Úbeda hotellia

Plussat: Nice breakfast served in a wonderful room. The location - right in the middle of the Old Town - is excellent. The room was nicely decorated and the owner very kind and forthcoming. A charming and well maintained palace!

Miinukset: Room for improvement: 1. Bed comfort - should be easy to enhance. 2. Wi-fi in the room. Probably the old thick walls is the problem, but nowadays it can be resolved.

Plussat: This place is a treat and the owner is very helpful. You step back in time in this 1750 grand house with wonderful furnishing and decor. Short walk to everything. Parking close by. Excellent breakfast.

Plussat: The host, Pepe, treated us like guests in his home. The hotel is his family home, and is truly magnificent. Pepe entertained us with the history of his family and a tour of the house. He was very helpful in telling us about where to eat, what to see, and how to get there. The breakfast was beautifully set out. The freshly squeezed orange juice and soya milk were most appreciated. Our room was spacious and very clean.

Miinukset: We have no complaints. We would gladly recommend this hotel.

Plussat: A very nice old palace, only 4 rooms, and a very nice host!

Miinukset: For me the bed was uncomfortable, the mattress too hard! No WiFi!

Plussat: The property itself is very attractive, full of character. It made the experience in Ubeda more memorable.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The hotel is in an about 500 years old wonderful 2 stories house, lots of family collections and antiques. The room is pretty modernized, comfortable and clean. The excellent breakfast is served in a large beautiful dining room, one can imagine dining like a royalty. There are many restaurants around and very easy walk to all the attractions! One other amazing experience is that we got waken up by thousands of birds chirps！

Miinukset: The showehead is a little broken, so the water spreads all over!

Plussat: Beautiful mid 18th century grand house which has been in the same family since the beginning. A real honour and pleasure to be able to experience multigenerational history made real by current owner who generously shares family stories told through photos and paintings of his ancestors. Thank you!! House is situated in narrow street but good public parking is about 100 metres away. Perfect location to explore historic Ubeda.

Miinukset: Everything was perfect.

Plussat: Ambience, historic property

Miinukset: Humid musty smell

Plussat: The building’s historic architecture, furnishings and the clean spacious rooms. Access to tea and coffee making facilities with small refreshments Amazing breakfast selection Amazing host Good position for exploring Úbeda

Miinukset: Car Parking although discounted, but not the fault of a hotel in an historic building in an amazing place.

Plussat: Wonderful hospitality. We really felt like guests in someone's home.

Plussat: A charming historical hotel, in a good location for seeing the town

Miinukset: The room was cold and we could only get cold air to come out of the room heater although it was set on a high temperature. Neither were any of the radiators on.

Plussat: Charming place, good location, difficult arriving with a car.

Miinukset: Mediocre internet reception, which is a problem for me.

Plussat: This whole experience was stunning. Rosa greeted me like an old friend, gave me her mobile number in case of need at any time, and told me she hoped it would feel like home. The building is gorgeous and furnished with real character. Rooms are just lovely and look out onto leafy courtyards - perfect for peaceful reading in the sun. Lots of nice touches, too, tea/coffee and snacks, a bowl of sweets in the room. This really felt like staying in a palace, a private home, and not a hotel. And that's very special. I was sorry to only be staying one night but this place is reason enough on its own to return for a second visit to Ubeda. Thank you!

Miinukset: If you really want a Corby trouser press and a 24hr reception desk this isn't for you. Otherwise this place is faultless.

Plussat: Fantastic 16th century manor house in the centre of Ubeda. It was beautiful, full of old world charm. Our bedroom was huge with access to a private garden and very large sitting room. We didn't see another guest although we were told one other couple were staying but the were attending a family wedding. Felt like we had stepped back in time. Rosa, who checked us in was charming and prepared us a delicious breakfast each morning. Just loved our stay.

Plussat: Everything

Plussat: Our bedroom was nice and big. The bathroom was on a first level and you need to go down some stairs to reach the bed. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was big. The hotel is well located, close to Ubeda's main places to visit. .

Miinukset: You need to go down some stairs to reach the bed from the bathroom; this is not a problem by itself but if you have mobility problems could affect you. Breakfast was very basic.

Plussat: Great location, super friendly owners.

Miinukset: No dedicated parking. Free street parking nearby in short supply.

Plussat: Wonderful couple- Pedro and Begonia- the ultimate friendly hosts

Plussat: Great location and very friendly owners. If driving to the hotel use a small car as the streets are very narrow.

Plussat: Excellent Hotel. Very friendly staff. Beautifully designed rooms. Perfect location in city center.

Plussat: A small and intimate hotel with historic features and heaps of character. Very helpful staff and the best cold breakfast spread ever.

Miinukset: Early morning traffic noise from the narrow lane the hotel fronts on to. This is not the fault of the hotel.

Plussat: Fantastic location. Friendly and helpful staff and excellent locally-sourced breakfast.

Plussat: Wonderful breakfast, plenty of choice and local products. It was lovely to be able to sample all the local cheeses and meats. The homemade chutney was delicious.

Miinukset: Nothing to dislike.

Plussat: Great location for the monuments and local restaurants. Lovely old house with antiques. Pleasant and friendly reception. Safe nearby parking

Miinukset: Breakfast could have offered healthier options, fruit, yoghurt, museli etc

Plussat: Loistava aamiainen, paikalliset tuotteet, isäntien valmistama. Hotellin restaurointi hienoa arkkitehtuuria. Sisustus onnistunut, kuin Espanja 150 vuotta sitten. Oma huoneemme iso ja kodikas.

Plussat: The fascinating, old fashioned room The superb, quality breakfast in front of old cellar (homemade churros!) The easy access to city Excellent price/quality ration

Miinukset: The fan of the bathroom was a bit too noisy

Plussat: Stylish & old fashioned high quality service. Great location, comfortable bed, good shower - everything you'd want at excellent value. Really enjoyed the breakfast which was centred around artisan embutidos, jamones, quesos, etc. This may not be to everyone's taste or dietary requirement, but I loved it. Already planning our return.

Plussat: This hotel is so beautiful, clean and well managed, I don't think it gets more lovely then this. The breakfast was fit for a queen!

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: The owner was very helpful and considerate. The breakfast was delicious.

Plussat: Perfect welcome, good advice about what to visit and where to eat

Plussat: Fantastic friendly owners, we felt really welcome. Nice garden with swimming pool. Food was great, breakfast and dinner. Rooms are small but comfortable, and with everything you need.

Miinukset: Surroundings are not special, a neighborhood with high fences and dogs.

Plussat: Hospitable, very clean, excellent breakfast. Nice dinner served in the garden,

Plussat: Lovely building and garden. Extremely friendly and helpful host. Excellent breakfast. Quiet location. Sparkly clean.

Miinukset: Hard Pillows and plastic on bed.

Plussat: Recommended. It was a good old fashioned family run hotel. Wonderful hosts and fantastic breakfast. Our dog Molly, was made very welcome.

Plussat: Fantastic breakfast.

Plussat: The friendliness of the staff. The food was excellent some of the best that we have had in Spain. The secure garden for the car and for our dog.

Plussat: Really friendly welcome from Tito who was really helpful. Lovely pool area and a great breakfast. We did not eat at the hotel but wished we had !

Miinukset: It was perfect

Plussat: Really easygoing place. Exactly what we needed. Staff was nice and facilities are good.

Miinukset: -

Plussat: The place is full of character. And peaceful. It is very well situated for sightseeing the lovely renaissance era towns of Baeza and Ubeda. The swimming pool was very clean. The owners are very friendly and helpful. The breakfasts were fantastic, and so was dinner: excellent home cooking. Liked the off road, secure parking too. All in all, an excellent place. Could easily have stayed longer, but had a planned itinerary to get on with. Thanks for a great stay.

Miinukset: Not applicable

Plussat: Great location.

Plussat: Lovely parador in historic building. Old style, but very comfortable. Great breakfast. Perfect location for exploring the gorgeous architecture of Ubeda.

Plussat: Reception staff were particularly friendly, attentive and helpful. Food and service in the dining room was great too. The building itself is wonderful and in a beautiful location.

Miinukset: Rooms are not all of a luxury standard, especially the bathrooms, which are quite dated. The first room we were given was rather dark with little natural light, only had one chair and no room on the table to put any of our personal belongings. We asked for a different room after the first night, and it was much better, bright and spacious but again, the bathroom was dated and there was a leak over the handbasin. Maybe our expectations were too high but we expected a more luxurious feel from a Parador.

Plussat: The building and bedroom

Miinukset: Restaurant environment stuffy, supper menu dull and average breakfast. Reception staff spoke very very limited english. The building itself is magnificant

Plussat: Weve stayed here before, its avery old building beautifully restored our room this time bit small but rooms vary hugely.

Plussat: Size of the room (big) the comfy beds. Good mattresses. Great.

Miinukset: Room facing the road. It’s a bit noisy.

Plussat: Staff, location

Miinukset: Bed was a little soft but otherwise it was all very good. Oh. The lack of carpark facilities means one has to use public parking and pay!

Plussat: Nice charming room with high ceiling Good breakfast Prime Location

Miinukset: Parking is a problem

Plussat: The building is beautiful, the staff is helpful, the rooms are clean, and the decor is simple and elegant.

Miinukset: Breakfast could improve--better fruit, bread, pastries.

Plussat: Location was good for bars and restaurants. Breakfast included in price was okay. Staff friendly and provided information on area when asked. Bath robes a nice touch.

Miinukset: Difficult getting in and out of the bath / shower which would be a problem for less mobile people. Bar/ café only open for breakfast.

Plussat: Excellent location in the heart of the historic town yet with up to date facilities such as the pool Loved the quiet ambience of the property The lounge was an excellent space well furnished and comfortable with added bonus of books, games and music to hand Staff welcoming, informative and helpful Rooms selected were as shown in photos of excellent size and facilities ( had a junior suite & double with spa bath) Well located for restaurants in an evening

Plussat: The location, 5mins from town centre. Quiet modern hotel with small but inviting swimming pool, still available to use in October. Free,safe public parking almost across the road

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: Great location situated in a quiet area of the town but very close to everything. Clean comfortable room. Public parking near to the hotel

Miinukset: Breakfast was quite basic but only 6 Euro’s.

Plussat: We had a book of 3 days but unfortunately we could able to stay only 2. We could not cancel the thrid day reservation, but they invite for the breakfast. Thanks

Plussat: Amid the lovely winding streets of Ubeda, this was a lovely retreat for our 1-night stay in Ubeda. Easy walking to the city center and the breakfast add-on was just right for us to have before we got back on the road. We were able to park our 2 motorcycles for free behind the gates at the hotel entrance. We would definitely stay again.

Plussat: Was very comfortable and well located. The buffet breakfast was very good value.

Miinukset: Was disappointed when we first arrived the receptionist said there were no rooms available. I got the impression we were a hindrance as she was having a conversation with a friend by phone and didn’t want to be disturbed. I then went outside to our car collected my mobile and booked a room at the same hotel online then returned back inside to the reception with the booking reference. The receptionist then made a grovelling apology and said someone had just cancelled so now a room was available, it was a lie I’m sure. Surely not the way to treat customers.

Plussat: Loved the friendly and helpful staff and the wood fire in the lounge. There is free public parking- go past hotel then left. It’s about 500 metres on right! Difficult to get into but secure locked between midnight and 7.30 am. Beautiful town but narrow streets.

Plussat: Excellent location

Miinukset: Very limited facilities at the hotel, no tea/coffee making facilities or even enough water which was the only thing in the mini bar. After a very warm night the hotel could not provide more water even after we offered to pay extra and as it was a Sunday there were no shops open for us to buy water.

Plussat: The location was perfect - many sites were merely steps away! The best water pressure ever in the shower

Miinukset: The air conditioning could not keep up - however it was over 100F so that could be why.

Plussat: The hotel

Miinukset: The city of Ubeda

Plussat: Ubeda has a lovely old town when you find it, they really do maintain the area well. This hotel is amongst the old architecture and fits in beautifully. The receptionist was great and explained how to get in and out at night when they lock the front door, we found a restaurant called Bar El Mano nearby where we possibly had one of the best meals of our life. The breakfast is possibly a bit pastry heavy, but maybe I was just lucky

Miinukset: Unfortunately I have had to mark the hotel down for the bathroom. There was a large oval bath, as this is a large if slightly awkward shape bathroom, so could be fantastic , but the shower screen was very rusty and there were cracks in the tiling , sealant etc all round the bath area. The bedroom needed a little attention around electrical sockets, which was a shame as amazing view over the square and large room.

Plussat: Excellent location and friendly personnel

Miinukset: No Inter in the rooms end though it was advertised in their web site. Also, the international in the reception was very weak and working intermittently The water in the shower was either too hot or too cold, I could never make it work properly

Plussat: I liked the location, friendliness of staff, cleanliness of room.

Miinukset: We weren't offered any cooked breakfast.

Plussat: Historic building . Stall very helpful and good breakfast

Plussat: The building was beautiful, and the room was nicely furnished - classic but modern. Location was perfect, on a quiet plaza but on the end of a long street of bars and restaurants, not far from anything.

Plussat: Beautiful small hotel in former private home that an integral part of this enchantingly preserved and restored small , mostly Renaissance town. Quiet, historic, without too many tourists (in October). Somehow the tasteless touristy intrusions of 21st century have been restrained or kept out completely—unlike so many other towns in Andalucia. Fine breakfast.

Miinukset: Nothing to not like. Furnishings a little worn, but that just adds to the atmosphere. We found street parking, but imagine parking might be challenging in high season.

Plussat: Great little hotel !

Plussat: Meidän ikkunasta näki ja ikkuna oli samalla tasolla auringonotto- ja uima-allastasanteen kanssa. Ikkunoiden edessä joutui näin ollen pitämään koko ajan verhoja eikä ikkunaa voinut pitää auki. Pimeän tultua siellä oli mukava makoilla aurinkotuoleissa ja ihastella tähtitaivasta, romanttista.

Plussat: People are very nice, large room with large bed.

Miinukset: The breakfast was not great, next time I take the same room without breakfast

Plussat: Central location with all important buildings cafes and restaurants in easy walking distance.

Plussat: Nice hotel in a great location. The staff were helpful and the room was comfortable. Good breakfast and a coffee machine.

Plussat: Extraordinary size of the beds was a very delicious feeling , shower was great as well as was the helpful staff

Miinukset: A small table and 2 chairs in a twinbedded room wouöd be desireable.

Plussat: The central position

Miinukset: It was a bit expensive for the type of services and the room.

Plussat: Friendly staff, spacious room, classic hotel with character. Nice to park car in basement parking

Miinukset: Pricing of room changed in the process of looking and booking, for the same room. I don't know if this is the hotel or booking.com, but we did not like it at all!

Plussat: Nice quiet location close to everything.

Miinukset: No internet in the room. Glasses in the toilet were dirty( or not well cleaned)

Plussat: Ideal location. Good swimming pool with an amazing view of the Andalusian plains and sierras. Very charming hotel with stylish decor and patios.

Miinukset: Buffet breakfast was OK but nothing special

Plussat: Exquisite hotel, wonderful views, friendly staff

Plussat: Classic older hotel. Room showed deferred maintenance, but did not affect use. Right in historic area. Roads are narrow and add to historic flavor.

Plussat: The location of the hotel was perfect complete with spectacular far-reaching views across the valley. Set in a quiet position yet only a few minutes stroll from many of the fantastic buildings, cafe's and bars that Ubeda has to offer, it made for the ideal place to stay. We arrived in August so temperatures were in the high 30's but being able to park the car right outside the door meant that getting from car to room with luggage was easy. We simply left the car where it was and did the rest of our exploring on foot. Free parking for the duration, so happy days! The small but perfectly adequate pool was a welcoming site after a day's ambling around and most of the time, it wasn't busy. Talking of cooling off, the water cooler located in the foyer was a nice touch. Great for refilling water bottles before venturing out and In addition, adequate A/C meant that all areas of the hotel - including rooms - remained nice and cool. Although we didn't eat in the hotel, the menu looked tempting and the restaurant itself - with outside tables overlooking those great views - appeared to be busy.

Miinukset: While this was a good hotel in terms of location and value for money, the room although perfectly adequate and clean was a little tired and needed a little updating. There were several cracked tiles in the bathroom for example and one of the light switches was somewhat worse for wear. In addition the pool and terrace area had some gorgeous planting but was sadly a little overgrown and a couple of the poolside tables had also seen better days. All that said, it's nothing that a handyman couldn't 't put right with just a few hours of time invested . Get these finer details right and this hotel has all the makings to be one of the best in the area.

Miinukset: Insufficient parking: We had to park blocks away.

Plussat: It had parking

Miinukset: It needs a good revamp, it’s very tired and the bed linen was very old

Plussat: Easy to find on town outskirts. Able to park by front door although garage parking is available underneath. Bedroom very large and beds comfortable. The inclusive dinner menu was varied and interesting, however should have been much hotter... Plates cold. A drink was included. Breakfast a little uninteresting....cold meats cheese, a few cereals, toast. It would good to have been offered an egg etc.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Great location not far from the historic center. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Great value and very comfortable rooms. Slept really well.

Plussat: Overall it was very good.

Miinukset: They didn't replenish the tea/coffee things.

Plussat: Large spacious clean hotel with comfy rooms a really nice reception cafe bar area. By enlarge very friendly staff.

Miinukset: Evening meal was included in rate but it was an inferior meal. Charged 10e to park car in basement as no room on street. Thought this was a bit mean.

Plussat: Elevated location with fine views over olive groves. Easy to find and only ten minute walk into town and sites. All historical sites were within walking distance. Room warm and comfortable and good shower. Breakfasts fine with lots of choice and friendly service from staff.

Miinukset: Hotel a tad old fashioned with drab decor and furnishings. Needed to park car on nearby roads as parking in hotel car park was €10 per night. WiFi a little intermittent. Main gripe was with reception staff. This was Xmas, there was no festive atmosphere and we were not invited to join any Xmas meal. The half board menu was dire and we ended up going to restaurants in town although we had paid for half board.

Plussat: The room was amazing. Double bed in one area and a further part of the room with a sofa. There was a balcony opposite the bed and a big window opposite the sofa. And there were pillars!

Miinukset: This isn't really what I didn't like, but worth noting. Ubeda is quite big. In the end we drove to the central parking in the Plaza de Andalusia to have a look around. Parking was definitely a bit iffy near the hotel, but we did find somewhere for free. Biggest moan was no chairs on the balcony. We improvised. Once again this is probably our fault, but our satnav took us on a merry dance. There is a street and a plaza, but you need to be in simple Andalucia.
