La Casa del tío Americano

Stunning location, easy to find as long as walking from far end car park! Angela and Gato are fantastic hosts, very informative and helpful and great with advice on places to go, to walk, and to eat. Our Room 2 has a small but beautiful balcony with stunning views over the river and hills. Comfy bed, good shower. Breakfast choice also excellent. We will return - the town and area are just amazing.

This little hotel, tucked away at the top of Albarracin, is an absolute gem. You won't get 24 hour front desk service but you will get an incredibly warm welcome and utmost care and thoughtful touches. The bedroom we had (4) was at the top with views back across the town and over the terrace. Lovely furnishings, no aircon but nice breeze through open windows sufficed. Fridge in room and a welcome bottle of Prosecco. Nice bathroom with good shower and great toiletries. Owner's brother drove us back down to our car (right at the bottom of town) and directed us to carpark and helped with suitcases. Breakfast is a buffet which has a lovely variety of meats, cheeses, jams and honey, fruit and yoghurt and juices. Good strong coffee is brought out to your table on the terrace with that view. Owner is so delightful, just felt bad my Spanish wasn't good enough to have a proper chat with her! Loved it, and thoroughly recommend if you want personal service and something different from the chain hotel experience. Also - her brother owns a bar at the bottom of town - El gato del Molino - an old mill which is also well worth a visit!
