Castillo de Santa Catalina, s/n
Jaén, 23001, Jaén 
Spain

Exceptional 18th Century Arabic Fortress

The hotel's privileged location on the Cerro de Santa Catalina adds a defensive, fortress-like character to the Jaén landscape. 

With a refreshing swimming pool and exterior stonework that soaks up the sun, the hotel promises to enchant you with a full experience of the Andaluz Renaissance.

The building's majestic appearance continues inside with the impressive 20 metre high arches in the main hall, the dining room with its distinctive Arabic character, and the comfortable bedrooms with their magnificent views.

N.B. Due to alteration work, the swimming pool will open in early July. 

The soft interior decoration of the building is complemented by a varied gastronomic menu.

The best ajo blanco

Try our ajo blanco, an exquisite dish made with garlic, oil, almonds and bread. And do not miss the terrina de perdiz (partridge terrine), the pipirrana (typical salad) and the ciervo al estilo de Baños (venison).
