Monasterio de Boltana Spa, Aragon

Hotel. In the middle of the 17th century monks from the Order of the Decalced settled here amidst the pure air, perfect climate and fertile land – the ideal place for seclusion and meditation. After nearly 70 years of abandonment, the estate was completely restored into the beautiful Monasterio de Boltana Spa. The massive menu of treatments makes this Balinese inspired spa a destination in its own right. But the 154 rooms and 58 villas that sit in the valley between the Argonese Pyrenees and Monte Perdido also provide a retreat for guests looking to explore the wine and cuisine of the Aragon region.

Dining. Just the name, eggs stuffed with truffles, will make your mouth water, but combine this famous dish with the prestige of chef Alfonso Giménez and Marbore Restaurant is born. A modern touch to a classic structure, scores of ostrich eggs hang from the ceiling as lamps illuminating the delectable cuisine on the table. And just below the restaurant lies the hotel’s cellar, Salon Somontano, perfectly suitable for private tastings for the family or a business affair.
