Parador De Pontevedra

16TH CENTURY RENAISSANCE PALACE
This Parador occupies a palace which was formerly the residence of the Counts of Maceda. It rises up in the historical centre of the town and combines regal, noble and stately lines with innumerable references to a rural dream in a setting which invites you to visit numerous coves and beaches. Distinguished, stately and illustrious are three adjectives which define an interior where famous details, antiques and regal style furniture abound, and there are also relaxing views over the garden. The carved stone staircase which leads to very welcoming bedrooms and which accentuates the stateliness and nobility of the Parador stands out. The dining room has an aristocratic appearance, in harmony with the rest of the common areas; mirrors, paintings and candelabras enhance the culinary display, which alternates fish and seafood dishes with excellent meats.

HOW TO GET THERE
The Parador is located in the old quarter of the town, right in the heart of the Rías Baixas. Pontevedra is linked by motorway to the main provincial capitals of Galicia. It is 23 km from Vigo, 55 from Santiago de Compostela and 120 km from A Coruña.
