Los Amarguillos Holidays from £491

Short but lovely stay at Aire Hotel in Almería. Perfect location, cafes, shops and restaurants at your doorstep. Quiet, clean and comfortable after a long day of driving :-)

The staff at the hotel were super friendly and the selection for the breakfast was outstanding, we really enjoyed our stay there, we hope to go back soon!

Very pleasant hotel well maintained. Restaurant good for breakfast but buffet style dinner menue could be improved upon.

Lovely pool - well run with professional lifeguards.

The decor always was a strange mix of classical and rather tacky gold painted mock baroc, some of it looking as if it had been knocked up by carpenters on set. - and it quite possibly was. The hotel was initially built for visit ing movie stars, and the current owners have preserved the signed photos of big names who stayed there 40 years ago while filming around Almeria. Not too much has been changed, just bettered. The pool area has been rebuilt, and my ensuite was modern and new, but the room retained a slightly old fashioned feel which I thought was charming. It has a very chilled atmosphere, and decent WiFi throughout, so you can sit in the lounge and watch Netflix on your tablet, or out at the pool. You can run a tab at the bar (a nice touch), and the only slightly negative comment is about the restaurant. Friendly service, lovely setting but by offering a limited provincial menu - served on unheated plates, - we thought it disappointing. But I still really enjoyed two nights there and would happily have stayed for longer. :-)
