Palacio de Samaniego
Hotel Type: Hotel
Environment: Wine Country
Number of Rooms: 12
Style: Traditional
Sobriety and architectural elegance seem to sum up this late 17th century palace, each stone and wall suggesting a rich historic and artistic patrimony.
After many years of neglect it was thankfully taken over by Jon Ugalde and Ana Amillano in 1997, who with great effort and dedication have transformed such a historic location into a fine and welcoming lodging.
The imposing main facade is crowned with a shield registering the words “It’s broken but my faith will not change”, in reference to the broken sword that appears on many of Samaniego’s coats of arms. Inside, the visitor’s faith will also be rekindled in the art of hospitality. John and Ana do their utmost to make guests feel at ease and the warm happy colours inside combine well with the modest but still comfortable decoration. Likewise, rooms are simple, tastefully furnished and equipped with all modern comforts.
The excellent location of the beautiful village of Samaniego must also be mentioned, protected as it is by the natural barrier of Sierra de Toloño, one of the factors that make the surrounding countryside so enjoyable at any time of the year.
A final word of note. The excellent in-house restaurant is only open on the weekends.
