Best Hotels in Monforte de Lemos

Monforte de Lemos has one of the best hotel offers in the area and no wonder. It is close to most of the tourist attractions of Ourense and Lugo, which makes it a perfect location to stay overnight without having to drive many hours to reach the viewpoints of the Sil river, the Miño river, the area of the monasteries or the wineries of the Ribeira Sacra.

We know the area since we have been there several times on vacation, so in this post we will tell you which hotels we liked the most.

1. Parador of Monforte de Lemos

We speak from our most recent experience, as we stayed at the parador for three nights very recently and we really loved it. It was like a trip back in time, as the building is set in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and has a central courtyard where you can sit and enjoy the atmosphere while drinking a good local wine.

In addition, the parador's restaurant is one of the best in the area. They have a very good menu that even the inhabitants of Monforte themselves sign up to try. We went with breakfast included and it was amazing, it had been a long time since we had seen fresh orange juice or such a good selection of homemade cakes in a hotel.

The facilities are super complete with gym and a very nice pool with sun loungers and umbrellas. Best of all, you don't need a towel as they provide them at reception. There is also a small jacuzzi, very comforting after a day of long walks. All services are included in the price, although you must book them in advance at reception.

2. Ribeira Sacra Hotel

Another of the best places to stay in Monforte de Lemos is the Ribeira Sacra Hotel. It is located in the center of the city which makes it a perfect option for dining out in the evenings at nearby restaurants. The building maintains a more classic look, typical of the Galician area and is located a few minutes from the Colegio Nuestra Señora de la Vieja, the old town or the tourist office. In addition to this, there is ample public parking nearby, although there is also a paid parking option available.

In the hotel itself they provide you with tourist information and the possibility to book the famous catamaran trips on the Sil or Miño rivers, visits to the wine cellars and many other activities. They usually charge an extra for managing the excursions so we recommend you to book directly with Civitatis. We leave below two of the links to the excursions we use ourselves.

3. Cardinal Hotel

The Cardenal Hotel is located next to the river promenade that crosses Monforte de Lemos. In a very nice area and very close to the city center, a few steps from stores, restaurants and bars. If you choose this hotel you will be right next to most of the tourist attractions, as you cross the river and enter the old part of Monforte.

We recommend that you visit the river walk and take a moment to contemplate the family of ducks that live there. You are sure to find them quickly.

Otherwise, the hotel has all the amenities of a four-star hotel, paid parking for €10/day and a very good buffet breakfast.
