4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 February 2011

We stayed here for 5 nights with the intention of hiking in the hills. Unfortunately the weather was terrible and we were only able to walk on 2 days. It was also very cold and there is no heating in the hotel. Our room was in the annexe and the wind whistled through the French windows. We had no kettle... More

We stayed here for 3 nights on our honeymoon. Alex was a fantastic host and made us feel very welcome in addition to pointing out all the best local restaurants and attractions. The room had high ceiling and felt large although it was quite compact. It also had a terrace with a spectacular view. Breakfast has a distinctly German feel... More

We stayed here for 1night. Our tour company had booked it for us as part of a walking tour of La Gomera. It is a lovely place. The room was really sweet. There is also a comfy lounge to sit in although we didn't have time unfortunately. The breakfast was very healthy German style. The best thing about it was... More

We stayed here for three days. The staff are very welcoming and helpful. The rooms are attractive and nicely furnished, although quite small. The location of the hotel is very good, with wonderful views across the valley. Parking on the road outside. There are no facilities or services in the hotel apart from breakfast. We were disappointed with Hermigua, which... More

This was our first visit to La Gomera and we were so pleased that we had chosen to stay in this lovely hotel. Hermigua was the best place to stay on the island and this was the best hotel in the area by far. Staff were exceptionally welcoming and hospitable. The excellent continental breakfast changed daily. Rooms were comfortable and... More

We really enjoyed our stay at Ibo Alfaro. The hotel is very beautiful, set in an old Canary mansion. Lovely rooms with great views of the Hermigua valley. The owners are very helpful and can give lots of tips about great beaches in the area (la Caleta for instance) or other hotels to stay on the island. We had dinner... More

We recently stayed at this hotel and couldn't have been happier. The building has a wonderful view of the valley, the rooms are lovely and the staff (especially the owner) go out of their way to be helpful. The breakfast was a great start to our day and the room in which it is served is absolutely charming. The town... More

After staying in several hotels on the island of La Gomera this is one of the best in the mid-price range. Great breakfast, lovely rooms, and a great location for doing those less popular walks. Only downside was the short walk up the hill from the bus stop - but then you get the great views. More

This is a very friendly family run hotel, with an honesty bar! It is perched on the west side of the valley and there are good views of Hermigua, banana terracing, the ocean, and Tenerife , including Teide if it is clear. Breakfast is continental and changes slightly from day-to-day, and is pretty good except the multi-vitamin juice though I... More

Hotel Ibo Alfaro is really an outstanding property. Ina, the manager, is also outstanding. I have stayed here three times in the past 5 years, and it is always a memorable experience. Great breakfast buffet. On Gomera, you definitely need a car. More
