lobby
Large hall with coffered ceilings and medieval style.
exterior
It is a grand renaissance-style castle incorporating a beautiful conserved tower called 'la torre del caracol'(tower of the snail) which was declared to be a national monument. This tower features a marvellously preserved and beautiful hall with its mudejar coffered ceiling and mixture of gothic and renaissance styles.
restaurant
Bacalao "a la tio" (cod), rebojo zamorano (sweet cake), sopa de boda and dos y pingada are among the robust dishes which may be sampled at this parador, featuring all of the taste and tradition of this famous region.
rooms
The two wings which house the bedrooms and dinning-room have been built in the same medieval style. Wrought-iron lamps, striking tapestries and castilian wood and brickwork create an austere and regal ambience inside.
location
The parador 'Fernando II de Leon' as it is called occupies the castle- palace built in the 12th century. It was named to honour Fernando II as the founder of the town.
