What is a Parador hotel in Spain?
'Parador' is the name given in Spain to luxury hotels managed by a state-run company and usually located in buildings of historic importance such as fortresses, monasteries and castles; but also new buildings set in nature reserves and areas of outstanding beauty.
Paradores de Turismo de España, the public company managing these luxury hotels, was founded by King Alfonso XIII to promote tourism in Spain. The first parador, Parador de Gredos in Ávila, was opened in 1928 by the King. Today there are 94 paradores from 3 to 5 stars all across Spain, many along the Camino de Santiago.
Parador comes from the Spanish 'parar' which means to stop, halt or stay. The concept behind paradores is to open exceptional historic properties to the public, and use the hotels profits to maintain these beautiful buildings. Most of them also have excellent restaurants offering traditional cuisine at a high standard using local and seasonal produce.
Regardless of the parador's date or style, they all are refurbished to high standard offering all modern comforts, as long as they comply with protected building regulations. Prices at Spanish paradores will vary depending on the room, region and season.
You will find various stunning 'paradores' along the Camino de Santiago:
-Parador de Santiago
The most famous parador on the Camino de Santiago is the 5-star Hostal dos Reis Católicos in the Praza do Obradoiro in Santiago de Compostela, just across from the cathedral.
-Parador de León (French Way)
XVI century Parador de León, the monastery-hospital Hostal de San Marcos, featured in the movie 'The Way' when the main character, played by Martin Sheen, and some of his fellow pilgrims decide to treat themselves to a pampering night before continuing on their journey to Santiago.
-Santo Domingo de la Calzada (French Way)
Santo Domingo de la Calzada, in section 3 of the French Way, has two beautiful paradores: 3-star Santo Domingo Bernardo de Fresneda by the Convent of Saint Francis and the 4-star Parador de Santo Domingo de la Calzada, located in the building of a XII century pilgrims hospital.

Via de la Plata Full Way - Sevilla to Santiago de Compostela | CaminoWays.com
The Via de la Plata (Camino Mozárabe) is by far the longest Camino route (it is 1000 kms long) crossing the whole of Spain from South to North, from Andalucía to Galicia. This Camino route was traditionally used by North African Christians on their way to Santiago de Compostela.
You will start this Camino journey in magnificent Sevilla, with its fascinating mix of architecture styles.
After Sevilla you will soon be walking among olive trees, orange groves and bulls (behind fences, don’t worry!) in Andalucía. As you enter the land of the ‘conquistadores’, you will discover a rarely visited part of Spain; off the beaten track and full of medieval churches and wonderful palaces.
The Romans left an important mark along the Vía de la Plata; you will encounter some of the best preserved Roman sites in Europe: such as the city of Mérida and Caparra. Extremadura is also home to some of the best bird watching in Europe and home of the exquisite Pata Negra ham. You will also visit the elegant UNESCO-listed cities of Salamanca and Zamora before entering the green and remote mountains of Galicia.
After Ourense city, perfect to relax at the famous thermal springs, you will discover THE most beautiful of all the last 100km sections to Santiago de Compostela: across peaceful forests, charming hamlets and lush rolling hills with outstanding views.
