What guests think

At Hotel Tugasa Arco de la Villa, travellers praise the breathtaking hilltop views and convenient proximity to Zahara’s castle and town centre, alongside generally comfortable rooms and friendly staff, though noise from the dining room and thin walls are noted.

Service is mostly helpful, though some guests mention impersonal reception and limited English. Breakfast ranges from simple to good, and dinner opinions are mixed. Parking can be limited or tricky to locate, Wi‑Fi may be weak, and a few maintenance issues and the lack of outdoor spaces are mentioned alongside generally clean rooms. Expect a scenic, simple stay suited to exploring the village and surroundings.

This was a great hotel to say in. There was plenty of parking when we went. The breakfast was good and dinning room has great views as well. Staff is friendly and always available to help. The town center is a short 50 meters away and the castle is 20 meteres away. Very comfortable and clean rooms, we would stay here again for sure when exploring the area.

This hotel is probably the highest building on a mountaintop city. Staff was excellent, food was good, and views were breathtaking. Parking is avail in moderation. But like a lotnof historic Europe, it is not for the faint of heart. The road is only wide enough for one way traffic and alternates directions with the use of a traffic light. Rooms are completely adequate, but the overall hotel is a little sterile. Everything is concrete and everything is painted white. Not the most cozy, but close to everything including the castle, museum, shopping and dining. Did I mention views?

Ett mindre rum med fantastisk utsikt, lyhört och lite sådär i badrummet. Frukosten var knapphändig och lunchen vi försökte äta gjorde att vi inte beställde mer mat på stället. Den soppan man serverade var mest varmvatten med lite riskorn man råkat tappa i soppan, inte den lokala soppan vi föreställde oss enligt menyn.

This property sits overlooking a lake tucked into a mountain. Small but very nice. Staff are all helpful and accommodating. Only downside is if you have a room on the second floor it’s directly under the dinning area and can be a little noisy during dinner.

Wonderful view from all the rooms and the dining room. Freshly renovated hotel. Good new mattresses. Courteous staff. High up, so only 2 minutes walk to the village centre and to the entrance to the medieval fort. The construction is basically of concrete stuck to an almost vertical hillside. The dining room, entrance and reception are at the top, the rooms below. It was very quiet in our room until people started moving their chairs in the dining room at breakfast.

Dinner was good with plenty of food. The breakfast was better, with excellent coffee.

Dinner was good with plenty of food. The breakfast was better, with excellent coffee.

Fantastic location and view! Arriving by car was a little confusing because the primary route was closed. Eventually was found it. The employee at check in was not helpful and only provided partial information. I think he was busy and a bit overwhelmed, because later in the evening his mood was much improved. Dinner was good with plenty of food. The breakfast was better, with excellent coffee.

Sehr schön und zentral gelegen, toller Blick auf den Stausee und die Landschaft, ordentliche ausreichend große Zimmer, Frühstück eher dürftig, hat mit den Bildern in der Beschreibung nichts zu tun.

This was a great hotel to say in. There was plenty of parking when we went. The breakfast was good and dinning room has great views as well. Staff is friendly and always available to help. The town center is a short 50 meters away and the castle is 20 meteres away. Very comfortable and clean rooms, we would stay here again for sure when exploring the area.

Ett mindre rum med fantastisk utsikt, lyhört och lite sådär i badrummet. Frukosten var knapphändig och lunchen vi försökte äta gjorde att vi inte beställde mer mat på stället. Den soppan man serverade var mest varmvatten med lite riskorn man råkat tappa i soppan, inte den lokala soppan vi föreställde oss enligt menyn.

This hotel is probably the highest building on a mountaintop city. Staff was excellent, food was good, and views were breathtaking. Parking is avail in moderation. But like a lotnof historic Europe, it is not for the faint of heart. The road is only wide enough for one way traffic and alternates directions with the use of a traffic light. Rooms are completely adequate, but the overall hotel is a little sterile. Everything is concrete and everything is painted white. Not the most cozy, but close to everything including the castle, museum, shopping and dining. Did I mention views?
