A modern makeover has turned this 15th-century convent, just outside San Martín de Trevejo, into a wonderfully smart, comfy and characterful hotel. Bright, stylish rooms, with honey-toned woods and chunky mattresses, are complemented by a spa, a gym and friendly, professional service. From the pool, you'll enjoy beautiful views of San Martín.
