If the lowest class of hotel in Spain is a hostal, then possibly the highest are the Paradors.
There are 81 of these hotels scattered throughout the country. Some are in major cities, others in places of natural beauty or historical interest. Perhaps the most interesting are located in castles, palaces and monasteries. They all offer a high standard of accommodation.
You might imagine that they are expensive and they are. However, the Paradors offer special deals which can make them affordable. For example:-
