A great location two minutes from the New Bridge. The rear of the hotel overlooks the valley so some rooms have excellent views. However, some don't. Our room was very small and overlooked the narrow street outside. It was dark. The darkest room we have ever stayed in. The furniture was antique and further cramped the available space. It too was dark! The staff were very friendly and we especially liked the lady who looked after the breakfast area. Always helpful and a lovely smile. The breakfast room had excellent views. We went out to the rear sitting area but this was not yet open for the summer season and the pool was not cleaned ready for use. This is a good hotel and if you spend the premium for the rooms at the back you will have a better experience then us.

We stayed in a room without a view, so it faced street. Could hear a lot of street noise, as well as noise from inside hotel. Luckily, it was fairly quiet all around from about 11pm to 7am. Room was clean. We liked the historic feeling of hotel (not modern).|If pay for room with view, experience could be much better|Good location. Can walk to almost all historic areas (Ronda is not very large). |Breakfast was good. View from breakfast room is great. Good selection of foods. Person managing the breakfast was very friendly and helpful.|Front desk service was good, but not overly friendly.

Beautiful place, incredible scenery. Awesome friendly staff. Bathroom clean and functioning. Very good mattress, slept really well. Room was tidy, too bad I didn't have time to enjoy it more. Restaurant was wonderful, also the breakfast place.

We had a very pleasant stay here over Xmas 2025. Arrived Xmas eve around 6pm in our old Honda Jazz, which was small enough to leave outside a small shop where the road widens. (There is slightly more room around 20 yards further on). We had booked overnight parking and reception staff were ready to take the car keys and park it inside a secure gated garage around 40 yards away. I would have no hesitation leaving my treasured JBA Falcon here. We were allocated room 001 which has a fantastic view of the bridge and valley through double glazed doors with Juliet balcony. And we could hear the stream and waterfall below, even with closed windows, which never stops. This made me imagine our sleep would be disturbed, but I was so wrong. There must be something therapeutic / reassuring when sleeping with the sound of a waterfall in the background. The room is a good size and the bathroom larger than average. There is a modern TV in the room but we found it was small by today’s norms. It could also be positioned better if it was placed on top of the set of drawers. This space was occupied by a kettle & cups. (No milk for English tea and limited tea bags. I liked the mint tea). The bed was comfortable. The first night was cold, which is unusual for Spain, but Ronda is in the mountains around 1000m above sea level. Too little bedding and I hadn’t figured out the heating controls. See photo for settings we discovered. Our first evening meal on Xmas eve had a limited choice menu. Squid or Lamb for mains. We had the lamb, which was accompanied by boiled potatoes and veg. The star of this meal being a chocolate fondant. This first evening meal was in the lower (breakfast) restaurant. We thought breakfast was a bit limited. Mainly due to not finding the fried eggs in the Bain-Marie until the end of our second breakfast. It’s in the far corner. By our last breakfast we found bacon in it as well. Xmas day evening meal was held in the upper restaurant. It was cold and I had to wear my coat zipped up! There was a quite extensive menu on offer. The prawn starter was a good choice and we could have easily shared it. I was disappointed with my steak and the jacket potato was absent. I tried my partner’s duck and found it tough. On Boxing Day we ventured out in our car and delighted to see both Acinipo and Sentinel de Bodegas. About 30 minutes drive. Don’t forget to check out my YouTube channel DocksideGlyn and by doing so help raise funds for Cancer Research (it’s free).

A spectacular setting set into the cliffs by the bridge, we had a suite with a Juliet balcony and the view was breathtaking. Individual rooms tastefully decorated and equipped spotlessly clean. Good food and again a restaurant with spectacular views. Spotlessly clean and staff endlessly helpful and polite especially Lola who checked us in valet parked the car and found some milk late at night 👍

The room was fantastic. The staff is professional and very helpful. Patricia was one of the most knowledgeable and helpful staff member we had met during our two weeks in Spain. The view from the onsite restaurant was breathtaking and the food was exceptional. If you travel to Ronda I would highly recommend this hotel and restaurant.

My partner and I had a great view of the bridge from our room. Our room was quiet and isolated from the bustle of the rest of the hotel. There aren’t a lot of communal spaces in the hotel. We did get a drink in the lounge but you need to ask the receptionist for the drinks. The restaurant had a lovely view. It was warm enough to sit on the patio with the heaters at night.

Total hotel experience was one of the best we've ever had. What was lacking maybe with the room was more than made up for by the staff and the the quality of the food served at both dinner and breakfast. It was the best hotel staff, top to bottom, I've ever come across.
