Stunning top floor apartment with two equally good en-suite bedrooms and a rooftop terrace to die for. Perfect for sundowner drinks and morning coffee. It was refreshing that there was a reception desk manned for most of the day, and the lady who checked us in was truly lovely, smiley and welcoming. We booked this apartment for three of us and the cost compared very well with the two double rooms we might have booked somewhere else, but we got much more space. Great location just off Plaza San Antonio, and very quiet. Whole-heartedly recommend!

This is a suggestion, not a complaint! It would be useful to have a light on the landing when getting back at night so you can see the keypad for the door code!

absolutely lovely building. We stayed in the penthouse with its own sun-drenched terrace. Whole apartment beautifully furnished with en-suite bathrooms, comfortable seating, multi-channel TV and plenty of seats and loungers on the terrace. Situated on Calle Ancha the palacio is within easy walk of the old town attractions such as the botanic gardens, museum, fish market and Caleta beach, so is in a brilliant location. Could easily spend the r= whole time on the terrace, just lazing in the sun.

For anyone lik e me, who likes to shop in the fish market and cook at home some evenings, the lack of serving dishes could be frustrating. We never sussed out how to use the microwave/conventional oven but that hardly mattered as there were no roasting dishes supplied anyway. But apart from that little niggle, we were impressed with the room service, the coffee pods supplied to go with the coffee machine, and the maid service with fresh towels and bed linen every few days. No hesitation in recommending five stars

Beautiful building in the very centre of Cadiz. Plenty of hustle and bustle outside but the apartment was very quiet. Well equipped kitchen and plenty of space for 4 adults. Staff very friendly and helpful. If you are staying more than 2 days it is a good idea to buy the sightseeing bus tour as this is a good introduction to Cadiz and the basic ticket also includes entry to the Cathedral and Tower at no extra cost. You can also purchase the Catamaran ride as part of this ticket (if you fancy a boat trip around the Bay). We only found this out after paying for everything seperately!! D'oh!

Only quibble was that there was no outside space to sit in. Our apartment only faced inwards towards the internal courtyard, so no direct sunlight which was a real shame. It looked like the Hotel was originally linked to the bar/restaurant next door with patio doors but these are now closed (and the restaurant had odd opening times). This meant there was no natural/accessible communal space for guests to use.

The question, "How easy was it to collect the key upon arrival" is a good question. This property asked and asked me (by email) "When will you arrive?" Sometimes it is hard to say an exact time when travelling by car and not acquainted with the roads. When our route was blocked/shut down by the police, we found out why we were asked about our arrival time over several conversations. A beautiful local parade (3 Kings) was shutting down our streets. A direct warning to us would have been helpful INSTEAD of repeated, open questions about arrival time. This cultural difference in addressing a conflict was frustrating to us, and we wished for direct sentences about the road issue to warn us, i.e., not appropriately handled. It did not take away from the lovely location.

Lovely, historic and full of character location. We lost 3 hours of fun there due to a local parade for Epiphany, but it did not make us dislike the hotel. It was an error in judgement not to directly tell us, we feel.

Wonderful apartment, clean, comfortable well appointed, and a gorgeous building in a great position. Our one room apartment was spacious, and we loved the balcony facing the street. Windows double glazed, so little noise inside our apartment. Loved having a washing machine, after 3 weeks in Morocco! Would definitely return.

The electronic keypads instead of keys/door cards were annoying. Very sensitive to touch and we regularly had issues! The young woman on reception could have been a little more welcoming and helpful … but maybe she was having a bad few days while we were there?!

Everything was amazing. The hotel is a converted “casa palacio” that was built in the 1860’s for a noblewoman and was remodeled 7 years ago. It is charming, beautifully decorated, and comfortable. The staff is helpful and pleasant. The location is unbeatable - on a pedestrianized street and walkable to everything. Highly recommend.

I didn’t love the keypad entry, which locks you out for 5 min after 2 missed tries (we got locked out at 11:30 PM midnight and had to wait). But this is a minor detail. The place is excellent.

We really enjoyed our stay here, the building is beatiful and perfectly situated, the apartment was very clean and well equipped. Maria was most kind and welcoming and gave us many suggestions on what to do and see in Cadiz. The restaurant suggestions were also excellent. Amenities are so close and two of the best ice cream shops are within 200 metres on Ancha street. I also really liked the keyless system they have throught the building.

Due to the layout of the building the apartment was rather dark. This is probably a standard measure to keep the heat away but we had to use the electric lights most of the time.

There are just nine rooms in this gem of a hotel. That means no lines of guests trying to get the attention of the staff, no interminable wait for answers to your questions. Because the staff, by necessity, is very lean, everyone of them knows about everything. That's not a minor point; ask any staff member any question and the answer is complete. You will not be told to see another staff member, or that it's not their area of control. Simply put, everyone really does know everything, so questions are dealt with immediately. Recommendations for shows, restaurants, places of interest and even the best walking routes were always great. Room was wonderful and the location could not have been better!

Didn't stay longer.

Communication with the hotel was really easy, we checked in before we got there. There was a reception so we were given the keys by a lovely receptionist who was extremely lovely and helpful. The room was like a studio apartment. Full kitchen inc washing machine/dry that had detergent to use. The bed was extremely comfy and it was nice to have a seating area. There was BBC world news as the only English TV but sometimes you just want some background noise when you come home in the evening. There was also a kettle, which as a none coffee drinker I appreciate. Right in the heart of the old town it had a lovely feel and everything there is to see was only a few mins walk away. The hotel has lots details of things to do and restaurants to visit , which was really helpful (one restaurant was La Candela and the best food we had in 2 weeks in Spain) Cadiz can be very busy with tourist from Seville in the mornings, so it was lovely to spend a few days in this hotel and just lie in and then go out for lunch and by 2pm virtually have the town to yourself and go to visit the cathedral later in the afternoon and have a drink in the square outside in the afternoon sun. I would definitely stay here again, I loved the style of the hotel, staff and relaxed atmosphere of Cadiz.

No parking at this hotel but underground car park within 100 meters (Plaza San Antonio). Pedestrian only street with lots of restaurants and a small grocery store next door. The staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. The cleaning staff in particular went out their way to check that we had everything we needed and assisted with the operation of the combined washer/dryer. The location is excellent. It is a 10 - 15 walk to most of the major attractions in the old city. The puppet museum was a fun 30 minutes but a slightly longer walk.

Nothing.
