Parador De El Ferrol

STATELY MANSION WITH A MARITIME AIR
In the centre of this attractive, seafaring city, the Parador rises up, recreating in its image the essence of a Galician mansion with glazed galleries and a specific marine setting. The decoration displays nautical elements, world maps and navigational instruments in the common rooms and spaces. The main staircase has an ancient lamp from a boat and maritime motifs abound in the living rooms. The bedrooms are spacious and show off ochre and dark shades; some, with viewpoints and balconies, are favoured by magnificent views over the port. The restaurant offers a wide and varied display of the exquisite Galician cooking. Its most representative dishes are "pulpo a la mugardesa" (octopus with potatoes), "rape a la coruñesa" (anglerfish) and "sopa ferrolana" (seafood soup). The typical cake from Ferrol justly opens the dessert menu.
