Parador de León (San Marcos Monastery) Review
This magnificent parador occupies a restored 16th-century monastery built by King Ferdinand to shelter pilgrims walking the Camino de Santiago; the suites and luxury rooms (all in the original section) are worth the extra cost. Its plateresque facade also fronts a church and museum of archaeology. Hallways and guest rooms have antiques and high-quality reproductions paired with contemporary art. The modern wing has 175 rooms that are fine but standard. The elegant dining room ($$$-$$$$) offers regional fare.
