The Parador de Arcos de la Frontera can be found directly on the Plaza de Cabildo in the old city of Arcos, in the province of Cádiz in Andalusia, Spain. This romantic hotel in Spain is encircled by countless historic buildings, such as the Santa Maria church, the castle, and the town hall of Arcos. The Parador de Arcos de la Frontera, the former ‘Casa del Corregidor’ (country judge’s residence), sits on the bank of the Guadalete. The Cádiz hotel is an ideal point from which to visit the so-called “Rutas del Vino” (Andalusian wine route) or the famous “Pueblos Blancos de Andalusia” (white villages of Andalusia).
