Los Pilares De Ronda Guest House

Lovely environment. Just 5-10 minutes driving to Ronda city center. Friendly staff. Good and clean room with a fine bathroom

The breakfast could use some more variety for 6€

Peace and quiet. The pool, hearing the sound of birds singing and insects buzzing by. Waking up to the sound of birds singing and horses neighing.

Only breakfast was provided (at an extra cost). We would have liked to eat in on at least one of the nights. However, there are plenty of ventas within easy reach by car so no problem!

Casa Rural Los Pastores was a great place for us to stay. It is situated less than 5 minutes drive from Ronda but is sat in beautiful grounds with stunning views of the surrounding countryside. The staff were friendly, very helpful and our room was clean and well presented. It served us as the perfect place to have relaxing evenings after wandering around Ronda during the day.

Nice surrounding and countryside.

The hotel staff insisted on paying the total costs or part of the costs in cash for a reason that I could not understand. In reality there was not the slightest problem with the telephone connection. Also the price of meals (home made but really simple food and of whatever they can found in their fridge) is extremely exaggerated, and as for the dinner no pricelist as available in advance. This is not an honest way to receive guests.

The environment and the cosiness

Price of supper was way to high. Supper was very poor

The room was very nice and homely. The staff were also very helpful and made sure our stay was pleasant.

Probably best if you come here with a car rather than trying to walk into town. The distance to town is not that great (5km or so) but the first part of the road is part othe highway and difficult to walk along for fear of oncoming trucks. This is by no means a comment on the hotel or its location, simply a note identifying that it is best to stay at this place if you are driving and not just backpacking.

The surrounding area is stunning. They have converted an old farmhouse/ ranch into a stunning guest house. All the rooms are individual and beautifully decorated, in-keeping with the outback/ countryside theme. There is a fireplace in the room and you receive a free basket of logs on your first night. Lovely pool and a great place to stay in short distance to Ronda.

Beautiful, modern well decorated room on a nice horse farm. Beautiful breakfast/dining room and bar. You have to fill in the form for breakfast every day. Nice to have a day at the pool. Not far from Ronda. City is small an not as spectacular as everybody says :-(

Smell from the bathroom's sink, so keep the door from the bathroom closed at night. Nobody spoke English, so we could not ask if it was still possible to have dinner (no adverts anywhere) or do the horse back riding (we didn't made a reservation in advance). Although, the staff is very friendly and tries to help as much as they can :-) . A lot of flies, but that's normal in Andalucia in September. Poor route description: from Ronda you have to take the road to Algaciras, this is the A369, a little bit further down the road than camping El Sur.

We stayed one night. We liked the rural setting and the wonderful cool breezes that blew that evening, though I don't know how typical that was. The pools looked fun and inviting, but we didn't have time to try them.

We booked an apartment, but since it had an ant problem, we were given two doubles and access to the kitchen for the same price. That was the best solution possible, but it was not the same as having our own kitchen. The room on the lower floor had the damp smell of a basement room.

Everything! Staff was very helpful, limited English but used computer to help w/translation. Prepared an excellent dinner so no need to leave property, good value. Room was very clean, bed large and comfortable. Very quiet at night. A truly relaxing place to stay, a nice break from the village/city touring sights on our trip! Highly recommend, just wish we could have stayed longer.

Very nice location, with a very nice swimmingpool. The rooms are big and clean and original. We loved it.

We took the diner (a menu for 20 € per person). It was horrible. The food was cold, too salty and too fat. It was the worst diner we had in Spain. We took also the breakfast wich was satisfying(better than the diner).

Highly recommended. Friendly staff. Nice atmosphere for a laid-back romantic getaway from a bustling city-life. But take note that a car is needed to get around given its location.

This was the most hospitable place I have ever stayed in. The pictures do not do justice to the beauty of the area and hotel. We were taken care of like family.

The location, which is only 4 kilometres outside Ronda, a very nice little town, famously being built on either side of a gorge. The concept is also attractive, and it is clear the owners have put a lot of money and effort into the facility, which was unfortunately spoiled by several minor points.

The first hurdle is that the instructions for the intercom entry system are all in Spanish (unsurprisingly!) and unfortunately my rudimentary Spanish was not sufficient, so getting in was a bit of a challenge. The accommodation we were shown to was very cold, despite the heat of the day, so we requested additional blankets, which were promised for later that evening, but never appeared. As a result, two of our party were unable to sleep, as there was no heating. The blankets were supplied on the second day. Although there was an expensive flat screen tv in the room, we were unable to receive any channels, which rendered it a "white elephant", but this was (partly) rectified the next day. The hotel appears to be left in charge of young girls who speak no English, so we could only communicate through a translation facility on their computer, which was a bit hit and miss, to say the least. In summary, perhaps my expectation of a luxurious country idyll were unrealistic, but I shall be sticking to 4 star hotels in town in future.

Very unusual accomodation. There are pheasants , rabbits, geese, deer and of course horses roaming freely around the site. Lovely unique location. Would recommend to open minded travellers who are looking for something different.

Breakfast is extra and was lovely but very small. Bacon and eggs did not come with toast or rolls.
