Liked: Cleanliness
The property was lovely blended in with the surroundings. Had a real Spanish feel about it not modern or false. The furniture and decor was orriginal. Simple room but adequate for my overnight stay. Comfy bed and plenty of hot water in the bath/shower combo. Great balcony had a superb view overlooking the castle an the mountains in the.background. Staff were friendly an helpful. Close to the town square and thd bars an shops Only downside perhaps a kettle in the room to make a coffee or tea. Some people would prefer more amenities but for me it was perfect. Would recommend it to anyone looking for a break living among the local people, proper Spanish. Alora is a lovely town and will definitely be back and stay at hostel Duran.

Perfect for a solo trip!
The staff were very friendly and helpful - and my room had an excellent view! See pictures! I felt very safe, travelling alone. My room had a fridge and a great powerful shower! Very comfortable bed and towels provided. The location is in the old part of town, on a a beautiful street - perfect for exploring. Thankyou Hostal Duran!

Second visit to the Hostal Duran this year and as good as the first time. Anyone looking for basic, clean accommodation can't go wrong with the Hostal Duran. The Centre of town is minutes away with an excellent choice of bars and restaurants. It's also an ideal place to stay if you plan on walking the "El Caminito del Rey", the train station station is around 10 mins walk from the Hostal where you can take the now more frequent trains to El Chorro thanks to Renfe adding extra trains.

Had a fantastic stay at the Hostel Duran. Lovely place in the heart of the old town, bars and restaurants right on your doorstep. We had beautiful views from our terrace to the castle, I suggest booking a room with a balcony/terrace. Rooms are basic (it's a Hostel) but clean, spacious and beds very comfortable. The room was also cleaned daily, the whole property is spotlessly clean. Can't wait to return.

A great little find 😊
A great stay at the beautiful Duran in the hill-top town of Alora. Monica and Paco are excellent hosts who were friendly and helpful. My room lived up to all the good reviews and the view from the balcony spectacular. I would definitely recommend

Great place to stay in Alora
Comfortable room, very clean, with good quality furniture, good facilities and a balcony with a fantastic view across to Alora Castle. Breakfast (served in our room, at a time requested), was lovely and excellent value. The staff were extremely helpful with information and advice and arranged our taxi to Caminito del Rey. Drinks (water, beer etc) are sold in reception at very reasonable prices. Highly recommended!

très bien
hôtel très propre , Avec tout ce qu'il faut dans la chambre y compris un frigo, le seul hic c'est pour se garer , difficile de trouver une place et aussi les rues sont tellement étroites avec des descentes très prononcees.donc faire gaffe quand on conduit.

Prachtige plek in Alora
Heerlijke plek in het mooie Alora. De kamers hebben alles wat je nodig hebt. Op het terras met prachtig zicht op Alora is het heerlijk zitten. Vriendelijk onthaal. Ideaal gelegen voor een wandeling in het mooie dorp en te genieten op een terrasje.

Una pensión típica anclada en el tiempo.
La atención y amabilidad del dueño en recepción, exquisita. La situación también muy buena. La limpieza y la tranquilidad están garantizadas. Sólo el sitema de calefacción es pésimo, hay un aparato de aire acondicionado que no funciona bien, hace mucho ruido, está muy viejo y no llega al baño. Me tocó pasar frío.
