About
Jerez:
In
the course of history, Jerez has been an enclave strongly influenced by
the different cultures that setteled there, a fact that is visible through
numerous historical remains in the city as well as in its surroundings.
The traces of the Phoenician Xerez, the strongly Roman influenced Ceret,
the important moslem Sherish as well as the outstanding Christian constructions
of later times form a wide range of architectural styles and outstanding
buildings which make Jerez a precious city with a real special urban appearance. |
|
Very few
places in Spain have such an international reputation as Jerez.
Due to
its wine, namely Jerez or Sherry, the name of our city became famous a
long time ago and surpassing frontiers, it became universal. Jerez
is not only its wine or only the architecture of singular buildings, Jerez
offers much more to everbody: it is also the home of Cartujan Horses, the
fighting bulls, the cradle of the art of Flamenco, the city of motor sports
and big events.It has been declared as a centre of historic and artistic
interest.
Nowadays
Jerez is a big city where tradition lives together in perfect harmony with
actual modernity: Big malls and avenues join the lively historic centre
where shopping and enjoying snacks go hand in hand.

All
these different characteristics, as well as its extraordinary geographic
situation and climate and the unique and distinctive tourist attractions,
make Jerez a perfect choice for living and visiting.
Jerez
presents itself to all travellers, visitors and tourists as a very attractive
city. It is easy to explore because of its dimension, although it is the
fifth biggest city in Andalusia according to its inhabitants. It is a great
oportunity and advantage to walk through the widely spread pedestrian zones
and enjoy at the same time the historic and artistic center of the city. |

which help you to get in touch with our culture.
Flamenco:
Every day there are live Flamenco Shows apart from numerous festivals and
special concerts during the course of the year. It is important to mention
the 'Centro Andaluz de Flamenco' (Andalusian Centre of Flamenco) with its
specialized book and audio library. There are also a number of Flamenco
schools, some of them combined with Spanish Language Courses for foreigners. |

Wine:
Jerez is known worldwide for its wine, the 'Jerez'. The reason for this
globaly unique product lies in its geographical situation, its privileged
climate, the soil where the wineyards are cultivated, as well as the variety
of the grape and, last not least, in the special seasoning of the wine.
Some of the best and most famous 'bodegas' (wine cellars) of Jerez are
located at a short distance from the Hotel, namely González Byass
(Tio Pepe), Sandeman, Domecq, Harveys, etc.

to be one of the best equestrian presentations worldwide and is of course
one of the major tourist attractions of Jerez. On Monday, Wednesday and
Friday you can see the training and preparation of the show and visit the
rest of the building, including the Museum of Equestrian Art. On Saturday
you can visit the 'Yegüada de la Cartuja' (horse-breeders), the biggest
and most important centre of Carthusian horses of pure Andalusian blood.
