Castilla Termal Monasterio de Valbuena
Castilla Termal Monasterio de Valbuena is located in the Golden Mile of the Ribera del Duero
Castilla Termal Monasterio de Valbuena, in the heart of the Ribera del Duero, is located in
the best-preserved 12th century Cistercian monastery in Europe in the town of San
Bernardo, Valladolid.
This extraordinary luxury spa hotel comprises 79 rooms, combining original features such as exposed stone walls and high arches, complemented by vintage furnishings. They are committed to sustainability throughout the property; the hotel resides in the most beautiful historical building and they have respected the original architecture and are committed to preserving it.
The hotel features its own own organic kitchen garden providing a carefully crafted, high- quality dining experience. Also, the hotel produces its own Ribera wine, Converso, an internationally awarded and limited-production Crianza red wine which can be tasted at The Monks Cellar, the place where it all began almost 900 years ago, when the Cistercian monks reached the area and started the tradition in the Duero valley. An impeccable collection of serious red wines from the region can be tasted in the hotel’s cellar as well.
Don’t miss their new gastronomic gem: CONVERSO Restaurant. Nestled within the Monastery of Santa María de Valbuena, this latest culinary offering draws inspiration from the essence of its surroundings and the region’s rich traditions, transforming them into a unique gastronomic experience.
Under the guidance of Michelin-starred chef Miguel Ángel de la Cruz, renowned for his commitment to sustainability, CONVERSO presents a tasting menu crafted around seasonal and locally sourced ingredients. Its philosophy is rooted in maximising the potential of each ingredient and minimising waste, reflecting a profound respect for the environment. By embracing responsible practices, CONVERSO creates a seamless connection between gastronomy and nature, offering an exquisite and sustainable experience.
As for the Spa area, there are 16 treatment rooms, thermal pools, Jacuzzis, bubble seats and water jets, as well as a heated outdoor pool with seating area for lazy days or after treatment relaxation. Not to be missed in the wellness area: the exquisite Capilla de San Pedro Contrast Circuit, a replica of the original chapel of the monastery’s church, to indulge oneself by getting the best from the healing powers of the natural spring waters.
The hotel is also home to the Edades del Hombre Foundation, which, from its on-site workshop, promotes, restores, and takes care of ancient sacred art. Guests can have exclusive access to this.
