Nowadays Córdoba is quite an active city. Shows and cultural events are daily programmed throughout the many flourishing spaces the city has to that end. We have gathered here the most relevant sites in the web, so you are at all times informed about what is happening in the city.
This first edition of FLORA brought 8 international floral artists that transformed the Festival’s chosen patios into 8 unrecognizable stunning spaces. Located in some of the most representative buildings of Córdoba, this works have resulted in a delightful little tour through memory, art and heritage. These ephemeral floral installations will be open to the general public from the 20th to the 29th of October.
Peaceful and beautiful.
Very central in Cordoba, peaceful, calm, beautiful room, friendly staff, lovely stay. Its not v obvious and chintzy which some places in Cordoba can be. Next time we will plan ahead and ask for the meditation session too.
"A fantastic renovation"
So cool. Whitewashed rooms with stained concrete floors. Simple modern furnishings. Great rainforest shower with frosted glass doors. Lots of natural light. Interior courtyard with a lounge. Pretty table setting for breakfast - coffee, homemade cake, toast with olive oil, tomato and shaved Iberico ham. Very friendly staff... Highly recommend this beautiful place.
“Un diseño moderno y altamente confortable”
La atención personalizada de los dueños y todo el staff es impecable.
El desayuno es una explosión de sabores.
"Excelente"
Es un hotel muy tranquilo, bien ubicado. El trato excelente y el desayuno, inmejorable. Las habitaciones tienen buen tamaño, con camas cómodas. Todo está muy limpio y mimado, hasta el olor, muy agradable por las flores que decoran el hotel. Muy recomendable.
My Favorite Hotel in Spain, maybe the whole of Europe
Hidden Gem
This hotel was such a special surprise. It was hidden away on a tiny cobblestone street in the quietest part of town. Immaculately clean with wonderful personal hospitality and beautifully decorated. I would stay there again with pleasure. I had a wonderful breakfast on departure day.
Hotel tranquille et moderne.
L'accueil est parfait, la localisation de l'hôtel est idéale car à proximité des activités tout en étant très calme. La décoration des chambres est sobre et moderne. Elles sont spacieuses et lumineuses, le tout organisé autour d'un joli patio.
la perfection.Petit hôtel parfaitement décoré de façon moderne tendance zen. Chambre spacieuse calme grande. Un propriétaire parfait disponible et attentionné , le meilleur petit déjeuner pris dans un hôtel en Espagne. Nous sommes repartis enchantés. Seul bémol , il est très difficile de trouver le même hôtel dans une autre ville, on est déçu après avoir séjourné dans cet endroit.......
“Diseño y atención.”
Un lujo tener un jaccuzzi privado para tí.
Nos recomendaron sitios para cenar estupendos. Gracias a las chicas.
Luxurious hospitality. When we got to Córdoba it was 108ºF and we could not be more miserable. Then we walked into Viento 10 and Gerrardo, the owner, greeted us with refreshing lemonade and a friendly conversation, exactly what we needed. The rest followed suit, with his recommendations for restaurants and the beautiful room and amenities, which included access to a spa.........
"Se respira un ambiente relajado y tranquilo cuando traspasas la puerta del hotel. Excelente hotel para una escapada a Cordoba, detalles cuidados, desayuno y habitación perfectos. Volveremos."
"La atención fue excelente.
El diseño del hotel inmejorable.
La ubicación, sin estar en el centro, era perfecta a la hora de comer, cenar o tomar una copa"
kleines, tolles hotel. Ganz persönlich geführtes Hotel, in einem historischen Gebäude modern interpretiert. Sehr geschmackvoll, sauber und ruhig. Zu erwähnen ist das gesamte Personal, welches bei Empfehlungen für Restaurants und anderen Fragen immer tolle Tipps gegeben haben. Die Zimmer sind sehr unterschiedlich. Wir hatten ein sehr kleines, kuscheliges Zimmer im 1. Stock. Für drei Nächte völlig ausreichend. Bei Temperaturen um 40 Grad haben wir die kleine Dach-Terrasse leider nicht genießen können, sonst ein toller Ort, um mal zu relaxen. Alles in allem ein schöner Aufenthalt. Danke an Carmen , Gerardo und sein Team!
“Lindo hotel cerca a la mezquita. La decoración es muy moderna y minimalista"
"For design and atmosphere lovers"
Viento10 is a perfect place to explore Cordoba. All sightseeings in walking distance. The hotel has a great architecture, rooms around a "patio". Room 7 spacious and stylish. Parking easy and close. Gerardo and his team gave us a warm wellcome and a delicious breakfast.
perfect stay in cordoba. Beautiful quite place in centre of Cordoba with very gentle, even "zen" owner. Design hotel room Excellent "fresh" breakfast Private parking space nearby. All you need for a beautiful stay in Cordoba!
“CARMEN ES EL ALMA DEL HOTEL.”
Sinceramente, nuestra experiencia en el hotel fue fantástica gracias a la impecable atención de Carmen, su encargada de recepción. Un placer haberte conocido!.
“Lovely, relaxing stay”
We only had one night in this hotel unfortunately. Our room was lovely and the shower and bathroom huge.
Cordoba merece un hotel como este. Maravilloso trabajo de rehabilitación para conseguir un espacio único y muy agradable...acogedor...bien climatizado y con espacios higiénicos muy modernos y cómodos. ...buena ubicación y un trato muy simpatico
The true patron Saints of the city are Asciclo and Victoria, both ancient martyrs, some say the first martyrs of the city, of whom no one talks about, and who have their festive day every 17th of November, a day that is commonly forgotten by most citizens of Córdoba and that will only be considered a festive day on Sundays. Furthermore, they have to share the patronage with the Virgin Mary of the Fuensanta (Holy Fountain), a Virgin that appeared in the XVth century and created great devotion. To add further confusion to the mix, this Virgin has her day the 8th of September. All in all, Córdoba has three patron Saints and none of them is San Rafael.
In that case, who is this San Rafael and why did he become so important to the city? We all know the official story of the Archangel: how he fed fish to a starving city, Tobías, his blind father and the gills that miraculously healed his eyes. However, San Rafael in Córdoba is better known for an other miracle happened the 7th of May of the year 1578. Father Roelas, was certain that during a black plague epidemic the Archangel revealed himself to him and said: “I swear on Jesus Christ Crucified that I am Rafael, the Angel that God has chosen to guard this city.” A church was then built in the same place the Archangel revealed himself and the church was named “San Rafael’s Oath”. Back then, revelations where as common as pop singers these days. Needless to say, after the revelation of San Rafael the plague ended in a few days. To honor him the city built statues and named him the non official Saint and guardian of the city. His true tittle is “Custodian Angel of the city”.
But this was not the only time San Rafael appeared before father Roelas, because a while later he again revealed himself to him to point out that certain bones found in the Church of San Pedro were in fact relics. From that day onward those remains were safe-kept in a silver urn in that same temple. How lucky can one man get!
To add even further confusion, we, the citizens of Córdoba, celebrate San Rafael using an outdated Book of Saints and not the current Novus Ordo Missae. Therefore, San Rafael is celebrated the 24th of October in Córdoba and the 29th of September anywhere else. So, this official festive day of the city does not match the current Book of Saints nor is the patron Saint of the city. Pure Córdoba idiosyncrasy!
What can I say, in a city where a quarter of the population is named Rafael or go by the name of Falete, Rafalete, Falillo, Rafaela…, well, there is a lot to celebrate. Also, that day we all gather in our brother-in-law’s country state and we cook a nice Perol: the Perol. A dish that should not be confused with the Paella. It is cooked in a perola, which is a wide pot but deeper that the one used to cook Paella, and comes with a lot of ingredients besides rice: rabbit and pork meat, field beans, artichokes… The Perol is a Córdoba Sunday tradition and needs not to be related to any Saint. Any given weekend in Spring, Autumn even Winter offers a great opportunity to gather friends and family and sit around a nice Perol.
Happy Saint Day to all the Rafaeles and Rafaelas of the World!
