Sometimes the best you can say about a thing is what it is not, rather than what it is. The Microtel Placentinos is not a chain-style hotel (although those, too, have their uses) with a waffle iron in the breakfast room. What it is is a carefully designed and cared-for property that makes maximum use of its heritage setting on... More

Stayed here in mid-October 2011. Absolutely loved this hotel. Tucked off on a quiet side street but only a few minutes walk to the Plaza Mayor. The room was gorgeous with an exposed brick wall and wood trim. The bathroom was very nice but I couldn't figure out how to operate the hydro massage in the shower. Had a bit... More

The hotel looks pretty at first sight but the rooms are too small, the power cut out when you try the hydro-massage function on the shower, the breakfast is very basic and the price is far too expensive. It would be a great find if the price was more reasonable, but at 120€ per night for a double it is... More

Unfortunately we only had time for one night in Salamanca but would have liked to stay longer as Microtel Placentinos was really comfortable, the staff were extremely helpful and the location was perfect. Right on the edge of the atmospheric university area in the old part of town, and only five minutes walk from the cathedrals and plaza mayor. Our... More

The Microtel Placentinos really is pretty micro, but quite nice and good value for the money. It's just a couple blocks from the plaza mayor (kinda hard to find) and the rest of the sights in town. The rooms have a combination lock instead of a key which was good, I suppose, we didn't have to carry a key with... More

Microtel Placentinos is a perfect small hotel. The staf spoke extremely limited English and I speak extremely limited Spanish, but there were no problems (other than my blowing the fuse with my blowdryer and adapter and trying to explain it with my hands!) and the staff is extremely pleasant. It is in a great location convienently located near the University... More

We spent 3 nights at Placentinos in October. It's a great little hotel. If you're looking for a cute, small (only 7 rooms I think) and personal hotel this one is for you. The room itself was very comfortable, the bathroom clean and well appointed. The breakfast, which was included, was better than most, with cheese and meat, juice coffee,... More

Cute boutique hotel, beautiful room and nice bathrooms. The hotel is on a side street and our room overlooked an interior courtyard, so there wasn't much noise from the street. However our room was on the same floor as the reception desk (literally ten paces away) so we did get noise from people coming in and out of the hotel,... More

A beautifully and tastefully renovated townhouse, everything is like new but in classic-rustic style, with touches of modern interior design (a glass elevator is clearly an addition). Staff is kind and polite. Rooms are beautiful and clean, with laminated parquet floors (so much cleaner and elegant than carpet !). This is a very small hotel with less than a dozen... More

I stayed with my partner in this nice little hotel at the begining of june '09 for two nights. We got a warm welcom from a smily receptionist. After the first formalities were done we had a chance to explore the room, take a shower and relax on a comfortable bed. Room wasn't very big but very cosy and clean.... More
