At Paradores, we have spent almost 100 years championing a form of tourism that is not only excellent, but also responsible. Today, more than ever, we are convinced that the future of tourism must be sustainable. This means not only protecting our landscapes, our history and our traditions, but also ensuring that future generations can enjoy everything we offer in an ethical, respectful and, above all, responsible way.
Why is sustainability so important to us?
From the very beginning, at Paradores, we have sought to do things differently. Sustainability is not an optional extra, nor a passing trend — it is part of our DNA. We want every guest, whether staying individually or attending a corporate event, to feel that they contribute to something greater: the well-being of people, the protection of the environment, and the local development of the destinations where we operate.
Because yes, we believe that a romantic getaway, a relaxing family stay, or a corporate or private event can all be responsible experiences that respect their surroundings, without compromising quality or comfort.
Tools to make your stay or event more sustainable
We know that more and more people and organisations are asking themselves: how can I enjoy a more sustainable stay or event? This is where our 2025-2028 Sustainability Plan comes into play. But we do not stop at words alone — we offer practical tools to make organising your stay or event at Paradores simple, efficient, and environmentally responsible.
Carbon footprint calculator: a way to measure your impact
One of the most innovative tools we have launched is our carbon footprint calculator. And it's not just for events — you can also use it during your stay at any of our Paradores. How does it work? Simply ACCESS IT HERE, enter a few details, and at the end, you will receive a report showing the impact generated by your visit.
Sustainable Events Guide: beyond corporate events
Although our Sustainable Events Guide is primarily designed for companies and groups, many of its recommendations can also be applied to individual stays. From choosing local products in our restaurant to reducing plastic use during your visit or using resources responsibly — these are all simple actions you can take while enjoying the comfort and charm of our Paradores.
In addition, if you are a lover of cultural and heritage tourism, you will know that each of our Paradores is carefully integrated into its surroundings, enabling tourism that respects historical and artistic heritage. During your stay, you can enjoy everything that makes each destination unique, without causing harm to the environment.
Almost 100 years of history underpin our commitment
Looking back, we can see that our commitment to responsible tourism has remained constant over the years. Sustainability is embedded in our daily operations, in every decision we make — whether in energy management, the conservation of our Paradores, or our support for local communities.
We hold sustainability certifications that endorse all this work, such as the ECOSTARS, label, which recognises Paradores as a benchmark for responsible tourism in Spain. And we do all this because we believe that, beyond offering exceptional service, we also have a responsibility to care for our destinations, our traditions, and our planet.
Your stay is a shared responsibility. Whether you are visiting to enjoy a peaceful break, a family getaway, or a corporate or private event at Paradores we provide everything you need to ensure your experience is memorable, comfortable, and, above all, respectful of the environment. We want your stay not only to be a time of rest for you, but also for the planet.
