Hospedium Hotel Retiro del Maestre

Location excellent with car parking, helpful staff.

This is a beautiful old mansion reconfigured as a hotel. It has easy, great parking. Our hire car, Peugeot 5008, fit easily in the car park. The staff were absolutely fabulous and helpful in every way. The person on reception came outside when we arrived to open the garage door for us and assured us our car would fit. Later she gave us a map of Almagro and made suggestions for a walk to the Plaza Major and later made further suggestions for a restaurant. Unfortunately, that restaurant had a private booking, so she helped us find another place that was fine. The room was spacious and comfortable, as was the bed. The linen had handmade lace, which was beautiful. In the refrigerator, there were two bottles of water. Our bathroom had a spa bath, a separate shower and toilet and bidet with two sinks and good lighting. Breakfast was plentiful with the usual cheese, ham, boiled eggs, yogurt, fruit, breads, all manner of pastries, cereals, fresh orange juice, coffee, teas, chocolate, hot and cold milk and the potato omelette was delicious. There were other bottled juices, tomato purée with olive oil was available for toast. Plenty of jams and spreads for toast. Cakes, brownies and delicious tiny shortbreads, made it difficult to choose. We had a balcony on the street and there was no noise. Almagro is a very special town of 8500+ populations with a dozen immaculate monuments. The plaza Mayor is a true Spanish jewel. Do decide to stay here. I asked for thinner pillows and there were two extras waiting on the bed. Great aircon, a good lift all the way from the totally secure parking garage and full of lovely, friendly staff. I give it a 10!

Clean and spacious rooms. Silent and quiet place. Less than 5-minute walking from the Major Square. Very easy to find free parking on the same street as the hotel is but still the hotel offers free underground spots included in the hotel rate. Breakfast buffet was simply amazing. Really nice and cool staff. Classical arquitecture of the building.

Very pleasant staff. The hotel was spotlessly clean and full of antiques. We loved the central patio area. Superb breakfast. There is secure parking next to the hotel at no additional cost.

It's a wonderfull authentic hotel on a great location. For me it was just a obe night stopover, but easily could have stayed several days. A nice bedroom with an equal bathroom. Got a good nightrest due to the quiet area. And the breakfast was the best of the week!
