Hotel Las Cancelas

Hotel Las Cancelas is a 3-star hotel in Ávila, opposite the city walls and 100 m from the cathedral, housed in a 15th-century building in the old town. Its historic architecture is also reflected in the inner courtyard, where you’ll find the restaurant. The 14 rooms are decorated to complement the building’s style and offer air conditioning, a private bathroom and a flat-screen TV. Options include double rooms with twin beds or a large double bed, as well as a triple room; some rooms have a balcony and views of a landmark.

The restaurant serves traditional Castilian cuisine, seasonal dishes and wood-fired meat. Breakfast is available as a continental or buffet option. The hotel offers free Wi-Fi throughout and private parking for a fee, which must be reserved in advance. Its address on Cruz Vieja makes it easy to explore several monuments in the old town on foot, including the cathedral, the city walls and the Basilica of San Vicente. It’s an option if you want to stay in a historic building and be close to Ávila’s main sights.

Room types

Hotel Las Cancelas offers three room configurations: Twin Room, Large Double Room and Triple Room. The first two measure 14 m² and accommodate two people; the Twin Room has two single beds, while the second offers a large double bed. Both have a balcony and views of a landmark, so you can choose between separate beds and a large double bed.

For up to three people, the Triple Room measures 20 m² and has three single beds, as well as views of a landmark. All three options include air conditioning, a private bathroom and a flat-screen TV. They also have a safe, toiletries and a hairdryer; the bathroom may have a bath or shower.
