Parador De Guadalupe
15TH C. HOSPITAL
The Parador, with its conventual style, rises up on what was the former
Hospital of St John the Baptist, a historical 15th c. building. It is a
comfortable, friendly space, with whitewashed arches adorned with vegetation,
an invitation to peace and quiet in the setting of a beautiful town declared
a Historical and Artistic Monument. The garden stands out with its luxuriant
plants and flowers, its secluded swimming pool, spacious common rooms on the
inside with white walls, and bedrooms which recall the religious function of
its origins. The simple but delicious local cooking can be seen in
representative dishes: "bacalao monacal" (cod, potatoes and spinach), "ajo
blanco extremeño" (garlic dish), "migas extremeñas" (fried breadcrumbs),
"pollo a lo padre Pedro" (chicken), Iberian sausages, "caldereta de cordero"
(lamb stew), chestnut pudding and "muégado de Guadalupe" (fried sweet).
