Salamanca Hotels

Some of Spain’s finest hotels are known as paradors which are often ancient buildings.

The Salamanca Parador hotel is actually a modern hotel standing on a small hill opposite the city. It is in a perfect location for exploring Salamanca’s historic centre. The common rooms of this modern parador are spacious and elegant and offer panoramic views as do the swimming pool and most of the bedrooms. Guests can make the most of the restaurant to sample Salamancan cuisine such as ‘hornazo’ (bread filled with meat), Hinojosa cheese, ‘tostón’ (roast suckling pig), ‘rosquillas de Ledesma’ (a type of doughnut) and ‘almendrados’ (macaroons).

If you’d prefer to be more central to the city then here are our recommendations.
