Parador de Vilalba

We stayed here on the Camino del Norte and it was a much-needed luxurious break from pension and albergues. We opted for the Turkish bath on the evening we arrived (€14) and enjoyed dinner (15% discount for pilgrims, from 20:30) and breakfast (€14 - I think this might have been a discounted pilgrim price, from 07:30). The staff were so lovely and professional. The dinner was delicious (prawn croquettes, beef and ham salad). The breakfast was one of the best we’ve experienced along the Camino del Norte - they had everything imaginable and catered for vegan / vegetarian / dairy free / gluten free. You can order fresh eggs and bacon from the kitchen. I personally love the concept of Parador hotels, re-using nationally important historic buildings, and try to stay in them where our budget allows. Very happy with our stay.

We recently stayed at this beautiful hotel and were very impressed by its charm. The room was spacious, extremely comfortable, and had a lovely view overlooking the old square.

We stayed in the new section of the parador, not in the tower--I'm curious if the rooms are the same. Our room was very clean and comfortable with a view of the square. Others in our party had a street view. Air conditioning was welcomed! There were common spaces on each floor for gathering, and we enjoyed the outdoor and indoor bar areas. The breakfast buffet was very good, as was our dinner. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Parking was always available in the church square next door. It was close to markets, shopping and restaurants.

I was looking forward to a nicer place during my camino and it was ok but not really what I expected from a 4star place. The room was big with a nice view to the small plaza and both, the bedroom and bathroom were very clean.

Location is great. It was quiet. Clean and comfortable large rooms. Staff was great; very polite and very professional. I would return.
