Minas de Riotinto, Andalusia hotel rooms at the Independent

"A hidden gem off the tourist routes but close enough to get to all the beautiful towns of the Sierra de Aracena. The room was spacious and clean. The cafeteria downstairs had good food and drink. The staff were very welcoming. Remember to take a swimming cap if you want to use the indoor pool."

"This is a beautiful property, both the grounds and the room. We were welcomed and shown around upon arrival. They have a wonderful breakfast that is included. There are walking trails close by and one leads into the town. We visited the restaurants and the plaza has the Fuente de los 12 Canos. I would highly recommend this as a getaway; very peaceful."

"Wonderful pleasant staff."

"This place was absolutely gorgeous. One of the most beautiful locations I have ever been to. We are on a road trip, and sadly only stayed one night. We will return and spend much more time here. The place is charming. The people amazing! Very happy. "

"Very peaceful stay in the hills. Nice small villages/town nearby for returns etc. very relaxing "
