Hotel Alfonso

The location is excellent — very central, and whichever direction you walk, there is something nearby. I especially liked the street next to the hotel that leads toward the river, and the main square is also only a short walk away, with plenty of places to sit in the evening. The suite was beautifully designed and very comfortable. The beds were excellent, extra blankets were available, and the small kitchenette was extremely useful. Breakfast had a very good selection, the food was great, and the coffee machines were excellent.

I expected the suite to be a little larger. Also, the bathroom and toilet are not fully separated from the room, so it is best suited to couples, families, or people who are very comfortable with each other. The blinds in the living area and bathroom cannot be fully closed, so the room is not completely dark during the day. The minibar was stocked, but everything required a bottle opener, which I couldn’t find in the room. There is no balcony, and the window does not really provide a view or much fresh air. Breakfast also ends at 10:00, which felt a little early compared with other places.

Great location

Nothing

The location was excellent and we walked to all attractions. The staff were friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable after a long day of walking and the shower was good.

This hotel was undoubtedly the height of sophistication in the 1970/80s, but nothing has been updated (except for the bathroom) since then. The TV did not work at all and the blinds could not really be opened. Few of the available lights worked. We were there on the weekend and were fascinated by the people partying in the streets until dawn. If you are a light sleeper this would prove difficult for you.
