This is a very olde worlde style hotel set somewhat incongruously on a main road into Jaen. It was very comfortable however and beautifully appointed. Choice at breakfast was pretty good.

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.
The man who ran the place was very helpful and friendly. We were traveling by bicycle and were able to carry them up to the room and keep them inside (no elevator).The location is very good if you want to be in the heart of Jaen. In Spain this often also means that bars and restaurants will be very lively and noisy until at least midnight. We were there on a Saturday night. There are several right next to the hotel.
Very well equipped appartment near everything in Jaen. Complete kitchen but many restaurants cafes and tapas bars nearby so you don’t need to cook! Spacious light and airy. Big comfortable bed with good linen and towels. Communication with Javi was quick and efficient. Parking a huge plus. Fabulous place to spend a couple of days. Dog friendly.
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.
Location is great, just next to Jaen Cathedral, the city centre but quiet street. There are shops nearby and accessible to public transport.
Landlady Noema is so kind and very helpful, the apartment has all up-to-date facilities. Especially I liked the kitchen, there's also spacious balcony with the view of Jaen Cathedral.
We had a very nice stay at Jaen.
The flat is lovely, very modern, very comfortable and very well appointed. It is only a 3mn walk to the cathedral and restaurants/bars.
Car park is only 5 mn walk from flat and available for a small fee.
The San Francisco Market is 5mn walk and has an amazing range of local products.
Hotel: Easy to locate using Google Maps and situated close to the motorway system.
Staff: Were attentive, pleasant and responded quickly to solving problems we encounter in our room.
Room: Large and clean. Contained a Fridge, Safe and Tea making facilities.
Bed: Very comfortable.
Car park: Free and on site.
The flat was just perfect for my family to stay one night in Jaén. It was super clean and cozy, and there was everything we needed. The host, Toni, and his family was welcoming our family upon arrival. (muy amable) Toni was very responsive and easy to communicate.
Muy recomendable.
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.
Ten minute walk to cathedral. Clean hotel. Great buffet breakfast for 11 euros per person. They do have parking, however it was full so we parked across the street in the recommended parking garage for 17.50 euros per night.
Good convenient location
Clean nice rooms with 2 bathrooms, kitchen & dining table.
Fantastic views of Jaen and the Cathedral.
Air conditioning is available.
Very helpful and responsive property owners
Good breakfast, for a fee, 15 euros per person, in the restaurant and in the bar. The location of the hotel is good. The best part is that the hotel offers parking, for a fee.
Very well located in the city centre and easy to reach by car. The hotel has its own parking butif it's full, there is a public parking one block away..
