KNOWLEDGE OF Toledo
Toledo offers tourists a broad range of accommodation, from cheap hotels and economic guesthouses, right up to the likes of the Parador Nacional and several four-star hotels offering magnificent views of this beautiful city.
Each year, thousands of tourists flock to the historical city, a great rock cradled by the Tagus River where Christians, Jews and Muslims have all left their mark. Due to tourist numbers, the past few months have seen the beginning of several hotel building projects - two luxury hotels in the Historical Quarter (Reyes Católicos and the Plaza del Juego de Pelota) and others in Cigarral del Bosque and Carreras de San Sebastián. There has also been renewed talk of converting the old Hospital de Tavera, which houses the Archivo de la Nobleza (Archives of Nobility), into accommodation. Other hotel chains, such as Meliá, Sheraton and NH, have expressed interest to the City Council in opening hotels in the city.
Many of the hotels already in Toledo are located around the Valle and Cigarrales, as well as on the city outskirts on the roads to Ã?vila and Madrid. There are also good hotels, both expensive and economical, in the Historical Quarter. Advanced booking is recommended, because on public holidays that are considered of tourist interest - Corpus Christi and Semana Santa (Easter Week) - hotel accommodation is at a premium.
Although there are currently no five-star hotels in Toledo, the Parador Nacional is a good choice for those who like luxury. Strategically situated and with splendid views of the city, it holds the honour of being where the acuerdo de las pensiones (lodging accord), better known as the Pacto de Toledo (Pact of Toledo), was signed six years ago. Among its frequent visitors are well-known personalities like football players SanchÃs and Raúl, and singers like Sara Montiel and Juan Manuel Serrat. Very close to the Parador is the Hotel Doménico, more modern but no less beautiful nor less comfortable. In the area of the Valle, between the Puente de Alcántara and the Puente de San MartÃn and along a road running parallel to the river, there are many cigarrales - typical Toledo country homes - that have been converted into hotels. They include AbacerÃa, Los Cigarrales (inexpensive) and La Almazara (very cheap), and all have panoramic views of the city. In the same area, but in a new building, is the AC Ciudad de Toledo Hotel, a popular conference venue.
