We had an electric vehicle and charging was so easy at the Parador (unlike many other areas in Andalucia where we had travelled). We were very grateful and impressed with the service of the reception staff.

King for the night!
How can staying in a palace be bad?!
Stayed here 24 years ago and its still a great place to stay! Loved the balcony and our room. Hotel staff work hard to reserve hotel parking for guests, so that's great. Beautiful view of Jaen from hotel. And there is an ancient castle to tour on location for only 1.5€ each!

Beautiful building, stunning views
Rooms decent size with balcony overlooking mountains.
Bathroom spacious with bath & nice hot shower.
Rooms had aircon/heating but unable to adjust, not a big problem as temperature was OK.
Bar & restaurant stunning, although bar area was cold in the evening.
Food was good, as was service.
Portions good size.

Superb hotel
We had high expectations of the hotel and were certainly not disappointed. All staff were very friendly and attentive. We ate both breakfast, snacks and dined in their restaurant and all food was really good and not expensive. It’s a good walk down into Jaen but all uphill getting back.
I would highly recommend this hotel.
