Description

An awe-inspiring medieval history lesson that wins the respect of guests in this castle made hotel-inn, inspired in the tradition of Inns of Tourist Interest, only with greater richness and sumptuousness. Set in Salamanca, the edifice enjoys unrivaled views of the countryside on a large estate covering 116 hectors, replete with oak, pines and poplar trees. These endless flatlands were once observed by watchmen along the castle’s ancestral fortification. The building dates to the 11th century and was revitalized in the 15th century, thanks to the Catholic Kings who turned to property over to Alonso de Valencia, in appreciation of his loyalty in seizing Zamora. It was then given to the Bishop of Ossma don Alonso Fonseca, who built the castle, as we know it today. And finally, it has come into the hands of the Fernández-Trocóniz Family, the current owners of Buen Amor. Its physical characteristics and genealogical history reveal a place more palatial than bellicose, more akin to aristocratic residency than a defense fortress. The castle displays a liking for the refined contour of every detail. Exquisite furniture is found in the lounges set around the Renaissance patio: helmets and armor, chests and cabinets, tapestries and paintings. The opulent collection contrasts with the stern stone structure with thick walls and the contemplative ambiance of the dining hall. Amidst the intricate labyrinth of domed roofs, underground chambers, narrow passageways and staircases, the bedchambers suggest contemporary touches, while embracing a noble past of irrefutable charm. Learn more about the history and visit the rooms in this castle along with Fernando Gallardo.
