We stayed at Huerta Honda for 2 nights at the end of June and had a really nice stay. Situated right next to the Parador de Zafra and within walking distance to the main square.

We happened to be there for a Medieval festival weekend and the crowning of Spain as European football champions. Was a great night.

Parking and traffic can be a bit tricky and the hotel parking is about 8-10 euros per day to use their garage, but might well be worth it!

The Huerta Honda is an excellent hotel , opposite the Parador in Zafra. It is a traditional old Spanish hunting lodge with an internal patio which is wonderful to sit and have an early evening drink. We have stayed there a couple of times and think that it has a better atmosphere and is better value than the Parador. The rooms in the original building have been updated and are very spacious - some with an outside private courtyard. The bathrooms are spacious and well fitted. In the newer part of the building the rooms are decorated in a modern minalminist way and have views over the Patio and across the town. The staff are welcoming and the food in the restaurant is good.There is a large car park outside with free parking. Zafra intself is a perfect place to stop for one night - it has a very attractive old centre with two typical colonaded plaza's. I would thoroughly reccomend a stop here.

Next to the Parador de Zafra, this hotel is nicely decorated, with good buffet breakfast and excellent price. Traveling from Caceres to Salamanca, we decided to spend the night at Zafra´s Parador, which is highly recommended. There was no availability there but were not uptset at all at staying at this hotel. The only available room was the royal suite which we took by 100 euros plus tax.
