Summer in Córdoba has a new meeting point for gastronomy lovers. Hospes Palacio del Bailío, a 5-star luxury hotel and a reference in hospitality in the city, presents a renewed culinary proposal that turns every meal into a memorable experience.
Under the direction of chef Rubén González, the emblematic Arbequina Restaurant, along with El Tapas Bar, the Pool Bar, and the hotel’s breakfast experience, introduce new menus designed to celebrate local produce, Mediterranean cuisine, and the culinary richness of Córdoba.
A gastronomic proposal with identity and creativity
The new gastronomic vision of Hospes Palacio del Bailío arises from a clear premise: to offer honest cuisine, based on respect for fresh and seasonal produce, elevating each ingredient with creativity and contemporary technique.
As Rubén González explains:
“Each dining experience begins with an idea and ends in an emotion to be remembered.”
His proposal combines tradition and modernity, establishing the hotel as one of the essential gastronomic destinations in Córdoba.
Arbequina: a sensory journey through Córdoba

The heart of this renovation is Arbequina Restaurant, which presents a new tasting menu inspired by the flavors, aromas, and traditions of the region.
A gastronomic journey that connects with the history of the hotel itself and with Cordovan culinary essence from a contemporary perspective.
Additionally, their new menu incorporates signature dishes such as:
- Spiced beetroot cream with tonka bean yogurt and fried pumpkin seeds
- Duck rice a la llauna with magret, shimejis, and foie
- Grilled monkfish with seaweed bilbaína, green asparagus, and salted squid ink sponge cake
Dishes that reflect Arbequina’s philosophy: product, technique, and emotion.
Wines, tapas, and new moments to share
The gastronomic experience is expanded with a renewed wine cellar and a carefully selected wine list, highlighting especially the references of the Montilla-Moriles Designation of Origin, a tribute to the vinicultural character of the province.
The proposal is designed for those looking for a special dinner as well as for those who prefer to enjoy a glass of wine or a tapa in an incomparable setting.
