It boasts a large Arabic style restaurant serving a diverse mix of international and local dishes. The beautiful outdoor pool is great for relaxing. There is also a bar on site.

Number of Rooms: 45

offers the typical cuisine of Jaen, which combines Andalucian flavour and colour with the sobriety of La Mancha. Among the typical dishes are 'La Pipirrana' (a special cucumber and tomato salad) and 'espinacas al estilo de Jaen' (a spinach dish). Also worth trying is the famous 'Cena jocosa' of Jaen which is a complete meal, with several dishes.

The halls and extensive rooms of the hotel evoke times of past glory. Armour, grandiose tapestries and ogival arches are accompanied by the gilt work which features in many halls and corridors, revealing a moorish influence.

When the hotel was built the medieval architecture of the national monument nearby, was taken into consideration.
