Not just a hotel, but an oasis! After an overnight flight and then a 3+ hour drive from Madrid airport, Hotel Hospes de Palacio Arenales & Spa was just what we needed. We luxuriated by the pool and were fortified with snacks and drinks at the pool bar. We also booked an hour in the spa, which was refreshing. The staff was unfailingly polite and helpful. The only negative was that there was a Saturday night wedding, and we could hear some of the guests noisily tromping through the hallways at 2am.

Oasis in the Desert

This hotel is like an oasis in the desert. The location is spectacular and there are plenty of walks to go on with the dogs. The staff are ultra friendly and the facilities are second to none. We have been coming here for many years and it has never disappointed us. They opened the outside swimming pool while we were there and that was an added bonus

I am very very picky and only stay in familiar chain hotels. Took a gamble and hit the jackpot staying here. Exceeded my expectations. The ONLY annoying thing was the twin beds pushed together which did not work. Other than that this is a top tier resort with a lot of attention to the most minute details. I would highly recommend this resort to the picky traveler like me.
