Although it could be said that Cáceres is a city with a heart of stone, it is a characteristic that should not be taken literally. Under the rigid shell of its ochre-coloured buildings, hides one of the most romantic cities of the Spanish geography.
Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1986, Cáceres was a key point on the historic Silver Route between Seville and Astorga. Today, the city is still a must-see for those who are devoted to natural landscapes, medieval towns, the famous local cuisine and of course, the peace and relaxation offered by hotels in Cáceres put the icing on the cake to a charming getaway in Extremadura.
The visit to Cáceres is organized around its historic centre , one of the most important medieval and Renaissance sites in the world. It is here, in the old city with its cobbled streets, where some of the best preserved palaces and fortress-houses in Europe still stand .
What still remains of the Arab walls delimits the perimeter of this city of earthy colours in whose profile can be distinguished, practically from any angle, the silhouettes of more than a dozen towers that dominate the landscape around its Plaza Mayor. It is these walls that today still delimit the two large areas of the city and within whose walls are located the main places of interest in Cáceres. Emblematic buildings such as the Palacio de las Veletas, the Torre de Bujaco, the Casa del Sol or the Concatedral de Santa María, continue to be the reflection of a majestic past full of symbolism that has turned the city into an outstanding enclave of the peninsular historical routes.
The monumental area of Cáceres is much more than just a stroll. Walking among the stones it is impossible not to come across one of the many museums that enrich even more the visit to the city. Places such as the Museum of Cáceres, with a permanent exhibition that portrays the archaeological and cultural past of the city, the Museum of the Co-cathedral or the Casa - Museo Yusuf Al Burch, heir to the Arab tradition of the area.
The choice of a good hotel is one of the fundamental aspects to guarantee the success of a holiday in Cáceres.

However, this does not have to mean giving up the luxuries of a modern and exclusive accommodation, with everything you need for a unique experience.
