We had a lovely time here in early April. The room was very large with a fantastic shower. It was a great base for us to do some walking. We took half board and were well fed throughout our stay. More

We were at the Hotel Bandolero for 10 days in May 2011, David and Ivan made us feel welcome in every sense of the word. The Hotel is clean and comfortable, the rooms spacious and well appointed. Each room opens onto the terrace and pool below. Every day Ivan treated us to a meal which seemed (impossibly) even better than... More

The hotel looked lovely, clean, great pool and rooms with balconies but the main reason for my review is the restaurant... AMAZING food, great service... In the middle of the mountains in Andalucia, this... More

Hotel Bandolero is one of those rare gems you're so happy to have made the effort to get to (and never want to leave). Owners David and Ivan treated everyone like extended family and no request was too much for them. All modern conveniences are here (including high-speed wireless internet and a fab rooftop pool) but what sets this so... More
