The traditional Castilian furniture is displayed with taste in the spacious, friendly bedrooms, some with four poster beds and terrace, genuine royal chambers in a palace which conserves stately living rooms, ideal for meetings and celebrations, and a 13th c. Romanesque chapel. In addition to a stone courtyard and a modern gym, the Parador's thick stone walls enclose a stately dining room, where one can sample exquisite dishes such as fried bread crumbs with bacon and fried eggs, roast suckling kid, cod prepared with manchego cheese, and for dessert, the famous borrachitos seguntinos or flores de Cabanillas all prepared with the very best regional and seasonal products. Activities nearby include mountain bikes and trekking. The Castle of Siguenza dominates the town from its highest part, presiding over its historical and artistic heritage. It can be reached easily from Madrid and Zaragoza along the N-II. At Km 104 we turn off along the local road, 14 miles from Siguenza; or at 136, at the turning for Alcolea, 12 miles from Siguenza. The Parador is located 47 miles from Guadalajara, the capital of the province. Installed in an Arabic citadel, which was constructed on a Roman settlement, construction on this imposing castle began in 1123, and was the residence of bishops, cardinals and kings. It is a suitable location to enjoy this historical town, close to very beautiful natural spaces.
