Comfortable bad, adequate size of the room and bathroom (walk-in shower is fantastic) 👌.
It is very clean, the room is cleaned on demand by hanging the sign on the outer doorknob; the towels are changed once in two days.
Breakfast (buffette) is very good (always fresh fruits and local extra virgin olive oil which is fantastic). The central position of the hotel is another plus - close to the centro historico, to all cafes, restaurants, shops, museums, bus station...

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.
Set in Jaen City Center, right across the Ibero International Museum, Iberos Jaén offers free WiFi and free luggage storage. The guest house is 1640 feet from Jaen Train Station.

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.
This is an amazingly beautiful old-style hotel with a beautiful stained glass roof. You can also enjoy the swimming pool. Very convenient location, almost everything is within walking distance. The staff is very friendly. The room is cozy, with all the necessary things and equipment. The breakfast is hearty and delicious. I especially like the atmosphere, the spirit of Spain of the last centuries hovers around. Definitely fit for an Infanta ))).
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.
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.
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.
Fantastic apartment, in a really quiet, clean block. Very spacious, excellent location close to the old town. Host was friendly and helpful. The welcoming bottle of cava was much appreciated.
Jaen is a very relaxed town with plenty of quiet places to sit, day or night.
Great location, nice clean hotel, perfect for our stop over in Jaen.
Breakfast is a good selection of meats, cheese, bread, yogurt & fruit
Coffee was very good as were the juices.
Easy check in and we parked directly outside hotel as wasn’t too busy.
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.
Great location at the motorway intersection en route South, without having to go into Jaén itself, stylish & modern hotel with spacious & comfortable room, good value restaurant and great breakfast selection.
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.
An excellent location, the roof terrace with a glass of wine was a perfect end to our evening. The staff were excellent and the parking was right opposite the hotel and good value. Will def book again
This hotel is conveniently located in the shopping district. May restaurants are a short walk. The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
The situation of the hotel was great with fantastic views. The buildings were full of character and historical interest.
The food was excellent and the restaurant staff excellent.
Food in the restaurant was amazing (highly recommend the trout (trucha). The owner was really helpful and gave us great tips about Jaén. The room was large and well equipped.
Well located and clean. Great heating and also good warm and cozy blankets. Really nice hosts and the cutest puppy Átila. If I go back to Jaen, will stay here again.
