Hotels near Castillo Árabe

"We stayed at Del Cielo Azul in February, just after the storms had passed through Portugal and Spain. The day we arrived was still a bit stormy, but the next morning the sky was beautifully blue exactly living up to the name. It was a little too cold to use the pool at that time of year, but the setting was still lovely and peaceful. The hotel feels like an old house that has been thoughtfully converted into a small guesthouse. It has a lot of personality and charm — definitely not a generic or chain-style hotel. It’s super quiet, which we really appreciated. The host was incredibly kind and helpful, giving us directions and recommendations for the area, especially for hiking Caminito del Rey, which was one of the main reasons for our visit. The bathroom takes a little time for the hot water to fully heat up, but once it does, the shower is very good and comfortable. The only small improvement I would suggest is providing a bit more shampoo and shower gel the portions were quite small. Breakfast was okay, but dinner was surprisingly excellent. I had the chicken and it was genuinely delicious. There’s also a dog and a cat on the property, they don’t interfere at all, just add to the character of the place. Parking is available at the back of the property, which was convenient. Overall, it’s a charming, quiet, personality-filled stay especially ideal if you’re visiting for hiking in the area."

"Right in the central alora! The room needs little tlc and they need to be sure about where we can park and where we can’t that would help the guests "

"Very nice B&B, friendly owners, lovely pool! One can hang out at the pool, with a view over the valley! "

"Finca Viva La Vida is a little gem in the hills of Alora. The property is beautiful. The rooms are tastefully designed, excellent water pressure with very hot water (if you like) and a comfortable bed! The pool area is nice and relaxing and positioned to receive sun most of the day - a great place to relax after a hike. The breakfast courtyard might be my favorite - very serene, comfortable, beautifully decorated - a great place not only for breaktfast, but also to read a book, write, etc. The breakfast was BEAUTIFUL and so tasty! The host family is WONDERFUL!!!! Highly recommend staying here! "
