Hotels Near Stone Balance Art in Caceres

The Parador de Plasencia is one of those wonderful historic Paradors with cloisters, wide open spaces for walking and delightful social areas. It’s a great place to hang out and be. The rooms are well appointed , large and welcoming. Breakfast is reliably good and the bar and restaurants excellent. It’s a great place to stay the only excitement is with car parking which uses a car lift to transport you to the ground floor. SUV owners need to take care with this as the lift space is tight but doable….watch those wing mirrors! Brilliant place

This parador is certainly not the most beautiful parador (but the town is superb) but very good and comfortable. What really stood out was the service, at front desk, at breakfast and in the (excellent) restaurant. Efficient, polite and professional. Perfect thus.

We chose this hotel for its location and the private parking. We reserved 2 nights, but only stayed one. We arrived in the afternoon and noticed that the room was full of dust. The door handles were rusted. The small fridge was still dirty inside. This shows that they are not even cleaning it. The sheets were very thin and worn out. Both sheets and comforter were so worn out that they had a light gray color. The bathroom was in need of a good deep cleaning. A lot of dust and scratched areas. We cleaned some areas and all handles with some hand sanitizing wipes that we had brought and removed as much of the dust as possible. At that time, it was too late to find another hotel in the area, so we decided to enjoy Caceres and leave the next day. We checked on hotel.com and were able to add a night to the next hotel on our trip. We did not even unpack. We enjoyed Caceres the entire day and stayed out until late at night. The next day we left early to enjoy more of Caceres. At 2:00pm, after we had lunch, we returned to the hotel to check out. We didn’t want to waste our time giving details to the front desk person, we just wanted to leave. There was nothing this hotel was going to do to keep us there another night. It was not just the dirty room, the overall feel of the hotel just wasn’t right for us. This hotel has a lot of people coming in and out, which explains the wear and tear of the place, but not the dirty conditions. She was very apologetic that we wanted to leave, even though we didn’t complain we just said we wanted to leave, and said that she was going to call hotels.com to see if they could refund that night, but she didn’t think they would and explained something about how they pay them, etc. We told her we did not want a refund. We used the hotel to keep our luggage (we even put the do not disturb sign) and used the parking so we could stay late to enjoy more of Caceres, but now we wanted to leave. She then checked us out, we paid parking and left. When you check in, the front desk puts the room keys inside a box that seemed to be sanitizing the plastic card with ultra violet rays, yet he touched our passports and handed them back to us. They key process is more for a show. They need to pay more attention to what their cleaning staff is not doing. Judging from the amount of people that were there, they might be doing a very quick turn around on those rooms. That is not good, especially during this pandemic. We noticed a previous comment from “Juan Torres, Director General at Gran Hotel Don Manuel” stating they refunded us the money for that night. I rewrote this review to address his comment. Sr Torres, that is not true. We checked our credit card today, in case we missed it, all we have is the parking charge from this hotel. Had there been a refund, it would have come from hotels.com because we booked through them and paid in full through them. It is shameful that a “Director General” would come on here to lie and attack a g

The location and view are highly recommended, better than the 5-star hotel I booked in Mérida, I really like Me encanta el hotel

Love the tune of this hotel very much. Set in a castle-like building, the decorations are also very flavorful during Christmas and New Years. The room is large enough, and the hotel is the commercial area of the ancient city. There are many choices for eating and shopping, which is very lively, but the hotel is quiet. Behind the hotel is the ancient city sightseeing area, which can be reached on foot, which is very convenient.

Very very beautiful hotel, the hotel is large in size, located in the center of the ancient city, completely a modern castle after the change. Plus 40 Euro upgrade to the best room in the hotel, about 100 square meters, the various facilities in the room are very intimate and modern. Next to the hotel is a Michelin two-star restaurant. The 165 Euro one-person package has a total of 16 dishes and tastes great. The hotel has a garden restaurant, orange trees, grass surrounds, very beautiful.

Hotel with some marks of the time, but continues in good shape. Rooms were clean. The breakfast is not a big offer, but it has quality and it's more than enough to eat well. The swimming pool is not very big, but most of the time was empty, so it was a great option. Although the hotel is not in the historical city center, it is not a big distance to it and can be easily done by foot. You have also a few big parks near, where you can go for a nice walk. Free car parking in the street was possible and easy. In a nutshell: Good option for a road trip. Definitely a 4 stars hotel, but not on a higher level.

The environment is good. Good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good. The environment is good. Good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good.
