Bordering the Jewish quarter, this is one of Extremadura's most fabulous hotels. The gorgeous garden – all roses, vegetables and tranquil seating – makes for rural yet stylish relaxation. All-different rooms are full of character, with wooden floors, open-stone walls, elegant period furniture and, for some, a big wooden balcony. Breakfast (€7.50) is a dream of homemade jams, cakes and other local treats.
