Eurostars Palacio de Santa Marta

Above Plaza Mayor, the refurbished 16th-century Santa Marta Palace combines slick, wood-floored chambers with original features such as exposed stone walls and high ceilings. There’s a summer-only pool. For prime vistas over the square, book a superior or premium room. Spacious room 208, with its little pillared balcony, is stunning, as is two-balconied 206. Outstanding breakfasts, too.
