Parador de Alcalá de Henares, Heritage hotel in Alcalá de Henares, Spain.
The Parador de Alcalá de Henares occupies two separate buildings with 128 guest rooms that combine traditional architectural details with contemporary comfort. It functions as both a hotel and a protected heritage site.
This structure dates to the 17th century when it served as a college and convent. In 2009, after major restoration work, it became an official hotel while maintaining its historic fabric.
The restaurant blends regional Castilian cooking with dishes inspired by Cervantes and local food traditions. Diners experience how this area has long celebrated its culinary heritage through simple, honest preparation of local ingredients.
The property sits within the university and historic district, with 70 parking spaces available for guests. Most attractions in the old town are within walking distance, making exploration convenient without a car.
The hotel spa sits beneath the vaulted ceilings of the former convent church, preserving the original stone arches and sacred spaces. Guests relax surrounded by centuries-old architecture.
