As you approach the Parador, you can’t be anything but wowed by the drive up the winding road, the views and the fabulous building, however upon arriving the initial wow started to fade.

Hotel parking was restricted with many bays blocked off (for no apparent reason) so parking was in the general car park for castle visitors making it pot luck for availability.

Reception staff was lacking any customer warmth.

Breakfast, what can I say other than very disappointing, and not free (like some of the blurb and feedback says). We were shown a table and then left to wait 25 mins for any type of service despite staff having seated us, seeing that we were waiting and us getting their attention. When we were served almost 40 mins after arriving (at the time we’d “reserved”) the ham omelette arrived with no ham, no flavour and as will be seen from the photo thrown on to the plate after it (would appear) had been picked up off the counter after missing the plate.

Whilst the meats, cheeses, fruit, danish’s and assorted cakes all looked very appetising and laid out beautifully, there was barely any taste in the few that I tried.

We’re not demanding people and generally go with the flow but sadly the service at breakfast left a bad taste to the end of a fantastic road trip around Gaudix, Cordoba, Sevilla and Jaén staying at some beautiful boutique hotels with quality foods and lovely friendly staff.

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.

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!

After flying into Madrid from JFK and driving 3 1/2 hours to Jaen on our way to Malaga, the hotel was just what the doctor ordered. As is our custom when we fly to Europe, we fight our sleepiness and stay awake during the day in order to avoid jet lag. The key is to sleep well the first night, and we did. We were in a superior room, which was indeed superior. The beds were firm but very comfortable, the room was a good size and very clean, the shower strong and hot, the balcony, the view and peace and quiet all exactly what I hoped would be the case. In the morning, the coffee was very good, we did not eat breakfast but the buffet looked very good. Other than the hotel and adjacent castle we were a little bit disappointed with Jaen, the city, but we were only passing through. It was a perfect hotel for a comfortable short stay. We did eat dinner at the bar on the night we arrived and the food was not particularly good but it was fine for bar food and the ambiance was terrific.

Great views

The hotel is in a lovely setting. Rooms comfy good view from balcony. Well presented interior. Walked down to town 30 mins. Cab down 12 eu, cab up 9eu.
The pool looked great with fab scenery which would have been super to spend time there during the 4 hour afternoon siesta in town. It had been closed since mid September which is that hotel chains policy. This was not shown on Hotels.com and was the main reason we booked the hotel for a relaxing break. Poor.
Though it was not stated there is no coffee making facilities in the room which is a must with that lovely balcony view! First coffee would be at breakfast. There was absolutely no info in the room about restaurant timings, room services etc. Reception weren’t the friendliest so didn’t bother them.
Once again beautiful setting….visit in summer months.

Great views from a historic building

Very friendly staff on check in (they made a big fuss of our 6 month old daughter and called housekeeping while we checked in to have a cot put in our room - all super clean and very helpful). We’ve not stayed at a Parador before and chose this as it was en route to our next stop. The room was good, with a balcony with a great view. The pool looked great although we didn’t have time to try it and the restaurant and hall etc were pretty grand. A lot of the furniture seemed very new and carpets etc look fresh - it is maybe a quirky choice of hotel as Jaén is perhaps a little off the beaten track for some. We were the only family we saw at breakfast, all the other guests seemed more mature although that might be due to the time of year (we stayed outside normal school holiday season). Compared to some of the other choices in the area which all seemed a little hit and miss looking we chose this hotel as we knew it was part of a wider group and that it would be reliable. Would stay again if we drive this way again.

Castle mountain retreat

The view of the mountains from the balcony of the room and the terraces of the hotel were fantastic. Great hiking trails nearby. Highly recommended.

A night in Jaen

Very nice hotel in a very beautiful place. Only complain is that the AC was not working and it was still hot at night. Had a very uncomfortable night.
The half pension is well overpriced compared to the daily menu. Do not take it,

Treat on our journey

On our way to the south coast we decided to have one night at a Parador hotel, and this one was as good as we expected.
The room was OK but it was really meant for two, rather than three. However everything else was just as we expected - the pool, the restaurant, the bar, all excellent.
We visited the castle the morning after, and that was also worth a look.
Overall, a great experience.

Hotel with Beautiful Views

The Parador de Jaen is an old, but beautiful hotel with excellent views of Jaen. We truly enjoyed the old castle feel and would definitely stay here again. The food in the restaurant was also very good.

What a unique place to stay!

I messed up my hotel reservations between two cities so decided to stay somewhere between Córdoba and Granada. Jaén it is! This place is super unique. You cannot beat the location, on top of a hill, overlooking the town and its attached to a castle. We loved sitting out on our balcony, reading and having a beverage. This place is pretty cool!

Our first Parador

Interesting place, lovely views, quite the castle. There were 3 of us traveling together and we all really liked our lunch in the bar; dinner not so much. The rooms are comfortable but beginning to show their age. There is an elevator and parking

During the planning stage of our trip, we wanted to stay at a Parador. Due to some unexpected changes in our itinerary, once we arrived in Spain, we had the chance to add Jaen and to stay at the Parador de Jaen. We splurged a little to get a room with a terrace and view of the mountains in the area. Definitely worth the extra money. Listening to the wind howl in the night added to the authenticity of the experience.

The hotel is built on a hill 800 meters above Jaen, next to the Santa Catalina Castle. While the building itself is more recent, it was built to match the rest of the archaeological site. The fortress is dated as far back as the 8th century and has undergone changes over the conquering centuries, but it is an amazing place to explore. Be sure to walk all the way out to La Cruz - the views are spectacular. While we were there is was windy and raining and cold, but rainbows kept appearing, and it was worth the effort.

The Parador de Jaen also has a fabulous restaurant. The breakfast buffet was well stocked with hot and cold selections and cooked to order eggs. Dinner was a treat. Several traditional offerings from the local area. Everything was well prepared and flavored.

We were very happy to have the chance to see this part of Andalusia - an unexpected add-in.
