Toledo is an incredibly amazing city, and although the views from Toledo Parador
are exceptional, both by day and by night, the parador itself ought to be more
special than it is to match its surroundings. You get the feeling with
the parador of Toledo that because the city receives so many visitors from all
over the world, it doesn't have to woo its customers as much as other paradors
in lesser known places of Spain do. .jpg) The
River Tajo surrounds the city of Toledo, forming a natural moat around one of
Europe's most beautiful cities.

.jpg) The
city of Toledo is unique in that in the Middle Ages it was home to three different
cultures and religions, Moors, Jews and Christians. Although they didn't live
in harmony to the extend that many historians would have us believe, they did
manage to tolerate eachother and it is fascinating to see three such different
styles of buildings and culture in one place.
You will need at least two
days to do Toledo justice because there is an awful lot to see, so it can get
a bit stressful if you only have one day in which to see it all. Toledo
parador should make some effort to offer its guests something similar to the magic
atmosphere of the city which it overlooks. There is room for improvement in most
areas, notably the restaurant (often overcrowded with hassled staff) and facilities
in general. See Photos
