Abode Turned Into A Lovely Guesthouse

Once a mansion, now a enchanting guesthouse. Hostal del Cardenal is an archetype of the old-days mansion turned into a modern and tasteful hotel. Once a sumptuous abode of the Cardinal of Toledo, Hostal del Cardenal still exhibits the gorgeous feature of the mansion.

My three nights at the guesthouse was nothing but a luxurious experience of the past with a little touch of stylishness. My guestroom was commodious complete with flat screen television and international channels. Also, a dressing room was on hand just off the tasteful bathroom. I spotted as well that the doors were thick and perfectly carved, which gave me a hint that those must be the original.

Hostal del Cardenal has splendid features inside as well as attention-grabbing qualities outside. The garden surrounding the guesthouse was still and delightful with all the pretty fountains, trees and flowers providing the picturesque scenario. And inside the garden were well-known restaurants. No better way to eat than being close to the nature while appreciating its quietude.

To boot, if you are entranced about culture, history, and art you might want to stay at this hotel because this proves to be the best spot for people like you and me.
