The Liberal Reformist Party (Spanish: Partido Liberal Reformista, PLR), also referred to as the Romerists (Spanish: Romeristas), was a Spanish political party launched by Francisco Romero Robledo in 1886 from elements of the Conservative Party over his disagreement with Antonio Cánovas del Castillo to hand over power to the Liberal Party, following the Pact of El Pardo. It rejoined the Conservatives following Romero's appointment as Overseas minister in Canova's government in 1891.
Romero reconstituted the party in 1898, lasting until his death on 3 March 1906. The members of his party would end up joining the Conservative Party of Antonio Maura.
