Castillo del Buen Amor is an absolute gem! Staying in this beautifully preserved medieval castle feels like stepping back in time, yet with all the modern comforts you could wish for (except for the Wi-Fi, which didn’t work—but honestly, that just added to the charm!). The grounds are stunning, with serene gardens and breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. Be sure to visit the labyrinth, where you can meet two adorable donkeys!

It was the perfect stay! I knew I wanted to indulge my young boys and take them to a castle in my home country, but there were so many options... I could not have chosen better! Honestly, if the location doesn't matter to you and what you are looking for is that "magical experience of staying at a castle", this is it. It is still quite close to the beautiful city of Salamanca, so the location is not too bad at all, but you do need a car and breakfast included, you can see that in the map. However, once you arrive, you just don't want to leave the grounds. It is the perfect place to relax by yourself, with a partner, maybe a romantic getaway, or with the whole family. We had two standard rooms that were great and a very special one at the bottom of a corner tower. It had a full bathroom, a living area where they put the extra bed, and these crazy old stairs going down under the tower where the ceiling was a dome made of brick maybe 700yrs old. It was incredible. It is well worth the splurge! My kids were in absolute heaven. (The little one said he was scared at night, that's how cool it was!!) They loved it. The pool was perfect, well maintained like everything else, their is a lifeguard 11am to 8pm while it is open, and it has a few lounge chairs and tables with regular chairs around. They have towels for you. You can walk everywhere around the castle and it is full of beautiful details, everything is stunning, clean and elegant. There are a couple of living areas that I just wanted to sit in and spend an hour just looking around. The staff is super friendly, super helpful, but it was grossly understaffed... it took a good while to get a drink at the pool and I simply had to go back to the reception area to ask for ice because none would come to the bar even though I kept ringing the bell. The dinner was excellent. You have many areas to choose from and they set the table for you in any nook. It was great food, traditional but elevated, my kids had fresh pasta with boar ragu and felt like real royalty in the middle ages!! The service was slow but it was stressful to see the 3 waiters/waitresses literally running everywhere doing everything. They were literally out of breath, up the stairs, down the stairs, to the pool, to the tower, to the kitchen.... I just hope they get more people, that's all. They were still the nicest people and they don't try to be extra sugary because they don't work for tips like in other countries. It is just good professionals. There is a winery on site and plenty of room to walk around, it is especially pretty at night.

100% recommended. I absolutely love this place, I have visited several times and even celebrated my wedding here!! Food is amazing and the place has a unique charm like no other! The staff is lovely and attentive, every corner is pristine clean and the rooms are wonderful with super comfy beds. Also they make their own wine and it’s worth a purchase!

Unique experience, great value especially mid week, busy at weekends, staff are mostly great some not so much, hard to get good staff so remote. Dog friendly. Great pool.

One of the most amazing and unique places I have ever stayed. So peaceful and such a great weekend with my wife and son. Plenty of great gravel riding in the area too.
