  Re: Parking

  26 May 2026

  This review is specifically to inform those who may be traveling with a car and staying at this establishment. Hopefully it may help others avoid similar experiences to myself and the other reviewers sharing their negative experiences. *Agree with a Google reviewer who stated "Worst experience of our vacations in Andalucia"*As directed by the hotel website instructions, I left my car to the side and walked to the hotel. Upon entering, the lobby was very full - the Front Desk Clerk was deep in conversation with 2 Italian gentlemen at the desk, followed in line by 2 females and myself (+2 in my party). Per the other reviews, the hotel is small, thus making the compact lobby quite crowded. Despite this, the Front Desk Clerk showed no urgency to acknowledge, greet or address the others waiting in the room (while I understand Spanish culture & cadence may not have same urgency as American pace, I feel it would fall under their scope as hospitality professionals to anticipate the situation to be unfolded as well as extend an acknowledgement regarding the wait). It's worth noting that a 2nd clerk was behind the desk going back and forth with errands. About 10 minutes or more of conversation and banter w/the Italians had passed when I 'jumped ahead' by voicing I had a car parked to the side of the street. The 2nd Clerk was directed to accompany me outside to lead me to the parking garage. Upon arriving at the car, 5 policemen were gathered around, in the process of assigning a ticket. Unfortunately, I do not speak Spanish and the 2nd clerk, after a few words with the officers, went back to the hotel leaving me to sheepishly wait alone. The 1st/Front Desk Clerk and a female Clerk came; words and hand gestures exchanged but to no avail. I was assigned an 80 euro ticket and 1) no apology was stated for the traumatic experience from purely following their instructions 2) despite discussion with the Front Desk Staff, I was told that it was a 'personal' matter and no 'fault' of the hotel despite faulty instructions - they refused to acknowledge their role in the matter and 3) in fact, I was instructed by the staff to 'ignore the ticket' since I was a tourist. The last of these compounds the notion that the hotel provides poor, questionable and faulty guidance. I had asked for the courtesy of a discount/dismissal of the garage parking fee and was extended a reduction in the fee. However, I trusted their directions which ultimately played a major role in getting this ticket. Upon returning from the trip, I learned that not paying the fee earlier has led to an administration fee from the car rental company (which, again, I could have avoided by paying the ticket in a timely matter and could have been encouraged to do by informed hospitality professionals). I was trying to respect the culture's pacing and perhaps it was poor judgement on my part to not voice earlier that my car was parked on the side; however, lesson learned & perhaps may be of use to inform others.

  Nice Little Hotel in Great Location.

  26 Apr 2026

  Nice little hotel, close to all the main sights of Cordoba. Room, although quite small, was pleasant, with a comfortable bed. In the room, there was AC, TV, good bathroom. Staff very friendly and helpful. Location was great. Just a few steps away from the Mezquita, but up a small street, so little noise. Recommended.

  Spotless, charming hotel in the city centre

  18 May 2022

  Los omeyas is a traditional style hotel in the heart of the city centre. Just minutes from the main attractions the location is heard to beat. The hotel itself is spotlessly clean with a pretty central courtyard above which are the rooms.The rooms themselves are basic, but they are a generous size and the beds are comfortable. The room is very cool which is a welcome relief from the heat. This is a no frills hotel, so don’t expect any extras but excellent for location and price.We would recommend this hotel to others who are travelling on a budget.

  Mixed impressions

  17 May 2022

  We stayed here for just one night. We were aware there was parking available but couldn’t get hold of anyone by phone for instructions so ended up parking in the Mesquita car park which was fine, however it would be helpful if instructions for their own car park were provided. Staff at check in were quite very matter of fact, verging on unfriendly. A young man corrected us when we were about to use the lift to get to our room on the first floor which can only be accessed by the stair case. However it felt like he shouted at us, actually offering to help with our cases would have been more appropriate. The room was satisfactory, the decor was quite tired, not particularly good bed linen. The two sachets of shower gel provided were inadequate as we both had a shower on arrival as it was so hot, & of course showered the following morning-it felt a little cheap. There were no ‘nice’ touches at all. We didn’t breakfast so can’t comment. However the two slightly more mature gentlemen on the bar and reception the following morning were much more friendly and helpful and moved this from a two star to a three star review.We wouldn’t stay again though.
