Hostal Altamar
Family run Hostal Altamar is our pick for this year for
unbeatable
value. Only 100m from the
beach
but right in the heart of the historic old town, surrounded by
cobbled lanes, enchanting shops and tapas bars.
Highly recommended for riders who aren't looking for large hotel facilities (Spanish hostals tend to have well defined characters and are usually very popular with Spanish tourists. They are usually family run small hotels with individual style, but lack facilities such as TV rooms, public bars, lifts and pools).
Our
standard accommodation
for our riding holidays here is bed, breakfast
basis and evening
meals.
Breakfasts are taken in the charming breakfast room and coffee
bar - evening meal is at the restaurant opposite.
17 well appointed comfortable rooms - available as singles, doubles or triple rooms, all equipped with en suite bathrooms, TV, air conditioning or fans / heating. There is also one family accommodation layout with a double bed room and separate twin bedded room.
