“EXCELLENT HOTEL, TERRIFIC LOCATION”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

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 rates could go up a little bit, but if you plan to visit Salamanca you really need to check this hotel.

“Great Place!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 October 2011

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 face. I would book there again in a heartbeat.

Room Tip: I really don't know about the rooms. We had one that faced another bldg.

“Nice staff, but scruffy room”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 October 2011

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 way deserved its four star rating.

“Very acceptable choice”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 July 2011

person found this review helpful

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 Square which is about 400m away near the old Cathedral. Staff explained how to get there very lucidly and also recommended a good restaurant which served excellent fish. Clean, comfortable and with the best buffet breakfast we came across in our whole week in Spain.

“Great Location.. Awkward by car.. and forgettable”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 June 2011

person found this review helpful

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.. The TV is tiny and the only English channel is BBC World News. . It's beside a hostel and open bars so don't expect a quiet night. Great city but I think I will try another hotel next time.
