Stunning views and unique location. Large rooms with good heating/AC. Friendly and helpful staff, with well kept common areas. Chromecast feature for entertainment was useful. Only issue was no kettle for hot drinks.
Breathtaking tranquility. Balcony view from the room was gorgeous, high above the city. Pool was a plus for some exercise. Room was functional and cozy. Not much to do other than dining room and walk to the castle. You need a car or taxi to go up the steep hill to the Parador.
this is a luxurious parador in an absolutely stunning setting attached to a castle on a craggy mountain over Jaen. still cannot get over the views from anywhere within the hotel. Sunset to dinner on Terrace a fitting end to the day. You should consider it essential to stay here if you visit Eastern Andalucia.
One night stay on our way south and what a beautiful and interesting stay. The castle was impressive and our room in the hotel was gorgeous with a great view. This is probably the best hotel we have ever stayed in!
Beautiful property with an amazing restaurant. Pool was just ok and the lower level rooms have air blowing but not really air conditioning. We would go back though!
Beautiful site with Mountain View’s that are extraordinary!!!! Marvelous interior spaces that make one feel like royalty!!!!! Responsive staff and nice breakfast.
This castle Parador is very special. Beautiful location, amazing views, comfortable rooms, and lovely common spaces. It was a perfect respite after several days of exploring Sevilla ans Granada. Highly recommend.
What an amazing building! First came here in 1984 and it’s just as awesome. Very nice dinner as well.

Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
The hotel setting is fantastic, with beautiful view overlooking the city of Jaen. This was our second stay at this hotel, the first was fantastic, but this stay was disappointing.
The service was average, slow and not very friendly. The bar tender did not know how to prepare basic mixed drinks. The breakfast was fine with some decent options and ala carte menu for hot dishes, but the service was very slow.
The room was fine, comfortable and clean. But the toilet was not working during our stay and they could not fix it and had no other room for us as the hotel was full. We had to use the restaurent toilet. Not acceptable considering this was a premium hotel.
Overall disappointed in our stay.
