History
The Parador de Cadiz traces its origins to the Hotel Atlantico, which opened in 1929 to a design by architect Ricardo de Churruca y Dotres, a private initiative inaugurated by King Alfonso XIII. The state took over the property in 1931 and it became part of the Paradores network, occupying a prime seafront position at the tip of the Cadiz peninsula.
The original building was demolished around 2009-2010, and a bold new avant-garde building designed by architect Luis Collarte (built by Acciona) opened in 2012. The 87-room contemporary Parador is celebrated as a vanguard oceanfront lookout with wide Atlantic views.
The setting
Seafront tip of the Cadiz peninsula, a 6-minute walk from La Caleta Beach.
