Hotel Cortijo del Arte - Caminito del Rey

Our recent stay at Hotel Cortejo del Arte was truly delightful! Santiago, the owner, warmly welcomed us and ensured our experience was exceptional. The rooms were cozy and well-maintained, contributing to a pleasant stay. The hotel itself was charming, providing a comfortable atmosphere for relaxation with fireplaces on around (as it was December) The hotel provided a comfortable retreat for our days of exploration. Its convenient location allowed us to easily visit Marbella, Malaga, Ronda, and Cadiz in the afternoons after our morning horse rides. One of the highlights was Santiago’s involvement in co-owning a horse riding facility. The horse riding experience was a highlight of our trip. He effortlessly arranged lessons for us, allowing us to have an incredible time exploring this fantastic activity. The dedication he showed in organizing everything for us was simply outstanding. Not only they provided riding lessons but also allowed us to assist with basic care for the horses, and learn more about horsemanship which added a special touch to our stay. Additionally, the restaurant's delicious meals and the attentive staff contributed to our overall enjoyment. Santiago's dedication to ensuring a pleasant stay was evident throughout. Overall, Hotel Cortejo del Arte provided a lovely retreat. It's a place I'd recommend for a relaxing getaway.

I booked half board in a double room. On arrival on a very hot day the reception was empty and I spent around 20 minutes trying to find someone to check in who eventually appeared. The room was average. However this was not my main issue. Having already paid £113 for half board I arrived at their restaurant to be told by the waiting staff that as part of the half board deal I could have a starter, main & dessert (which my wife had). However at the end of the meal I was presented with a bill for €96!! The manager stated that I would be given an allowance back the following morning at breakfast. Sure enough the following morning I was presented with €36!!! For the two of us which didn’t even cover the starters. I feel conned very misleading, nothing was made clear & I urge future guests to book room only so that you then know what your paying for. WONT BE RETURNING

Great little hotel . Very relaxing , staff excellent and very helpful and accommodating . We were very relaxed and comfortable there and enjoyed afew drinks in the restaurant which is alongside the hotel . The pool is great and there are Sunbeds to relax on .

Nous avons découvert un hôtel plein de charme et authentique dans son jus andalous type hacienda. Merci encore à Natacha pour son super accueil et le dernier dîner offert par le propriétaire très désireux et fier de nous faire découvrir les plats de sa région. Le restaurant est de très bon niveau et dispose d'une terrasse ombragée et non fumeur très agréable par ces fortes chaleurs. L'hôtel est bien situé pour visiter la région. Le tout dans un trés bond rapport qualité / prix.

The hotel is comfortable but there are a few shortcomings like the shower which is barely more than a dribble! Breakfast is poor - they offer you eggs but with nothing! The coffee needs to be upgraded and a decaf option added. There is plenty of parking and it's easy to find. I will review the restaurant separately and this will get a better rating.
