  Idyllic setting, lovely building, staff very endearing

  Liked: The grounds were just stunning. The pool area was lovely with very comfortable beds. We adored the two dogs Rosalia and the big dog Anton who guards the goats! Loved the staff-so friendly, nice and helpful. Atmosphere lovely and nothing slick or generic here but very charming!

  Disliked: The bed sheets were too small for the bed! Also some tapas should be on offer during the afternoon to bridge the gap between breakfast and dinner. Maybe offer a wider range of drinks too. This hotel is NOT a Radisson so don’t go if you’re seeking that but do go if you want a warm and gorgeous stay in a quirky place!

  Great location and views, poor/heavy decoration

  Liked: Amazing location in the middle of sierra de Cazorla

  Disliked: The decoration was a bit on the heavy side with religious iconography everywhere you looked. No doubt it was a convent at one point in the past. The rooms was very small and crowded
