Hi!
I'm planning an October trip to Spain which will include one night in Ronda. Unfortunately, most of the hotels I've tried are booked!!
Ronda Parador- Reg rooms are full, "Superior" is out of budget.
Hotel San Gabriel-Full
Hotel Las Casonas-closing forever in September!
Hotel Don Miguel-Full
Hotel San Francisco-no room with view (maybe I should just take this anyway?).

So, looking for recs for other Ronda hotels, or possibly in towns closeby.

Thanks!

Hi Kristina: There is a hotel called Hotel Enfrente Arte in Ronda.
My daughter and S-inLaw stayed there for 4 days.They loved it. Check their website: www.enfrentearte.com
Good Luck!

Try Fuente del Higuera. Just outside Ronda: http://www.hotellafuente.com/

We stayed there a couple of years ago - very nice and I think they are open in October.

Have you tried the parador? Friends of ours stayed there last summer and thought it was excellent.

sorry.....I've just re-read and noticed the regular rooms are full - I somehow missed it first time!

THanks!
Any others?

Too bad about the Parador being full. You would have loved it, I know I did back in 2003.

Have you tried the Hotel Reina Victoria?

It's an old hotel -- Rilke stayed there at the turn of the century -- but immaculately clean and "atmospheric" in a way. As I recall, it also has a terrace with lovely views. The only disadvantage, if you want to call it that, is that it's about a 10-minute walk from "beautiful downtown Ronda."

P.S. I should add that I stayed there in 1990, which is 15 years ago...

If you would consider a rural setting, look at the Arriadh, a beautiful, new small b&b hotel just outside Ronda. We stayed there just over a year ago and loved it. Large, clean rooms with breathtaking views.

Why are all the rooms full then? Is there an event taking place?

~gnr~

Kristina,
The only thing I can offer at this time is that you should contact someone who lives and works in Spain to see what they can do. We us Totally Spain to book most of our hotels and country homes, so you may what to send them an email.

Thanks everyone.

We finally booked a room at a place called Jardin de la Muralla. Looks nice.

The place is new (2004) and looks interesting. Let us know what it's like.
