Hotel Boutique Patio del Posadero

This was our second visit to this small family run boutique hotel, more like an home from home. Everything about the place was perfect again, the room the staff and the food are all as good as it gets . We already want to return next year . Córdoba is a beautiful place too from tiny coble streets to big plazas and good shopping too , there's so much to do there . This hotel sits just outside the main busy centre in a peaceful quiet location but a few minutes walk and your at the bars, restaurants and cafes. Well worth a visit, a big thanks to all the wonderful friendly staff .

Everything about this hotel shouted careful, thoughtful, considered planning and operation. The room we occupied was spacious and well furnished and only moments away from the breakfast/dining room, swimming pool and outside lounging area. The breakfast was quite unlike any other hotel breakfast I have ever had, in as much it was treated like a special occasion and served like an intimate three course meal - it was superb. We had not planned to have dinner, but were persuaded by the proprietor and were delighted by the experience - don't miss having at least one dinner at the hotel - all beautifully prepared and served. The centre of Cordoba is about 15 minutes stroll but beware, the small lanes and alleyways of this old city are confusing until you get your bearings - take a map or use your phone GPS to find your way around. The hotel is situated in a small, quiet dead end lane and has a charming garden entrance when you do find your way home. Elderly folk might find the two short spiral staircases running through the middle of the hotel a little difficult, but saying that I am a fit 83 year old and didn't find them a problem.

This was a nice boutique hotel set around a central courtyard and had a peaceful relaxed vibe but the stay was spoiled by a couple of minor things. We got the ‘romantic room deal’ when we arrived with chocolates, cava and flowers for €80 which we didn’t request. The host did reduce to €40 on checkout as we had the cava but a bit of a shock if on a budget. The host needs to relax a bit. They provided a nice breakfast which he was very proud of with homemade kefir, yoghurt, fruit juice and a platter of meat and cheese. Each course was paraded out whether requested or not and despite protestations we just wanted a simple coffee and toast, it all went to waste and we bought breakfast in town. Morning 2 was a repeat and he finally got the message and brought some scrambled eggs. If he had said what was available and given a choice it would have saved on wasted food. Finally, and not the hosts fault, the previous occupants of the room thought it hilarious to set the tv to turn on full blast every hour from midnight. By the third time at 2am and with the host off site and Spanish tv settings to deal with, we finally managed to turn the timer off. By this time we were exhausted and the day following in the heat was hard work.

Top rated for a reason. A beautiful stay in a lovely hotel. Jose, Lisa and staff couldn’t have been more helpful and kindly provided us with help, advice and recommendations when we required it. Breakfast is fantastic and will keep you going for a lot of the day.

The best service I’ve had in a hotel - very attentive and friendly. Well located for walking to the main areas and lovely and peaceful to return to for a dip in the plunge pool. Parking available a short walk away for a charge. Well worth a visit.

Could it live up to all the hype!! Yes it could. We parked the car in the garage as promised and was met and guided to the hotel as promised. Lovely overnight stay with a relaxing dip in the pool after our welcome drink, wondered into Cordoba for our evening meal and returned about 11.30’and sat on the terrace with gin and lemon from the honesty bar. Had a lovely breakfast before heading off to our final destination in Almerimar. If we are ever passing again we would definitely stop off for the night.
