A 16th-century Spanish Renaissance palace has been transformed into a luxury stay, blending historic grandeur, thermal wellness experiences and even a menu for four-legged guests.
Euronews – Castilla Termal, a luxury hotelier, has unveiled the sixth hotel in its portfolio – a restored Renaissance palace in the medieval village of Peñaranda de Duero.
Palacio de Avellaneda, an 80-key stay, took three years to restore, with rooms and suites now blending contemporary comforts with the palace’s 16th-century original architecture.
Built by the Zúñiga and Avellaneda family in the 16th century, the palace-turned-five-star hotel was declared a monument in 1923 before passing state hands in 1940.
Beyond being a historic retreat, the stay is also a destination for rest and relaxation. The palace’s waters have been declared oligometallic mineral-medicinal and thermal water by the Regional Government of Castile and León’s authorities.
