An incredible property with stacks of original features. Immaculately clean. Olivier was so welcoming, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was fresh and great continental selection. Bar selection was good (although we didn’t partake) Garden and pool were lovely too. We would definitely return. Totally recommend. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

We loved this property as it was so full of character and the position next to the station meant we could travel into Malaga and further afield easily without driving and having to park. Don’t worry about the noise as the trains don’t run overnight and the accommodation was so peaceful. We loved the pretty garden and the pool. Olivier was a wonderful host and made us feel very cared for. Every day he had excellent recommendations for where to go etc. And Alora itself was a great little town topped with a pretty castle.

Beautiful House

Lovely couple run this B&B from Belgium, Gave great local advice on where to eat and visit, cooked great food including breakfast. Beautiful historic house by the station but didn't notice the trains which run quietly.

The hosts are very responsive and very nice. The place is spotless and the pool is amazing. If you come by train, the station is right across the hotel but you won’t hear it at night as it stops early. Visit the beautiful city of Alora and perfect stay to visit Caminito del Rey! Would recommend.
