    Nice property at a very good location.

    The bathrooms could be upgraded, but that's not a big deal as they fit the "cowboy" style of El Rocio.

    The hotel is a typical rural mansion set in the beautiful village of El Rocio. We liked the decor, the ease of check in (self check in), the breakfast options as well as the vicinity to the centre of El Rocio.

    Older style of hotel can produce more noise issues, which we did have, but staff were happy to move us to a quiet room and that was brilliant. Thx

    Great location and very traditional in style. Staff were really helpful and breakfast service good.

    A nice hotel let down by its rooms...
    • Leisure trip

    • Twin Room
    • Stayed 3 nights

    The biggest problem was the room. It was small and contined almost nothing except a couple of beds, a tiny bedside table and an 'ottoman' type of box. There was a decent sized wardrobe, but no other 'surface' on which to place, for example, a laptop computer, and no chairs at all.

    The beds were supremely comfortable, which was a slight surpise given the rooms they were in. The breakfast was good and the staff extremely helpful and friendly.

    The problem vas with the hot water in the shower. From 3 days, when I stayed there, only firs day there were hot water in the shower. I wrote a message and left in the reception, they promised to solve the problem, but finally I had to leave hotel without morning shower. And no sorry, nothing. So ....

    Location, breakfast, room size.

    The shower head needs a little attention as the water didn’t flow from it properly. Lots of nice hot water though.

    We weren’t expecting the town to be so wacky. What a place. We loved the town - it was like being on a real life western film set. We didn’t know what to expect, but it wasn’t that. It was a great experience. We arrived at the hotel and had a fantastic welcome from the guys at the reception. Our room was very large and comfortable. I found the bed to be comfortable, but my husband found the bed uncomfortable. The town was very quiet, so parking was available just outside of the property. The town is close to a large lake where you can view many different types of birds. Just for info - but it didn’t affect us. There are no English tv channels. We used our hdmi cable and were able to watch a film from our laptop. Breakfast was nice, but quite basic. Bread, cheese, ham, donuts, cornflakes and chocolate flakes, fruit and yogurt.

    What a lovely and unique hotel ! The rooms are very nice and cosy, one thing I was missing was maybe a little table, but that's just personal preference :) the bed was very comfy, we had a bit of outside area to relax. The whole hotel and location is just fantastic. El Rocio is like any other Spanish villages I've seen, the atmosphere is just fantastic. Much much recommended ! The hosts were great, attended quickly when I asked for extra towels etc, the breakfast bar is more than enough - fresh breads, cheese, ham, jam etc. Also - a delicious coffee !

    Check-in was awkward, there were no staff at reception and we had to phone someone, with a language barrier this took a little while, but the lady I spoke to was very friendly. It would have been nice if the pool was open.

    Really amazing continental breakfast included, the room was clean, great value for money and the downstairs area was relaxing.

    Despite my asking before confirming booking, and getting assurance I would have an assessable room, due to my mobility issues. I was given a room about as far from the reception as possible and up a long, very ornate spiral staircase. It nearly crucified me getting to and from the room. The bed was so soft it caused me problems. In the end the minuses out numbered the pluses for me. A shame really as it was a nice hotel.

    It was clean and the staff were helpful despite my appalling Spanish. Breakfast was a bit basic but plentiful.

    The bathroom has NO towel hangers on walls at all. What are we to do with wet towels? Not good. One large long pillow to share wasn't good. We sleep differently and so that was a problem.

    Beautiful classic hotel and room. Good breakfast simple but nice. Good bed.

    No drinks available in the hotel during the evening if you are not going out again. There are plenty of bars to go out to.

    El Rocio & the Palacio was a whole new experience of old Spain. The hotel was beautiful and I loved it's rural style. Bedrooms with comfortable beds & great shower rooms were around an external courtyard overlooking a small plunge pool. Traditional breakfast included. The staff were smiling, courteous & very helpful. El Rocio must be seen to. be believed. Flamingos on the lake, cuckoo calling and the wonderful white church dominating the centre of the village surrounded by sandy streets and people riding horses or in their carriages for the Romeria.

    The receptionist is very pleasant and efficient. El Rocío is such an atmospheric town and this place adds to that . The location on the edge of the village next to the Parque National Doñana was a huge plus. Bring your binoculars. So many birds! We came mid May and we're lucky enough to see flamingos. We were so happy to be able to bring our dog too.

    I found the bed go be a little unsubstantial and the mattress was much too soft.

    I don’t tend to spend much time in any accommodation I book, so as long as everything is adequate I rarely have a complaint.
