When we checked into our room it hadn't been cleaned properly, the carpet didnt look like it had seen a vacum cleaner in a week! the mirrored wardrobes were full of finger prints, there were dirty tissues under the bed and even a shopping receipt at the end of the bed, even worse on closer inspection after pulling back the bed covers there were black hairs all over the pillow and on the sheets!! Eeek!! when we complained they were very apologetic and moved us to a tiny double room but it was the only remaining room left as the hotel was full, they did promise that the following morning we would be put into a nice room!!
True to their word we were moved to a lovely big room with a jacuzzi bath that made up for the initial disappointment..
The hotel is in a good position as it is just a nice walk across the bridge into Salamanca in the day and again in the evening, abit of a steep climb up into the centre but not a problem at all!!
We chose the hotel also because it had a pool but it doesnt actually get the sun for very long on the pool area due to the position of it within the walls of the hotel, hence the pool was rather cool even in August!!
We didnt eat at the hotel nor did we have breakfast there, we thought there would be alittle bar or shop etc but unfortuntaley there are no facilities around the hotel.
Salamanca itself is very pretty and we would recommend a visit, we found it to be reasonably priced for food and drink compared to Madrid prices, we got the train from Charmartin station in Madrid to Salamanca of which was incredibly easy and took approx 2&1//2 hours..

On the way to or from Santander Salamanca is a good stopover. About half way from where we live in Portugal.
We have stayed now several times at this hotel and have been very happy on each occassion.
Just a short walk across the old Roman bridge and you have the whole of Salamanca at your feet. An aboudance of restaurants in town. Have a beer by the main dquare.
Coming from Santander don't take the first entrance into Salamanca as you have to drive right across town. Take the WEST entrance and it is an easy drive to the hotel.
Only drawback is the the ramp entrance to/from the garage is very steep and with a laden car not easy. Also the door closes very quickly!

Stayed 1 night in a triple room.
Room was spacious and very comfortable.
Very nice bathroom.
Small juliet balcony looking towards city.
Super location 10 min walk to city across Roman bridge
Free safe on street parking by hotel.
Would be happy to use this hotel again.

Stayed here for 1 night in May 2011. Room was spacious and clean, design a bit old-fashioned though. Staff was very friendly and helpful, we accidentally ended up in the wrong room but they were very nice about it and let us stay there instead of moving everything. Location was great, easy to find off the highway and plenty of street parking available. Only a 5-10 minute walk across the bridge to the cathedral and the university. Would stay here again.
