Top 10 Las Barricas Hotels

The water in the faucet was too small and it was too uncomfortable to take a bath. Breakfast was good.

This is very comfortable and convenient hotel right within the city walls of beautiful Avila, within easy walking distance of all the attractions. Access to the hotel by car is not very easy, but manageable, and there is some on site parking, although it’s a bit tight. Once parked and checked in you can relax in the pretty garden next to the bar. We were on a half board package and therefore had both dinner and breakfast in the hotel restaurant. The food and service were excellent. I had an enormous salad for my starter and my husband chose the charcuterie plate, which was also very generous. There is no pool at the hotel, but Avila has so much to see that this did not matter. The hotel is set in ancient mansion and the decor, including a full suit of armour in the lobby, reflects this.

We stayed in this hotel for one night when traveling through Spain. We were a family of 8 and rented several rooms. All rooms were clean and the staff was very friendly. The only complaint was that the beds were really hard. I know many beds in Europe are harder than what we have in the US but it was very difficult to sleep. However area is great and the town itself was magical! We really enjoyed our time there and wished we had more time to explore!

While the hotel is not the most modern and its not situated in the hub of the city inside the walls, its staff more than compensate. All the staff I met were very helpful and that included the restaurant and front of house. Despite some language challenges, they always helped to meet any needs I had. The rooms with the terrace are very nice in the evenings and I would certainly recommend these. It has a car park that has ample (but tight) parking. The hotel is also perfectly. Situated well for access to routes for walks etc, it is only 10 minutes walk to the walled old town.

The location of the hotel is good, and the rooms with balcony have excellent views. You can get a parking ticket when you check in and go to a large parking lot. However, the road at the entrance of the hotel is relatively narrow, and parking may be difficult during peak hours.

Well situated for Ávila with an excellent view of the city walls from the rooms at the front. Poor WiFi, very inefficient air conditioning (on the 5th floor) and parking limited to a ‘wasteland’ at the rear when busy The attached cafeteria isn’t very good but breakfast was superb...one of the best buffet breakfasts we’ve had, provided in a very pleasant and spacious room with very attentive staff. Decent value at €97 but hardly justifies its 4 star reputation.
