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.

Casa da Ínsua is located in Penalva do Castelo, a small Portuguese village only 25 kilometres from Visau and 70 kilometres from the Spanish border. This Baroque-style building was built in the second half of the 18th century, restored in 2009, and converted into a Parador in 2015, becoming the first hotel of the Parador Network to be located outside Spain.

Half an hour’s drive from Seville, the Parador de Carmona, an Andalusi palace, stands on the ruins of an impressive 14th c. Moorish castle as a testimony to the region’s past.

 

The building crowns the city and offers a panoramic view from every corner of the Parador, especially from the terrace and swimming pool. Inside, Mudejar patterns are the main feature of the exquisite décor, which creates unique spaces such as the interior patio, the Salón Bermejo, with its tapestries and antiques, and the old refectory, now converted into a restaurant.

The Parador de Ayamonte is located in the last village of the province of Huelva, on the Spanish border with Portugal. This building stands on the ruins of a Roman castle and from its terrace you can enjoy beautiful sunsets over the mouth of the Guadiana. Ayamonte is a beautiful white village with indiano houses, Mudejar churches, squares and a seaport.

This Parador in the old Palace of Piedras Albas can be found in the historical quarter of Ávila, where it forms part of its iconic walls. The interior pays homage to the original setting of the rooms, creating an intimate and welcoming environment.

 

Beautiful decorations, stone floors, and even four-poster canopy beds come together to make a harmonious and light filled setting that combines tradition and modernity, with the latest features such a glazed patio and scalable rooms. The Parador is also surrounded by gardens that are ideal for relaxing and discovering its archaeological collection.

 

The historical character of the building has some effect on access for pedestrians. If you have any mobility issues, please contact the Parador so we can inform you about the best way to access the Parador.

If there’s a Parador that breaks with the historical building trend to become a symbol of modernity, it’s the Parador de Antequera. Located in a garden area of the city, it’s the ideal place to relax and rest, or to celebrate any event. Its huge windows let light flood in from all corners and give you views of a magnificent Andalusian landscape, with warm sunsets over the Antequera plain and rock formations such as the Peña de los Enamorados or Lovers’ Peak.

Located in a truly exceptional cultural and historical setting, the Parador de Almagro occupies the old Convent of Santa Catalina, which dates back to the 17th century and was the city’s first Franciscan convent.

 

Visitors can enjoy the unique setting of the 400-year-old monastery, including its beautiful Mudejar tiling. The building itself is full of surprises, such as its 14 interior patios, galleries and passageways with characteristic blue beams, as well as the traditional tilework with geometric decoration.

The Parador de Albacete, located on the wide plains of La Mancha, is the ideal place to disconnect, relax, play golf and cool off in the swimming pool on hot summer afternoons in La Mancha. The building is an estate with wide corridors, terracotta tiled floors, wooden ceilings and spacious gardens that will remind you of the inns described by Miguel de Cervantes in his most universal book "The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha".

The Parador de Alarcon is located inside a castle with more than 1,300 years of history. It looks out over the river Júcar from the uppermost point of one its gorges, the Pico de los Hidalgos, with privileged views of the area. The castle itself is also regarded as the best preserved one in the province of Cuenca.

 

All the interior rooms have been rebuilt to adapt them to the Parador’s needs, in a combination of modern and classical styles in which textiles give an especially medieval flavour. The walls, stone ceilings and the decoration in the rooms will take you back to the Middle Ages.

The Parador de Cangas de Onís awaits you on the banks of the river Sella, surrounded by the spectacular Picos de Europa. It is located in the Benedictine monastery of San Pedro de Villanueva, one of the oldest in Asturias and closely linked to the lineage of the first kings of Asturias.

 

The Parador, with spectacular rooms of stone and wood decorated to give a warm traditional feel, is the ideal starting point to discover the marvels to be found in the Asturian landscape. The salons and garden next to the river make an ideal setting for unforgettable celebrations, while its location just two kilometres away from Cangas de Onís allows you to enjoy the folklore of this ancient culture.
