The Hotel Abad Toledo is situated in the midst of these magical streets of Toledo’s city centre. The hotel is just steps away from the Cristo de la Luz Mosque and a quick walk from Zocodover, the city’s main square. The building which now houses the Hotel Abad Toledo was a blacksmith’s shop dating back to 1815. Within its walls the guests find three star accommodations marked with unique character and personality.

The hotel’s privileged location within Toledo’s inner walls enables the visitor to visit the city’s most emblematic monuments, museums and churches on foot.

The hotel was opened 5 years ago by a family whose main goal in the building’s restoration was to conserve the building’s historic integrity. Through painstaking restoration of this 22 room “boutique” hotel, the conversation of exposed brick and stone, beams, artisanal woodwork, and picture windows vestiges of the building’s past are easily discerned.

The rooms are divided between four floors of this old blacksmith’s shop full of traditional Toledan masonry and large windows overlooking the historic city. If the guests are looking for magnificent view and La Mancha´s natural light, the Hotel recommend the rooms on the top two floors of the hotel. The most impressive of the rooms is undoubtedly the suite: cathedral ceilings with a loft perfect for an entire family. All rooms have both internet and WIFI access, satellite TV, safe, music, air conditioning, telephones and bathrooms of modern design complete with hairdryers and other amenities.

An edgy minimalist aesthetic and the presence of the underlying wooden structure dominate the hotel’s architecture. The use of oxidized aluminum and daring angles are softened by characteristic Manchegan colours which brighten many walls: tile red, cobalt blue and ochre. The guestrooms are decorated in these same contrasting tones with custom-made curtains and bedspreads in an attempt to inwardly reflect the character of La Mancha. Yet, at the Hotel Abad Toledo, design and practicality go hand in hand: the Hotel also take into very serious consideration the needs of the handicapped, with lift access to all floors and designated rooms equipped to permit wheelchair access.
