Parador De Almagro
16TH C. FRANCISCAN CONVENT
The Convent of San Francisco, built by the Dávila de la Cueva family in
1596, is located in a historical-artistic position of great interest, which
offers the traveller the opportunity to discover the most beautiful parts of
this town and the natural spaces surrounding it, among which stand out the
Tablas de Daimiel. The inner rooms are welcoming with an elegant, peaceful
air, with the 14 inner courtyards, the splendid garden and the swimming pool
standing out from the ensemble. The bedrooms, installed in the former monastic
cells, also offer peace and quiet. Beautiful galleries, wood and latticework
complete the inner atmosphere. In the restaurant the traditional recipes of La
Mancha are accompanied by Arabic influences, among which can be mentioned
"pisto manchego" (fried vegetables), "migas" (fried breadcrumbs), the cod
dishes "mojete" and "tiznao" and Almagro aubergines.
