“Nice hotel, nice location”
The staff were lovely - very friendly and welcoming. It was a pleasure to sit in the dining-room or on the terrace with views down the valley. The breakfast was good. Istan was a pleasant place to explore and there were loads of walks that you could do from the hotel. For the intrepid, try the ascent of La Concha, the mountain that overlooks Marbella !

“Stunning location in a lovely old style hotel”
Stunning location, comfortable room and lovely, friendly hosts. Great value for money. If you’re looking for a luxury hotel it will not suit you. We really enjoyed our three night stay.

This beautiful property is in a great location, close to the town and all the hiking spots. Paqui, the lady at reception, greeted us with a big smile and even escorted us to our room. She also gave us all the ins and outs of the area, which we really appreciated since it was our first time. The room was lovely, with amazing views of the reservoir.
