This hotel has a beautiful location. The terrace where we had breakfast had a wonderful view. We also had a great meal in the restaurant at a reasonable price. However, several things were disappointing. The shower was too cold to use - would be OK in the summer, I’m sure. The breakfast was very poor value with no hot food. For the breakfast we paid £40 for 2 adults and 2 kids on Expedia - the hotel said it should have been €9 each but didn’t offer a refund, and that still would have been overpriced. There are a large number of cats around the place, which is cute but proved not terribly hygienic. The TV didn’t work. The shaving mirror in the bathroom was broken. These last 2 things are minor quibbles but for a “4 star” hotel with an 8.8 Expedia rating, it was not what I was expecting. Without those, I would booked a cheaper place. I will be wary of relying so much on ratings/stars in future.

Dreamy location with great facilities. We found the hotel on spec and couldn't believe our luck. It was everything we wanted and more. We spent five days here - hiring bikes from the Hacienda and cycling along the Via Verde, returning for a dip in the beautiful pool, followed by drinks on the terrace which offers panoramic views of olive groves, ending the day with a delicious supper in the restaurant. Heaven!

Lovely property in great location, poor service.

Beautiful building in a stunning location, but falls somewhat short of the expected standards of a 4* hotel at that price range. Reception staff were delightful, but service for our party of eight at dinner was very haphazard. We ordered bottles of wine for the table, and the wine was poured into our glasses from opened bottles and we were charged 'per glass' prices! Very unimpressed at breakfast that tables weren't laid up, and when the waitress brought our coffees she made no attempt to clean rubbish and crumbs from previous people off the table, she just dumped the coffees down and walked off. Not the sort of service I'd expect in a 4* hotel charging Parador prices! One of our group had stayed in the hotel a couple of weeks earlier to check it out, and had enquired about the swimming pool, as all the advertising for the property features the lovely, big, blue pool, and we all particularly wanted to use it, and she had been told that it would definitely be ready for our stay. We were very unimpressed on arrival to find it was a dirty green puddle due to broken equipment. We accept that the pool isn't usually opened until June, but we had asked, and we were expecting to have the use of it. My wife and I used the Arab Baths, and they were excellent, with a charming receptionist and all very clean and thoroughly enjoyable. Overall a pleasant stay, but the serving staff need to raise their game somewhat to justify the prices and the rating.

Disappointing for the money

Poorly run down and overpriced in comparison to say a Paredor. Save your money and stay elsewhere.

A uniqui hotel

A unique hotel with a very friendly and relaxing atmosphere. An oasis of calm. Spent relaxing times wandering around the internal courtyards. A lot of thought and care has been put into the layout, with plants and small fountains etc. We stayed here as a base for hiking in the nearby national park. The small hill town of Zuheros is about half an hours walk away along a wide track. If we are ever in the area again we would definitely stay at this hotel again. Mel & Dot (Scotland)

The quirky Hacienda Minerva

More of a village than a hotel with some great views. Signs for the Hacienda need to be rethought though. Nice.clean sitting room, bedroom and bathroom but lighting was too poor to read by. Perhaps due to its isolation they have to be carefull with electricity Breakfast and dinner restaurant staff are first rate as is the food and wines. We ate there on all four nights. Our bill was incredibly reasonable.

Een hacienda-beleving in een prachtige omgeving.

De lokatie is prachtig en we hadden een mooie grote kamer echter zonder balkon. De mevrouw van het diner en het ontbijtd deed het orima. De ontvangst vinden wij wat koel. Geen info over omgeving oid. Het gehele pand zou wat meer verzorgd moeten worden, zeker de buitenruimtes. Charmant maar wat onverzorgd. En je moet niet allergisch voor katten zijn.

Agréable vue de loin, l’hacienda se rebelle de près assez décatie … Carreaux des fenêtres du salon cassées et réparées avec du papier collant, propreté douteuse … Quand nous sommes arrivés dans notre chambre, les WC n’avaient pas été nettoyés …
