Destination
Salamanca, in the Castile and León region of western Spain, is one of the country's most beautiful and historic cities. Known as the 'Golden City' for its sandstone architecture that glows in the sunlight, Salamanca is home to one of the oldest universities in Europe and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The city is a perfect blend of history, culture and vibrant student life.
Historical and Cultural Highlights:
- Plaza Mayor: Salamanca's stunning central square is often described as one of the most beautiful in Spain. This 18th-century baroque plaza is the heart of the city and the perfect place to enjoy a coffee and admire the surrounding architecture.
- University of Salamanca: Founded in 1218, it's one of the oldest universities in the world. Don't miss the intricately carved façade, where you can try to spot the famous frog, a symbol of good luck.
- Salamanca Cathedral: The city boasts two stunning cathedrals - the Old Cathedral (Catedral Vieja), with Romanesque frescoes and a beautiful altar, and the New Cathedral (Catedral Nueva), with its intricate Gothic and Baroque design. Climb the towers for panoramic views of the city.
- Casa de las Conchas: A 15th century building decorated with over 300 shell motifs, symbolising the Camino de Santiago. It now houses a public library.

Magnífico hotel situado en zona céntrica. Habitaciones amplias y limpias. Todo un 4* sin duda. El desayuno, muy completo tal y como cabría esperar en un hotel de esa categoría
Expensive car park. Right next to it you can park but it's a blue zone. About a 5-minute walk away is a free car park area but it's difficult to find a spot.
Parking caro. Justamente al lado se puede aparcar pero es zona azul. A unos 5 minutos caminando es zona libre de aparcamiento pero resulta complicado encontrar sitio

Estado 2 veces en este hotel a través de Buscounchollo, la entrada es a partir de las 14:00, para mi no es problema, en las dos ocasiones he llegado sobre las 11 y 12 horas, con la intención de dejar mi maleta en la consigna e irme a dar una vuelta por Salamanca, y el as dos ocasiones me han comentado en recepción que mi habitación es la standar y que no estaría disponible hasta las 14h.(correcto es lo que yo he contratado), pero si quería pagar suplemento las superior y la premium si estaban disponibles para entrar, puede ser estrategia?.......... o casualidad........

Un 10 de hotel. Ubicación buena, cama súper cómoda y desayuno muy completo y variado. La habitación y baño eran muy amplios y completos. Me volvería a hospedar sin duda.
There is a gym and spa. To nitpick, they didn't inform us about it at check-in and we would have liked to know.
Hay gimnasio y spa. Por poner una pega, es que no nos lo informaron en el check-in y nos hubiese gustado saberlo.
