LOCATION AND MEANS OF ACCESS
Located just 70 kilometers from Madrid and in the heart of Toledo’s historic centre, the Toledo Convention Centre was designed by the architect and Principe de Asturias award-winner Rafael Moneo to blend perfectly with the city. The Spanish architect introduced a platform, or terrace, into the existing mix of buildings and vegetation on the steep, fortified flanks of Toledo as it rises on a high bluff overlooking the Tagus River.
It has all modern facilities and is five minutes from the historical landmarks of Toledo. More than 4000 rooms in all category hotels are at a walking distance.
