Hotel Boutique Molino del Arco

Hotel Molino del Arco is a 15-minute drive north of Ronda. You'll need a car and GPS to get there. Leaving the main road, you'll take a narrow, sometimes unpaved road. The hotel is set in the countryside, with beautiful views over the valley and mountains. It is a converted almazara, an olive oil mill. The Spanish word almazara comes from the Arabic al-mas'sara, meaning to extract. Centuries-old olive trees and vines surround the hotel building. The family that owns the hotel still produces olive oil. The accommodation is modern, comfortable and tastefully decorated, built hacienda style around a beautiful inner courtyard. We had two connecting double rooms. There's a large swimming pool for an afternoon dip after visiting touristy Ronda. The hotel has a large shady garden. We made friends with a young black cat adopted by the hotel, called Oreo. All the staff were friendly and professional. The multilingual reception staff were warm and friendly, offering service in English, French and Spanish, of course. Breakfast is excellent and the hotel serves Spanish cuisine for dinner, which is rare in hotels these days, if you don't want to drive at night to Ronda. Molino del Arco comes highly recommended. Don't rush your stay at this lovely place, try to spend at least three nights to enjoy a quiet break from the hectic life. And they have reliable Wi-Fi too.

a charming boutique hotel in the countryside with a beautiful garden, fishpond, and generous swimmiingpool area. Very personalized service, the brother of the owner is very helpful and friendly. Food is all homemade, marmelade, honey , freshly pressed orangejuice. Dinner was excellent with fresh products. The place is ideal to relax and just feel at home far from home. The best place I ve been to so far. Charming.

Fantastic location, beautiful house and gardens with a pool at the end of the garden, superb! Our room was relatively small, but we were there for just 1 night. They have larger rooms . Everything was beautifully decorated . The people were very nice and welcoming, really great!

The location, the buildings, the grounds the restaurant and the staff are amazing. After a rather disappointing visit to the city of Ronda (way too many tourists…..especially the big groups with guides who block the streets are a nightmare), the hotel made our trip to Ronda more than worthwhile!!

We love the country house style of accommodation. We enjoyed the breakfast, dinner, swimming pool and the garden. All the staff are friendly. The waiter was knowledgeable in the regional wine and nearby wineries. Hotel contact me on Whatsapp me with hotel information before my arrival.
