Had booked for two nights. Arrived to meet a receptionist who was put out and asked us to leave as there is no one there. On Informing that we had a booking she gave us to keys. Seemed indefferent. Visited the room, the whole complex of apartments is depressing, it's very big and wierd to get to the rooms, which are 2 floors down. The location is far from the city and not convenient, after 10 minutes in the room we decider o stay elsewhere. As I said before, on informing the reception that we were leaving, she seemed indefferent. Poor location, poor staff and weird layout and not reasonably rypiced either. Was booked through Booking. Com through their partner beds online, which should have raised red flags. Give a wide berth.

It is in a quiet area away from the centre, but it is quickly reached in public transport. The rooms were very comfortable and the rooms were very comfortable and the rooms were very comfortable.

The breakfast was good, the hotel was not big, the boss personally prepared to bake the bread and serve it to the guests. The hotel is very tastefully decorated, with a lawn and free parking in the vestibule and a large backyard. The front desk was particularly welcoming, and I haven’t asked how to teach you how to play Córdoba. Although not in the city center, but there are buses available, taxis around six euros ~ overall cost-effective ~

This was a great place to stay barely in the mountains, overlooking the city. Definitely have to be traveling by care though if you are considering this location. The room itself was really pretty, clean, and included everything you would expect in a hotel, along with a great view. We traveled in the winter, so we were unable to take advantage of the pool.

Ein zwar nicht riesiges, aber schönes Zimmer in dem faszinierenden Boutique-Hotel LAS CASAS DE LA JUDERIA in Cordoba. Toll gelegen iom Zentrum, in den engen Gassen des ehemaligen Judenviertels. Viele unterschiedliche Zimmer mit mehreren verspielten und unterschiedlichen Innenhöfen. Stilvoll gestaltete Zimmer. Einziges Manko: nur wenig Beleuchtung in den Zimmern, die Lampen so dezent dass Dämmerlicht resultiert, feine Lämpchen beleuchten dezent die Wandbilder, aber das heisst zum Lesen oder Stadtplanstudieren ist es schwierig. Wir können dieses Hoitel nur empfehlen. Morgenessen nahmen wir in einem nahegelegenen Caffee zu günstigerem Preis. Wegen unserer Anreise per Auto benutztemn wir das Parkhaus ”Parking La Mezquita” um die Ecke (zum Preis von 18 Euro/Tag), dh nur 150 entfernt und bestens erreichbar, auch mit dem Rollkoffer. Das Hotel liegt ganz nah zur Hauptsehenswürdigkeit La Mezquita von Córdoba, bei der die (separat zu bezahlende und zeitlich fixierte) Turmbersteigung einen tollen Blick auf die Stadt gewährt und trotz der etwas anstrend hohen Treppenstufen unbedingt empfehlenswert ist.

For a 4 star hotel this was excellent value for money. Arriving by train we only had a 10 minute walk to get there, yet only 10 minutes walk from the hotel to cafes and shops, Perhaps 25 minutes from the historic centre so no local transport was needed. The room was spacious and quiet, in spite of being by a busy road. The bathroom was a decent size too. The only issue was a rather high and wide shelving to climb into the bath/shower, which could be difficult for a small or unsteady person. On the roof was a good sized and clean pool with plenty of shade. Nice to have something bigger than the postage stamp sized ones we've come across before, so a pleasant surprise. Good choices for breakfast although cafes minutes away were better value for money. The acid test- would we stay there again? Yes, definitely.

Stayed at the Tivoli in Lisbon which was a 5* and fulfilled expectations even though the hotel itself felt dated in the décor, the room, however, was spacious and well-appointed, and the dining room sumptuous with personable service. Arrived at the Palacio del Bailio, a 5* in Córdoba, expecting similar excellence, and was grossly disappointed. The reception personnel was efficient, but rather soulless. Some of the dining room staff did not feel like they should be working in a 5* hotel. They banged plates and dropped cutlery in a rather careless manner, chat loudly to each other, and projected an unsophisticated service style. The spa was marketed a lot more interesting than it actually was. The spa staff was strangely confused about our bookings and took a while to sort timing and treatments out, and the roman bath experience that looked so intriguing on their website turned out to be just 3 pools of differing temperatures and very little else in terms of amenities. Our room, basic level that it is, was fine except the goofy bathroom. It had two showers, one standalone and one attached to the bathtub. Problem is, the standalone shower took up half of the real estate on the toilet side, which means you have to be very thin and very small to get into the toilet stall. We are small folks, and still I banged my knees against the glass partition when I sit down and cracked my forehead when I stand up. Never had I to sit on the toilet on an angle with my legs half out of the stall door, just so I don’t bruise assorted body parts. A new experience never to be repeated. The sinks were also stylish-looking, but extremely impractical. Very little space to put anything, and no way to plug the drain so I don’t accidentally flush my contacts away. The hot water was iffy at times and took a long while to get warm let alone hot. A lot of water wasted just waiting for the hot water to come out. Overall an okay to frustrating stay, certainly not what 5* should be.

Spent 3 nights at this hotel which is rated as 5* - a rating I don’t have any issue with. The building exterior and interior are all architecturally ‘brutal’. All surfaces are manufactured from hard materials (tile, glass, steel) - the exterior is clad in rusted steel. This type of design appeals to me so I quite liked the fact that everything had an industrial, clean cut practical feel. Location wise it sits at the end of a long well maintained park/gardens with orange trees aplenty which stretch from the railway station to the hotel and which is bordered and truncated with main roads. The downside of this is that traffic noise is evident despite the rooms being well glazed etc. The rooms are well appointed and comfortable with jacuzzi bath, two showers, double basins and separate toilet/bidet. Very helpful staff, great facilities including a nice rooftop pool, bar and sunbathing area. Breakfast was really good and well organised and there is a large enclosed courtyard which is partially covered with seating. The hotel is located within a 10 minute stroll from all the main historic attractions and extensive number of restaurants and Tabernas. Have no hesitations in recommending this hotel and would return without doubt.

The hotel has a good location, very close to the mosque and the Roman bridge, and it is convenient to eat and buy gadgets around. The hotel facilities are very good, the roads are narrow, all are all small alleys, it is recommended that you park your car outside the ancient city and enter on foot. When leaving the store, the clerk was unskilled and didn't know that he had prepaid the room rate. The friend who was traveling with me made another payment. After my friend confirmed with me, I contacted the front desk to cancel the payment. Ctrip's service is very good, and the customer service has been helping to deal with it and telling relevant precautions.
