Overcharged for Room
We were very disappointed to find that the restaurant was not open. I requested an extra pillow which was never provided. We were charged 67.09 Euros for the room and not the expected 54.01 Euros.

This is a clean, and quiet place, very handy if you are on a road trip and need a stop off not far from the motorway. The staff are friendly but for those that dont have any basic spanish you will struggle. There are no tea/coffee facilitates in the rooms which is an annoyance. I am sure they wouldn't like me in my pjs in the restaurant. During April when we visited it actually looks like its being run on skeleton staff and areas such as lounge bar is closed, swimming pool closed until June. And the sauna you have to pay extra for. But its friendly, clean and quiet..

Not as expected
Hotel decor is outdated. We were not told that the service provided depended on occupancy. We had no access to lunch, tea, coffee or drinks. The restaurant was closed for lunch and the bar closed in the evening. The outdoor pool was not filled so the photo is misleading. The indoor pool was however available. We were told to go the nearby gold club restaurant for lunch. The meal was appalling - everything from a jar, can or pre-packaged. The breakfast was very good and the only redeeming feature. Fortunately we were there only for one night because we were on a road trip so booked a hotel close to the motorway but far from the city so do not use if you intend holidaying in Salamanca.

Wouldn’t go back.
They have a bar that I think is only for decoration. There is nowhere in the hotel to get a cup of tea as there are no kettles in the room and when we asked if we could have one we were told “It’s not possible.” The pool doesn’t open until 11:30 which even some Spanish people booking in couldn’t believe and you can’t take a cup of tea out of the breakfast room to sit outside. The night staff on reception were lovely. The daytime staff, didn’t want to help. It’s a hotel where they are only interested in the people who play golf. Oh and it is a ten minute taxi ride into Salamanca with nothing much around it.

Horrible pool area. You had to bring your own towel from home! No lounge chairs and 1 employee at pool bar for many people. Air conditioning did not work in jr suite room… in August! Restaurant food was good with excellent service. That was a nice surprise!

Oligarch's vision of a hunting lodge
Arrived late, everything shut apart from restaurant. Massively overpriced and not particularly tasty "haute cuisine". A/C didn't work so they moved us. Didn't work again. Gap between glass shower door and bath so water went all over the marble floor, causing my wife to slip and hurt her arm. Reception didn't seem particularly bothered when we told them. Very hard bed.

Short stay in Salamanca
The hotel was fine, the public areas were ok, but a little dated. The cleanliness was first class, the staff were very helpful and polite. We had an evening meal, which was very tasty. The only downside was the bed mattress, which was rather hard, nearly solid!! As we were only stopping a couple of nights we put up with it. ( Typically British ) overall we were very satisfied with the hotel, it's staff and facilities, at the price we paid.

Convenient for Salamanca
Being winter, there were very few people staying and the facilities were limited and the restaurant was only open for dinner for one of our two nights. It felt a bit soulless but when busy, it would probably have more of a "vibe" about it. It was, however, a very good base for visiting Salamanca..
