Hotel Las Casas de la Judería, Córdoba
Historic hotel comprising five former noble houses with an outdoor pool, restaurant, bar, and multiple Mudéjar courtyards
Overview
Kimkim's Take

- The hotel interconnects five palace houses into one beautiful property, preserving the architectural heritage and history to create special alcoves and cloisters, including several inner courtyards and patios.
- Relax by the outdoor pool (available year-round), where you can order drinks from the bar or soak in the sunshine and historic vibes.
- Located in the Jewish Quarter, you're a stone's throw from major attractions like the Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos and the Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba.
- Enjoy a few different on-site eateries, including a highly praised breakfast buffet, a coffee bar on the patio, a tapas bar, and the open-to-the-public La Almudaina restaurant.
- Opt for an upgraded room to enjoy amenities like jetted tubs, private terraces, and coffered ceilings; try the Penthouse Catedral for views of La Mezquita's tower.
- On-site parking is a unique perk in the city's historic areas.
- Though the rest of the hotel feels bright and airy, the breakfast area is dark in comparison with no natural light and appears a little outmoded.
Authenticity
Las Casas de la Judería is like a condensed, mini representation of Córdoba itself, seamlessly blending about 2,000 years' worth of history, as it interconnects five different palatial homes once owned by Spanish nobility (27 buildings in total). It layers—and preserves and displays—Roman (first century), Muslim, and Christian influences when they took power in the 13th century, with major Renaissance-related renovations that stuck since they began in 1597. There are Andalusian courtyards and Mudéjar craftsmanship and details in rooms, and you may happen across Roman ruins as you wander the grounds. The hotel also features an open archaeological site on the ground floor.
Location
You'll be in the heart of the city's Jewish Quarter and next door to the Alcázar Andalusí de Córdoba and steps away from Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos, the Royal Stables, and the Caliphate Baths. Down one street is La Mezquita, and down the other is the Córdoba Synagogue, both just 3 minutes on foot. As a perk, you'll be close to some of the other sites that travelers tend to miss, including the Jardines del Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos and Patios Cordobeses, perfect if traveling in May during the Patios de Córdoba festival. 24-hour parking is also available, a boon for the historic area.Rooms & Bathrooms
You'll have your choice of five room categories, all charmingly decorated in Mudéjar style, evident in embossed Cordovan leatherwork, wood-beam ceilings, classical art, and Andalusian tiles. Classic rooms can feel a little spartan in decor and furnishings, so we recommend upgrading to a Deluxe room or opting for a Junior Suite. Better yet, try the Penthouse Catedral for views of La Mezquita or the Junior Suite Exterior for views over the Caliphal Baths. Some have private furnished terraces (like the penthouse options), coffered ceilings, and/or added seating areas. Bathrooms are clean, though you might find them a bit outdated with vintage sinks and striped tiling.Amenities
The outdoor pool is a definite perk, especially in the hot months, though it's open year-round. You'll find several inner courtyards and patios to appreciate, some offering coffee, drinks, and tapas, like on the Mudéjar patio. There's also the Honesty Bar in the lounge, where you can serve yourself a drink and find a spot to enjoy it. A daily breakfast buffet is served in the basement, though the dining area feels a little outdated. Otherwise, grab a meal at the affiliated La Almudaina, an upscale family-run restaurant featuring regional fare, like rabo de toro and salmorejo, that's open to the public. Guests can also request a massage treatment, use the two cardio machines available, and order a drink poolside.Family-Friendliness
With its winding corridors and numerous steps, Las Casas de la Judería's design might pose challenges for families with young children (or those requiring accessibility options). However, a laundry service, a 24-hour babysitting service, and cots are available upon request (one per room).Like what you see?
