Hotel La Fábrica de Solfa

Beceite, on the bank and at the foot of the Ports

La Fábrica de Solfa is a family hotel of eight rooms in the Arrabal del Puente of Beceite, in the building of an old paper mill on the banks of the Matarraña. Beceite is at the foot of the Ports, the range from which the river descends, and that shapes the stay: you are 5 km from the car park for the Parrizal boardwalks, and about ten minutes by car from Valderrobres and its castle.

The renovation left the building clean and contemporary, with exposed stone walls. The house subscribes to the idea of travelling without hurry, and no room has a television.

Eight rooms named after paper mills

Each room is named after one of the paper mills that worked beside the river. The website does not publish sizes or views for each room, so if you want one facing the water, ask when you book. An extra bed can be added for a supplement, which makes it possible to travel with one child. The hotel has a lift and is adapted for people with reduced mobility, and there is wifi throughout the building.

The common areas include a lounge with a fireplace and a bar with a garden terrace beside the river.

Price, breakfast and minimum stay

A double costs from €125 a night and single use from €95, always with breakfast and 10% VAT included. Breakfast is served from 9:00 to 11:00, late for anyone going to the first Parrizal session, which starts at 9:00. At weekends they ask for a minimum of two nights, and for stays of more than three nights they give a 5% discount. Reception is staffed until 21:00: if you arrive later, let them know. The hotel closes for Christmas from 21 to 26 December.

Booking is on its website, with its own engine, or on 978 850 756 and at [email protected]. Animals are not allowed.

Dinner without taking the car

The house restaurant, with the Repsol Guide Sol from 2023 to 2026, serves lunches and dinners, so the evening is sorted without moving. It has menus at €42 and €60 and a seasonal à la carte menu; dinner is served from 20:30 to 21:30, and it is best booked when you book the room.

For the next day, besides the Parrizal, you have the 4x4 route through the Ports to the Tossal del Rei and, in summer, kayaking on Pena reservoir.
