I was asked what time I would like breakfast delivered which I thought was lovely. They did not tell me breakfast would cost €32 which added 30% to my bill!
Great location
Location Family room (4 beds)
We had a flood in the bathroom, when emptying the bath, the water came up through another drain on the bathroom floor. I assume this has happened before as the bathroom and hallway doors were already water damaged. The girl from reception came up to clean the water up, however we had already done this ourselves using the bathroom towels, which were quickly replaced.
Loved the quiet and beautiful setting amidst gorgeous historical buildings with a fabulous view of the cathedral from our balcony. Great bathroom. Big room and bed. Very tasteful communal areas. Just great all round.
Nothing really. Only niggle was there should be at least two sachets of every drinks type on the tea making tray and not one sachet of every type! I like coffee. My husband likes coffee. We need a sachet each!!

Due to restrictions the breakfast was on pre laid up trays with lots of packets of dried foods! Not very appetising!

Great location, underground, covered parking. If you have a low vehicle, you will be fine in this parking lot. Room was spacious for my family of 4; beds were nice and comfy!!! Overall great experience!! Recommend!!
Because of COVID, restaurant was closed. Can’t blame the hotel for this.

What a great 4 star hotel that is really a 5 star hotel. Great room with a great view. The breakfast is excellent and on site restaurant for dinner is a classic 5 star hotel. Hotel is close distance to plaza Mayor. We would stay here again.

Incredible views and onsite parking. I'd highly recommend this place.
The location is good to go walking to most places. Parking is comfortable and big. The front building of the hotel is really pretty.
One of the rooms smelled like tobacco.
Great location Really friendly staff Excellent Hotel
The location is excellent. We have stayed before
The bed was a nightmare, neither of us slept. It was meant to be special, but the four poster creaked with every move. It kept us awake all night. Dreadful. Will not stay again.
We did not eat there but the beds were the beat ever! The staff was very helpful.
Everything was good.
Everything was great and everyone very hospitable!
We initially had a problem parking our car in the lot. the directions were not explained well enough and caused some stress, but then everything was fine! (If you are not from Spain...more specific directions would have better.
Lovely hotel.
The location was great being right in the city. The breakfast was fabulous with so many choices and a good value for the price that I paid. Beautiful hotel and would definitely recommend it to others.

Room was very hot A/c not working.
Beautiful and right in the heart of the city Salamanca. I loved incorporating the old building to this new use of a hotel. The bread was great!
Loved everything about it.

Clean, spacy room, comfortable bed. Beautiful panoramic view on city and cathedral. Few minutes walking from top spots. Friendly staff. Very good price. We did not have breakfast due to the many offers in nice cafes in town.
No complaints at all.
Very friendly and helpful staff. All amenities available. Very central for being a tourist!

Great location! We had a room with a small balcony that had an amazing view. It is also located in a very quiet location.
Water occasionally dropped in temperature but nothing too bothersome
Fantastic location and lovely clean, light and airy family room - very comfortable beds!
Beautiful hotel I’m s lovely location
Parking at 18 Euro’s a day is a lot and increased a lot in the last year!
Bed was large and comfy
The noise from a wedding party went on until 4.30am, no sleep and a long drive in the morning.
Very well located, nice and comfortable room with a spectacular view. Excellent ratio quality/price.
Loved everything BUT I wish you had a place to buy souvenirs.
No souvenirs shop with FONSECA name on it.
Beautiful property, staff were so lovely and helpful. Would stay here again
Outside quiet aerea with beautiful view at salamanca
Noisy in the morning You can hear when the rooms next uses the shower for a 4 star hotel not acceptable!!!
Very clean and spacious the view from our window was gorgeous the cathedral would light up each night as the sun goes down and that was our view. The staff was so accommodating and polite very nice!
I had to finish my masters degree at the University Pontificia of Salamanca and graduate
Very luxurious place for a fair price. Room was beautiful, appointments were nice, and the bed comfortable. I would have prefered and actual large bed rather than two twins pushed side by side, but perhaps it's the type of room I had.
The sauna was out of order, and I didn't realize we needed to ask to use the hot tub :(
The best breakfast I have ever had. Really great. Great location - in the middle of the city. Beautiful view from the window at the Cathedral.
The pillows was very big and hard and thus very uncomfortable. No kettle in the room.
Over all excellent
The typical local staff at the breakfast
Super, great family room
Location, comfort

Comfortable clean hotel overlooking the old part of the city but within easy reach of everything.
Unhappy pool area not working
Great location, good beds, spacious rooms, as for a room with a balcony if possible. Hi
This is a lovely hotel on the edge of the historical part of Salamanca. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Our room was enormous, nicely decorated and the bed very comfortable. We were within walking distance of the cathedral and main square. We only stayed for one night - wished we could have stayed another. The parking on site was very convenient. Breakfast in the morning was delicious with a lot of variety. We highly recommend staying here.

Located In the historic center. The room wa very spacious. Good breakfast. And parking under the hotel.
Missing a way to make thee or Cafe in the room.
Staff at reception and bar very helpful but breakfast staff less helpful (actually looked as though they didn't care).
Breakfast experience - stale bread, greasy eggs and bacon and less than helpful/friendly staff when we asked for some fresh bread.
Location is fantastic! Close enough to walk yet quiet enough to rest.
We were within walking distance to everything we wanted to see. The hotel has a lovely restaurant where we enjoyed dinner. The room was spacious with two comfortable chairs and a small table plus a desk and chair. The windows opened to a lovely view of the abbey. We could sit outside the bar and have a drink, which was really peaceful. The bathroom was spacious, that area, wardrobe and bathroom could be closed off from the rest of the room.
Nothing!
Location, view, food! Our third stay here and we love it and recommend it!
ALL excellent, room, staff + food , we will search out more hotels of this company in our future travels. The dinners & breakfast were sumptuous, + excellent staff.
tea & coffee facilities in room will make it perfect
Great buffet breakfast at 10 euro Staff veryhelpful Location superb
Slight smell from drains on arrival.
Location is fantastic .Worth the stay
Location and staff!
The showers in the gym/spa area need to be renovated. Also the carpets in the room do not feel clean.
Standard good hotel, value for money, spacious room and a good breakfast buffet
Shower temperature fluctuated constantly, cranky phone to call reception, interior needs a touch up
The facilities were beautiful, the size of the room much bigger then I expected and the staff were really friendly. Will definitely recommend this hotel to friends.
Would have preferred one big bed instead of 2 beds put together. a bit too warm in the room and in the halls.
Breakfast Room was very comfortable. Great location. Friendly staff
Room service food was woeful. Club sandwich was the worst I have had. So disappointing. Hotel a little dated.
The bed was very comfortable and the views of the room were amazing
They tried to give me a room with no views even if I was paying extra for this
Great location and loved the jacuzzi.
Nothing
Nice and quiet location. Large room. Perfect view on the cathedral. Availability of a parking garage.
The lobby, bar and restaurant lack atmosphere and do not invite for a stay.
We like this hotel,the location is great, the room is OK, there is no boiling kattle in the room, but we can get from room service without charge.
nothing.
Great location. Large and comfortable room.
Location perfect bed lovely comfortable
Didn't rate this as 4 star thought the hotel was expensive
Seeing the sunrise over the city from the bedroom window, on site indoor parking, walking distance to Salamanca's huge main square and all other tourist sites
Parking is awful, tight and overpriced (18 our/night) much easier to park on street.
Large room in modern hotel. Easy access to town center
Breakfast was a bit pricey as was parking. You can eat breakfast at any nearby place but parking on site is a must.
- location next to the key sightseeing places - parking - spacious number

Very spacious room with fabulous view of the cathedral - well worth paying for a room with a view! Staff were very helpful and private parking is good.
Very spacious room with balcony and great views of Cathedral and old town. Excellent location: short walk to Plaza Mayor and the sights. Convenient parking on site.
