NH Ciudad Real is a four-star hotel belonging to the NH Hotels chain, positioned on Calle Alarcos in the commercial heart of Ciudad Real, the provincial capital of its eponymous province in Castile-La Mancha, Spain.

Ciudad Real's main railway station, with AVE high-speed services to Madrid Atocha in under an hour, is within walking distance of the hotel, making it a practical overnight or weekend destination from the capital. Room categories include Standard Double and Superior Double, with all rooms featuring air conditioning, flat-screen television, free Wi-Fi, blackout curtains, and NH's signature emphasis on high-quality mattresses and bedding. The on-site restaurant serves an international and Spanish menu including regional La Mancha dishes such as pisto manchego (roasted vegetables with tomato) and roast lamb, with buffet breakfast available each morning. A bar operates for coffee, aperitivos, and evening service. Business facilities include meeting and conference rooms catering to the corporate clientele that Ciudad Real's economic profile attracts. On-site parking reduces the complexity of vehicle access to the city center. The hotel is well-placed for daytrip excursions from Ciudad Real: the Tablas de Daimiel national park (20 km), the Calatrava la Nueva castle ruins (35 km), the Don Quijote Route towns of the La Mancha plain, and the Consuegra windmills (65 km) are all accessible by car in under an hour. The city itself has an attractive pedestrianized center with the Gothic Cathedral of Santa María del Prado, the medieval Puerta de Toledo arch, and several historic plazas all within walking distance of the hotel.
