"Advance communication from David about check-in and parking was first class. Spacious, spotless and modern apartment was fantastic. We didn’t use the available parking, we were fortunate enough to get a space at the church at the top of the hill. The town, bars, restaurants are only a 5 min walk away but the hill will be a challenge for some, so be aware."

"Nous y avons dormi trois nuits. Le domaine est absolument superbe. Tout est beau - splendide même. C'est un endroit qui respire la sérénité, le savoir vivre. Une halte repos exceptionnelle dans le cadre d'un voyage dans les grandes villes d'Andalousie. Seul bémol, les deux restaurants servent une nourriture correcte, mais moins mémorable que l'hôtel et son domaine. Nous le recommandons fortement, et nous y retournerons."

Fuente Las Piedras

10/10 Excellent
"Here’s a polished review you could submit: We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Fuentes Las Piedras during our visit to Cabra. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, with spacious rooms and excellent air conditioning—something we really appreciated during the warm weather in Córdoba. The staff was welcoming, professional, and always willing to help with any questions we had. Parking was convenient and made coming and going very easy. The hotel is in a great location for exploring Cabra and the surrounding region while still offering a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. We would gladly stay here again and recommend Hotel Fuentes Las Piedras to anyone visiting the Córdoba province."

10/10 Excellent
"Fantastic location rooms were spacious clean and very reasonably priced. Free parking for motorbikes. Restaurant and bar very reasonably priced and good portions. Check in was quite tedious as the self check in was not very intuitive and didn't recognise United Kingdom and neither did the receptionist which seemed odd eventually between us we got to complete the check in. Overall I would say this hotel was a good find but a bit remote if you like a variety of places to visit but the views and terrace were to die for. Highly Reccomended"
