| About Hotel Complejo Turistico La Garganta |
| An old flour factory dating from the year 1827 was totally reformed in order to offer the visitor all the amenities and comfort of a modern hotel.
The cozy rooms, mixing their decor with traditional elements and minute details of design, all have a small living area and views of the natural surroundings of the 'Desfiladero de los Gaitanes' – a beautiful gorge. Some of the rooms have two floors, making use of the enormous interior height of the old building. The familiar ambience is completed by a restaurant, specializing in local and traditional dishes, combining them with innovative creations, delicious home-made desserts and an exquisite wine selection. This hotel is the perfect establishment for any fan of wild and savage landscapes and outdoor activities, it doesn't matter if they are exciting and adventurous or more relaxed, without forgetting well-being and comfort, most important for complete relaxation and rest.
The surrounding landscapes, which filled the King Alfons XIII with enthusiasm, when he visited 'El Chorro' in order to admire the technological achievements of his time, the construction of the first electricity production centre of Andalusia, as well as the construction of the beautiful nearby reservoirs, which are the base of the electricity production and assure at the same time the rich fauna and flora of this protected area. In former times 3000 inhabitants transported the necessary material over a narrow path, partially cut out of the rock, nowadays known as the 'Camino del Rey' (path of the king). Alfons XIII insisted in walking down the same way as the workers each day, admiring the magnificent views. Today this region is internationally well-known for its climbing facilities for all levels and its wide range of outdoor activities, attracting visitors from such far away countries like Finland and Japan, in order to enjoy surroundings where you can still observe eagles, Royal vultures, cabra monteses (the Spanish ibex) and many other animals in danger of extinction. The incomparable region 'Desfiladero de los Gaitanes', the Arabic ruins of 'Bobastro' and the cave 'Cueva de Ardales' are just a short distance from the hotel.
