Why stay here?
A palace Parador embedded in Cáceres’s monumental old city, where narrow stone streets and aristocratic houses continue the historic atmosphere beyond the hotel door.
Why it stands out
The setting is completely urban and historic: stay here to feel embedded in the old city rather than overlooking it from outside.
How long to stay
Two nights is ideal for a first visit and creates enough time to enjoy both the monuments and the atmosphere of the historic center.
Best route role
Use Cáceres as one of the two major anchors of an Extremadura journey, paired naturally with Mérida and Trujillo.
Two medieval palaces woven into one Parador
The Parador combines the palace of the Marquises of Torreorgaz with the Ovando Mogollón, Perero y Paredes house, both rooted in the medieval aristocratic fabric of Cáceres.
Rather than standing apart from the city, the property feels like part of the same network of stone façades, courtyards and noble houses that defines the UNESCO-listed historic center.
Inside one of Extremadura’s great old cities
Cáceres works best on foot. The Parador puts you directly inside the historic quarter, making evening walks and early mornings especially rewarding once day visitors have thinned out.
More about the stay
The Parador de Cáceres represents the harmonious union of the palaces of the marquises of Torreorgaz and the so-called Ovando Mogollón, Perero y Paredes House, both dating from the 14th century.
The interior of the building boasts all the elegance, quality and comfort of a historic structure adapted to suit the needs of today's guests, especially the restaurant and outdoor areas, café and guest lounge. This last room is a particularly pleasant spot to meet and chat.
New technologies such as energy-efficient LED light bulbs, high-performance boilers and climate control systems make the Parador de Cáceres an environmentally-conscious building. In short, the renovated Parador de Cáceres will set the standard for tourism and gastronomy in the region as both a tourist location and a venue for celebrations and events.
