This is our Budget choice in Zamora. It works best for couples and solo travellers who plan to spend the day on foot in the old town and want a well-placed room without paying the city median.
The facility list is short: free Wi-Fi, air conditioning and a 24-hour front desk. That is enough for a city break, but not for a stay centred on the hotel.
Skip it if guest score is your main filter. At 8.3, it placed fifth of the five hotels we compared, and breakfast draws mixed comments.
Location and getting around
The address is Plaza del Mercado, 20. Guests describe a central spot within walking distance of the historic district, the Plaza Mayor and tapas bars. The location score is 9.4, its strongest figure.
The Church of María Magdalena is about 0.7 km away, roughly 9 minutes on foot. Zamora Cathedral is about 1.1 km, around 14 minutes, and the Castle of Zamora about 1.2 km, or 15 minutes.
These walking times are straight-line estimates, not verified routes. Expect a little longer on the ground.
What guests say
Location is the clear favourite. Being able to walk to the old town, the Plaza Mayor and the tapas bars comes up often.
Staff also get good marks. Guests describe a friendly, professional team that helps and fixes problems quickly.
Breakfast is where opinions split. It is a buffet with a range of options, but some guests find the quality industrial or the choice limited. Before paying extra for it, consider a café in town.
Price and how it compares with our other Zamora picks
The reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026, for 2 adults in one room, was €66.50 per night. That is about 17% below the sample median of €80.33. It is not a live quote, so check today's price for your dates.
Our Best Value pick, Zenit Dos Infantas, was €80.33 a night with four stars and an 8.6. Our Luxury pick, NH Zamora Palacio del Duero, was €112 with four stars and an 8.8.
All three are four-star hotels, so the difference here is mostly score and price. You save about €14 a night against the Best Value pick and give up three tenths of a point.
