Fantastic stay, even better than expected. We loved our stay in Salamanca and definitely want to come back again. A large part of that is due to Hospes Palacio de San Esteban. It is a historic property next to a monastery in the very heart of Salamanca, but due to the monastery it is very quiet. There is an outdoor pool, which was great in the July heat to cool down after we arrived. Staff was really nice and helpful, valet took care of our car and charged it as well for our trip to Madrid the next day. We explored Salamanca by foot from the hotel which is really easy. Breakfast is good as well.

Nothing we didn’t like.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The location is ideal, with a stunning view that you get to enjoy every morning from the perfectly positioned infinity pool and restaurant terrace. The pool itself was the perfect temperature—very refreshing and relaxing. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, offering us great tips that led us to some of the best restaurants in town. The welcome process was smooth and warm, making us feel relaxed from the start. Our room was upscale, comfortable, and high quality—everything felt thoughtfully designed and well maintained. The food and drinks were also top-notch, with great attention to both flavor and presentation. Overall, a beautiful and memorable experience. Highly recommend!

Hotel is in a superb location, no more than a kilometre from all the major sites in Salamanca. Despite this the hotel provides a tranquil and quiet atmosphere. The reception staff are excellent, especially Paulino, who couldn't have been more helpful. There is an extensive breakfast menu available in addition to the buffet. All excellent quality. Parking is an optional extra but super convenient. We had a cloister view room which was extremely quiet and the bed very comfortable.

Although the pool was open it's not in the most convenient location in relation to the main buildings. The outdoor furniture here seemed a little tired.

We always stay here en route from southern Spain to Santander or Bilbao where we are catching the ferry to England. It’s the perfect stop for us and is very relaxing after a long drive. Pet friendly too which is important to us plus easy secure parking 👍

We ate in the hotel restaurant this time as we’re too tired to go into town. The hotel restaurant looks lovely and the menu seemed good with a good choice and reasonably priced however the food was disappointing. It’s fine dining which we are not a fan of. My husband had cod which was full of bones and it was served on top of a few peas - that’s all - no potatoes or any other veg. I had some pieces of pork served on top of a few shitake mushrooms - nothing else - again no potatoes which seems strange. Breakfast however is excellent and needless to say we were starving so made the most of it! 😂

A true character hotel, superbly located for a stay in one of Europe’s great cities. From the first moments of check-in we were made to feel welcome, important and respected. The staff went out of their way to ensure we had all we needed and that we would be able to make the most of our visit. While parking is limited, the hotel staff ensure every vehicle is looked after. The room was large, spotlessly clean and comfortable. Best hotel stay for some time.

Salamanca is a wonderful city, fabulous heritage, good restaurants, and so much character. The Hotel is located close to the centre of the city, and like the city it has a lot of character being a converted monastery. The rooms were well appointed, very clean, a good size, with an excellent bathroom. Breakfast was also excellent. All the staff were very welcoming and very helpful.

I would have liked underground parking, but that said, the parking was very secure.

The check in was fast and professional. The room was on thr first floor and easy to reach. We had a de luxe room and it was fully to the standards of luxury. The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. In the beginning there was a little issue about the heating. The weather was chilly and the heating was turned off. We complained and our complaints had effect. From that time on it was nicely warm in the room from late afternoon on when we came back from the sight seeing. The roomservice was very fast. The location of the hotel is great. In less than five minutes you are in the historic center.

It was a disappointed to learn that the outdoor swimming pool was still closed. Among other things we choose the hotel for the swimming pool. But indeed the weather was too cold for being outside in swimming trousers. But we can imagine how nice it will be in summer time. There are no negative points to mention. We enjoyed our stay.

The hotel is perfectly located close to all the bars, restaurants and shops. We were booked in for one night only but wished we had organised to stay longer. The room in the hotel was spacious with a large comfy bed with views to the Cathedral. The outside gardens and pool area were a real bonus. So good to be able to relax after a few hours of meandering through the city. The hotel staff were lovely and very helpful. This place has been added to our top 5 and totally recommend and hope to visit again.

Gorgeous property and location in the beautiful historic old town. Very welcome greeting to us and especially our cocker spaniel on arrival late at night by evening male reception. Breakfast was very nice

It was a very cold morning so disappointed breakfast staff didn’t allow us to eat breakfast somewhere inside? Considering it’s a dog friendly hotel we were surprised the staff couldn’t be more accommodating. Last time we stayed with our dog we were allowed to sit in the bar area as it was freezing outside eating on the terrace.

Huge, very comfortable room and bathroom. Quiet, beautifully decorated and loved the fresh flowers. Breakfast was lovely. Location was excellent for wandering Salamanca. Hotel smelled lovely (weird thing to mention but it was noticeable). Drinks in bar were very reasonable.

Pool was not open in early June - and did not look as if it would be open in the near future (hotel said 20th June was beginning of summer and it was due to open then) as peeling walls, empty and awaiting a good clean when we visited . Garden was roped off most of time. Pool featured heavily in photos of hotel and was one of the reasons we booked. Appreciate that a pool can be seasonal - but when it is 30 degrees in June then would expect it to be available or make dates much clearer in promotion (we booked through Booking.com)
