During the week we stayed in Cordoba, the mayferia's were due, so we had some troubles finding a hotel (even 3 months in advance). Prices are also high during feria, so it didn't leave us much choice. The hotel was better than expected: the receptionist spoke french (and in most hotels in Spain they only speak spanish!) and was very friendly, the hotel was nice and quiet with a lovely patio to take the breakfast on or to sit on in the evening. The room was small (the bathroom door was jammed between the bed and the wall) but it was clean and ok. The hotel isn't in the mezquita area, but it is only a 10 minute walk to the old center. I think it has more charm to stay in the old center, but hotels there are expensive.
A positive thing was that there was a guarded parking only one block away and the hotel was also close to the bus stop to go to the feria's.
