Hotel Hospes Palacio del Bailío
Elegant hotel in a historic Roman villa featuring an outdoor pool, sundeck, and indoor spa
Overview
Live Córdoba's Roman past by staying in a villa of the same era, complete with preserved ruins, an inner courtyard, and underground baths. The rooms offer glimpses of the past, too, with hand-painted walls, century-old frescoes, and stone archways. Take a swim in the outdoor pool or opt for the water circuit in the spa. When hungry, enjoy a meal on the restaurant's outdoor terrace.
Pros
Pros
- Set in a historic Roman villa, you can enjoy several common areas, including an outdoor pool, sundeck, lounge, inner courtyard, and onsite restaurant.
- Rooms are huge for such a historic space, all with elements of the past and some with garden views.
- Enjoy dinner at the Arbequina restaurant, which offers outdoor seating and a menu by chef Javi Moreno, who elevates traditional dishes.
- As a Hospes Hotel, you can relax at the Bodyna Spa, though this location features an underground Roman bath with a thermal water circuit, massages, and other body treatments.
- Check out the hotel's very own archeological site with a preserved Roman mosaic floor.
- Though the rooms do decently well in channeling the building's unique history, some of the furnishings feel outdated and out of place in a five-star hotel.
