Parador de Trujillo

Amazingly newly renovated rooms and facilities. Great location and an easy drive into town.

Lovely experience to stay in this beautiful old building. Service was excellent from the reception to the serving staff, everyone was polite and friendly. Very close to the Plaza Mayor so we walked everywhere. Comfortable room with good bed and excellent shower. Really excellent food too.

We had a magnificent room, with a huge bathroom and jacuzzi. We loved the peaceful ambience and the easy walking distance to the Plaza Major. Dinner was served in a central courtyard. Breakfast was mainly a buffet with a few cooked items to order.

We recently spent four nights at this Parador in the charming town of Trujillo. No doubt that it was the best lodging experience of our journey through Madrid and Extremadura. Our room was very large and divided in to a main bedroom and a small TV- watching area fitted with a sofa-bed. All areas had plenty of natural light, and at least two balconies gave us nice views of town. A unique touch was that we were provided with bath robs and sandals for our personal use. My wife in particular enjoyed her rob (Albornoz). The bathroom was large and very well appointed. All around the Parador met and surpassed our expectations. We enjoyed the bar, as well as the restaurant. One evening, we stayed for dinner, and we had a wonderful experience. All our food was very well prepared. The breakfast was also served in the same room, and it was memorable, because the buffet included some of my favorite ingredients; raw salmon and strawberries. Breakfast also included the option of cooked items, such as "Pisto", and fried eggs (CAO) and Bacon. From the buffet items I noticed only one uncommon item, wine, but I did not observe any guests drinking it. In all our near-perfect stay at the Parador, we had only one minor problem. One evening, we were not able to control the temperature in the room, and we requested a portable heater. It took almost an hour to arrive. If you ever include Trujillo in your plans, try to stay at this Parador, most likely you will be very satisfied.

Being an old convent this Parador was similar to others we’ve stayed at. The entrance was very pretty architecturally. The interior rooms were around a central courtyard of what would have been the cloister. Our room was large with high ceilings. In it there was also a sofa bed and a couple chairs. The room doors were low/short, because people in the 16th century weren’t as tall, so a tall person (over 68”) would need to bend down to enter. There was a safe and mini bar. The breakfast buffet was standard Parador with a nice assortment to choose from.
