Lounge at Parador de Ferrol - Spain

The interior decoration displays nautical elements, world maps, and navigational instruments. The main staircase has an ancient lamp taken from a boat and maritime motifs are abundant in the living rooms.

The bedrooms are spacious, displaying colors of ochre and darker shades. Some of the rooms have viewpoints and balconies enabling you to enjoy magnificent views over the port.

The restaurant offers a wide variety of exquisite Galician cooking. Some of the local traditional dishes are:
"Pulpo a la mugardesa" which is octopus with potato dish;
"Rape a la corunesa" a fish dish from nearby La Coruna;
"Sopa ferrolana" being a local seafood soup;
The soup is listed last because the local custom is for soup to be served at the end of the meal. In addition food is usually served warm and only hot if specially requested.
The restaurant has a special menu for those requiring a gluten free diet.

we stayed on the night of 2 Aug 2013 and found all of the staff welcoming and friendly. Good room on a quiet street. This is a pleasantly low key Parador in a beautiful location in a 'very spanish' port town - both deserve more visitors

We arrived on Friday 18th May 2012. The man on reception was'nt very welcoming. The room was lovely and the view interesting. The restaurant was superb and the staff courteous and helpful in delightful contrast to the man on reception. All in all we enjoyed our stay and would come again.

Our arrival in September 2011 was dealt with courteously and efficiently, up to the standard we were to get used to over the following week at 4 other Paradores. Our room was very comfortable, quiet, large, beautifully furnished and with a fabulous bathroom. The view from our room was interesting if not spectacular. The very obliging staff prepared a superb meal late into the evening and were very helpful in guiding us through the menu which was welcome after a long tiring journey. And such a lovely restaurant. We enjoyed our stay, even though it was a short one. The only slight blot was the member of staff who dealt with our departure, who seemed to feel we were a distraction from whatever it was he would prefer to be doing. In fact that was the only blot on all 9 nights we spent at Paradores.

La vista desde nuestra habitacion era muy pacifica y agradable. Las gaviotas gritaban y los barcon mecian en el agua. La habitacion era un poco oscura pero acogedora justamente porque no me encontraba muy bien. El servicio durante la cena no nos gustaba: la camarera nos trataba sin interes y con mucha prisa. El desayuno nos gusto mucho mas. Ferrol no tiene nada que visitar pero el parador es apacible.
