Parador de Santiago - Hostal dos Reis Católicos: One of the Oldest Hotels in the World
The Hostal dos Reis Católicos (Parador de Santiago) is not just a hotel, but a national monument. Founded in the 16th century by the Catholic Monarchs to house pilgrims arriving at the end of the Way of St. James, it is considered one of the oldest operating hotels in the world. Located in the Plaza del Obradoiro, it is the largest Parador in the network and the culmination of the pilgrimage.
Plateresque Architecture and Historical Heritage
The building is a masterpiece of Plateresque style, with a richly carved facade that directly faces the Cathedral of Santiago. Inside, it boasts four splendid interior courtyards (two of which are themed: the orange tree courtyard and the horse courtyard) and a beautiful chapel. Its architecture is an impressive testament to its original function as a royal hospital and refuge for travelers.
Historic Hospitality and Five-Star Luxury
Despite its age, the Hostal is now a luxurious five-star hotel, but it keeps the tradition of hospitality alive by offering a free breakfast and dinner service to a limited number of daily pilgrims who request it, in honor of its historical function. Its 137 rooms are elegantly decorated and retain a classic, regal charm.
Galician Gastronomy of Excellence
The restaurant is renowned for its excellence, offering the best of Galician gastronomy. With dishes based on fresh seafood, beef, and local wines (such as Albariño), guests can enjoy a top-level culinary experience in an intimate and historic setting, savoring the authentic flavors of Galicia.
In the Heart of the Way and Culture
The location is as iconic as possible: on the Plaza del Obradoiro, opposite the Cathedral. This makes it the ultimate starting or finishing point for exploring Santiago de Compostela. It is the perfect choice for those seeking unequaled historical luxury and wishing to fully immerse themselves in the history and culture of the Way of St. James.
