Hotel
( 957 49 87 50;
www.hhposadadevallinacordoba.com
; Corregidor Luís de la Cerda
83; s/d €50/70; )
In an enviable nook on the quiet side of the Mezquita
(the building actually predates it), this cleverly renovated hotel uses portraits and
period furniture to enhance a plush and modern interior. There are two levels over-
looking a salubrious patio and the rooms make you feel comfortable but in-period
(ie medieval Córdoba).
HOTEL AMISTAD CÓRDOBA €€€
Hotel
( 957 42 03 35;

; Plaza de Maimónides 3; s/d €125;
)
Occupying two 18th-century mansions with original Mudéjar patios, the Amistad is
part of the modern NH chain, with elegant rooms and all the requisite luxury hotel
facilities, including babysitting.
HOSTAL LA FUENTE €
Hotel
( 957 48 78 27;
www.hostallafuente.com
; Calle de San Fernando 51; s/d €35/50;
)
A journeyman hotel, though in Córdoba this means you get an airy patio,
azulejos tiles, exposed brick and interesting architectural details. The rooms are
clean and comfortable and the staff quietly helpful. There's some street noise, but it
all adds to the brew.

When you and the kids just don't want to look at old stones a moment longer, it's time to
head a little way out of town and leave the past behind. Just southwest of Córdoba's city
centre and adjoining the city
