Great Central location. Staff were helpful and friendly
Modern decor. A good breakfast though perhaps a bit pricey. It was good to see they had a range of local olive oils to try at breakfast.

You need to be fit and active to get about the hilly setting of the city.
Obviously traffic is heavy but a good portion of the streets are pedestrianised.
Street beggars and graffiti are common place as in most cities.
History,religion, olive oil and panoramic views are plentiful.
Spanish language skills need to good.

Interesting part of Andalucía often overlooked.
Interesting part of Andalucía often overlooked. It has a cathedral and Arab bath ruins. The town is hilly. There is a castle on a nearby hill, but you will need a taxi to go there. One thing about Jaen that you do not find elsewhere in Andalucía is that impatient drivers lay on their horns. Jaen is very hilly so take your time and rest as needed. The sites and architecture at the top of the city is amazing.

Jaen is worth a visit, a beautiful view from the castle, a cosy old town, good food and friendly people!
The castle has an interesting history, and the Cathedral is a must while exploring the old town! Do not forget to taste the local food - it opens new experiences to you!!
And if you enjoy shopping -all that you need you can find both in a huge mall Ingles and in small cosy local shops! The olive oil is sure the best in Jaen as it is all surrounded by huge fields of olive trees!

The room was terribly hot, a true nightnare, I didn’t sleep at all. The 2 rooms were sold with airco, but they weren’t working. In the morning the reception staff couldn’t care less that I hadn’t slept at all. I felt terrible, nobody was sorry, apologized or could understand the fact that I complained about having bought a room with airco to find that they didn’t put it on.
I have never seen such a bad attutide of reception staff.
I will never go back.

Jaen is a very classy town and at the same time with a young heart.
The views to the mountains that surround the town , the cathedral, the arab baths, the history museum and ,not the last, the many Michelin restaurants are enough reasons to plan a visit.
The hosts Maria and Antonio took great care that we could arrive at the property (in the centre of Jaen with narrow streets like all old towns in Spain), keeping in touch with us during our drive there. The location enabled us to walk around easily to the main attractions. The hosts also gave good recommendations for nearby places to eat out in. The property was equipped with everything including coffee, ample detergent for the washing machine. The hosts provided a surprise with a local delicacy.
The staff were super helpful when my train was scheduled to arrive a little after the regular check-in times - it was a last minute trip and all accommodations with later check-in times were booked, so they allowed me to contact them when I arrived and check me in. The bedroom was spacious and the bed was comfortable. Cute balcony view overlooking a small street. Close walk to lots of food and the historic monuments of Jaen.
Perfectly located for us as we visited Jaén, Baéza and Úbeda on a road trip through Spain. Situated just off the highway, beautifully landscaped with a breathtaking view of the mountains if your room faces south. Easy to find with GPS. Hotel and rooms are modern, beds comfy and shower amazing. Many choices at breakfast buffet. Loved everything about this hotel.
When I booked it, did not realise it was a hostel...not obvious from the info on Booking.com.
It was VERY basic...we had to make up our own beds.
If I had known that, we would have chosen another location.
Considering it was a hostel, it was VERY expensive. I have stayed at hotels in Spain for less money and with MUCH better facilities.
This is a great flat in a perfect location in Jaén. The car parking space is a really useful bonus (it's 100m up the road in a large underground garage). The flat was warm, the main bed comfortable (we didn't try either of the single-bedrooms). The shower worked fine. There is a kitchen and a dining area with table and chairs.
Newly refurbished apartment with car parking included which is a great bonus in Jaen City Centre. Very centrally located, Netflix on tv, WiFi. Great communication from the owners prior to our stay, even included videos of how to drive to the property which was a great help as the streets in the old town are very narrow.
Location was very central and close to the car park (would have preferred direct hotel parking). We could walk everywhere. We liked our room- in fact we had a small 2nd room unexpectedly, and with a balcony. The breakfast was also very good (unexpected) and service pleasant- a nice Ukrainian lady.
Good location for historic centre and cafes. Hotel now has its own indoors parking zone nearby. Lift useful, especially to 8th floor rooftop for fantastic view and outdoor seating. Room comfortable. Good coin coffee machine in lobby.
Loved the traditional apartment with modernised decor in the heart of Jaen. Great facilities, including washing machine and clothes line. Very helpful host with suggestions for food and places to visit. Spacious and quiet apartment.
Exceptional property, located high above the city. We ate our meals at the excellent restaurant. Nice to walk out to the cross, just past the castle located next to the hotel. Walked out at midnight. Great views of the city below.
Well sited hotel close to the sights. The cathedral is close by. Walking distance. Jaen is quite extensive so it is hard to get a central hotel. Good breakfast. The staff were helpful and offered helpful advice.
A wonderful stay in Jaén. The apartment was much bigger than we had thought and it was a gem of a place, recently redone (or built?), it was everything it could be. We were really very satisfied with it.
Superb hotel could not find anything to mark it down. It completely takes your breath away a stunning experience for me and my wife couldn’t recommend this hotel enough
Everything was perfect. We run a hotel in the UK and were really impressed by everything at this accomodation. Very modern. Spotlessly clean, great facilities.
