NH Collection Cáceres Palacio de Oquendo hotel

This hotel is located in downtown Cáceres only a few meters from the Plaza Mayor. It has everything you’d expect from a 4-star member of the NH chain.

The rooms are spacious, comfy, light, and modern, but still retain that classic touch you’d expect from a renovated 16th century palace. The bathrooms are very functional and modern, although the shower walls are quite low and the bathroom can get wet when you shower.

But, it’s the details like the wooden ceilings and the rustic objects scattered around the hotel that really create an agreeable atmosphere.

The breakfast buffet, starting at 16€, is typical of the NH chain.

The more hotels I visit, the more I realize how much I like old renovated buildings. The Palace of Oquendo is a stone construction with a sunny interior courtyard that’s perfect for a drink and a chat.

The hallways are silent and transmit a feeling of peace. The rooms are large and have enormous, comfortable beds. They even had the forethought to leave us a bottle of cold water in the room along with some fruit and chocolate. We had been travelling a long time and all those details were very, very welcome.

The service was sublime and they helped us with everything we needed. They also have wi-fi throughout the entire grounds in case you need to work, but I’d really suggest taking a walk through Cáceres.

The wifi is free here and the connection is good. We stayed in a room that was just down the hall and it was nice. However, it is difficult to access the parking area of the hotel.
