We found any staff we came across very helpful (I forget the lady’s name on Reception). We have no quibbles about the food either for breakfast or in the restaurant. We saw very few people staying here on our one night.
The room was comfortable with a good shower. Toiletries were good quality. The room we had was to the rear and overlooked the pool area and the hills beyond. The bed was comfortable and large. Everything was very clean. No complaints.

We had an exceptional stay at the hotel, it's such a beautiful building located in a very picturesque town surrounded by mountains and meadows. The renovated traditional house was so well-done and cosy, outside areas were stunningly beautiful as well. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and even though we arrived very late, just before 23:00 we were still able to have a nice dinner in the restaurant. Not to mention the fact that we travelled with our dog and she was very well taken care of and welcomed as well. Thank you for an amazing experience!

The Finca is very good and enjoyable for a stay. The apartment rooms have two individual rooms, bedroom and living room with a kitchenette. There is also a fireplace making it comfy in wintertimes. The owner is very nice and helpful if you need some support. The location is good centrally for hiking or whatever you do in the area.

Loved that all the buildings were white washed and of uniform size. No carbuncles. Only spoilt by a massive Barcelo Hotel dominating one of the hills. The person allowing it to be built there should be shot or at least give his back-hander back.....
It is a must to visit the Caves and the Castle/Church. Entrance price very reasonable.
A lot to choose from when deciding where to eat.
A lot of places however were very unfriendly to you if you had dogs with you.

Great little town.
Great little town. Famous caves are well worth a visit plus the Castillo. Lots of excellent Restaurants/Bars. The surrounding countryside is the main reason we visited the area and we were not disappointed. Did two amazing hikes, fantastic!

I visited in the first week in March.
I visited in the first week in March. It was colder than I expected (daytime highs of 11-16C). I was primarily interested in hiking and booked a rental car. Aracena is close to all the hikes in my guidebook so I only encountered the town itself in the evening getting groceries and finding restaurants. As always with Spain, it's so frustrating that no restaurants open until 8.30pm, some have "days off" which are not announced and many, even in March, were entirely closed. One really needs a local to help navigate where to eat. Having said that, it's incredible value for money. Dinner with wine for 20 Euros (March 2024).

Aracena was a cute town with a lot of surprises. The people are friendly and the town is clean and safe. Be sure to visit the Gruta de la Maravillas, a network of caves with wonderful stalactites and stalagmites and underground lakes. Also, the pork in Aracena is to die for. It's the land of Jabugo, the best dried ham in the world.

Although the apartment looked to be placed far away, it was close to the center by walking. The staff of the hotel was really kind and friendly as well. We would have liked to stay much longer than expected, we spent only a night there though.

Beautiful town in the mountains, cobbled streets and white buildings. Great views from the castle on the hill. Famous for the Gruta de las Maravillas which are definitely worth visiting. Great walks in rhe surrounding hills, through cork forests. Really friendly and helpful locals . It was great to try out our Spanish .
We arrived in Aracena by bus and were met by Luis who took us to the Casita . The small Casita has a rustic feel being just out of town and has been quirkily decorated by Louis’s wife.We felt very at home here as a base for walks in this beautiful area.The pellet boiler kept us warm in the evenings and the house was well equipped. We didn’t have a car so it was 1 or 2 k to the start of walks but we enjoyed our stay including the caves in Aracena.
Comfortable and quiet.
It's located in Aracena, very beautiful town and surrounding area with forests and small towns.
We hiked a lot in the area and visited several towns. In the evening walking in the beautiful Aracena was a pleasure.
Our host, Isidora, was very kind, gave us a lot of informations and helped in many ways.
The internal garden gives a sense of peace and isolates from the city.
Good standard of hotel for ****. Excellent bedroom, huge comfy bed, friendly staff, bathroom excellent. Minibar somewhat underwhelming and fridge noisy. Snack meals in bar good. Breakfast good too.
