Honestly, I was a bit afraid this place might be a little touristy when I saw the connection to Rick Steves and an odd comment about the hotel in Lonely Planet but my fears were instantly assuaged when we walked in the door. We were greeted warmly at the desk and later learned that this hotel is run by a... More

By far Arcos de la Fronterra and the El Convento Hotel were "up there" in an excellent experience during our trip throughout Spain. The town is old with plenty of history but not overrun with tourists like Ronda. The views are breathtaking. The hotel owners and staff were friendly and helpful. The room was #6 with a terrace. I agree... More

If you love views and great atmosphere this is the place. We opted for a room with a balcony and it was worth it. The old town is a great experience. It is perched up on a cliff. What a great place for walking around day and night. DO NOT drive to the hotel. The parking is impossible. Park at... More

Great location and good value for money. The views from the hotel are superb,so make sure that you get a room with a balcony. The only downside is that the floors tiles are marble, so it can get really cold during the winter.

we visited this hotel in september and chose the room with the terace. you can have a great view from the terace in the night and morning. in the night the church close to it is shown by light. in the morning we had a big fog coming making a very nice scenery from the terace close to the cliff....

This place probably has the best view of the clif on your own private balcony! We stayed here for three nights. Walkable to serveral little bars, shops and restuarants and huge walk down to the city (more like a good workout). Awesome pation for dinner/glass of wine to enjoy a beautiful sight. defnitely would be back!

If you are intending to visit Arcos then this is the perfect hotel. Leave your car at the sister hotel-Los Olivos- and ask them to order a taxi. The streets of the old quarter are very narrow and the rates for parking and taxis are very reasonable. The views from the bedrooms are stunning as you can watch the sun... More

We spent 2 nights at this hotel and thought is was an amazing experience. The location is perfect for touring the old town but be prepared for steep, narrow streets. The room and bathroom were large, comfortable, clean and an air conditioner that was more than adequite. We did not have one of the rooms with a small terrace but... More

We spent 2 nights at this hotel and boy was it worth it...that is once you have negotiated the narrow streets of the old town. Our sat nav took us into the steepest narrowest street I have ever driven on and had to follow a very helpful local and his English speaking daughter, inorder to believe driving was possible!
