Hotel Nueva Allandesa — Restaurant in Allande

You have to understand that this is in the countryside and can’t be compared to a city hotel. What it lacks in sophistication it has in an authentic cosy atmosphere.|my bedroom was compact with a small double bed, a table and chair and the room was set on the diagonal. It is not suitable for tall people as it is set in the eaves. The bathroom is tiny and in both rooms care is needed to avoid hitting your head.

The central heating comes on and off at preset times. The weather was cold (few degrees above freezing) and wet. Returning to the hotel in late afternoon after a relatively tough 20km hike through the mountains, my room was ice cold. Awful. ||The only redeeming feature is the restaurant. The host was charming, funny and attentive and the food (pilgrim's menu) was wholesome, hot and tasty (and...
