Ronda incorporates a four-star boutique hotel

Ronda now boasts a new four-star boutique hotel located one kilometer from the urban center and integrated within the same complex as the Lunares winery.

The facilities, now managed by local firm Morales & Arnal, include 9 rooms of various categories and two individual villas. In addition, they feature a restaurant, swimming pool, landscaped areas, and a pavilion for events. The rooms will be marketed at an average price of 130 euros, although this will depend on the category and season.

“We want this to be a hotel not only for tourists; we want it to be the hotel for the people of Ronda,” stated José Morales, CEO of the business group, which thus adds its second hotel in the city of Tajo. Specifically, they already manage the three-star Hotel Palacio de la Duquesa in the historic center.

The launch of the new hotel will create 16 direct jobs, bringing the group's total number of employees to 52, including those managing tourist apartments in Ronda and Estepona.

Regarding the renovation of the facilities, the company has invested 500,000 euros to refurbish rooms and common areas, as the hotel had been closed for some time and required significant updates.

Additionally, its restaurant, which will operate under the name El Palmeral, will be open to the general public, not just hotel guests. Similarly, the terrace area will also be open for those who wish to enjoy a coffee or a drink.

The municipal tourism delegate, Ángel Martínez, highlighted the importance of this new investment, noting also that it is a local company betting on its city.

Martínez also mentioned that the city has seen a 17% increase in overnight stays, making it the second destination in Andalusia with the highest growth.

Regarding visitors, during the past year, the city of Tajo has surpassed two million visitors, a significant figure for a small inland city.
