"Great 1 night stay en-route to Santander and the ferry back to the UK.
Central Palencia is around a 10-15 minute walk away, although there are bars and restaurants nearby.
Chose this hotel as it has it's own parking and is easier to navigate to, compared to more central options.
It was a very hot evening and the air conditioning worked well.
We will use this hotel again on future trips back to the ferry."
"We drive through Spain, Bilbao to Almeria & back twice a year.
Our trip down consists of 1 stop at Manzanares in the Parador.
We now take a more leisurely trip back up through Spain, taking in 3 stops.
We found the Parador, Ducal Palacio Lerma in 2025.
Fiesta weekend!!
We loved it.
Beautiful building, fantastically furnished, staff very attentive.
A special shout out for Davide at Reception for his attention to detail & local knowledge.
Dinner in the atmospheric dining room, superb.
Care with my food requirements 1st class.
This years first visit surpassed 2025.
No Fiesta so very calm.
Davide welcomed us like old friends which is delightful.
Lerma itself is very welcoming.
Plenty of great restaurants, bars.
Beautiful
Totally in Love with Lerma & it’s people."
"This is a wonderful little family run hotel. It has well maintained rustic interiors and a cute internal courtyard with artificial grass, tables and sofas.
It’s pet friendly so makes a perfect stop with our dogs as we drive from southern Spain to the ferries or to France on our way home.
A simple breakfast is available and cooked to order. The hotel has a restaurant across the road and the food was amazing. I had the best entrecôte steak in years. If the restaurant is closed (they have limited opening in the winter) then a smaller menu is available in the restaurant itself.
We will be back."
"Awesome Hotel! I have stayed there several times over the past three years, sometimes I just go in there to get help with something. The staff is the best. You can now control your own air conditioning in the rooms, which is great. Wonderful location to downtown Palencia- 10 minute walk to Calle Mayor and all the good stuff. Highly recommend. Great rooms!"
"La vie de château ! Rien de moins !
Nous y avons passé deux nuits merveilleuses grâce à l’emplacement et le bâtiment unique restauré avec soin. On se sent vraiment Roi et Reine !
Je recommande fortement si vous voulez passer un séjour dans le calme et la sérénité royale !"
"This posada was a perfect stop on our drive to Portugal. It’s just off the main road in a very quiet rural village.
The hotel has a cafe/bar and a restaurant with a few decent choices for a set meal which included three courses, a bottle of wine and water for 25 euros a head.
The room was good with a very comfortable bed and bathroom.
All perfect for a quick overnight spot."
