• Segovia, Castile
  Hotel Infanta Isabel : *** This hotel  is located on the Plaza Mayor, a fabulous location  right in the centre of old Segovia.

Much of central Segovia is traffic free, but  hotel access is permitted.
• Salamanca, Castile    
  Hotel Room Mate Vega : *** In spite of the name, this is perhaps the best centrally located hotel in Salamanca in terms of value for money. Most reviews are very positive, though some complain of noise - but noise is inevitable on warm evenings in Spanish cities. Located in a modernised old building just off the famous Plaza Mayor, near the old university and the cathedral. Parking available.

  Hotel Rural La Casona de Andrea : ****
