I booked D,BnB as a birthday treat for my husband. The location is stunning ,main reception rooms are impressive.Bedroom had a balcony with superb view ,otherwise,purely functional- nothing welcoming.Staff -generally friendly and efficient.Breakfast buffet -huge and freshly cooked omelettes were superb( if rather hurriedly served- I was still eating fruit). Sadly,dinner was a HUGE disappointment .We were seated at 9.00 pm ( very early for Spain) but the restaurant very quickly emptied except for another couple and one lone diner.Staff seemed to consider this the end of the evening and spent our entire time setting up for breakfast all around us.Our starters were OK(MASSIVE) pate- very good,black pudding in rather thick choux pastry- far too much pastry for the delicious filling. My main had clearly been kept warm somewhere was a little burnt around the edges,lukewarm in the middle.My husband’s octopus was ,literally,burnt black and pretty much inedible.When the waitress came to collect our plates and offer dessert,we quietly said as much.She shrugged.We waited to see whether anyone would come to apologise,then gave up and went to leave.Our original waiter and head waiter spoke to us as we left and we repeated how disappointed we’d been Our waiter said sorry. On checkout we’d been charged a supplement for the inedible octopus.Told I should have discussed this with the waiter- I did! Supplement removed’there!Everythingis now good’.NO- absolutely NOT GOOD.

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.

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.

This is a unique hotel that offers some majestic views as it sits high above the city. It is also next to a castle that is worth visiting. Common areas and hallways are very nicely arranged. Our room was a bit cold and there was no way to warm it up as I was told that the A/C unit can only cool. This was a bit unexpected. Given the overall experience though, we had no regrets!
