    Casas del Rey de Baeza

    Seville 

    This is a highly acclaimed hotel centred on a series of courtyards shaded by balconies of lush plants. A real feeling of relaxation and intimacy prevails, and this is possibly one of the most charming hotels in Seville, with its traditional architecture, furniture and attention to detail. Located just a stone’s throw away from one of the city’s great palaces, Casa de Pilatos, it is a great base from which to discover Seville. The roof-top terrace is very inviting, not least for its swimming pool and wonderful views.

    Hotel Montelirio

    Ronda 

    This small, charming hotel, formerly a 17th-century nobleman's palace, is perched on the edge of Ronda's iconic Tajo gorge and is ideally situated for exploring the town. The 14 elegant rooms, each one different, are decorated in rich, bold colours and sumptuous fabrics befitting of a noble dwelling. The hotel’s Albacara restaurant is justifiably popular, not only for its sophisticated menus but also for its privileged position and arguably the best view in Ronda, overlooking the spectacular gorge and the Puente Nuevo (new bridge). Booking in advance is highly recommended. There is also a bar and terrace (again with those views) and comfortable lounge with a beautiful Moorish ceiling. The hotel also boasts a small hammam and splash pool. Upgrades to rooms with views over the gorge are available.
