Parador Tordesillas
In the historic Castilian city of Tordesillas, a crossroad since Roman times, stands this mansion, in a green, natural landscape. 
A lovely wood of pines and a large, well tended garden surround the Parador of Tordesillas with the tranquil calm and serenity of nature.
The Castilian style dominates both the exterior and the interiors, with valuable antique furniture in the lounges. The tranquillity of the hotel and the spectacular blue of the pool invite one to relax.
Stayed one night en route from the Algarve to the ferry at Santander.On arrival the welcome at reception was first class,the hotel in general was excellent and the room was of the standard that I would expect from a Parador.Very quiet location hence a good nights sleep!
Just to echo the comment above,after having driven for seven hours I was slightly disappointed that the dinning room didnt open until 8.30pm although I did get a good sandwich in the bar to tide me over.Once in the dinning room I enjoyed my meal and the service was prompt and attentive. Although I would point out that this was the last weekend in October and the restaurant was fairly quite.
We stayed one night and everything was excellent, friendly staff, clean and well furnished rooms, beds very comfortable, view over the pine woods at the back of the hotel and secure parking.
We also stayed at Merida for one night and the same could be said of that hotel with the exception that we were unable to get anything to eat in the hotel until 8.30pm and the local restaurants were not open until 9,00pm.
The location was perfect, the rooms were superb, and the staff was more than helpful. Truly an amazing place. Highly recommended to all ages! Thank you for a wonderful stay/vacation.
The hotel was beautiful, the rooms were spacious and cozy. The service was great. Overall, the stay was wonderful!
Good and very quick access from main roads.
Room was large and clean. View was not fantistic but room was very quiet which meant a good night’s sleep after travelling.
As at Zafra, the restaurant was very disappointing. Waiting staff could not cope and were not particularly welcoming or helpful. Other people in restaurant had to shout at waiting staff to get their attention. Food expensive and not special.
