Castilla Termal Monasterio de Valbuena

Castilla Termal Monasterio de Valbuena Spa draws on the healing properties of its mineral-rich waters, discovered by local monks in the 12th century. Sulphates, sodium-calcium, and hypothermal waters, gently mineralised, are said to support digestion and metabolism, stimulate blood flow, soothe muscles, and promote overall relaxation and wellbeing.

You can choose from a handful of wellness programmes here, including fitness and water-focused stays. Don’t miss the hotel’s signature Capilla de San Pedro ritual – a private experience carried out in a beautifully restored chapel. In soft, atmospheric lighting, you’ll be exfoliated with products from the Castilla Termal range, followed by bi-thermal showers, alternating hot and cold pools, a sauna, Hammam, and stone foot bath.

The spa’s hydrothermal complex includes two mineral-medicinal thermal pools – indoor (heated) and outdoor, along with 16 treatment rooms, Jacuzzis, bubble seats, and a variety of water jets, both above and below the surface. A dedicated relaxation area, fully equipped gym, and poolside terrace round things off. Water temperature is maintained at a toasty 32 to 34°C, too.

There are 79 rooms here, all comfortable and cosy, lots with original stone walls and wooden beams.
