They tend to be family-run businesses and use local, seasonal produce for their food.
Parador: is the name given in Spain to luxury hotels generally located in historic buildings. Parador dos Reis Catolicos in Santiago first opened in 1499 to host pilgrims arriving in the city and has been welcoming Camino pilgrims ever since. It is the most special hotel on the whole Camino route.
