Hotel Ele Puente Romano de Salamanca

Starting from the reception, we felt very welcome in this beautiful comfortable hotel. The staff is very friendly and helpful, the receptionist offered us a map of the old town and gave us valuable pieces of advice about what to see and where to eat. We had to leave early the next morning, so an early breakfast was arranged for us. And then, when we arrived at our next destination the next day, we found out that we had left some of our clothes in the room. We contacted the hotel, and they advised us of a delivery company in Salamanca and packed our parcel to hand it to the delivery agent. We texted them through the Booking.com App, and their answers were prompt and to the point. We appreciate their concern and assistance very much. The room was very comfortable and spacious, with a beautiful view of the Roman Bridge and the old city.

We stayed here twice on a recent driving holiday to Spain. We chose to have one of the superior rooms with a terrace. It was worth it for the extra space and the spectacular view. Its similar to the one from the parador which is situated further up on the same side of the river. The other rooms looked fine and have a very small outside space- no view. It all feels slightly old fashioned but in a good comfortable way - excellent beds and shower. Terrace and outside seating would benefit from a little attention. Breakfast was fine and varied. Its 15 minutes walk across the Roman bridge and then uphill into Central Salamanca and worth pacing yourself as you may want to return there in the evening for dinner. It is a great location if you are driving and want a stop in Salamanca - very easy and fast to find from the motorway and has free safe parking on local streets/ at the garage opposite and an underground car park, fee payable, if you prefer that. Its 3.5 hours from Santander and Salamanca is a great city to visit. We liked it enough to stay on our return trip - not our original plan but we had a good second visit.

Location. The old town is just steps away. The view from the terrace was exceptional (I specifically asked for that). The receptionist spoke good English and was in line with the hotel look and feel. The buffet breakfast was very good, a lot to choose from and have gluten free options . I had to ask a lady who served breakfast for that. She is very sweet and the gluten free bread was ready the next morning as well (we stayed for two days).

Good location close to the old quarter of the city.

Great location with a spectacular 10 min walk across the Puente Romano into central Salamanca which is simply breathtaking. Room was an excellent size and very clean. Plentiful free parking in the immediate vicinity of the hotel.
