Hotel Cetina Palacio Ayala Berganza

What a lovely hotel! A conversion from an old mansion, with heavy, high timbered ceilings, lovely spaces inside and out, a bar and an excellent buffet breakfast. We were upgraded to a huge room with a luxurious bathroom (nice toiletries). Our receptionist Cinthia is a credit to the Berganza; she gave us lots of tips and suggestions about places to visit, eat and just walk around. Segovia is a lovely city, with its Roman Aqueduct and Alcazar, and simply wandering around it is worth it. You can get a high speed train into Madrid in just 25 minutes, which is how we arrived in Segovia. The railway station is out of town and you'll need a bus (2.50) or a taxi. There's a very good bar restaurant nearby; turn right out of the hotel then right again, and it's there on the left. We found some of the waiters in the main historic (touristy!) areas (including the Mayor Square) rude, so our friends around the corner were a treat, the food was excellent and the prices were very reasonable.

Everything was terrific! The staff was pleasant (and spoke good English, which was great since our Spanish is minimal). It's a beautiful and beautifully redone building, with lovely stone and tile work, definitely not run of the mill. The location is excellent, a few blocks from the busy main street but in a calmer area so it was quieter at night. There is a pleasant courtyard to sit in as well. Everything was clean and well cared for. Breakfast was delicious with a large buffet of hot and cold items. There was nothing at all about our stay that our party of four didn't like!

Really great hotel and good value for money! We had a cozy and spacious room with a direct exit to the garden, and we loved it :) Everything we asked for from the reception was organised very fast, people at the bar and restaurant were very kind and helpful, housekeeping was great as well. The breakfast was tasty and with a good variety! Thank you and we will be happy to stay at this hotel again.

Really helpful and friendly staff. Room and room facilities were excellent. The welcome drink was a really nice touch especially after a long drive. Public car park only a few minutes walk away.

Nice and helpful staff. Perfect location 3 minutes walk from the aqueduct. Really nice breakfast - good quality jamon and cheeses. Exquisite room, with great view. Really nice bathroom, with huge windows. A really nice touch - the TOUS toiletries and even a hair straightener. And a hint for those that enjoy local food - just across the street, you can find a great restaurant - La Codorniz.
