About this property

Halfway between Seville and Córdoba, in the Guadalquivir Valley, stands this 15th-century Franciscan monastery transformed into a boutique destination hotel.

Wake up to the scent of orange blossom and a freshly squeezed orange juice; lose yourself among its three columned patios, gardens and organic orchard. Enjoy its restaurant Hortus, under the gastronomic direction of Celia Jiménez, in the Chapter Hall, or savour traditional Córdoba-style tapas on the terrace. Cool off in the large swimming pool surrounded by gardens or host a private event in the wine cellar.

The monastery also features a lounge, the Bishop Salon, where you will find a library, Smart TV, billiards and a workspace with natural light and impressive views that invite contemplation and long, relaxed conversations. Experience the beauty of Andalusia both within the building and beyond its centuries-old walls.

The monastery is pet friendly and well-behaved pets are always welcome. For cycling enthusiasts, the hotel offers a fully equipped garage to store and service bicycles.

A place for those who wish to enjoy the true meaning of the good life, with countless corners designed for rest, inspiration and renewal.

Located 50 minutes from Córdoba and one hour by car from Seville, the hotel is also easily reached by train, with frequent daily connections.

Please contact our concierge service if you wish to arrange a transfer or a personalised experience for solo travellers, couples or groups.
