From Andalusi palace to a 1994 hotel Mont-Sant occupies an estate on the slope of Xàtiva castle with a long history. In Islamic times it was a complex of buildings and gardens from which the city was governed; the Cordoban Ibn Hazm took refuge there and wrote The Ring of the Dove. After James I's conquest it was a royal residence, and the great cistern remains from that period. In the fourteenth century James II founded a Cistercian convent, which was extended in the sixteenth. After the confiscation of church property it was sold, in 1855 the church and cloister were demolished, and with the walls that remained a country house was built, from which the present gardens come. It opened as a hotel in 1994, after a restoration that preserved the old. The Generalitat's tourism register classifies it as a four-star hotel, open all year.
