La Antigua Botica, Pasarón Overview
La Antigua Botica is located in Pasarón, Spain. Rated 9.7 out of 10 based on 5 guest reviews.
La Antigua Botica in Pasarón, Spain, is a small, family-friendly stay that feels rooted in the local landscape rather than a big-hotel routine. Set on C/ Real nº 42 in the village area, it’s the kind of place where guests talk about the calm atmosphere and the way the inner courtyard keeps things peaceful. With a guest rating of 9.7/10 from just five reviews, the feedback points strongly toward comfort, quiet nights, and thoughtful day-to-day details.
Rooms are kept comfortable year-round with air conditioning, and you’ll also find non-smoking rooms and non-smoking throughout for a cleaner feel. Soundproof rooms help when you’re recharging after hikes or long road-trip days, while the shared lounge/TV area and board games and puzzles make it easy to slow down together. For longer stays or families who prefer flexibility, the shared kitchen and the terrace add practical options, and the BBQ facilities are a straightforward way to turn an evening in into something special.
If you’re planning time outdoors, you’ll be well positioned for countryside walking routes and viewpoints around the Pasarón area, plus day trips toward Monfragüe National Park (about 55 km) and Plasencia’s historic center (about 62 km). Guests also mention the value of having a quiet base when they return from scenic drives toward Garganta de los Infiernos (about 32 km) and nearby valley trails.
La Antigua Botica is best for couples and families who want a peaceful rural base with shared spaces for downtime, and for road-trip travelers who don’t need on-site parking because they’re exploring by car.
