There are many hotels in Ronda, and several of these are superb. But quite a few people who visit Ronda have a particular desire to stay in the old part of town, with its history, narrow cobbled streets and romantic stories. This is the protected historic quarter of Ronda, where very little modern development is allowed, making it a unique place to stay. From here, you can step outside your hotel and walk to the Puente Nuevo, the Plaza Duquesa de Parcent, the Mondragón Palace and many of the city’s most important attractions, all while soaking up the atmosphere of one of Andalucía’s most beautiful historic towns.
Ronda’s old town extends from the Puente Nuevo along Calle Armiñan until the old walls and Almocabar Gate, and down as far as the Arab Baths, so we have included the Hotel Alavera de los Baños even though other travel guides might consider it outside the old town.
I’ve been living in this lovely area of Western Andalucia for the last 20 years or so and dedicate most of my time to the running of English language tourist information websites for the towns of Cádiz, Ronda, Grazalema, the famous or infamous Caminito del Rey, and also Wildside Holidays, which promotes sustainable and eco-friendly businesses running wildlife and walking holidays in Spain. My articles contain affiliate links that will help you reserve a hotel, bus, train or activity in the area. You don’t pay more, but by using them you do support this website. Thankyou!
