast. We paid the regular price directly to the hotel. We chose it as it had a lovely looking restaurant, with an additional terrace and bar.. The good - well appointed shower room, very clean, very good breakfast, position, has underground car park ( 10€ /day) The not so good - the room we had was tiny. Beware as our ‘ comfort double’ was so small you can hardly walk around the bed. This certainly was not ‘comfort’. The hotel offered to move us to a larger, higher category room but we had to pay over 50€ extra, we declined. The 180cm bed was much too large for the room. Our friends had a bigger ‘ comfort’ room, still not very generous, but with a large 200cm bed. Our other main complaint was the bar, terrace and restaurant were all closed during our stay, only reopening the day we left. The hotel had written to us to advise of the exceptional restaurant closure but the same email assured us the the terrace ( for food and drinks) and bar would be open. Had we known everything was closed we would not have stayed here, or we would have chosen alternative dates as being with friends public areas were important to us especially as the rooms were too small to meet in. I would not recommend staying in a ‘comfort’ / standard double rooms as some are too small.
