It is one of 2 hotels in Colmenar, about 30 miles north of Malaga. It is popular with cyclists ( which we were ) because of its position on the route between Granada and Antequera. It is one of only 2 restaurants in the town too. It is not a distinctive building from outside, but the rooms are quite large and comfortable and parts of the hotel have real character. The bar/ dining room is locked in the morning until about 9.12am, and there is the amusing sight of guests sat on the pavement terrace waiting for it to open, the signal for which is a diverse group of locals suddenly converging on the place which then suddenly becomes a fascinating hive of activity. A good insight to rural Spain.
