ALEGRIA Bodega Real Hotel

Service from Paco. Luis, Juan and Anna was exceptional in the restaurant. Reception staff could not do enough to help us too
We found the food in the restaurant to be interesting both to look at and to taste. We looked forward to our meal times.

The room was very comfortable and practical with an interesting balcony looking into the internal courtyard where you could eat. The inside restaurant was a fascinating room reflecting the bodega history of the building.

The hotel is about a 20 minutes walk to the centre of town and tourist information which gave some issues as my wife has some difficulty walking that far. However, the train station is only a few minutes away from the hotel and many bus services operate from there too. We found the Linea 3 circular route bus to be a great help to reach the beaches and sites in the town.

Very good service. Thank you senior Luis and Senior Guillermo for taking care of me. Very nice food. I'll be back ❤️

Lovely traditional Spanish style hotel at a reasonable price. Staff very good. Room clean, well appointed and good air con as very hot when we were there. Pool on the roof more of a plunge pool not for swimming but cool. Could have done with more shade up there. Breakfast choice very good. Evening meal very good to start with. Quality food and very reasonably priced drinks. However, as the week went on certain items were not available. 7 items missing one evening. Our last night even the Mediterranean salad was off! Had had this previously and it was lovely. The staff were way overstretched when functions were on. It seemed to us that any function took priority of service away from residents. We had three functions while we were there which we were told was unusual. The last one was a wedding in the central courtyard in the evening with very loud music. There was nowhere to escape to. In our opinion the hotel is not big enough to have functions and residents at the same time unless the residents don't mind noise and a lesser service. We loved the hotel. It was everything we expected. The only two issues were lack of items on the menu and noise and reduced service and facilities due to functions.

Just returned from a weeks holiday. The hotel is a former Sherry Bodega and as an old building has it quirks which you may not like if you are into modern hotels, but to me added to its charm. The rooms are set around a central courtyard and rooms look down onto it. The rooms are large with a comfortable bed and sofa to relax on. Toiletries are provided. Plenty of opening windows as well as aircon. The staff are friendly and generally efficient. Preventing this being five stars is the menu. We were there on a half board basis with Jet2 holidays and as such the menu was restricted unless you wanted to pay a supplement. Each night at least a third of the menu was unavailable, after our rep raised this issue it was supposed to have improved but didn't. I found out it was not because of a lack of ingredients, just the kitchen could not be bothered.

Just returned from a weeks holiday at this hotel. It is a former Sherry Bodega and therefore historic set around a central courtyard with rooms overlooking it.

The rooms are large with a big comfy bed and a sofa to relax on. Cleaned every day.

The staff were excellent, friendly and helpful.

The hotel is handily located 2 mins from the train station and a short walk to the town and all attraction.

Stopping this being five stars was the menu, we were on a half board basis and as such the menu was partially restricted and on every night at least a third of it was unavailable, normally the same things, there is a point where you get sick of the same things and we are out. Vegetables also seemed to be non-existent.

On the Sunday they had a wedding in the courtyard which ment that it was not available to paying guests.

We stayed here for a week via a Jet2holidays package and paid for breakfast as additional charge when booking. The breakfasts were good with plenty of choice and well worth the extra. Particularly good were the chocolate muffins and individual kellogs cerial boxes. The hotel itself is a beautiful converted winery and is decorated sympathetically to reflect it's history and architecture which gives it a very unique and peaceful atmosphere. The rooms are similarly decorated in a traditional style and are spacious with plenty of storage space. The new rooftop pool was a great addition especially in the glorious weather we were lucky to have all week. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful each time we asked for local knowledge. We would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone and would love to return someday, so thank you to all the staff at the Alegria Bodega Real (including the excellent cleaning staff) for making our holiday so memorable 😀

Paco, Luis and Guillerno all gave excellent service and very friendly. Great food and fabulous wine. Reception staff were very knowledgeable. Rooms great size with very comfy beds.

We stayed one night at the Alegria Bodega Real in Cardiz as we had booked for dinner at a nearby restaurant. Arrived just after 2pm after a short drive from our base at Marbella. Not wanting to ruin our appetite at dinner, we decided to have a light lunch at the Restaurante La Vina in the hotel. It's a very charming & clean restaurant with a good menu of food choices. We had the Hake with Thai vegetables & Prawns & we had good service from Paco 👍 It was very good & if you're ever at this part of the world, do drop by to try the food here 👍😁

Great Andalucian setting and location, fantastic food and excellent service especially from Paco and Luis Recommend 100%.
