"A two night stop over to undertake some business and catch up with some old friends. The Hotel itself was a pleasure and very comfortable with welcoming staff.

Best to drop off any luggage first. There is an excellent restaurant right next door called the Ca n'Amatolox, run by Chef Sergi, who very accommodating despite...

Recent Reviews in Ardales

Silken Antequera Hills

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel which was clean and bright. The rooms were a little dated compared to the common area and the selection on the food buffet wasn't great but apart from that we had a really nice stay."

Hotel Don Miguel

8/10 Good

"The Big thing the Don Miguel has going for it is its prime location overlooking the gorge right beside the iconic new bridge. You can't beat the view! Otherwise, it is a fine, if well-worn, older hotel. The restaurant has multiple terraces all with lovely views, but so-so food. They say they have limited parking, but it is so limited that most guests must hunt for limited parking elsewhere in town."
