Hospes Palacio del Bailio  

In the heart of Córdoba, this 5-star luxury hotel sits steps from Cristo de los Faroles and just a short stroll from San Pablo Church. The Mosque–Cathedral of Córdoba, Palacio de la Merced and Malmuerta Tower are all within easy walking distance.

Fifty-one air-conditioned rooms mix modern comfort with classic touches: memory-foam beds, down comforters, Egyptian cotton sheets, minibars and flat-screen TVs. Bathrooms feature separate tubs and showers with rainfall heads and designer toiletries, and the property offers a full spa with massages, body treatments and facials.

Soak in the outdoor pool or grab a drink at the swim-up bar, then unwind at the spa (extra charges may apply). Reception is 24-hour, concierge services are available, and babysitting can be arranged for a surcharge; parking and some facilities may incur fees or seasonal closures.

A business center and three meeting rooms make hosting easy, with complimentary wired and wireless internet and express check-out. A roundtrip airport shuttle is available for a surcharge.

Dine on-site at the hotel restaurant or order 24-hour room service; relax afterward in the bar/lounge or by the swim-up bar. Buffet breakfasts are served on weekdays from 8:00–11:00 and weekends from 8:00–11:30 for a fee.
