History of the Hotel Ciria

Discover the story of Hotel Ciria, an establishment with more than three decades of history that combines the tradition of the Benasque Valley with the close and authentic hospitality of the Pyrenees.

From its beginnings to becoming a benchmark in the area, this mountain hotel reflects dedication, effort and a deep respect for the culture of Alto Aragón.

Here begins the story...

The origins: the Barrabés Inn and the beginning of our story

Long before building the hotel, the family ran a small inn, the "Fonda Barrabés", a modest but essential space in its time, which offered shelter to mountaineers and travelers when Benasque had not yet experienced its tourist expansion.

That place marked the beginning of a way of understanding hospitality that, over time, would give way to a more ambitious project.

The architecture that defines Hotel Ciria

The story of Hotel Ciria began over 30 years ago, with the desire to create accommodation that preserved the essence of the Aragonese Pyrenees. From the outset, the project was conceived respecting the valley's traditions, its architecture, and its authentic character.

The building was constructed using fine materials such as stone, wood, and granite, reflecting the identity of the area.

El Fogaril: the soul of the hotel and its gastronomy

Among its most emblematic spaces is the hearth, a magnificent granite dome with a central fireplace and wooden seating area. Inspired by traditional Pyrenean houses, this corner has become the heart of the hotel.

In addition, “El Fogaril” gives its name to the hotel's restaurant, a gastronomic space where game dishes and traditional stews stand out, along with special recipes such as roe deer loin with morels, one of the most recognized and appreciated proposals of the house.

A team that keeps the essence of the valley alive

Thanks to their deep knowledge of the area and their daily involvement, Dioni, José María, and Estrella are the pillars that keep the hotel's spirit alive. Their warm hospitality and passion for Benasque make every stay a personalized experience.

In addition, they offer tailor-made excursions and unique advice for discovering the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park, the Cerler ski resort and all the corners that make this valley a special place.

Living tradition in the heart of Benasque

Located on the main street of Benasque, Hotel Ciria has established itself as an authentic establishment, true to its roots and committed to the quality and well-being of its guests.

More than 30 years of history dedicated to offering warmth, tradition and unforgettable experiences in the heart of the Aragonese Pyrenees.
