The Parador de Santo Domingo de la Calzada occupies the former Hospital de Peregrinos (Pilgrims' Hospital), founded in the 12th century by Santo Domingo himself to assist those traveling the Camino de Santiago. Staying here means immersing oneself in an atmosphere of deep spirituality and history, right opposite the majestic Cathedral, in the heart of La Rioja.
The interior architecture is characterized by sumptuous halls, a magnificent lobby with Gothic arches and Mudéjar style wooden coffered ceilings. The furnishing is classic and noble, offering a discreet luxury that reflects the dignity and historical importance of the building. It is a living monument that welcomes modern travelers.
Its location, directly on the Plaza del Santo and a step away from the Cathedral, is unbeatable for anyone wanting to explore the city on foot. The Parador is a reference point not only for pilgrims but also for tourists who wish to discover the La Rioja wine region and its cultural marvels.
The restaurant offers gastronomy based on La Rioja's local produce, with dishes that honor the region's culinary tradition. The menu includes specialties like potatoes a la Riojana and artichokes, all accompanied by the famous selection of local wines, which represents an absolute strength.
Beyond the charm of the Camino de Santiago, the Parador is a comfortable base for visiting key places like San Millán de la Cogolla, the cradle of the Spanish language, and Ezcaray, known for its mountain landscapes. It offers a warm and historic refuge after outdoor activities.
