Fodor's Expert Review El Convento

Calle Maldonado 2, Arcos de la Frontera, Andalusia, 11630, Spain Fodor's Choice

Perched atop the cliff behind the town parador, this tiny hotel in a former 17th-century convent shares the amazing view of another hotel in town, its swish neighbor (La Casa Grande). Though the rooms here are smaller and very slightly cheaper, most have private terraces and all are furnished tastefully with period artwork and sculptures. In addition, guests have the use of a large rooftop terrace on the edge of the cliff. There is no restaurant, but breakfast is available for purchase.
