I've stayed twice at La Posada de Alajar and felt as though I was welcomed into the owners' home as a friend rather than just as a hotel guest in a long line of guests. This September I stayed in the lovely Posada San Marcos and the experience was even more pleasurable. My room was spacious and had a wonderful... More

Myself and a group of friends stayed in La Posada at the end of October. The hotel is excellent, a little quaint, but spotlessly clean and comfortable. The owners are not only lovely people but also knowledgeable on the area and the walks. The walks could be better signposted, this is very frustrating and hopefully something that will get sorted...

Lucy and Angel have two inns. We stayed at the San Marcos property for 4 nights. San Marcos is a short walk from La Posada de Alajar. I see other reviews for San Marcos on this site and have not been able to locate or establish a site specifically for San Marcos. The San Marcos property is beautiful. The owners... More

We stayed for four nights in early October. We considered the accommodation comfortable and 'authentically' Spanish. Huge comfortable bed, powerful hot shower, pretty balcony overlooking village square and a reasonable price. What more could we want? Or experience of Angel and Lucy as owners and hosts is in COMPLETE contrast to 'Hugh O'- they were unfailing kind, trusting, attentive and... More

We stayed here for 2 nights in late Oct 2011after phoning from the tourist office in Aracena. Lucy and Angel were incredibly helpful accommodating us in the new hotel - they now have 2 properties about 5mins walk from each other. We did not have a car but managed to use public transport to and from this beautiful area and... More

Was booked in to this place for 2 nights on a week long walking holiday with Inntravel (have used Inntravel before and all acc was excellent as was the other acc on this trip). Firstly no one at hotel when we arrived. Turns out the owners have opened a new upmarket place in town. We called, rang doorbell twice, owner... More

We stayed at the sister hotel - San Marcos - very near to La Posada de Alajar. Angel and Lucy (and Sophia!) were gracious hosts and were incredibly helpful with hike planning. Meals here were delicious and the pool was glorious after a long hike. Comfy beds, great sleeps and utter relaxation. Highly recommended for good hiking paired with lounging... More

We really enjoyed staying here for one night. My grown up daughter and I slept in the front room with the balcony overlooking the street . The room was stylishly decorated in a rustic style and was clean and comfortable. Outside the room was a lounge area with tea and coffee facilities which we used alot. Lucy and Angel are... More
