Parador in the San Vicente do Pino monastery and the palace of the Counts of Lemos, at the top of Monforte: rooms around the cloister, outdoor pool and jacuzzi.

The Parador de Monforte occupies the San Vicente do Pino complex, at the top of the hill that dominates the town and the Lemos plain: the Benedictine monastery, the palace of the Counts of Lemos and, attached to them, the medieval keep. It is a four-star hotel. The monastic community dates back to the 9th century, but the building you see was built between 1626 and 1802, and the rooms are arranged around its neoclassical cloister. The common areas are in the palace's former rooms.
Rooms around the cloister
Paradores offers basic, standard and superior doubles, duplex rooms, a junior suite and an adapted room. Turismo de Galicia notes family rooms and a babysitting service, useful if you are travelling with small children. All have air conditioning, heating, wifi, television, minibar and safe. When booking, ask for yours to overlook the cloister.
Pool over the plain, jacuzzi and gym
In season an outdoor pool opens with views of the Lemos plain. There are also a jacuzzi and a gym. There is a lift, a laundry and a terrace with garden. Outdoor parking is free and the garage, paid, has an electric car charger.
For eating you do not need to go out: the De Lemos restaurant serves inland Galician cooking at midday and at night, every day, and the café is open from 11:00 to midnight.
The town on foot, the canyon by car
From the door you walk down to the old quarter and the centre. In the town you have the Colegio de la Antigua, with its two paintings by El Greco, the Ribeira Sacra Wine Centre and, a little further away, the Galicia Railway Museum. The keep, next to the Parador, is temporarily closed according to the tourist office.
For the canyon you need the car: the Ponte do Sil jetty, with the Provincial Council catamaran, is about 20 minutes along the Castro Caldelas road, and Doade, with its wineries, a little further on.
Closed from 3 January to 1 March 2027
The Parador closes from 3 January to 1 March 2027. If you are travelling near those dates, confirm on 982 418 484.
