Palacio Domecq

Really cool Palace, no pictures allowed inside, which is a shame. Not a fan of restructuring the interior to make a board room, but most other things were nice. The ratty non-historic furniture needs to be fixed. Credit card machine would not work for gifts (internet was down.)

I visited alone, on a Saturday morning in June this year. I was greeted by Antonio and I explained that I had a ticket, but only a half hour to see the palace because I had another booking. He was kind enough to show me the beautiful, historic palace on a private tour. I want to go back. It was a wonderful experience.

Our entire family were thoroughly entertained/ amused by the whistle stop tour of what appears to be the Domecq HQ as abandoned in the mid 80's... Nearly all the furnishings are c 1975-85 - I think if they remake Scarface, the new Al Pacino would enjoy it as place to relax and count his £s It's a very fine building - and as one reviwer has pointed out and as far as I could make out, the only exceptional pieces are the 3 Flemish tapestries used as hall decorations. If you are an English speaker - the recorded audio accompiement is hilarious, narrated by a breathless English rose better suited to a Mills & Boon audio book " as we revel in the inspiring awe and grandeur of a staircase, simply elevating one in step with history as we ascend to the first floor...". Ok, I'm making that up, but the real version is better ( or worse, depending on one's viewpoint). Is it worth it? Not sure. No photographs - I think they are / were worried about commercial espionage or decorating tips being taken without permission Quick Yes. Mui pronto

Antonio takes you around his family property. The tour gives you a deep dive into the life of Spanish aristocrats then and now. The palace is amazing and everything in it is well preserved. A must see when you visit Jerez!

We stumbled in here just walking by at exactly the time a tour was about to start. It was a guided tour but the audio was in multiple languages. Good source of history about the Domecq family and the lasting impact that they had on the town. More importantly was the quality of the well preserved rooms and curated settings of the estate. The 15 euros each felt a bit high but I would have expected to pay 10 no problem

An interesting house, but almost exclusively focused on the Domecq family. The only real art is the 3 Flemish tapestries, which are beautiful. It's a lot to pay for a 40 minute tour, and you are severely escorted all the way. No photos allowed.

Beautiful house, but….15E expensive for audio tour with a tour guide who’s main purpose is to rush you along, length of time of tour does not allow you to take in all the interesting artefacts that are on view and not mentioned in the audio tour. Also felt that priority was given to photo shoot going on at same time as tour. When compared with tour of the Alcazar this was very disappointing.

This is a very beautiful place. I visited the Plaza de Mamelon but I couldn't gain access to the Palace.
