We were greeted very welcoming. The staff is friendly and helpful. Our room was comfortable and clean. We had a bottle of wine with wineglasses awaiting us. We could see the cathedral from our room. The bathrooms are made of marble. The hotel is locted right next to the Plaza Mayor and all the historic sites are in walking distance.... More

This hotel is located in the heart of Salamanca, actually you only have to get out and lost in history, walking around the centre. Roms are good and very nice and big. Breakfast is terrific and staff is helpful with all you need. We stayed in January so we got a real bargain because is low season, maybe in summer... More

We booked the hotel on line and were very happy. Our daughter is studing abroad in Salamanca at the university, and the hotel is very near there, shopping and plaza mayor. It was clean and cute. The beds were a little hard but that is it. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. They always had a smile on their... More

Despite helpful and friendly staff, we can only say we were very disappointed. We stayed in 14 different kinds of hotels this summer in several countries, and this was by far the worst. The room we were given was a garret. The blackout curtains and drapes were hanging off the rails, and the bed was tiny. Overall, it in no... More

Around the corner from a street that can be noisy (but not noisy) and a stone's throw from the main square. 4-star and must have been recently refurbished as some of the comments in existing reviews are just not true. In a cul-de-sac but any competent driver can cope with that and get to the underground parking lot at Columbus... More

This hotel is in a great location in the old town with direct access to the Plaza Major which is similar in a small scale to Madrid. It is not a four star (or anything close) The hotel is basic, comfortable and has all the expected amenities but with a poor shower. It's old but not in a good way..... More

If you're going to Salamanca, this is the perfect location, right aside to the Plaza Mayor Square. It may be a little noisy because of that, but that's Salamanca spirit. Despite of this, Rua Salamanca may seem a little bit too old and some refurbishing seems necessary, but the room and the bathroom were spacious. Anyway, excellent value for the... More

I stayed here for 5 nights with my mother while visiting my daughter, who is studying at the University of Salamanca. I booked it primarily because of location and price. It was so reasonable that I was a little worried that something might be wrong with it. I can not say enough nice things about this hotel. Our room was... More

The claim this hotel makes as a 3 star hotel throws the entire star-system into disrepute. We arrived in a very rainy Salamanca and called for directions (because the online directions do not correspond with the hotel's location). Wearily the receptionist gave rough details as to where the hotel was. Then we called for parking and the receptionist stated there... More
