What better than staying just a 5 minute walk from the Mezquita during your trip to Cordoba? At Best Location Hotels, we have selected 7 hotels which are right at the heart of Cordoba´s historical centre, in the wonderful Jewish Quarter.

 

Cordoba´s famous Mezquita is one of the most visited monuments in Spain and is a real must-see if you are visiting this historical Andalusian city. Together with Granada´s Alhambra, they embody the true essence of Andalusian architecture, built by the moors which make them very different to the other main cathedrals you may find throughout the rest of Spain.

 

The Jewish Quarter is the other essential place to visit in Cordoba. Aside from its cultural interest coming from the remnants of its Jewish past, the neighbourhood is an enchanting labyrinth of narrow streets, with bursts of colour coming from the beautiful flowers, coloured patio tiling and white facades of the houses and courtyards, which are teeming with history.

 

There is no doubt that the best area to stay in Cordoba is nearby the Mezquita in the historical centre.
