The main hotel zones in Salamanca are the historic "barrios" of the Salamanca University Quarter and the Plaza Mayor Quarter, both of which include everything from budget hostels to top-notch abodes. In these areas, many of the hotels are renovated historical buildings tucked right into the city streets and surrounded by a delightful hodgepodge of cafés, shops, and restaurants. Plus, these areas are chock-full of cultural and touristic points of interest, meaning that you'll already be close to where you'll be spending a lot of your time.
Other parts of town to check out for hotels are around the train station or bus station. While hotels here are more modern, less atmospheric, and removed from the city, they do offer convenient and immediate access to transportation in and out of the city.
