Authenticity

Casa Patio del Panadero inhabits a 19th-century building in the historic Old Town of Cádiz. Originally the owner's childhood home, it was transformed into a boutique hotel in 2012. This is a simple, guesthouse-style stay, but it makes a handy and charming base if you want to explore the city on foot and experience the authentic feel of life within the atmospheric Old Town. A real highlight of the property is its traditional Andalusian courtyard, adorned with framed paintings, a vintage piano, and colorful sofas. The helpful bilingual staff and a friendly owner add to the welcoming vibes.

Location

The hotel sits on the corner of two narrow, cobbled streets in the center of Cádiz's historic Old Town, adjacent to the landmark building where the Constitution of Spain was signed in 1812. La Caleta Beach and the port are within a 10-minute stroll, as are key attractions such as Torre Tavira, the Cádiz Museum, and the Cathedral. You can reach the Jerez Airport in about 40 minutes by car (or Seville in 1.5 hours), and the San Severiano train station is a 10-minute drive. There are a limited number of parking spaces on-site, but hotel staff are happy to help you find paid parking nearby.

Rooms & Bathrooms

You'll find 14 air-conditioned rooms across three floors, all opening out onto the inner courtyard atrium (and accessed by stairs and elevator). The decor is homely and simple, if a bit dated, with cool pastel walls, tile floors, and wooden furniture. Most rooms have large windows overlooking an interior patio or the Old Town streets, and some include original Juliet balconies. Double units sleep two, while Studio and Apartment options add sofa beds, dining tables, and kitchenettes. The basic but modern bathrooms have good water pressure and complimentary toiletries, though some are quite compact.

Amenities

This is a small, guesthouse-style property, so beyond its helpful staff and the Andalusian courtyard lounge, you won't find much in the way of amenities or common areas. There's no breakfast served at the hotel, but you'll have the cafés and restaurants of Cádiz's Old Town on your doorstep, and the Studio and Apartment units have kitchenettes with microwaves and fridges. Stays include daily housekeeping, and luggage storage and laundry services are available (the latter for an additional charge). Reception isn't staffed around the clock, so you'll be given a key to enter the hotel after hours. 

Family-Friendliness

Casa Patio del Panadero welcomes children, with those aged three and above charged as adults. Studios and Apartments are the best bet for families, featuring extra sofa beds and cribs available upon request. Family rooms come equipped with games for kids, and the hotel is easily accessible for strollers thanks to its elevators.
