Highlights

  • Set within a beautifully renovated 14th-century convent
  • A few steps away from the Cathedral of Santa Maria, the last remaining Romanesque cathedral in Catalonia
  • Built around a beautiful Renaissance-era cloister
  • Heated indoor pool, sauna and solarium
  • Restaurant specialising in authentic Catalan cuisine

Occupying the premises of a 14th-century convent, this Parador is neighboured by the Cathedral of Santa Maria – the last remaining Romanesque cathedral in Catalonia, and the most impressive landmark in the town of La Seu d’Urgell. Close to the border with Andorra and two natural parks, Cadí-Moixeró and Alt Pirineu, it serves as a wonderful base for venturing into the Spanish Pyrenees. It’s centered around a beautiful Renaissance-era cloister, pairing the building’s original features with smart, contemporary design. Other standout features include a heated indoor pool, a sauna, a solarium and a restaurant serving authentic regional cuisine.

In more detail

Situated in the charming Old Town of La Seu d’Urgell, next to the 12th-century, sandstone Cathedral of Santa Maria, this Parador’s immediate surroundings are delightful – but when staying here, you’ll also want to venture further afield to explore the spectacular mountains that dominate this northern part of Catalonia. Step inside and you’ll get a sense of the building’s original character, particularly in the central cloister, which is flanked by elegant stone arches and flooded with natural light.

Expect comfortable, tastefully furnished rooms which come with air conditioning, free Wi-Fi access, a flat-screen TV and complimentary toiletries. Throughout your stay you’ll also have access to a heated indoor pool, perfect for a refreshing dip after a day of exploring the town and its surrounding nature.

As well as a plentiful buffet breakfast featuring the likes of fresh pastries, bread, cheeses and fruit, the on-site restaurant, Alt Urgell, offers an à la carte menu later on with a focus on Catalan and Pyrenean specialities.
