Location: Hispano Continental Salamanca is a Spanish language school located in the historic and student-friendly city of Salamanca, in the region of Castilla y León, in North West Spain. The school is housed right in the middle of the unique Salamanca, in the historic centre of the city, a stone's throw away from Plaza Mayor. Students can immerse themselves in the urban and cultural life of the city by visiting the numerous museums, restaurants, and cafes that surround the area. Attractions within walking distance of the school include the Campo de San Francisco Park, the Casa de Las Conchas, Monterrey's Palace, Casa Lis art museum and Salamanca Cathedral.

Social and cultural: The school has a social calendar with many optional activities and excursions for students to take part in. Available activities can include city tours of Salamanca, cooking classes and excursions to Avila and Segovia. Salamanca is a UNESCO World Heritage City with much to offer.

Course selection: In addition to General Spanish taught to students of all levels, over various schedules and intensities, Hispano Continental also provides Language & Culture programmes and DELE Exam Preparation.

Getting around: Salamanca is a fantastic city to travel around on foot. The school's central location allows students to walk around many of the city's main attractions and features. For anything slightly further afield, the closest bus stop to the school is just a 300m walk away and the central train station of Salamanca is a 25-minute walk or 10-minute taxi ride away.
