El Armador Casa Palacio by Luxury Suites Cádiz

Stunning top floor apartment with two equally good en-suite bedrooms and a rooftop terrace to die for. Perfect for sundowner drinks and morning coffee. It was refreshing that there was a reception desk manned for most of the day, and the lady who checked us in was truly lovely, smiley and welcoming. We booked this apartment for three of us and the cost compared very well with the two double rooms we might have booked somewhere else, but we got much more space. Great location just off Plaza San Antonio, and very quiet. Whole-heartedly recommend!

The suite was amazing, clean, well decorated and comfy beds. It was also extremely quiet, clean white towels, wonderful toiletries, and a combination washer and dryer. We stayed in the Penthouse that has the largest terrace, and we made use of it. The reception was fantastic, allowing us to drop off our luggage early and they even brought our belongings up to the room and we were able to check in 1 hour early. This place made us feel relaxed, welcomed and made us feel sad that we were leaving Cadiz.

The question, "How easy was it to collect the key upon arrival" is a good question. This property asked and asked me (by email) "When will you arrive?" Sometimes it is hard to say an exact time when travelling by car and not acquainted with the roads. When our route was blocked/shut down by the police, we found out why we were asked about our arrival time over several conversations. A beautiful local parade (3 Kings) was shutting down our streets. A direct warning to us would have been helpful INSTEAD of repeated, open questions about arrival time. This cultural difference in addressing a conflict was frustrating to us, and we wished for direct sentences about the road issue to warn us, i.e., not appropriately handled. It did not take away from the lovely location.

Everything was amazing. The hotel is a converted “casa palacio” that was built in the 1860’s for a noblewoman and was remodeled 7 years ago. It is charming, beautifully decorated, and comfortable. The staff is helpful and pleasant. The location is unbeatable - on a pedestrianized street and walkable to everything. Highly recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay here, the building is beatiful and perfectly situated, the apartment was very clean and well equipped. Maria was most kind and welcoming and gave us many suggestions on what to do and see in Cadiz. The restaurant suggestions were also excellent. Amenities are so close and two of the best ice cream shops are within 200 metres on Ancha street. I also really liked the keyless system they have throught the building.
