Hotels in Cordoba

Córdoba is one of Spain's most popular year round city break destinations. Every weekend and public holiday it attracts Spanish tourists and Córdoba is also very popular with foreign visitors.The reason why Córdoba is such a popular city break destination is largely due to it being the capital of Spain during the Moorish occupation of the peninsula (716-1236), and under their rule thought to have been one of the largest and most advanced cities in the world. The rulers of Córdoba produced great architectural achevements, many of wich still can be found in Córdoba's inner city area. The result is a heritage unique from that of other European cities, attracting crowds from all over the world. People come to see remnants of a lost empire, many famous monuments, and to experience the atmosphere, culture, cuisine and other delights of Córdoba.
