Paradores & Hotel Holidays in Spain

Find your perfect Hotel getaway

If you like the idea of a Spanish holiday but don't like the idea of commercialised Mediterranean resorts, allow us to introduce you to a very different kind of Spanish destination - a whole new world just waiting to be explored, just a relaxing ferry journey from Britain. Northern Spain could not be more different from the Costas - a magical land still proud of its local traditions with dramatic mountains, lush green countryside, wide open plains and glorious, golden beaches.

Parador hotels in Spain

Paradores are a chain of government-backed hotels created to offer visitors luxury surroundings and a unique ambiance. Some are purpose-built, but many others are former castles, manor houses, monasteries and palaces with a rich and fascinating history attached to them.

All of these hotels have been lovingly restored to their former elegance but with all the modern comforts you could desire on a luxury holiday break. As you would expect, cuisine is of an exceptionally high standard throughout so we have also negotiated half-board rates at these establishments should you wish to enjoy a leisurely dinner at the end of a long day sightseeing. These are places to truly indulge and be pampered.
