Hotel Jaime I Peñíscola is a hotel (3★) in Peñíscola, 805 m from the castle and 315 m from the water in a straight line, measured from its verified coordinates.
This page publishes only what can be sourced and dated: the score of every platform on its own scale, the board taken from the hotel’s own conditions, and what is not stated anywhere. The hotel’s editorial description is written in Spanish, hotel by hotel, and we do not machine-translate it — it is on the Spanish page, linked at the end. This site is published by the commercial side of a competing hotel, which is exactly why these figures go out whole.
Where it is, measured
Distances are straight-line from the verified coordinates, not walking routes.
| Data point | Value | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Address | Calle Pigmalión, 2, 12598 Peñíscola, Castellón | — |
| To the castle | 805 m | Measured on OpenStreetMap |
| To the water | 315 m | Measured on OpenStreetMap |
| Seafront | No | Google Maps |
The old town is a climb on cobbles, so we publish no estimated walking times.
What each platform scores it
Read the scale column before the score column. Booking and Buscounchollo run out of 10, Google and TripAdvisor out of 5, HolidayCheck out of 6 — and we publish no average across them, because mixing those scales would invent a number nobody measured.
| Platform | Score | Scale | Reviews | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Booking.com | 8.7 | out of 10 | 1,001 | 7 August 2026 |
| 4.5 | out of 5 | 659 | 4 August 2026 |
Each figure was read on the platform itself on the date shown. A platform missing from this table is one we have not measured for this hotel, which is not the same as a bad score.
The sub-scores the platforms break out
Each block keeps its own scale. They are the platform’s own breakdown: we neither recompute nor average them.
| Category | Score |
|---|---|
| Staff | 9.3 |
| Facilities and services | 8.5 |
| Cleanliness | 9.1 |
| Comfort | 8.9 |
| Value for money | 8.7 |
| Location | 9.2 |
| Wi-Fi | 8.2 |
Sub-scores are read with the overall score of the same platform, on the same date.
What is verified, with its source
Each row comes from a citable source with its consultation date, or it is not here.

| Board | Half board, Full board | 7 August 2026 |
| Starting rate | 58 € | — |
A starting rate is the cheapest room in the cheapest week the hotel sells, not a quote for your dates.
What is not stated
The section no comparison site publishes. These are the things we could not verify for this hotel in any citable source — not stated is not the same as does not have, and the way to settle it is to ask the hotel:
- TripAdvisor
- Destinia
- Central de Reservas
- Buscounchollo
- HolidayCheck
Where it sits among the 37 places we track
Its starting rate of 58 € is below the median of 77 € across the 24 properties that publish one, which run from 50 € to 120 €.
On Booking its 8.7/10 over 1,001 reviews puts it at number 17 of the 35 properties we have measured on that platform. Compare within a platform, never across platforms.
The hotel that publishes this site
Full disclosure, on every page that touches a competitor: this site is run by the commercial side of the Gran Hotel Peñíscola. That is why the figures above are published whole, with their dates and their weak points, and why this page carries no claim that Hotel Jaime I Peñíscola is worse than anything.
The honest case for our own hotel is not that it scores highest — it does not, and our best-rated page names who does. It is that it has by far the largest volume of reviews in town, 4,427 on Booking at 8.2/10 (7 August 2026), which makes its figures the hardest in Peñíscola to move with a handful of stays. It is a four-star on the Playa Norte seafront from 69 € a night, with a spa, and it closes for winter — last night of the season 7 November 2026, reopening 26 February 2027.
