Hotel de Montaña El Mirador

This Hotel was great! Clean and well furnished. The reception was brilliant. - the fella (sadly I cannot remember his name) even offered me his own private car to go down to the village to find food - I did not take him up on his offer (insurance bla bla) and went down in the rain to get food - on my motorbike. This was the downside of the Hotel - It does not do food any longer and hasn't done food this season (chef issues - maybe- staff availability - I am not sure) But when it is advertised and the Restaurant sign still hangs boldly in front of the Hotel we were distressed to find no food at the Hotel. We were soaking wet, exhausted and tired but had to go back out on motorcycles to find food. A big disappointment. I have still marked it 5 because the Hotel and staff were good. Ordesa is the unsung hero and gem of the Pyrenees and Broto has everything going for it. If you know about the food you will make a plan and then it is worth staying at this hotel for a few days and using it as a hub to explore the area. We tried - they were full the next night.

Stayed here 3 nights and we could not have been happier...bright, clean room, great location, very friendly staff and outstanding food....what more could you want ? We had a room on first floor ( no elevator )...it was large with a comfortable double bed, safe, mini fridge, tv and a balcony with wonderful views. Walkin shower. Very very clean. Dead quiet... Food was outstanding...give the chef a raise. We ate dinner there for all 3 nights....a choice of 4 appetizers, and 4 mains, dessert, a glass of wine and bottled water for 21€ pp ! Menu changed daily ( also in English ) and varied...fish, veal, pork, cuttle fish, chicken...nice size portions and all excellently prepared. Breakfast was also excellent..scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages and usual cold cuts, fruit, bread...we ate very well here. Great views from dining room Location was prime...in rural setting about 15 minute walk from Broto. Only sounds were birds, crickets and cow bells. Lots of walks in area. 10 minute drive to Torla and 20 to the park. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Alvaro provided lots of info on things to do and was very helpful with my computer woes. There was a waiter whose name we didnot get who provided wonderful service at dinner for two nights. There is bar with seating at rear of hotel overlooking Broto valley and a few chairs at front of the hotel. We liked sitting there watching the walkers and the cows with their calves across the road. A great stay...hightly recommended for a stay in Broto
