On a recent trip to Spain we went to El Chorro for the day and ended up having some lunch at La Garganta. It really was very good - my 'rabo del toro' (bulls tail stew) was delicious and the rabbit my friend had was also very good; both portions were large - we certainly didn't leave hungry. Prices were... More

Stayed for a night whilst on a tour of the region - this was the worst food of the hotels we used. I would say the location is OK and the surrounding area is very pretty. I was disappointed by the 'in the lakes' tag, as its actually a man made reservoir and power station! Its fairly attractive as they... More

We went to El Chorro a couple of weeks ago. It was a really beautiful place. We stopped by for a dinner at La Garganta. Its might be the worst dinner we have had. We ordered pasta with minced meet. O boy, minced bones and fat. Really greasy!! Super bad!! It was impossible to eat it. Before we ordered the... More

Spent an exhausting day at the lakes and needed a nice relaxing place to spend the night. The Garganta delivered completely, a lovely location in the tiny hamlet of El Churro. Our two bedroomed apartment was excellent, spacious and comfortable it was like a huge barn with half height walls partitioning the rooms. The overall feeling was one of luxury... More

I know this hotel was closed for some time and has been completely refurbished. The large comfortable bedrooms have been beautifully modernised and the furnishings and colourings kept in tune with the old mill. The bathroom was also huge. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. The hotel has a lovely pool, great for swimming lengths with plenty of sunloungers for the guests.... More

This is our third trip to el Chorro and the second time we've stayed here. The rooms are heated (important in winter) and very comfortable. Most rooms have 2floors with a couch and sitting area downstairs and the bed & bath upstairs accessed by a narrow spiral staircase. Views of the reservoir and steep limestone walls cant be beat! Wifi,... More

I stayed here for four nights in Sep 2011, and couldn't fault the hotel in any way - spectacular location, friendly and personal service, god quality food at a range of reasonable prices, great pool especially if, like me, you prefer to do some lengths-swimming and even the view whilst swimming was stunning. The room was a 'duplex' with bedroom... More

Okay the hotel is ideal for the location and as long as you avoid the crappy 'English' run restaurant you should be fine. Food is below average and typical English attempting Spanish cuisine. Take a walk and find somewhere better to eat or visit a local whetherspoon here in England for better food and probably better service (service at bar... More
