HOTEL ALAVERA DE LOS BAÑOS €€

www.alaveradelosbanos.com
;
Hoyo San Miguel; s/d incl breakfast
€70/95; )
A magical hotel with style echoes of the Arab baths next door, this
one-time tannery looks like it was decorated by a departing Moor, with a flower-filled
patio and pool. The sultan-sized baths are carved from a type of stucco, and their
pink tinge is due to natural pigments.

JARDÍN DE LA MURALLA €€
( 952 87 27 64;
www.jardindelamuralla.com
;
Calle Espíritu Santo 13; s/d incl break-
fast €85/95; )
Relatively new on the hotel scene but actually dating from
the Moorish era, this unique private house has a huge terraced garden overlooking
the
serranía
. Six rooms are bedizened with antiques, but it's neither staid nor
cluttered.
Hotel
PARADOR DE RONDA €€€
( 952 87 75 00;
www.parador.es
; Plaza de España; r €160-171; )
Acres
of shining marble and deep-cushioned furniture give this modern
parador
a certain
appeal. The terrace is a wonderful place to drink in views of the gorge with your cof-
fee or wine, especially at night.
