The Hostería Real de Zamora occupies the so-called Palace of the Inquisition, a 16th-century Renaissance building at Cuesta de Pizarro 7, in the historic centre and beside the Stone Bridge over the Duero. It was built by Francisco de Villacís y Ponce de León, first Count of Villaflor, minister of the Council of the Indies and president of the Casa de Contratación, over an important Jewish house of which the mikveh, the ritual bath, is preserved. The palace is listed as a historic-artistic monument.
A palace with a collection
The most striking thing about the house is the cloister patio and the gardens that border the city's medieval wall. Inside there are Gothic carvings and paintings of the Renaissance and the Baroque, by authors or workshops of Murillo, Zurbarán, Cerezo, Morales, Tristán, Ribera, Maíno or Juan Ribalta, according to the hotel.
Rooms
The rooms have wifi, television, telephone, air conditioning, heating and a full bathroom with a bath or hydromassage shower. The house has 24-hour reception, a reading room and a bar-café. The website does not publish the number of rooms, rates or check-in and check-out times: ask on 980 04 50 31 or at [email protected].
With a dog, free
It is a hotel that accepts pets at no cost. The dog can be with you in the room and on the garden terrace, which looks onto the Duero.
At the foot of the old town, beside the river
The Cuesta de Pizarro climbs from the Stone Bridge into the old town: the cathedral and the castle are about ten minutes' walk away, uphill. Downhill, the walk along the Duero crosses the Stone Bridge and continues to the Olivares mills, the river's medieval mills. For dinner in the old town, Cuzeo, next to the Plaza de Viriato, has seven tables and Zamora cooking with game.
If you were looking for the Parador
The Parador de Zamora, on the Plaza de Viriato, is closed for works until 31 October 2027. Meanwhile, the Hostería Real and the NH Zamora Palacio del Duero, beside Santa María de la Horta, are the old-town alternatives in our listings.
