This is a beautiful hotel built into the huge stone walls of Ávila. We were on our second visit here and it was even better as we had a room with the lovely fresh and health breakfast. Every staff member we met was friendly and very professional making our stay great. The parking is good easy to get to private onsite and open air, great for an suv driver. We love this hotel see you again next year.
Great walking around the magnificent walls at night.

A lovely place to stay

This is (so far) the best place we have stayed in Spain. It is well situated just inside the city wall (which actually forms one of its walls) with excellent staff, several eating options and a pleasant outlook. Our room was large and well furnished and in Avila everything is in walking distance. We liked the hotel so much we stayed another night

100% would come back!

Fantastic location and rooms are very comfy. The staff were all very friendly and spoke English well. We had a great time in Avila and the fact that this is right at the castle gate and forms part of the castle wall makes this place so special as well as easy to get to. Parking is secure and easy too.

Great comfortable beautiful hotel!

The staff were wonderful, room was beautiful and the bed most comfortable. Because the city was making repairs on the wall that is a shared wall with the hotel, be sure to ask about a room that is further away. Not sure how long the repairs will continue through no fault of the hotel. All in all it is a lovely hotel with a great location. And very professional staff. A good stay in Avila!
