Hotel Parador de Córdoba

Set on the ruins of the summer palace of Abderramán I, on a hill surrounded by vegetation at the foot of the Córdoba Mountains, the Parador offers stunning views of the legendary city of the Caliphs.

The building is delightfully cool 4ºC less than in the city. This wonderful sensation is due to the swimming pool and surrounding gardens, home to Europe’s first palm trees.

The interior is elegant and bright, with spacious lounges and rooms. The dining room offers Córdoba-style salmorejo, white almond gazpacho and grilled steak in green sauce, amongst other specialities.
