NH Collection Amistad Córdoba Hotel, Córdoba

Kimkim team favorite · 4.0 (3 reviews) · Luxury
A comfortable luxury option in the historic Jewish Quarter with an outdoor pool and beautiful inner courtyard

Overview

Stay in the heart of the city's Jewish Quarter at NH Collection Amistad Córdoba, around the corner from sites like the Capilla Mudéjar de San Bartolomé mosque and Córdoba Synagogue. The historic hotel does a good job bringing its past to the building and common areas, though the rooms lack authentic character. Still, you can enjoy perks like an outdoor pool, onsite restaurant, patio bar, and indoor parking.

Pros
  • The hotel combines two old houses from the 17th and 18th centuries, preserving its central courtyard patio.
  • Set in the Jewish Quarter, you'll be around the corner from sites like the Capilla Mudéjar de San Bartolomé mosque, Córdoba Synagogue, and Maimónides Square.
  • In just two minutes, you'll reach the Alcázar Andalusí de Córdoba, and the Mezquita-Catedral in just four minutes.
  • The hotel has a beautiful outdoor pool nestled in one of its courtyards, plus a gym, a few lounges, and another historic inner courtyard patio. 
  • Enjoy breakfast in a dining area with a skylight and grab other meals at the onsite restaurant or pub bar.
  • The hotel has an indoor parking garage underground, a definite perk in historic Córdoba.
  • You can check into the hotel at noon (pending availability) and take advantage of "lazy Sundays" with a 3:00 pm checkout. 
Cons
  • Though an exceptionally historic and beautiful building, the rooms feel a little generic and seem to lack character, as do some of the dining areas.

Authenticity

Enjoy staying among the city's history, as the hotel combines two buildings from the 17th and 18th centuries. Though the rooms miss the chance to showcase this history, the common spaces feature beautiful inner courtyards, stone archways, and original woodwork. 

Location

Truly in the heart of Córdoba's Jewish Quarter, you only have to take a few steps to reach sites like the old Synagogue and the beautiful mosque, Capilla Mudéjar de San Bartolomé. Still, within a few minutes, you can also reach the Alcázar Andalusí de Córdoba, Baños del Alcázar Califal, Mezquita-Catedral, and Puente Romano.

Rooms & Bathrooms

The rooms lack the hotel's historic character and ambiance, feeling a little outdated and left behind. Still, they're spacious, bright, and comfortable with all the modern conveniences you could want. All have views of either the hotel's courtyards, the picturesque Maimónides Square, or the historic wall that once separated the Jewish and Christian sections of the city. Families can opt for connecting rooms.

Other Highlights

Enjoy swimming in the beautiful outdoor pool nestled among several room balconies in one of the hotel's courtyards. You can also relax in one of the lounges or the other historic inner courtyard. Breakfast is extensive and varied, served in the onsite restaurant's dining room, and you can grab a drink at the bar in the afternoons and sit on the beautiful patio. Other services include a gym, indoor parking, and flexible check-in and check-out times.

Good hotel but we were unable to adjust the temperature in the room. Great breakfast spread. We did not find the staff very helpful in giving directions as far as where to leave the luggage while we were completing the check in process and we had to carry it up and down several stairs which was not easy given our physical limitations.

When you arrive at this hotel -- the main desk is located at an "inaccessible", "up a flight of stairs" location. You obviously have to first go to the front desk to check in, however there is NO REASON TO BE LUGGING UP YOUR LUGGAGE UP TO THE FRONT DESK. No one tells you this. You do not need to lift heavy luggage to the front desk, because this area will NOT lead you to your room anyway. The reception staff could have easily told us this.

When you arrive at this hotel -- the main desk is located at an "inaccessible", "up a flight of stairs" location.

You obviously have to first go to the front desk to check in, however there is NO REASON TO BE LUGGING UP YOUR LUGGAGE UP TO THE FRONT DESK. No one tells you this. You do not need to lift heavy luggage to the front desk, because this area will NOT lead you to your room anyway. The reception staff could have easily told us this.

We lugged up our luggage up a flight of stairs manually (no Elevator at this level) to the front desk -- only to learn, now you have to carry the luggage back down again to pathway leading you to your Lift/elevator that takes you to your room.

Authenticity & Character
It is clean and maintained well -- by itself it is a hotel
Location
The quaint medieval streets nearby are completely navigable by Google maps - so it is located in a very nice neighborhood.
Staff
All the staff was good -- but the Front Desk staff should have guided us on arrival -- not to lift heavy suitcases up a flight of stairs while checking in.
