History and nature combine in Vilalba. In this quiet town, located on the ’Way of St. James, is the majestic Torre dos Andrade, where the Parador de Vilalba is located. Six magnificent rooms await you in this Medieval tower, which shares space with the Salón de los Andrade, which decorated with coats of arms and wall paintings, and the new Enxebre restaurant at its base. Next to the imposing tower, linked by a beautiful garden, a stone building in the regional style houses the rest of the rooms, the bar, the banqueting restaurant and the common areas, as well as the gym and the wellness area.

The Parador de Úbeda was the first palace to be converted into a Parador. It was originally built as the residence of the chaplain of the funeral chapel of El Salvador and is located in a central square where it shares space with some of the city's most outstanding monuments. The building’s Renaissance architecture is notable for its façade and splendid central courtyard, which is one of the most beautiful in Úbeda. The large windows on the façade bathe the interior in light; its elegant rooms and majestic halls are fully equipped to hold meetings and events.

The 16th century Franciscan convent of Santa Clara is today the Parador de Trujillo. The extraordinary building is built around a central cloister with Renaissance columns and arches, which connected at one end with an old church with a vaulted ceiling where the dining room has been installed. At the other end is the access to the second courtyard in the complex, which is modern in style. The Parador de Trujillo is an ideal destination for rest and leisure, with cosy spaces inside and a swimming pool outside. Its location, near Caceres, is also a perfect place to organise meetings and events in its elegant rooms.

The Parador de Mérida, one of the first in the network of Paradores, stands on the site of the Roman praetorium, on top of the ruins of the temple dedicated to the Concord of Augustus, inside a 17th c. Baroque monastery founded by the hospitaller order of the Franciscan monks.

 

Located in the heart of the city, the Parador breathes heritage and history. The facilities, which include an outdoor swimming pool, gym, sauna and solarium, merges with historical spaces such as the cloister with Romanesque columns and the main salon, which was the previously chapel and is now an ideal place for any kind of celebration and event.
