Hotel El Convento is one of the most beautiful, peaceful, and charming hotels in Spain. It is a great value for the money. We loved the view from our balcony, and the friendly and accommodating staff. And you might run into Rick Steves if you stay there; he has a room dedicated to him in the hotel!

Fantastic bedroom terrace with great views. Downside was having to park in the main town carpark. We then walked uphill through the old town. I would advise getting a taxi from the car park.

The terrace off of our room had a magnificent 180 degree panoramic view from the church on the heights across a beautiful valley with cultivated fields and orchards. A flock of black birds lives in a crevice in the cliff below the church and flew in fascinating formations. Simply stunning at all times of day, sunset and starlit night!

Hotel boutique super bem localizado

Hotel bem localizado, próximo das atrações principais de Arcos de La Frontera. O apartamento dispõe de uma sacada que oferece uma excelente vista para a paisagens da região. Além disso, há a possibilidade de tomar um café no terraço apreciando as paisagens magníficas. O quarto e o banheiro são muito confortáveis, limpos e de bom tamanho. Atente-se que devido a sua localização, não há estacionamento próximo. O recomendado é pegar um táxi ou vir à pé e deixar o carro estacionado na parte de baixo da cidade.

Dormir al borde del tajo .

Un lugar remanso de paz. Unas vistas preciosas desde la misma cama y muy buena atención personalizada. Quién vaya al casco antiguo de Arcos debe saber que se puede llegar a descargar equipaje y aparcar a unos 5 min andando pero compensa muchísimo. Ir a Arcos es descansar en el centro , en el mismo tajo.
