🏨OUR HOTEL RECOMMENDATIONS IN EACH SPOT
⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯
11. Santiago de Compostela. Hotel Pazo de Altamira is a lovely, modern hotel within a gorgeous old Galician stone building. And it’s right opposite the fabulous market! bit.ly/2HDJwL2
10. Jerez de la Frontera. Definitely try and stay at the famous Hotel Casa Grande - a big old mansion with a gorgeous rooftop terrace for drinks - bit.ly/30K5HXr
9. Vera Valley. I would suggest staying in the village Valverde de la Vera and my pick is the cosy and rustic La Picota: bit.ly/2VMT7D3
8. Cadaqués. I love Tramantua Hotel, a white-washed gem run by a husband and wife team… service is fantastic, and it’s right in the old city, plus near the beach: bit.ly/2JCPpdP
7. Cáceres. We stayed at the budget but good Hotel Iberia Plaza Mayor with views of the square): bit.ly/2K4CuAv. If you want to stay IN the old city though, the Parador here is a 14th century palace - the full Caceres medieval dream! bit.ly/2HUT3w8
6. Oviedo. Prices in Northern Spain are often cheaper, so you can happily get a great hotel here without spending a lot. Check out the excellent Barceló Oviedo Cervantes: bit.ly/2YPLXQA
5. Zahara de los Atunes. Either go with Hotel Avenida Playa (simple, clean, and right off the beach - bit.ly/2W1z60u) or the slightly more chic Hotel Doña Lola - bit.ly/2VWA89q
4. Las Alpujarras. Casa Rural la Fragua is a gorgeous little tucked away whitewashed apartment in Capileira (either stay here or in Pampaneira). This place is perfect for exploring the villages around the area. bit.ly/2QqUUgg
3. El Rocío. I love Hotel La Malvasía with its old-world luxury, the fact it’s only a 5-minutes walk from the famous Santa María del Rocío church and they also have a terrace which is perfect for sunsets. bit.ly/2YNXkbA
2. Mejorada del Campo.
Bus info: www.madridbuses.com/autobuses... (take the bus from Conde de Casal). Don’t spend the night there. It’s a day trip. But my favourite Madrid hotels are below (in descending price order):
Pestana Plaza Mayor (right on Plaza Mayor and with a pool) - bit.ly/30HN725
Gran Hotel Inglés - bit.ly/2HD8REI
The Pavilions - bit.ly/2VSsFIi
Vincci The Mint - bit.ly/2Xam51o
7 Islas - bit.ly/2QuDGi0
1. Cádiz. Right in the old town, I love the wonderful Hotel Boutique Convento Cádiz, housed in a renovated 17th century monastery: bit.ly/2VSszjU

    Good point about generalization.. in another video you mentioned that people in Spain don’t really do siesta. That was my experience also when I was in Barcelona recently. But back in 2003, during the Iraq war, I med-evaced a wounded Soldier from Iraq to Naval Station Rota Spain (about 100 miles north of Gibraltar?). I wasn’t able to get out and see the town until around 12:30 pm, and they’d rolled up the streets. EVERYTHING was closed and locked up! When I got to the beach to take a dip in the ocean, I found the businesses on the waterfront WERE open. I asked one of the employees at a beachside bar why everything was closed in town and he said “Siesta”. At the time, I was a Critical Care Care & Trauma RN in a Field Hospital, serving in the US Army. Later that night I was in a nightclub on the coast about 30 miles south of Rota, in some place that my Navy companions referred to as “Porto”. I was concerned because the war was very unpopular with the Europeans and was worried about hostility or trouble with the locals. To my surprise, even though they somehow immediately recognized me as an American, they were all SO kind.. buying my drinks and asking me to dance with them, etc. They put me at ease and made me feel very welcome. I’ve LOVED Spain ever since, and return on vacation every chance I get. It’s a beautiful county with beautiful people! 😎

    Big cities changed with globalization. Used to be, in the early 1970, la siesta, everything closed down, and I was used to go for a walk and felt weird, I was the only one out in the streets. Also, el sereno, another tradition, if you came home late, like 11 or 12 and maybe couldn't find your key, you clapped loud and the sereno came around and opened the door for you, I guess he had every building keys!

I have just come back from Spain and Italy with my daughter and son in law.. because he promised when he was dating my daughter to take me to any country i wanted to, in my heart of hearts to see. I wanted Spain! Oh my ! I love Spain so much. One of my special moments..among many was Besalu. Stunning in it's beauty. We drove and air Bnb from Barcelona to Besalu and found ourselves in the old quarter, in the middle of a film set for Westworld!!! Ha! .. AND the beautiful and stunning Ronda! so gorgeous! Massive cliff face withe village clinging to it's tops. The Sierra Nevada and the rugged ,strange mountain range absolutely floored me. I have eaten so well and am a Vemud junky, Albondigas are my fave food and cava and I want to cry because I want to go back now! Cadaques was stunning and Setinel de la Bodega was where i had a tomato that bought tears to my eyes. I love Spain and she is in my blood now. Thank you for your love for her.

    I fly into Barcelona late April. This is my third visit to Spain. I wish I'd discovered your videos before previous trips. Discovered you quite by accident and thought "That guy sounds like a Kiwi". Have watched many of your videos now. I am 73 and travel independently although joining a Spanish-Kiwi couple and their daughter Moana in the south of Spain where they live. I felt an instant connection to flamenco since my first flamenco class 30 years ago under a Spanish teacher. I no longer dance but love flamenco in all aspects and love the history, especially of Andalucia.

    I second James' agreement and your original comment. My parents in law live in Bilbao and I was married there. I know the North pretty well and I love it. My Spanish family come from Valladolid and so they travel between those two cities. I'm very familiar with Castilla y Leon. A region I find endlessly fascinating. Madrid is an exciting centre and a city I very much enjoy with a bit of everything. (I deeply regret the hostility between the two great cities of Madrid and Barcelona - It's not a competition guys.) Once you go south of Toledo it's a different country. La Mancha and Extramadura are not very well explored but fascinating to anyone interested in Iberia. Finally it's the brilliance of Andalucia (where I have a little home), which in terms of natural landscape has to be the most varied in Spain and, probably, the rest of Europe as you say. I've still to explore Galicia and Valencia properly but that will happen. I love the in-between spaces of Spain. The landscape between journeys. It's spectacular driving country with a lot of glorious hidden gems.

    Hey guys, from my personal travels in Spain , I would add the beautiful Santillana del Mar in Cantabria. It was like traveling back in time! A small medieval village with cobblestone streets, artisan shops, dim lights at night, I found it very romantic. There is also a zoo which is a plus for families. There is a torture museum which I enjoyed a lot ( I think I need to see a shrink 😂) then we took a ride to Comillas, another great charming village, this one is by the sea and hosts Gaudi’s Capricho monument, very much worth a visit. Both had amazing seafood dishes x

(Not getting political guys, it's just a fact.) The cathedral is sensational, especially the original one. The clean air of the region has ensured the wall art is almost like yesterday. Probably the best Plaza Major in Spain.

    I organised a trip with friends to Ubeda, Baeza and Cazorla in Jaen. The Renaissance architecture in Ubeda is fabulous and when we first went very unexpected, like being in Italy. Olives made the area rich in the 16th century when a lot of the buildings were built, but the family fueds made everyone too poor to replace them so they have been preserved. In Baeza there are also Roman remains as well as the renaissance, the University is a lovely place to have breakfast. Cazorla is a short drive away in the national park, and is great for walking and visiting the bars afterwards. We had a wonderful 3 days.

There are so many now during the summer that you can't drive up to the lakes but must go by bus. A similar phenomenon has occurred with the Playa de las Catedrales. During the summer you can only go down if you have made a reservation.

    Just like to say that you guys are spot on! I love your channel and enjoy it throughly. I'm a londoner of Spanish parents and it's given me a refresher course! I recommend your channel to all my friends and have tried some of your recommendations including Botin for my birthday. I watched your KZread episodes again on the Iberia flight to Madrid. As a disabled traveller I would love to see if you could try to cover some wheelchair accessible restaurants. Eg places you would recommend that have no steps and a suitable toilet. Remembering that the food is number 1. You guys have made want to return even more to Spain. "¡Vamos - con el arte que tenías!"

    Random comment, as I have been watching your channel pretty steady for a couple of weeks. I just wanted to say thank you for such an enjoyable time and for really educating me about Spain through its food, which has really helped me better understand the food in San Antonio, Texas. I moved here 21 years ago from San Francisco because I couldn't afford to buy a house (one of the few reasons to have left) and as I have learned about the Mexican food, which is markedly different than the same in California, I was introduced to so many new foods: breakfast tacos, chorizo, migas, al pastor, pico de gallo, etc, but to hear about what is in migas in Spain, or rather what is missing (no tortilla chips? lol), and to slowly but surely see how the tortilla really means something different, and how overall the cuisine is much more "European" than "Mexican", really turned my mind upside down for minute. It was very welcomed. Thanks!

    When you were in Cadaques, you could have suggested Salvador Dali's house in Port Ligat. You have to book your entrance time. Ask at tourist office.There's a lot to see but it's like one-way street inside the house and gardens. But well worth it.What I remember with affection is that he kept Crickets in tiny little cages hanging on the walls , so he could hear their sound !And Port Ligat is a nice place to wander about too of course.

    Love Salamanca. Incredible history, art and architecture. It has so much it's hard to believe how much of the old city was destroyed during the Franco period. (Not getting political guys, it's just a fact.) The cathedral is sensational, especially the original one. The clean air of the region has ensured the wall art is almost like yesterday. Probably the best Plaza Major in Spain.

    Hi James and Yolanda. The place that left the biggest impression on me during my last trip to Spain was Avila. Although it's a bit touristy got to say I was knocked out by the picture post card view of the village in the valley below the castle. I'm finally returning to Seville for a month in September and was looking at day trips only yesterday. I'll be there for Jerez's sherry festival and will also slot in Cádiz for a visit. Just recently discovered muscles in Galician sauce at the supermarket and am addicted. I was thinking of your mega supermarket tour in Madrid when buying them. Also trying to augment my rudimentary Spanish in the next three months.

    My Spanish father in law does not care for Avila but I think it was because he did business there many years ago. I really enjoy it. Usual UNESCO Spanish site but what a site. The wall is incredible, of course, but first class churches and a very interesting Cathedral. Naturally, the food is top notch. Avila, Segovia and Toledo are well worth a day trip (or two) for those staying in Madrid.

    Well, this was unexpected. Very good video this week. Way to mix it up. While we love the amazing food tours you take us on, this was really cool of you to show us around the county(some place not Barcelona, Sevilla etc) We loved it! For us this was particularly helpful because we visit Spain, 2- 3 weeks at time in the off seasons, to avoid crowds, pretty much every year since 2003( hanging out mostly in Madrid, our home away from home) but lately we've set our itinerary's to spend the first 7-10 days seeing new pueblos in the country, then unwind the last week back in a flat in Madrid, visiting our favorite "old" places whilst adding new favorites to our trip. This is where Spain Revealed comes in! This year is Northern Spain/Picos de Europa on a 10 day drive, then back "home" to Madrid. Maybe, we'll bump into you again this year. Great work!
