The Hotel Parador de Toledo is a 4-star hotel on the Cerro del Emperador, on the bank of the Tagus opposite the old town. It has an outdoor pool, a terrace and its own restaurant. It is a good fit if you prefer to sleep away from the streets of the centre and see the city from across the river.
Location and getting around
The hotel is at the top of the Cerro del Emperador, about a 5-minute walk from the Mirador del Valle. By distance, Toledo Cathedral is about 15 minutes on foot, and so are Zocodover square and the Alcázar. Toledo station (AVE) is about 25 minutes away on foot.
These times come from the straight-line distance: to reach the centre you have to come down from the hill and cross the Tagus by one of its bridges, so the actual walk may be longer.
Rooms and facilities
According to the hotel, the rooms are spacious, with natural light and décor that borrows from Mudéjar art; some look onto the pool. From the pool and the terrace you can see the cathedral and the old town.
- Outdoor pool with sun loungers.
- Restaurant for lunch and dinner; in summer, according to the hotel, it also serves on the terrace.
- Buffet or continental breakfast, with gluten-free options.
