Travelling to Spain for a room?
Booking confirmations, the walk from the station and the game master's messages all need data. The Spain eSIM installs before you fly, so you land already connected.

Don Escape lists English sessions only on the days and times shown in its English calendar, and The X-Door's English room page carries its own booking calendar, per their sites. Don Escape is next to the Mestalla, so allow extra time on match days.
Our take: the two city rooms fit one day; keep Paranoia for a separate evening if your group wants a scare.
How the ranking works
TERPECA asks experienced players, not owners or critics, to rank the rooms they have played. Nominators have played at least 200 rooms and voters at least 100, and nobody may vote for a room they are connected to. Every eligible room has to be bookable in English, which is why the list is useful to travellers: a room on it can be played without speaking the local language. The full method, and TERPECA's own caveat that regions with fewer enthusiast visitors are under-represented, is on its methodology page.

Methodology
How we did this comparison
Ranks and horror ratings are TERPECA's 2025 Top Room results. TERPECA (Top Escape Rooms Project Enthusiasts' Choice Award) is run by enthusiasts: in October, nominators who have played at least 200 rooms each put forward up to 10 rooms, and in November voters who have played at least 100 rank every finalist they have played, with owners and staff barred from voting for their own rooms. Only rooms playable in English are eligible. For 2025, 734 nominators made 6,630 nominations and TERPECA named 100 Top Rooms; a few more appear as Top Rooms without a rank of their own, usually an alternate version or one part of a combined game. TERPECA's horror levels run from no horror, through spooky (horror theming without scares) and passively scary (darkness or tension without many startles), to actively scary (jump scares or simulated attacks).
Players, game length, languages, addresses and booking links come from each room's own website, read on 30 October 2026, and every figure links to the page it came from. We do not rank rooms ourselves and nothing here is paid for. Planning notes marked "Our take" are ours. Map positions are geocoded from each room's published address. Rooms whose own website was offline or could not be checked are not listed. Rooms close and change format, so check the room's own site before you travel.
