Parador De Siguenza

4-star castle hotel in a 12th-century Arab fortress

History & Architecture

Parador De Siguenza is housed in a 12th-century Arab fortress that later served as a residence for bishops and kings. The hotel preserves original stone walls and arches, and guests can visit a 13th-century Romanesque chapel on-site. This castle setting provides direct access to centuries of local history, with hallways and courtyards that retain their medieval character.

The hotel's restaurant serves traditional Castilian cuisine in a stone-walled dining room with archways. Menus include gluten-free and vegetarian options, and the kitchen focuses on local culinary traditions from the region. A bar with a coffee house on site and a kid-friendly buffet are also available.
