Old and new Spain rub shoulders at this chic city centre hotel in medieval Ávila
Pale stone walls, natural wooden windows sheltered by elegant, cream linen shades set a contemporary, pared back tone from the moment you arrive. Inside, you’ll find light, airy rooms that bring the building’s history effortlessly up to date. For an ultra-exclusive stay, book a suite with a private terrace overlooking the gardens. After the heat of the Spanish sun, take a refreshing dip in the pool and lay back on a shaded lounger. Or wander round to the Porch garden, and order coffee or a signature cocktail as dusk falls over Ávila’s ancient walls.
