The Fortress of the Sun is the best place in Lorca to watch the sunrise and sunset, making the reason for its name clear. This modern designer hotel boasts a spa and a terrace from which to relax and admire a truly amazing travel destination. And be sure to visit the synagogue at the foot of the hill where the Parador is located. Book my room at the Parador de Lorca Our first Parador in Portugal is located in an 18th-century manor house. With its own vineyards and stunning romantic gardens, this destination should definitely be on your list of "places to discover in 2016." Book my room at the Parador de Casa da Ínsua
This former monastery is located just a few kilometers from Madrid. This enchanting spot is the perfect place to get away from it all and enjoy fine cuisine in its two culinary spaces, the traditional restaurant and El Bodegón, our seasonal restaurant featuring incredible chickpea stews. Oh, and the wonderful gardens are also a favorite spot for unique weddings. Book my room at the Parador de Chinchón

This hotel is located in the center of León, in a magnificent building next to San Marcos Church (so close that the entrance to the wooden carved choir, a unique jewel, is through the Parador library). A historic hotel, a hotel that is a museum in itself. A hotel you absolutely must see to understand some of the history of Paradores. Book my room at the Parador de León
