Apartments in Avila

If you are looking at apartments in Ávila, the first thing you should know is that there are 112 accommodations of this type in the city and its surroundings, with an average price of 119 euros per night and a minimum of around 68. The offer is varied, from central studios to houses with gardens on the outskirts, and the average category is 3.4 stars, so don't expect great luxuries, but rather practical and well-located stays. To choose well, it is advisable to know what each area offers you before booking.

The old town, inside the walls, is the most touristy option and the one that allows you to walk to the cathedral, the convent of Santa Teresa or the plaza del Mercado Chico. Here the apartments are usually in renovated buildings, with few parking spaces nearby and cobbled streets, so if you travel by car, consider parking in the parking lot of the walls or in the station one. The area of the Plaza de Santa Teresa and the Paseo de San Roque is somewhat quieter, with good restaurants and quick access to the Salamanca road, ideal if you want to combine city with excursions. On the other side of the Adaja river, neighborhoods such as San Nicolás or Los Balcones offer larger and cheaper apartments, but you will have to walk about fifteen minutes to the center; in exchange, you will find supermarkets and green areas nearby.

As for the price, the months of July and August are the most expensive, as are the December long weekends and Easter, when the city fills up. If you can, travel in May, June or September: the weather is pleasant and the apartments drop quite a bit, especially during the week. Getting there is simple: the high-speed train station is about a ten-minute walk from the center, and if you come by bus, the station is on avenida de Madrid, with urban lines that leave you at the walls. To get around, the best thing is to walk, because Ávila is small, but if you stay outside the walled enclosure, the urban bus works well from 7 in the morning to 11 at night. Before booking, check if the apartment has an elevator, heating (in winter it is really cold) and if the price includes final cleaning or only the initial one; also check if the kitchen has a dishwasher or washing machine, because it is not always specified. Real examples that you can find in the listing are the VuT Dalia, the VUT iDesign 2, the VUT La Casa de las Flores or the Roxy 1, each one in a different area, so compare well the exact location on the map before deciding.
