Your Perfect Stay
Why this destination is a must-visit
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.
- Convento de San Esteban: A Dominican convent with a striking Plateresque façade and an impressive cloister.

The only thing to add was the lack of cleanliness under the bed.
Lo único a añadir, fue la falta de limpieza debajo de la cama.

La ubicación cercana a Salamanca es una de sus mayores ventajas. La habitación era grande y el desayuno bastante completo. En general todo bien 😊
The bathrooms need a serious renovation, that's the only downside I see to the hotel.

Hotel limpio y tranquilo. Lo usamos para pasar la noche de camino a otro destino. Muy correcto y asequible. El desayuno variado y rico.
It would be good to have a fridge, especially in summer, to have cold water, and some rooms had the new bathroom with a shower tray and others did not. It would be interesting if all of them were renovated.
Vendría bien que tuviera nevera sobre todo en verano para tener agua fresca y algunas habitaciones tenían el baño nuevo con placa ducha y otras no. Sería interesante que todas estuvieran reformadas.

Please be more careful in the kitchen with the PPE, always wearing it, to avoid finding any long hair in the food.
Que tengan más cuidado en cocina con el EPI, llevándolo SIEMPRE, para evitar encontrarte algún pelo largo en la comida
