1. Make time for yourself
We invite you to discover the most frequently visited Paradores of the year, each with its own magic and charm. Get ready to immerse yourself in places that have left an indelible mark on the hearts of those who have visited us.
Winter is the ideal time to enjoy a cosy and relaxing getaway. During these months, the doors open to destinations that during the rest of the year may be more difficult to reach or too crowded. World Heritage cities, natural landscapes and tranquillity become the perfect setting to unwind. Far from being an obstacle, the cold is the perfect excuse to savour comforting gastronomy: stews, soups and traditional dishes, ideal after a morning stroll through the city or a walk through nature.
Imagine touring Spain in a different way, discovering its most emblematic spots without rushing, without stress, just the gentle sway of the train and the excitement of a new destination at every station. From the birthplace of Cervantes in Alcalá de Henares to the vibrant Cadiz, from the medieval streets of Segovia to the breathtaking views of Cuenca, the Paradors invite you to have a unique experience, accessible and full of magic.
