“A stunning palace hotel in the heart of Córdoba”

We stayed at the H10 Palacio Colomera in Córdoba, set right on Plaza de las Tendillas, and it was wonderful.

We stayed at the H10 Palacio Colomera in Córdoba, set right on Plaza de las Tendillas, and it was wonderful. The hotel is a beautifully restored 1928 palace that once belonged to the Counts of Colomera, and it still has that elegant, palatial feel. The location is amazing and very central. The plaza itself is lively, especially in the evenings, and there’s a little splash pad style fountain that our kids absolutely loved for cooling off. It was extremely hot at the end of June, so that was a hit. The square is also just pretty to be around and there were lots if benches in to sit around. We booked a suite and were upgraded to a spacious duplex suite. It had a clean, functional bathroom, and they had a crib ready along with a little stuffy for the baby, such a thoughtful touch. The sofas converted into twin size beds, so our older child slept without any problem. There was a lovely little private patio overlooking the pool, with a hanging egg chair and a shaded seating area, so cute. The bedroom was spacious too, and they left us plenty of complimentary chocolate, which was a nice extra. Location really is the star. We walked everywhere. The Mezquita is only about ten to fifteen minutes away on foot, and the whole town is incredibly charming. Even in the heat, walking wasn’t bad because the main streets have canopies strung between the buildings for shade. Mornings were a great time to visit the Mezquita, and we also wandered over to the Roman Bridge and explored all around. Breakfast was really nice, with great service and good quality ingredients. We also went up to the rooftop bar, which seems popular with locals too. It’s higher up, so you get a lovely view over the city, a beautiful sunset, and even the moon at night. The drinks were good. We didn’t use the pool, but it’s a cute, cozy one, small but pretty standard for the region. It would have been nice to dip in given the heat if we’d had more time. There was no gym. Getting there was easy. We came by train from Barcelona and grabbed a taxi from the Córdoba station to the hotel, about a fifteen minute ride. You can’t drive right into the square, but taxis pull up on the side street with no problem for drop off and loading bags. My husband later walked back to pick up the rental car near the station, which took about fifteen to twenty minutes on foot. The walk and the taxi take about the same time since the taxi has to loop around, but with a lot of bags, the kids, and the heat, walking wasn’t an option for us. The streets are quite narrow, so hauling large bags through them would have been tough. Honestly, this place is charming and I’d stay here again in a heartbeat if I ever return to Córdoba. Service was great and it was so convenient. It was our first time at a H10 hotel and we were happy with the choice.

A perfectly located hotel in the heart of Cordoba and ideally situated as a base for exploring. We received a warm welcome along with a glass of chilled cava upon check in and the receptionist took time to explain the hotels amenities along with local sights and restaurants. Our room was overlooking the main square and was well appointed with bathrobes, Ritual toiletries, bottles of water and an amenity kit. We enjoyed the pool area on each day of our stay which benefited from a quick ordering facility to have drinks and food delivered to your sun lounger. Whilst this was effective on 2 of the days, disappointingly one order of 2 drinks took over 35 minutes to arrive and then was not fulfilled at all later on in the day. The rooftop bar was another great feature of this hotel, offering fantastic views of the city and a lovely ambience to enjoy a drink in the evening. Again, the service on the first night was perfect but our second visit was again clouded by us having to go to the bar to even ask for a drinks menu, having been overlooked by the numerous staff on duty. Even having done so, it took an exceptionally long time for our order to be taken. Despite the couple of service related setbacks, staff throughout the hotel were friendly and helpful. The breakfast service was of high quality with plenty of hot and cold options, along with sweet pastries and even cava on offer. We'd happily return here and a 5 star rating would have been given had it not been for the weaknesses experienced in service.

I recently stayed here. I have to say it was a very good location to access the city being very central. The checkin was exceptional, with all aspects covered very professionally and even my membership of the H10 loyalty scheme was recognised without me even making not of this on the booking. The only downside was the noise in the morning from the mood music which started very early and cleaners and people prepping the hotel. Seem all a bit unnecessary and slightly insensitive.
