14th Century Castle
The ivy-covered Hotel is
perched on a sheer drop over the River Águeda valley and the castle
has a keep which serves as an unbeatable observatory to look out over the
Campo Charro landscapes. This is the ideal enclave to discover the beauty
of the marvellous surrounding nature and appreciate the rich monumental
city of Ciudad Rodrigo.
After the impeccable garden,
the meticulous period details, Castilian furnishings, the splendid patio
and bright rooms - some with exceptional views - are highlights.

Savour typical Charro
cuisine
The stone arches in the dining
room are greatly admired, as are the typical Charro cuisine with the standout
local sausage - farinato - succulent roasts and Iberian hams.

Unique Room: Doña
Leonor de Trastámara (129)
Once the marriage between
Fernando I of Portugal and Leonor, daughter of Enrique II of Trastámara,
was arranged, the Portuguese nobleman agreed to hand his wife some Castilian
towns under his control, including Ciudad Rodrigo. Although the marriage
never took place, the towns were handed over - the castle being a testimony
to this. The room bearing her name is both large and comfortable. With
red velvet décor, the 5-metre high vault stands out in this charming
hotel. |
