In the middle of the fertile plain of the Ebro and backed by the
Beceite mountains, this historic hotel dominates the upper part of
the town, in a setting which combines the monumental beauty of the
town with the attractions of the different natural enclaves which
surround it. Abderramán III decided to build this fortification,
which now houses the 72-room hotel, next to 4 splendid large
Catalan Gothic windows. The interior décor assimilates the
predominance of Christian and regal characters with classical style
furniture and wooden beams. It is fully air-conditioned and
features a lobby with 24-hour reception and check-out service, as
well as a currency exchange facility and lift access. The hotel's
walls feature Arabic motifs, whilst the dining room's large Gothic
windows are a must-see. Alongside the dining room, there is a café,
restaurant, TV room and conference facilities. Internet access is
provided and a children's play area is available. Room and laundry
services are provided, whilst guests arriving by car can leave
their vehicles in the hotel's own undercover and outdoor private
car parks.
