"Posada Real Castillo del Buen Amor — The Castle of Good Love — is aptly named. The original fortress dates back to the 11th century, and in the 14th century it was transformed into a palace. Today, it offers guests a unique opportunity to step back in time while enjoying historic rooms equipped with modern conveniences.
Dining in the restaurant — located in the original dungeon — was a highlight. The food was excellent and moderately priced, adding to the overall value of the stay.
The castle is conveniently located about 20 minutes outside of Salamanca, making it an ideal retreat while still accessible to the city.
The only drawback is accessibility. Due to the historic nature of the castle, there are numerous stairs, which may present challenges for guests with limited mobility.
Overall, expect to relax, explore, and fully enjoy the many unique rooms and spaces throughout this remarkable property."
"Fabulous place in a beautiful village. We were given instructions for self check in and they opened the restaurant just for guests, which was excellent as minimal places to eat. The food was fabulous and the lady serving was very friendly. Comfortable room."
"Food was amazing, cleanliness very good and comfort was also good my only complaint would be service, Fawlty towers springs to mind for those of you that remember it, service was painfully slow. It's quite a secluded place and great if you just want to relax we found it to be more akin to an old folks home tbh but it didn't bother us as we weren't there during the day, the pool would have been good if it was clean though. "
"Great quiet spot. Close to shopping without street noise. Rehab of Mercado building across the street is not a bother at all. Would definitely repeat stay."
