Nothing

Property is in a very good location, we had a very nice room with en-suite bathroom. Very nicely decorated and very clean. The beds & pillows were ever comfortable. The owners of the hotel & staff were exceptionally, kind & friendly. We were given excellent tips & advice about our inward travels. We would stay again & highly recommend this hotel

Upon arrival one has to telephone or WhatsApp in order to check-in. The owner/ manager then comes to let you in and give you keys. This includes a key to the internal entrance door which is permanently locked. So every time you go out or in the door has to be unlocked and relocked. There is no lift, maybe unsurprising in the circumstances, but the stairs, although straight, are not easy.

This is a special and different hotel as, perhaps the name suggests. The welcome, despite any difficulty (see Dislikes), was exceptionally friendly. The position is in a small rural town with few facilities, but nonetheless interesting. The garden of the actual hotel is available to relax in and just to visit.

Staff could have been a little more communicative.

Lovely peaceful location with an interesting history. We were travelling from Santander to Malaga so a very convenient and straightforward stop over for our first night. Staff very nice but quite reserved, waitress was friendly though. The €12 evening meal was excellent. Breakfast was also good. Beautiful view of the lake from our room.

Montemolin is a quiet and relatively remote town with few (tourist) amenities or places to eat in the evening.

I was travelling the Ruta de la Plata (N-630) on my motorbike and Montemolin was at the end of that day's route, so booked into the hotel Casa Rural El Aguila. So glad that I did. I was met and shown around this converted and modernised traditional house by the owner, who lives with his family in a house to the rear and shares a lovely courtyard, garden and swimming pool with the hotel guests. My room was clean, comfortable and well appointed, with good wifi, a Juliet balcony to the street and with views of the Castillo de Montemolin. The hotel provided a cool and comfortable lounge area, outdoor seating under lemon trees and there was an honesty bar with cold drinks. Breakfast in the morning was very good and plentiful. The owner also runs an off-road motorbike school and quad bike hire company and is very motorbike rider guest friendly - highly recommended.

Had to go into town for dinner, not provided at the hotel although breakfast was.

Beautiful property with orange groves on a terrace. Honesty bar was well equipped.

Only one bar open in the village for food..but it was a great village pub!

Wonderful welcome and support from the family breakfast, fires, spa bath and stylish house

Nothing. Everything was perfect!

What a lovely place and what lovely people. We were received with such warmth and told to feel at home. The hotel is beautiful. At breakfast Maria had a little fright as what to do with two vegans. But as soon as she recovered from the surprise of no chicken, no meat, no fish, no eggs, no milk she disappeared into her kitchen and came out with a feast. Thank you for a perfect visit! For those wondering about Carpark. The hotel is in a little very safe village and there is ample free and safe Carpark in front of the hotel! I would love to visit in winter when the lounge’s wood fire is going. It must be super cosy there in the winter…

The hosts are very friendly and kind, they made us feel at home. The all concept of the house is very nice and works very well, even more all the village people are very nice and welcoming. We recommend bar central (in front of the farmácia) to eat, the montado de lombo made by the lady owner is very nice 😊

It can be quite daunting to navigate in the town for someone who isn’t used to such narrow streets but we managed ok and the locals are very considerate.

The hosts were very helpful and kind. The continental breakfast was very good.

Maybe more facilities in bathroom eg, hooks for towels/robes and more shelf space. A few more coat hangers

nice to have a pool and outside space to enjoy

Breakfast could have been a bit better, nothing special really. Furniture a bit dated, especially the bathroom. Rooms not completely soundproof, but still relaxing.

Lovely little town. Very central location. Not hard to park. Lovely staff. Comfy bed.

I was expecting a rural, farm-style house but it is a village building with a small garden (the main door is in what seemed to be one of the main roads of the village, bur the village is very small, so that wasn't a problem). The room was very cold, even with the AC in the max (the extra blankets were very helpful). Actually, the house seemed cold in general, very good for a Summer day, but not for the Winter.

The place was relatively quiet.

Not clear signage to find at night. very little parking.

Quiet village, in walking distance of food.
