Enchanting hotel that was evident from the time we drove up to the property and until we departed. Staying in a parador is always a treat and this one added an extra special experience looking out from our balcony and walking on the path through by a centuries old castle. Add to this the wonderful staff who met all of our needs to make this an unforgettable stay. We are looking forward to a return stay in the near future!

this is a luxurious parador in an absolutely stunning setting attached to a castle on a craggy mountain over Jaen. still cannot get over the views from anywhere within the hotel. Sunset to dinner on Terrace a fitting end to the day. You should consider it essential to stay here if you visit Eastern Andalucia.

Breathtaking tranquility. Balcony view from the room was gorgeous, high above the city. Pool was a plus for some exercise. Room was functional and cozy. Not much to do other than dining room and walk to the castle. You need a car or taxi to go up the steep hill to the Parador.
