The Parador de Sigüenza is housed in an imposing 12th-century medieval castle, built upon an ancient Arab alcazaba. This historic fortress dominates the entire city of Sigüenza, offering guests a lodging experience that is a true journey through time. Its history is rich, having hosted kings, cardinals, and bishops over the centuries.
The stone exterior and austere facade impress, but it is inside that the historical charm unfolds with its cobblestone courtyard, the 13th-century Romanesque chapel, and the majestic vaulted dining room. The common areas blend medieval elegance with essential services, creating a unique and memorable atmosphere.
The 81 rooms of the Parador, including the Standard and Superior Doubles, have been updated to offer modern comforts such as free Wi-Fi and air conditioning, while maintaining an aesthetic that perfectly integrates with the historic building, often featuring wooden balconies overlooking the city and its surroundings.
The restaurant at the Parador de Sigüenza is one of its strengths, cementing its status as a champion of traditional Castilian-Manchegan gastronomy. In a distinctly medieval setting, guests can savor iconic dishes like meat roasts and 'migas,' prepared with fresh, local products.
The Parador's location makes it the ideal starting point for visiting the most emblematic sites of Sigüenza, primarily the Cathedral, the Plaza Mayor, and the walls. Furthermore, it is an excellent base for exploring the surrounding nature, such as the Río Dulce Natural Park, offering a perfect blend of history and nature.

His Opinion: Le Parador, installé dans une ancienne forteresse trônant majestueusement au sommet de la petite cité historique de Sigüenza, est monumental au sens propre du mot. On peut parquer son véhicule dans l'enceinte même.
Derrière ces murailles, les salles grandes ou petites, les cours et les décors vous font remonter le temps dans une ambiance d'époque sans rien concéder en matière de confort.
Nous avons apprécié la chambre et sa petite fenêtre moyenâgeuse ouvrant sur les grands paysages, la qualité de la cuisine gastronomique, la richesse du petit déjeuner, et le bonheur de commencer la visite de cette paisible cité superbement préservée dès le premier pas hors du Parador.
