“Staying in a former convent lends immediate character, especially one so close to Alcántara's Roman bridge. The hotel earns praise for its spacious rooms and quiet atmosphere, though some past guests mention spotty Wi-Fi and needed renovations. Still, I think it's a solid base for exploring Extremadura, blending history with modern hospitality.”
