Paradores of
Spain
- 1.
Aiguablava
Girona
Coves, Pine Trees, and Sea
The excellent location of this Parador of Spain, overlooking the sea surrounded
by pine trees, on the Punta D’es Muts, makes it easy for the traveler to
enjoy the sea and nature. Peaceful walks in gardens that hang over
the cliff and wonderful views over small, almost hidden coves are also
pleasurable activities. The extensive living rooms are an invitation
to Mediterranean peacefulness, and the bedrooms continue to present us
with marvelous panoramic views of the sea.

Medieval Arab Fortress
This 8th century castle, perfectly preserved, retains
the magical aura of Arabic influence. This unique Parador even has
bedrooms that recreate the most romantic legends. It sits upon a
promontory, which looks over the Júcar River, on the boundary of
La Mancha and Levante. Military motifs from the 8th century dominate
the living rooms of this Parador, embedded with stone and Castilian wood.

Albacete
Albacete
A Garden in the Heart of La Mancha
The stamp of Cervantes mostly influences the character of this Parador of
Spain. The calmness of its luxurious green garden, its swimming
pool and its attractive corridor are proof of this. The harmony of
its interior design that fit in with the landscape of La Mancha, offers
much privacy and relaxation in getting away from the daily routine.
This can be achieved in the Sancho Panza and Dulcinea rooms.

Alcañiz
Teruel
Castle of the Order of Calatrava
The hill top called the Cumbre de Cerro Pui-Pinos is the setting
for this 12th-13th century castle-convent. This historical natural
defense of the town provides a splendid view over the Maestrazgo.
Gothic walls, a picturesque tomb, an Aragonese palace and a baroque façade
show its monumental character. The orange shades dominate the inner
rooms, with noble wooden beams and furniture.

Almargo
Ciudad Real
16th Century Franciscan Convent
Galleries, inner courtyards and beautiful gardens hold host to
the many social gatherings at this Former Convent of San Francisco.
The Cervantine atmosphere in the wine cellar-bar, the spacious Boardroom
in the Refectory and an old flavor of the period in the Louis XV Room add
a sense of absolute tranquillity to the inner rooms.
