El Castillo de las Guardas Hotel Guide - Hotels with Pool in El Castillo de las Guardas, Andalusia

"It was a catfish hotel. Looks nice when you enter but when you get to the rooms it’s very outdated. It’s liveable for a couple of days if you’re not staying in the room all day, there were no room amenities such as kettle etc so it was difficult travelling with a baby and staying here. Parking you have to pay for and staff were abit boring. We didn’t have breakfast because it was t included although it also didn’t look appealing. Room overall was clean. "

"The hotel was in very poor shape and we decided we could not stay at all - we had booked and prepaid for 2 nights. We were refunded. "

"Our room was great except for the lighting which could be improved. In particular there is a desk and tea making area in a dark corner under the stairs and there is no light over the desk. I would have liked more power sockets near the bed, The bathroom was good except that there was a lot of space wasted on having two sinks and yet there was no flat surface to put anything on. We moved a bedside table from upstairs to use. We liked the secure parking and enjoyed the breakfast. the restaurant doesn't open until 8.30 pm which I know is not unusual in Spain but it would have been nice to be able to get something to eat in the bar. The hotel is convenient for the town and for going out walking which was our reason for being there."

"Undoubtedly the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. We were a family of 4, with small children. The family room has a sketchy and a wobly set of stairs that brings to the Mezzanine where the bathroom is. I was terrified of my kids falling from the stairs. We had to abandon our reservatiom to seek for a place where at least we could sleep in. The beds were god awful, they only gave us one pillow, and when I asked for more, The rude staff member said they were fully booked and only had two of the worst pillows I ever had the unfortunate privilege of using. They advertised a restaurant and room service, but they don't bring the food to the room, nor do you have access to a menu. You have to go downstairs and order and pick up the order. We spent 2x more than what we paid originally to get emergency accommodations. My son called this place a Bootel, cause he said it was Boooooooooo. And I agree. Also, there are no good restaurants nearby, it is in the middle of nowhere. Who did they bribe to get this 4 star classification, that was money well paid, cause I wouldnt give it 1 star, let along 4. I could keep going, but my fingers hurt of how angrily I'm typing this. STAY AWAY FROM THIS TRAP!!!"
