Sofraga Palacio
Great location. Easy paid parking. Great breakfast. Lovely room with comfortable bed. Only slight complaint would be that AC wasn't great so room was too warm at night.

Hostal Restaurante Puerta del Alcázar

Parador De Avila
Food in the restaurant was outstanding. We had breakfast, lunch, and dinner over a duration of 2 days. The yemas de parador (dessert) is a must.
