I just wish there were more hotels like this in the world. The bedrooms are lovely, the food fantastic, location perfect and the hosts welcoming! What more can you ask for?! The swimming pool and the gardens are just the cherry on the top! more

A stunning setting at the base of the dramatically lit fortified walls of Ronda. the Alavera is a quiet haven from the tourist bustle of Ronda. The gardens are lush, with several sitting areas amid fountains, a small swimming pool and they look out on the Andalucía countryside complete with sheep and horses. The interior decoration is beautiful Andalucía-Moorish and... more

Just the facts and decide if for you… First, the good news… from a terraced room it is a lovely botanical/pastoral scene. They serve a meat/cheese/home baked bread (well not baked there, you can see the delivery truck early in the morning) breakfast from 8:30-10:30. The common areas are large and nicely decorated.

Located at the edge of the old town, it's near enough to the centre of Ronda to be convenient but far enough away to have a relaxed and quiet feel.... more

We spent 2 nights at Alavera de los Banos. It was so relaxing, peaceful and quiet. The views from the windows were tremendous, opening to the gardens and pool (with a wonderful fragrance that permeated our room), and beyond the garden, a farm with horses. The place is very tastefully appointed, the staff are helpful, and the breakfast phenomenal! Highly... more

About a 10 minute walk up the stairs with beautiful views of the country and the gorge. We were their on our honeymoon and wished we could stay a bit longer, but were... more
