Hotel Balneario de Zújar

If I stumbled across this hotel I wouldn't believe that I could afford to stay there. It's in a stunning location on the shore of Lake Negratin and the hotel doesn't disappoint. Our large room (12) was beautifully decorated and furnished with a huge bed! The bathroom was very clean and modern with a large shower (no bath). We ate breakfast (buffet) and dinner (set menu or a la carte options) in the lovely dining room as there are no other restaurants nearby apart from at the thermal baths. Zujar is about 7km away (down an unlit, gravel road) but the best alternative would be Baza about 20kms. This hotel is very isolated but perfect for relaxing away from it all with a pool, terraces, gardens and a library. There is also a SPA next to the hotel but there are extra charges for this and we did not try it. We walked up to the summit of Jabalcon (1492m) from Zujar, which rewarded us with stunning views of the lake and whole area for miles around! The only negatives were noise during the day from building work in the grounds and room next door but repairs have to done sometime. Note that the hotel is actually called Alcanacia, follow signs for Thermal Baths and Spa Balneario from Zujar. We would definitely return when visiting the area and highly recommend it to you.

This was our second visit to this hotel and we love it. We took our daughter and they loved it as well. The views are to die for. Also tried the spa this time and it was excellent.

Reception staff are wonderful. Paid a little more for a lake facing room and well worth it, views are stunning. Very enjoyable.

Absolutely wonderful one night's stay in this lovely boutique hotel off the beaten track. A comfortable, clean room with a stunning view of the lake made for a relaxing break, and well presented food exceeded our expectations. The pool tiles need some attention but that was the only fault we could find. Special thanks to Pilar in reception and Arturo in the restaurant who both speak English to help overcome our lack of Spanish.

We had a great time, beautiful surroundings, staff very friendly and helpfull, room great and very clean, food delicious, we will definately be coming back.

Lovely hotel, great relaxing location (even if a bit difficult to find) and the staff are superb

Hotel Rural con encanto de arquitectura al estilo de una Hacienda andaluza.Recepción amable y deseosa de complacer.Vistas pre-otoñales preciosas del embalse de Negretín.Restauración digna e interesante.Calidad de servicio estupenda.

Good hotel. Great location with lake views for who loves nature. Nice little pool. Pool towels cost EUR 5 which we felt was a bit exaggerated. Good food at restaurant. Restaurant terrace has amazing views. Definitely have a drink out there. Rooms could be redesigned. Ours also had no special view, maybe the rooms on the other side are nicer. Staff was friendly and helpful.
