Parador De Chinchon
17TH CENTURY AUGUSTINIAN CONVENT
Founded by the Lords of Chinchón in the 17th c., this former Augustinian
convent protects its monumental heritage in that of the old quarter of
Chinchón, with its emblematic Plaza Mayor. In this framework the cypress
trees, roses and privets of the garden offer a beautiful picture, with the
addition of a splendid cloister and toned down by the blue of its swimming
pool. Walls with a Renaissance stamp, large windows and vaults, classical
and Castilian style furniture, and its pleasant, spacious bedrooms make up
the inner space, which is characterized by an atmosphere of peace and quiet.
The dining room offers "sopa de ajo" (garlic soup), sucking pig and roast
lamb.
