Parador de Pontevedra

Parador de Pontevedra is a 4-star hotel in Pontevedra, housed in a 16th-century stone palace that was once the residence of the Counts of Maceda. Its stately architecture, carved stone staircase and gardens make your stay part of a historic building, with a terrace extending the communal areas outdoors. The rooms retain old-style decor and combine this character with modern amenities.

The hotel offers Standard and Superior Double Rooms, as well as a Junior Suite; they come with air conditioning, a private bathroom, a bathtub, a flat-screen TV and a minibar. The restaurant serves regional cuisine, and the property also has a café and bar. It’s an option for anyone who wants to explore the old town on foot and have shops, tapas bars and restaurants nearby. From Pontevedra, you can also plan a trip to the beaches along the estuary, including Lourido and Cabeceira.
