The Michelin Guide's review
Rediscovered in 1913 beneath the Palacio de Villardompardo, Jaén's Arab baths date from the 11C. Superb restoration work has highlighted their architectural perfection. The first room has a glass floor enabling visitors to view the archaeological remains below. The four rooms - an entrance hall, cold room, warm room and hot room - are connected by horseshoe arches. Light filters delicately through, making for a serene atmosphere.
