The New Parador Inn of Pittsburgh
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Your hosts, Ed and Razor
- The word parador comes from Spanish meaning "to stop" or "an Inn". The notion of "stopping" at a classic building converted to overnight accommodations dates back to 1926 in Spain. The Marques of Veg-Inclan sought royal approval for the idea of setting up state run paradors as lodgings for nature lovers and hunters around the country. The concept of taking preexisting classic buildings, converting them to overnight accommodations owned and operated by individual proprietors was born. This idea was adopted in Puerto Rico in the 1960’s to encourage travel around the island outside the main cities. The state government offered low cost loans and grants to individual innkeepers to open these hostelries. Over the years, these establishments grew into a unique chain of properties as individual as their owners. Each one a reflection of the owners taste and the local environment.
