Hotel Rural Vado del Duratón

The house

The Vado del Duratón is a four-star rural hotel on calle San Justo y Pastor, in the historic centre of Sepúlveda, next to the Duratón River Gorges Natural Park. The official Castilla y León tourism listing registers it as a historic building, with 21 rooms, one single and twenty doubles, 41 places and two extra beds. The Sepúlveda Tourism listing presents it as a four-star rural hotel at a moderate price. From the door you can walk to the main square, the Park Centre and the start of the Two Rivers Path.

Rooms

The website distinguishes four types. The double has a queen bed or two single beds; the triple, three single beds; and the suite and the quadruple add a hydromassage bath. All have a private bathroom, air conditioning, free wifi, television, hairdryer and safe, and the photos on its website show attic rooms with skylights and wooden floors. The official listing adds individual heating, minibar and telephone in the rooms.

It does not publish fixed prices: they can be checked in its booking engine or on 921 540 813 and [email protected].

Services

According to the official listing, it has a lift, a café-bar, garden or terrace, garage or parking, safekeeping of valuables and accessibility, and it admits dogs. The website devotes a section to function rooms and conventions, although it does not give capacities. Neither the website nor the listing publishes check-in and check-out times or whether breakfast is included: ask when you book, along with the conditions for the dog and the price of parking.

Who it is for

For anyone who wants the town as a base: dining at an asador without taking the car, such as the Asador El Panadero, and setting off early for San Frutos or the canoe put-in. The quadruples and extra beds suit families, and the lift helps if you are travelling with older people.

What is nearby

On foot you have the town of Sepúlveda with its gates and viewpoints, the Park Centre and the Two Rivers Path, a loop of about 5 km. By car, via Villaseca, you reach the path to the hermitage of San Frutos, and the canoe trip covers about 8 km of calm water beneath walls about a hundred metres high.
