Fonda Del Tozal

Best bar in Teruel, they even had a JJ. Cale live album playing last night, amongst an array of fabulous blues and jazz music.......and it's considerably cheaper than the other bars in town. Lovely staff and plenty of visible screens if you want to watch the football. It was my favourite bar in Teruel.

Without doubt, the most interesting and historical hotel I've ever stayed in, and one of my very favourites. I couldn't recommend this hotel more - though I hate praising it so much as part of me wants to keep it secret, all to myself, for when I return, as I definitely shall. We upgraded our room while booking and for the incredibly cheap price of €70 a night we got a huge room with a bathroom (I fell in love with the sink and ancient taps). The beds were very comfortable, and it was just wonderful to be able to lie in bed and admire the old wooden shutters and look out on the old roof tiles ---------------- this hotel is so full of history it's hard to know where to start! Shutters, doors, beams are all wooden and very old and the owner (manager?) told us a lot about the history: about the horses being stabled downstairs in what is now the bar, about the travellers who stayed there in 1566 (I think). I felt like I was living in a museum, in the best possible way. I loved it. The bar downstairs is also a joy to spend time in as the owner (?) /barman plays fantastic music and loves chatting to the customers --------- you can see how much he enjoys his work and he fills the room with infectious happiness. There is no lift or access for those who can't climb stairs but I would hate to see a lift installed, even though I've huge difficulty with climbing stairs. The lovely woman who was cleaning helped me with my suitcase though and the stairs and landings are so full of old artefacts and photos and newspaper cuttings, I just took my time and never minded the stairs.

Magnifica estancia, todo antiguo pero muy cómodo y limpio. La habitación fué amplia y la atención muy agradable. En el casco antiguo de Teruel, aparcamiento cercano gratuito y de pago. Volveremos sin dudarlo.
