The Parador de Calahorra is situated in the Valley of Cidacos, on the banks of the river Ebro. It’s an elegant building of reddish hues surrounded by a palm garden. Its comfortable rooms, meticulous decoration, and the cosy warmth of its lounge fireplaces make this accommodation an ideal family destination. There are halls for hosting events and celebrations, a cafeteria, a restaurant, a common lounge and a hotel car park.
It is worth taking a walk through the historic center of Calahorra and its Cathedral, the old Muslim quarter and some of the Roman ruins found there, the church of San Andrés, the Plaza del Raso and the municipal museum which houses the famous effigy, the Dama Calagurritana, or the Carmelite convent with an impressive Christ statue by the Baroque sculptor Gregorio Fernández.
Calahorra is also a wine-growing area. Head out to Aldeanueva del Ebro, a little more than fifteen minutes from the hotel, to visit the first Wine Museum in La Rioja Baja, located in La Ermita de Nuestra Señora del Portal; or explore fantastic wineries where the exquisite wines of La Rioja are produced.
If you are traveling with your family, we recommend the Dinosaur Route. You can see traces of these fascinating prehistoric animals in more than forty sites scattered throughout the region of Calahorra, in nearby towns such as Enciso and Igea. Also, don't miss the “Tierra Rapaz” bird of prey park, located only five kilometers from the city, a perfect excursion for the little ones.

The Parador de Turismo "Marco Fabio Quintiliano" pays homage to the bimillenary Calagurris Nassica Iulia, the Roman name by which Calahorra was known. A walk through its historic centre reveals the 12th-century Romanesque Cathedral, several other churches from different historical periods, and the Episcopal Palace, which holds numerous items such as fine gold ornaments, clothing, sculptures and paintings. There are also several museums, such as those dedicated to Romanisation or to Crops, and the Museum of Easter Floats, as Easter celebrations here have been declared a festival of National Tourist Interest.
Beyond the town centre, there are several other alternatives. The Dinosaur Route, a family favourite, takes visitors to the sites where traces of these prehistoric animals have been found. These are also unique places due to the nature of their surroundings.
Calahorra is near Logroño, the provincial capital and one of the stops on the St. James’ Way. Here we find the Cathedral of Santa María la Redonda, which displays an image attributed to Michelangelo on its ornate façade. The Wine Route through the Rioja Alta or the Romanesque Route, of which there are great examples in the province, is also a must.
Calahorra belongs to the Network of Spanish Jewish Quarters and is famous for its Jornadas Sefardíes festival in September. The area’s cuisine is another significant tourist attraction. Guests can visit the Pepper Fair in October, which marks the pepper harvest and take advantage of the Jornadas de la Cazuelilla in November, a tapas route through the city.
