- Qué tiene: Opposite the church of El Salvador · Suites with balconies, patio or terrace · Breakfast at neighbouring cafés · Right in the old town

Boutique hotel with 42 places in an early 19th-century building on calle Mayor, opposite El Salvador: suites with balconies, patio, terrace or attic.

Balconies over El Salvador
The Círculo Artístico 1911 occupies an early 19th-century building at calle Mayor 5, right in the old town and directly opposite the church of El Salvador, the meeting and departure point of the pilgrimages to the Vera Cruz basilica. The tourist office registers it as a boutique hotel, with 42 places. From the door you walk up to the basilica along the Cuesta del Castillo, and the plaza del Arco is about fifty metres away.
That location matters more than anything during the May festivals: on 2 May at midday the horses climb calle Mayor, and El Salvador is where the Cross spends the night between processions. If you want to sleep here on those days, book well ahead and expect noise and crowds in the street.
Five ways to sleep in the same house
Each room has its own name. The Church Suite has three balconies with wooden shutters more than two hundred years old overlooking El Salvador. The Terrace Suite has a private terrace with views, reached by a wide staircase. The Patio Suite has a private patio painted indigo blue. The Attic Suite, on the third floor, has 30 m², a double bed, a walk-in shower with rain head and views of the monuments. The standard doubles look onto El Salvador or the quieter inner patios.
According to the website, the rooms exceed 25 m², with 180 x 200 beds, individual air conditioning, safe, television with international channels and free fast wifi. Water and herbal teas are free in all of them; coffee, only in the suites. Bathrobe and slippers, minibar, iron, extra bed and cot are requested separately. There is room service and luggage storage.
Breakfast, in the street
The hotel has no café of its own: the website sends you to neighbouring establishments for breakfast, the El Horno Justo café next door (calle Mayor 7), the Café de Andrea in the plaza del Arco, and the Progreso café on the other side of the church. For lunch or dinner it suggests places nearby; for a countryside meal, the Molino del Río is in Benablón, a quarter of an hour by car.
Car and arrival
The streets of the old town are narrow and the website does not say where to park or what time you can check in: ask when you book on 968 70 24 22. Nor does it publish whether it admits dogs.
