The hotel staff was friendly and accommodating, and the reception area and lobby were welcoming and comfortable. the hotel offered a great range of facilities and services for families, ensuring that our stay was enjoyable and memorable.
My children wanted more games and activities in the playroom.

It was in the remote location on the outskirts of the town with a 15' minute walk to the centre.

Impeccably clean quirky accommodation with magnificent location to the "main" area and VERY HELPFUL stuff. A wide range of food in the hotel, in-house restaurant. Really good stay, as always.

Exceptional service! The bathroom was spacious and had good shower pressure. The breakfast was delicious and had a wide variety of options. The hotel is located in a peaceful area, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The pool was clean and we had it all to ourselves. The staff were friendly and helpful, even helping us book horse riding activities in advance. The horses were well-cared for and we felt safe during the ride. I highly recommend this hotel for a peaceful and enjoyable stay.

The complex is very beautiful, the bungalows are very tastefully furnished. The bathroom is especially well designed. Nice pool area!
In the bathroom it smelled unpleasantly like drain although everything was very clean.

Cortijo El Sotillo is situated on the outskirts of San Jose, in the middle of nature. Quiet rooms with a small fridge and a terrace that cannot be seen from the neighbouring rooms. It was very positive to have a free parking directly in the inner courtyard, which is also sufficient if the hotel is fully occupied. Very nice pool. Great lounge that reminds you of the time when the film "A Fistful of Dollar" was shot there. All we need are the cowboys and the Indians. We would book there again at any time.

I absolutely loved the traditional Spanish décor of this hotel. The rustic charm and warm colors made me feel right at home. The common areas were spacious and comfortable, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the beautiful surroundings. As a senior woman, I appreciated how accessible the hotel was. I had no trouble navigating the corridors and the staff was always available to assist me.
The only thing I would ask for a better vacation for senior people is for the staff to be a bit more attentive. The children working there seemed more interested in chatting amongst themselves rather than attending to the guests.

The former movie set from "A Handful of Dollars". Very nice complex a little outside of San José - small but nice... Quiet, nice and attentive staff, very restful.
The hotel itself is very well maintained and clean, but the extensive outdoor facilities require a little more attention and care.

The hotel looks like an Italo-Western. The rooms are all completely separate in individual bungalows. It is rather a bungalow complex, which in itself looks strong in the desert landscape. The hotel is surrounded by prairie and it is extremely quiet and simply beautifully situated. To the city on foot it takes perhaps 5 minutes, to the natural beaches with the car also around 5-10 minutes, depending on to which one you are heading. I can recommend the hotel and would book it again.

We got great value for our money at Cortijo El Sotillo! The room was huge, clean, and had classic Cortijo doors & windows. The pool overlooking the desert/mountains was absolutely stunning. The staff were excellent, with the barman/waiter being really sweet and even making us a delicious Negroni. And let me tell you, being a vegetarian/vegan in rural Spain wasn't a problem here - the food was well thought out and presented. We also loved the hotel's connection to Spaghetti Westerns, which we're big fans of!
The breakfast experience could have been better. We wished there were coffee and tea facilities in the room, especially since we were adjacent to the pool.

We had an amazing time backpacking in this beautiful location. There were great hiking trails that headed north with breathtaking views over the sea. The hotel is located right on the waterfront, just a short walk from the beaches and not too far from the bustling San Jose centre. The room was clean and spacious, with a comfortable bed and a modern bathroom. The breakfast was delicious, with a variety of fresh fruits, cereals, and pastries on offer. the pool area was lovely and provided a relaxing escape.
There were some issues with the service in the restaurant, which could have been better.
