Hotels Near Museo del Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos in Cordoba

We had only one night to spend in Córdoba, so I wanted to be near the Mezquita and the old Roman bridge. The Hesperia fit that bill. We reserved a room with view. Unfortunately, trees blocked the view of the bridge from our room, but we still could see across the tree-filled riverbed to the Mezquita and past Córdoba to the mountains beyond. I am glad we requested the view room, despite the trees. I also enjoyed ”people-watching” from our room, as some tour buses dropped people off nearby, and we could watch people walk along the large pedestrian sidewalk opposite the street. We treated ourselves to some drinks at the rooftop bar in the evening, too, and the view from the bar was spectacular! The mojitos the bartender made for us were fresh and delicious as well. I especially enjoyed being able to walk across the Roman bridge to the Mezquita. Even in the rain, someone was playing music on the bridge, and a passerby in front of us started dancing. The next morning, I walked back to the bridge to visit the museum in the tower on our side of the river (which was well worth the small admission fee) and the bridge area was just delightful with music and so many people out enjoying the day. The breakfast we had included was quite good, with multiple stations of foods and beverages, including a peach juice which my daughter and I loved. The room itself was clean and in good shape, with a large window facing the river and town. It originally had 2 twin beds pushed beside each other, but when I sat on mine and leaned against the wall, the bed moved, so I realized it was on wheels and it was easy to move the beds apart from each other, which was nice. A kettle was provided, so we enjoyed some tea as well as some sodas we were able to keep cool in the mini fridge. The tub was pretty deep, so my daughter treated herself to a bath in it. Also, I was surprised to find a nice restaurant in the building next door to the Hesperia. So even though the Hesperia is not on the Mezquita side of the river, we did not have to go far for a nice meal out! All in all, I can recommend this hotel for the good service we received from the front desk workers, the bartender, the housekeepers, and breakfast people, as well as for its convenient location and views.

Comfortable hotel, spacious, modern and clean. One step away from the old city, crossing the road is the old city, and it takes ten minutes to walk to the mosque. You can see the minarets of the mosque in the room. After walking through the narrow alleys of the old city, I returned to the hotel in a comfortable mood. Breakfast is served in addition to regular continental food, with Cordoba specialties and desserts.

Rooms are nice and hotel is nice too. We booked a suite with terrace but were not informed (also not through their web page) that this room is on the second floor. We expected it on the top of the hotel given on the information of the hotel and the floor plans of the hotel. When entering the room, we found out that the terrace is large but inside the building and shady. The only windows are the ones to the terrace. Again not what we expected and thought was advertised online. Also there was extremely loud construction closeby with air hammers going on next to our room / wall. There is also no information available about this online and the hotel staff didn't inform us neither, which is actually not acceptable. We changed to a terrace room. These rooms are very nice but for the price with 19 sqm extremely small. One person must wait, when the other walks around the bed as you cannot bypass eachother. We liked the terrace a lot but we think that they should change the layout of this room for a better use. The toilet and especially the shower is oversized compared to the rest. We also don't see why there was a large cupboard placed into this small room. There was no space left for a chair or the luggage. What we also didn't like is the fact that other hotel guests not paying extra for upper floors sat directly on top of this private terraces, which was disturbing the privacy, we paid for. Given the small rooms and that one 'must' spent time on the terrace due to the size of the room, this was a bit annoying as some hotel guests seemed to have even brought their own drinks up there. Somebody also sprinkled water around and on us. The terrace rooms are beautiful but too expensive for what they are. They should amend the layout of these rooms to a better usage. The suite terrace on the second floor was inacceptable, being one of the most expensive room types. The hotel as such is very nice, clean and staff very friendly. We give four star instead of five because of the room issues.

Super clean, quiet and with excellent firm king sized bed in central location in Córdoba for very reasonable price for the night (reserved same day). Walked from station upon arrival, about 20 minutes. Had to ask for robes and slippers, but otherwise, very comfortable and front desk honored request for a quiet room with bathtub so we were at end of hall facing courtyard. Clean bathroom with good water pressure and tub as requested. Didn't use sauna or have breakfast at hotel. Within walking distance of all attractions. Would stay in a Eurostars property again given our experience. Only stayed one night which seemed sufficient in this town.

The hotel is very good. I emphasise the quality-price relationship. I give a key data for us has been fundamental. It is sticked to the Cordoba University rectorate, where there is a cafeteria where the deal is great, and it is breakfast for 2 and it is eaten for 6€ (first, second and afterward). The hotel is not central but the hard core of the city of Cordoba is 10' walk away.

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.

Ottimo personale nella reception, gentili ed efficienti. Siamo vecchi clienti ma lo abbiamo trovato peggiorato .... Camera sigillata x effettuata pulizia ... MA: angoli del bagno con incrostazioni di sudicio, e pavimento pieno di capelli neri e lunghi (io sono bionda). Colazione buona ma stoviglie non ben pulite (igiene?) Hotel non insonorizzato internamente ... dal corridoio schiamazzi e porte sbattute fino a tarda serata.

We stayed at the AC Hotel Cordoba for one night during our stop in Cordoba. The hotel is located close to Cordoba train station and easily accessible by foot within 2-3 minutes. The main historical sites of the city are a good 10-15 minutes away by foot. Check-in was quick and the receptionist also gave us very useful tips in relation to the “Fiesta de los Patios” and furnished us with the necessary maps to explore. Our room was located on the second floor facing the road. I would definitely recommend asking for a room facing the back as we experienced some noise pollution from the traffic as the road can get very busy. The room has a nice contemporary interior and very comfortable bed and a nice clean, modern bathroom. Coffee making facilities in form of Nespresso machine are also in to room. My wife also required an iron, which was quickly delivered by staff upon request. Overall, we enjoyed our short stay at the AC Hotel Cordoba.

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.

The location is a bit far away from tourist attractions, so if you have a car, it is free parking and convenient, but it seems uncomfortable to use public transportation. The facilities are good and the rooms are spacious, so
