Don Carlos Cáceres
Highly recommended, within walking distance to the historic center of Caceres and close to nice restaurants for tapas and more. Note that breakfast is served starting 8.00a.m.; so if you have an early morning bus or train to catch, you may not be able to take advantage of it.

Excellent location. Room was very nice and the bathroom good size. Elevator was helpful but optional. Check in was awkward with their automated entry but once in you switched to manual keys which worked fine. Very convenient to food
