12th Century Medieval
Castle
Installed in an Arab fortress,
built on Roman foundations, the construction began in 1123 of this imposing
castle, home of bishops, cardinals and kings. This is an appropriate base
for exploring the historic town and the beautiful landscape around it.
The hotel’s traditional Castilian
furnishings are tastefully displayed in the large, comfortable rooms, some
with canopied beds and terraces, authentic royal bedchambers in a palace
which has kept its lordly halls, ideal for meetings and celebrations, and
a 13th century Romanesque chapel.
|
|
|
| Within its thick stone walls
is the cobbled courtyard and an imposing dining room, where you can enjoy
fried eggs with breadcrumbs and lardoons, oven roast baby kid, cod with
Manchego cheese, and for dessert the famous borrachitos seguntinos and
flores de Cabanillas.
Everything is prepared with
the best local, seasonal produce.
