Andalucia is a region that has borne the imprint of different cultures and civilisations over the centuries and this is reflected in the diversity of its towns and cities. To visit is to marvel at Arcos perched high on its cliff top eyrie, Ronda split by its plunging gorge, Ecija with its fabulous baroque palaces and Cordoba where the soaring cathedral entombs the Moorish mosque – and of course the most famous, Granada, and its fairytale fortress, the Alhambra. There are beautifully restored old palaces to choose to stay in, or chic town houses all within close proximity of the sights. The order by which the hotels are listed bears no reflection on our preference.
