The four-pearl Hotel Catalonia Reina Victoria Wellness & Spa is situated in a residential area of Ronda, a short walk from the city center. Although the building dates back to 1906, the hotel feels decidedly modern, owing largely to a 2012 renovation. This is particularly apparent in the 95 rooms and suites, all of which have sleek decor and modern amenities; many also have furnished terraces with beautiful countryside views. On-site features are geared toward wellness, including a lovely spa with hydrotherapy pools and a Turkish bath, a decent fitness center, and large grounds with an outdoor pool (though it's only open seasonally). Travelers looking to be even closer to the action should consider Parador de Ronda, though it lacks a spa.

The three-pearl Hotel La Fuente De La Higuera is a quiet retreat with beautiful grounds and 11 lovely rooms geared toward couples traveling to Spain’s Andalucia region. Breathtaking views and friendly, personal service are the hallmarks of this boutique property. Amenities are limited, but lounging by the beautiful pool and enjoying delicious food at the restaurant are generally enough for most guests to have a relaxing stay. Beautiful rooms enhance the experience with an elegant blend of classic and contemporary decor. The lack of in-room mini-fridges and the 20-minute drive into town are inconveniences, however. Hotel Catalonia Reina Victoria Wellness & Spa is a beautiful, contemporary alternative in the town of Ronda, but it lacks the personal touch and gorgeous surroundings of this hotel.

Parador de Ronda is a three-and-a-half-pearl property right in the heart of the city, housed in what once served as Ronda's town hall. The 78 rooms here are contemporary and light, with polished wood floors and furnished balconies, many with beautiful views of the valley or the adjacent New Bridge. Though three meeting rooms and free Wi-Fi appeal to business travelers, the hotel is largely geared toward tourists. Other features include a restaurant specializing in Andalusian cuisine and a small outdoor pool, but guests might find the lack of a gym and spa off-putting. Travelers may prefer the nearby Hotel Catalonia Reina Victoria Wellness & Spa, which has a spa and fitness center, plus lower rates.
