Housed in a former convent, built in the 15th century, the Parador de Plasencia hotel has kept its stunning, original architecture, including spacious hallways, archways and courtyards.

A beautiful historic building with the original features preserved. Wonderful decorative touches. We enjoyed the spacious room, comfortable beds and standard of cleanliness was very good.
We enjoyed a lovely meal in the impressive dining room. The female staff were very welcoming.
We succeeded in parking a Citroën C5 aircross SUV but only just. We used the car lift down to the hotel car park but it was tight .
Offering free Wi-Fi, Hotel Exe Alfonso VIII is located just beside the main square of the charming town of Plasencia. The spacious, air-conditioned rooms include flat-screen TVs and a minibar.

Plasencia is a small town, the centre has narrow hilly streets, parking in the centre is difficult but there is plenty of free parking near to the park with an escalator to take you up the steep hill to the centre. There are several supermarkets, a Carrafeur on the North side and several smaller supermarkets on the south side. There is a river running along the East side.
There are many restaurants available, fast food near to the Carrafeur and more upmarket ones in the centre. Plasencia is at the foot of the Jerte valley, where most of the cherries in Spain are grown, you can drive to the top of the valley, which takes around an hour and is very scenic.

Interesting old town and surprisingly few tourists.
Interesting old town and surprisingly few tourists. We booked in advance a guided visit (in English) through the tourist office wich is to recommend.
We tried the restaurants InMercado and Casa Juan and both had good food to fair prices. Casa Juan had an unusual table decor and served a typical local dinner including the sheep milk cheese Tarta de Casar.

Surprisingly attractive old town which is the perfect base for touring this attractive region. Atiu can walk everywhere particularly around the medieval walled city with a myriad of narrow pedestrian streets and bustling plaza full of bars, quaint shops and restaurants. We liked the traditional Bar Espagnol and for breakfast El Montadito. Churros are a must!
Thé quarter around the parador is particularly stunning with old churches, plazas and monumental decaying palaces topped by multiple stork nests. Similarly around the old cathedral, Santa Clara monastery. Calle Del Sol is the main shopping street leading to a lively plaza just outside the city walls. Take time to visit La Isla gardens beside the River Jerte, also popular cafe and restaurant with outside terrace, where a riverside walk takes you all the way up to the dam and reservoir in the Jerte valley. In the summer this provides the local people with a large outdoor nature asl swelling pool. From here you can discover the north of this attractive region. Taking day trips by car to the Jerte valley, La Vera, Ambroz with Hervas, then the towns of Caceres, Trujillo, Guadalupe and the incredible Monfrague national park.m with its towering crags g ce ibères with black and griffon vultures. Definately worth a longet stay

The hotel is located on an industrial estate.
The hotel is located on an industrial estate. The heating in our room was not working, so we had to change rooms which the management did straight away. We had a very basic evening meal, but the breakfast was very poor.
I would suggest this hotel is best suited to people working in the area rather than tourists.

Ask at the hotel how to walk into the centre of Plasencia.
Ask at the hotel how to walk into the centre of Plasencia.
You follow a little stream for about half an hour.
The centre of Placencia is walled with a cathedral in the middle.
A lovely square is nearby where you can eat.

Very nice small town, with an interesting old part.
Very nice small town, with an interesting old part.
But Beware of the Public Parking in the centre! It has 4 floors but the first two are private! So you have to go down a narrow and winding lane to the two bottom floors. The spaces are also very narrow and it can be hard to manoeuvre with a big car.
Despite needing an upgrade the room was spacious and clean. We even had a balcony which would have been lovely if the weather had been better. As it was on the edge of town, there was plenty of car parking at the front of the hotel. It was such a shame it was foggy the next morning as there were lovely views of the surrounding hills. We only stayed one night.
I found the city of Placentia to be very interesting and enjoyable. The Hotel real it's on a hill overlooking the old city. Once we learned a shortcut access down from the hill to the old city was not too difficult. The hotel has a good restaurant that is open for the main meal. The staff were very nice and helpful
The owner met us by the secure, free car park which was a few minutes walk from the apartment. Central for all to see in Plasencia. The apartment was clean and quiet and ideal for a couple. If you need help the owner is ready to help.
Good: location, new, clean, bed.
Spacious apartment and well located to visit the city center of Plasencia. Clean, quite new, and really really comfortable king size beds. It was okay for a weekend stay.
Beautiful apartment in Plasencia. Clean, quiet, comfortable and an easy walk to whatever you want to see inside the city walls. Great for a single person or a couple. Don't hesitate.
not a lot - the location is awful, the photo showing the pool doesn’t give any indication of the fact the hotel is on an industrial estate and is very misleading.
