This monastery was built between the XII and XVIII centuries (although it is believed that its origin dates back to the VI century) is one of the most valued Paradores in Spain and is located on one of the hillside of the Sil Canyon in the middle of nature. It was one of the most important monastic ensembles in Galicia.

It has 77 rooms (all different), lounges, terraces, spa, cafeteria and restaurant. In addition, from the Parador itself some hiking trails leave along the slopes of the Canyon.

Parador de Monforte (San Vicente do Pino Monastery)

Located on top of a hill in the center of Monforte de Lemos, we find this monastery dating from the IX, although the current building was built in the XVI century. It is part of the monumental ensemble of San Vicente del Pino together with the Palace of the Counts of Lemos (Condes de Lemos) and the Tower of Homage.

This 4 * hotel is located in a neoclassical building and has a large central stonework cloister, with privileged views of the city of Monforte de Lemos and the plain in which it is located.
