Spain (Charming Small Hotel Guides)

Charming Small Hotels: Spain provides the only color accommodation guide to Spain that accepts no money for an entry. Packed with charming hotels carved out of every type of building, from the historic to the humble, Charming Small Hotels: Spain includes full-color photographs of each hotel along with a full-page description, maps, and hotel name and location indexes, and covers all regions of Spain, as well as Andalucia, the Balearic Islands, and the Canary Islands.

The Charming Small Hotel Guides, started in 1986, provide detailed information on small, unique hotels, B&Bs, restaurants with rooms, pensiones, and other types of accommodation. Perhaps the most beguiling characteristic of the best places to stay in these guides is the feeling they give of being in a private home-but without the everyday cares and chores of running one.

What distinguishes Charming Small Hotel Guides is a variety of factors. The guides are the only independently-inspected (no hotel pays for an entry) accommodation guides; they focus on places that have real charm and character; and they are particularly fussy about size, with most hotels having fewer than 20 bedrooms. In addition, each entry is accompanied by a color photograph and a full-page description.

Charming Small Hotels offer more than just a bed for the night. The editors look for hotels that have that extra special something, regardless of category and facilities, that make them worth seeking out.
