Hotel & Spa Convento San Francisco

By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.

Yes, it is worth booking if you want the best-rated hotel in Soria with a spa and gym, at a price close to the city median. Drivers should check parking first, because guests say the garage is tight.

Who it suits and who should skip it

This is our Luxury pick in Soria, but do not expect a five-star palace. It is a four-star hotel that scored 9.2 out of 10 across 1,602 guest reviews, the joint top score among the 6 properties we compared.

It suits couples and short-break travellers who want a spa and a fitness center on site, and who like a quiet street within walking distance of the old town. Families can look at it too, since the property lists family rooms.

Skip it if you are driving a large car and hate tight parking. Guests mention that the underground garage is secure but that spaces are narrow and getting in takes some maneuvering. If breakfast included in the rate is a must, check that too, because breakfast terms are not confirmed in our data.

Location and getting around

The address is 19B Calle Nicolás Rabal. Guests describe it as central and quiet, opposite a large park and close to the old town. The location sub-score is 9.8 out of 10, which is high even for a small city.

Straight-line walking estimates to the main sights are short. The Church of Saint Dominic is about 0.6 km away, roughly 8 minutes on foot. The Co-Cathedral of San Pedro is about 1.1 km, around 14 minutes. The Monastery of San Juan de Duero is about 1.6 km, around 20 minutes.

These are estimates, not measured routes, so real walks may take a little longer.

What guests say

Two themes come up again and again. The first is location: guests like the central but calm setting next to the park. The second is the staff, described as friendly, professional, helpful and attentive.

The main complaint is parking. The garage is underground and secure, yet the spaces are tight and access needs care. Room size and noise have not been assessed, so read recent reviews on those.

Price and what you get compared with our other Soria picks

In our reference search for 10 to 12 November 2026, for 2 adults in one room, the price was about €90 per night, so roughly €180 for the two nights. The sample median was €80.95 per night. These are reference prices seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026, not live quotes, so check today's price for your dates.

Here is the odd thing about Soria. Our Luxury pick is not the most expensive of the three. Hotel Alfonso VIII, our Best Value pick, came in at about €100 per night with a score of 8.9. Alameda Centro, our Budget pick, was about €77 per night with a score of 8.2. All three are four-star hotels.

So for around €13 a night more than the Budget pick, you get a full point higher in guest score plus a spa and gym listed by the property.

Why it made our top 3

We compared 6 eligible properties in Soria. Our Luxury slot goes to five-star hotels first, and a four-star hotel can only take it if it scores at least 8.5. Convento San Francisco cleared that bar easily with 9.2 from a solid base of 1,602 reviews.

Listed facilities include a gym, spa and wellness center, family rooms, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning and a terrace.

Before you book

Check whether breakfast is included in your rate, since this is not confirmed. Ask about spa opening hours and whether there is an extra charge. If you are driving, confirm parking availability and the cost, and think about your car size.
