Parador de Tui

Beautiful N101 out of Arcos, fantastic scenery and more Nerines. Even ok going across the big bridge, easy to turn into South Tui to find the Parador. First impressions, hmm ok. Covered parking for Moto. As you get older you dislike showers over baths. Nice staff, small ground floor room, tiny bar. The stroll along the river is nice, a bit steep and more than the 15 mins they tell you. Lots of bars closed on a Monday, mind. Got to quite like the area and stayed two days. Usual Camino everywhere. There is a Tabac, two bars and Petrol Station up the main road, five min stroll. Excellent sitting on the Veranda of the Parador. You hear a beautiful Church at 16.00 with lovely bells ringing across the valley/river. Striking 4. Of course it's 17.00 in Spain! Loved it. The last evening I decided to have a soak in the bath, good when riding the Motorbike. Won't do that again. Angle of bath and lack of hand rails meant I fell on my side getting out, bruised ribs minimum.

The Paradir is exceptionally lovely, providing traditional Spanish elegance and gracious hospitality in a gorgeous setting along the Mino River overlooking a beautiful fortified town in Portugal and Tui city center of medieval buildings. The setting and hotel are perfect for anyone seeking tranquility, peace and luxury.

This is a wonderful hotel, and I wish we could have stayed another night. Our room was very comfortable, particularly because of the beds. Great mattresses and linens. The A/C was strong, and the shower water pressure was wonderful; the wifi in our room was just so-so. But it was a clean and modern room, and that’s not a given on the Camino. Breakfast buffet was included in our rate, and it had lots of healthy & tasty options. Eggs, bacon and some other items were made to order. The hotel is right on the Camino, about 5 minutes walking distance from Tui’s historic district.

Great staff. Nice and attentive. The hotel is a beautiful historical building (of course) and has nice garden and pool area. What helps a lot is the fact that the hotel has an amazing bike structure ! Amazing!!!!!! The restaurant is quite nice. The only thing is that we were tired and found the city buzz to be some how far away. But is right at the Camino

Comfortable, beautiful hotel which was designed to local castle architecture. Pool was very clean and suitable for swimming which is very refreshing during camino tour. Very nice cafe/snack bar outside with terrace and polite waiter. The most comfortable bad during camino tour. Breakfast exceeded my expectations.
