This was can excellent tour of 4 wonderful cities, each of which we have long wanted to explore. The 2 nights in each location turned out to be just enough. All the hotels had character and quality, and were uniformly well positioned for exploring. The Hotel Rector was quite outstanding. There are a lot of churches, but the ones not to be missed are Segovia Cathedral, the Old Cathedral in Salamanca, San Francisco el Grande in Madrid and Toledo cathedral. The Alcazar in Segovia is a "must see", as is Salamanca University buildings and Casa Lis in Salamanca, the art deco museum. It is worth hunting down the El Greco in Toledo. The Inntravel notes were excellent as usual. The architecture everywhere is stunning.
This was an excellent trip which we would recommend. We added an extra night in both Segovia and Toledo which allowed us to be more leisurely and to visit more places. We would recommend the easy walk outside the city walls in Segovia to visit Vera Cruz church and San Juan de la Cruz convent (check opening times). The aqueduct is amazing and do find the view point for it on the high point of the city walls just off the walk notes. The Alcazar is well worth visiting also. In Salamanca we loved the Museo Lis, the new and old cathedrals and Convent de las Duenas. In Madrid we would recommend the jazz evening at the Cafe Central, the Royal Palace, the Thyssen museum. Lots of nice tapas bars on Cava Baja both lunchtime and evening. We had more time in Madrid by travelling later to Toledo which worked well as we had an extra night there. In Toledo we would recommend the monastery of Santo Domingo, the Mesquita del Cristo de la Luz (it's possible to get to this in 10 min directly from the hotel), the cathedral (don't miss all the areas off to the side of the main nave), the El Greco museum and the Sinagoga de Santa Maria la Blanca. For good restaurants just 5 min walk from the hotel, turn right on leaving and then immediately right again through a city wall gate where you will find the very good Estrella restaurant and an excellent Italian restaurant Napoli dei Borboni (may need to book). Hotel Rector in Salamanca was beyond excellent!
The Roman Aqueduct in Segovia was the undoubted highlight of all we saw - what a feat of engineering! The Hotel Rector is superb and Salamanca is a beautiful and interesting city. We extended our stay in Madrid by a day (to accommodate our flights). In retrospect, Salamanca would have been a better choice!

Good way to learn more about Spanish history with some very interesting places to visit. The highlights for us were Salamanca and Toledo.
HIGHLIGHTS: Hotel Rector! Restaurante Hacienda del Cardinal (try the marzipan cake!).
Walks: if time, do the walk outside the city walls in Segovia and especially in Toledo along the river (very beautiful, need about an hour).
Salamanca - Casa Luz (beautiful interior and IS open on Mondays); we enjoyed the view from the tower in La Clerica (an alternative to the cathedral tower). Segovia - a short walk to get there but we loved the small but wonderfully shaped 13c Knights Templar 'Iglesia de la Vera Cruz'. Madrid - Basilica de San Franciso El Grande - magnificent. Warning: the Templo de Debod had no water at all in its pools and very long queues to get in (as only 10 people can be inside at one time) so think twice about making the journey there!
Our highlights
Segovia: Roman Aqueduct & Alcazar
Salamanca: Hotel Rector - exceptional service and concern for guests, Plaza Mayor and University buildings, Gonzalo's restaurant
Toledo: site of old city reached by 6 escalators, amazingly narrow streets, El Greco Museum
Spanish trains
We had too many highlights to mention all of them. We absolutely loved the Hotel Rector in Salamanca. The understated but wonderful elegance of the hotel and the service could not be surpassed! There were so many little extras which added such a lot to our stay. The Museo Lis was fantastic as well as the Palace of Monterrey. We found a great little restaurant called ' The Pecado' which was on Calle San Pablo. Small, upstairs with excellent food, mainly frequented by locals.
The Hacienda de Cardenal hotel was wonderful and we were delighted to have a wedding going on while we were there. Food there excellent. Segovia was lovely too and a walk on the opposite side of the river was a nice experience as was our visit to the Alcazar. The hotel in Segovia was perhaps the least interesting in itself but was in a great location. Madrid was great and we enjoyed the Royal Palace and the Thysanoptera gallery although it was difficult to navigate. We loved the market and the Venecia bar on our last night was great fun. On your recommendation we went to the jazz bar too and loved it.
Travelling in Spain by train is a pleasure and a wonderful way to move between these fascinating cities. We went in Semana Santa, somewhat by chance, and it was wonderful to be part of this cultural highlight for Spaniards too. The walk notes allow you to really explore each city and their intriguing corners, with plenty of opportunities to stop and find delicious refreshment along the way. We recommend relying on the excellent bars and tapas as you go for a relaxing and interesting time well spent!
