Parador de La Granja
Monarchical splendour in the Guadarrama Mountain Range
The Parador de La Granja is in the town of La Granja de San Ildefonso, 11 kilometers from Segovia. The impressive building is in the Casa de los Infantes, which was built in the 18th century by Carlos III for his sons, the Infantes Gabriel and Antonio. The decoration is modern, the rooms are bright and comfortable, and the historical and natural surroundings, along with the swimming pool, make the hotel a perfect place to relax, rest and enjoy the elegant beauty of the place.
Inside the Parador there are three interior courtyards on four levels, which are visible through galleries of semi-circular arches.
After the main building, the former barracks of the Guardia de Corps now houses the Parador’s modern Guardia de Corps Conference and Convention Centre, just 55 minutes from Madrid.
This exclusive venue has 16 meeting rooms with capacity for more than 600 people.
The La Granja de San Ildefonso Royal Site, which has been declared a Historic Monumental Site, was the favourite palace of Philip V. The Royal Palace boasts richly decorated interior, the Tapestry Museum, the Marble Room and the majestic French-shaped gardens.
The La Granja Royal Glass Factory is another essential stop during your visit.
