This is a very cute pension. I loved the decor which included some antiques. It's located a short walk from the Mezquita and Plaza del Potro. My room was spotless and a simple (it was a single) with a nice balcony. I would stay here again. More

Me and my friend, females aged 50 and 30, stayed in room no 2 of Pension Il Portillo in May 2012, for 2 nights. The place is really charming. First, it is located two steps away from the Mezquita and the Alcazar, on Cabezas street. Just reaching the place is like making a trip in the past, since from the... More

Not as cheap as other travellers said and I thought it was very noisy at night, much more than we experienced anywhere else on our trip. Air con on the wall but no controls :/ not sure i'd use it again....would probably pay more... More

A real find. One of the highlights of my trip. I loved their dog too! The only thing is I wouldn't have wanted to stay out too late as... More

This hotel represents everything a budget hotel should be. First of all, it is cheap: we paid €35/night for a double room. Second, the room has no frills (no TV, for example) but is comfortable, very clean, and very quiet. The hotel is in a very tranquil street of Cordoba, which means there is no traffic or noise during the... More

We were very pleased with location (about a 10 minute walk from the Mezquita and major sights and about 20 min walk from the train station) given we paid $50 a night. We stayed in a double room with bathroom ensuite. The facilities were basic but very clean (room was a bit smaller than expected but bathroom was larger than... More

When I enterd this simple, yet lovely place I felt right at home. The room was smaller than usual, but it had a nice bed and bathroom. For under EU30, I could not have asked for more. I would say that thos place is the best value in my entire Spanish experience. Un lugar tranquilo y non caro. More

This is a large and rather lovely traditional Andalusi house. The courtyard has been roofed over, and the well is no longer there. The 'cloister' off the courtyard has been glazed in to give the family more private space. The guest rooms are upstairs on one side of the house. The family - parents and 4 children - live in...
