A noble
Aragonese-style building in Sos del Rey Católico, Aragón,
Spain
|
Of Aragonese
character, the building conserves the monumental, historical and artistic
atmosphere of Sos del Rey Católico.
The town,
declared a Historical-Artistic area, was the birthplace of influential
nobles and of the Catholic King, and the influence of the Aragonese and
Navarrese foothills of the Pyrenees can be made out in its landscape. It
is an appropriate setting to discover this medieval town and to visit areas
of immense beauty.
The
regal and elegant interior offers beautiful views of the town from some
rooms. Wood covers interior columns and predominates in the Castilian style
furniture. Space and light are a common feature in the bedrooms, thanks
to their large windows.

Dining:
The restaurant offers tradition
and authenticity, the smells and flavours of the cooking of the Villas,
the area which gives its name to the restaurant; here one can try cardoons
from Muel with almonds and ham, migas (breadcrumbs) with eggs and sausage,
cod ajoarriero style, the Aragonese lamb with D.O., cream cheese from Sos
or almond cake. A treat for the senses, to be accompanied by one of the
100 wines in the cellar.
