Hotel de la Cañada

A good four-star hotel overlooking the river walk, also known as the Cañada. Rooms run about $40-$70, and there’s a small gym with a pool. Many rooms have great views. This is where I stayed, and on weekends, there’s a crafts fair on the river close to the hotel. The fair is a crafty and cruisy experience and one of the highlights of a gay trip to Cordoba.

This hotel is just up the street from the Cañada, and has 140 rooms with prices ranging from $80 to $200. There is also a gym with a pool and views overlooking the river walk. It’s a better class of accommodations than the Cañada, with in-room Internet, good for people on business.
