Hotel Rector * * * *

Hotel Rector in Salamanca is a place to remember. The Hotel is located in the wide Avenue of Rector Esperabe, very close to the old town and just a 7 minutes walk to the Plaza Mayor. The appearance of this elegant hotel belies its age. Though built in the 1940’s it might pass for a 19th century building with its lovely soft golden yellow stone work and iron balconies, but whatever the period the Rector fits in perfectly with its beautiful surroundings. Located by the walls of the Citadel, it is only a stone’s throw away from some of Salamanca’s great monuments, including the Cathedral and fabulous Plaza Mayor. Inside the Hotel Rector, a refreshing air of discretion pervades, nothing over the top and no excesses, yet everything feels just right. Wood is constantly used with excellent results, as in the parquet floors and furniture; the stained glass windows in the lobby are beautiful and general décor is understated yet classy. Bedrooms are also furnished to a fine standard and come with double-glazing. Breakfast is served in the hotel, and for dinner, there are numerous restaurants in the vicinity.
