We stayed with a group of friends to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary 🥂 Although we arrived early we were well looked after by Gavin 🍻 Later on Maria arrived to serve us and Glender cooked the most delicious food 🥰
We had the Morrocan suite and it was spotless, it even came with a complimentary bottle of fizz 🍾
This hotel should be rated higher than a 1⭐
We will definately be back and hopefully do a hike with Gavin and Glenda in the beautiful surrounding countryside 🌳

We really enjoyed our stay at this friendly and welcoming rural hotel The en suite rooms were spacious and spotlessly clean, the owner and staff were helpful and attentive, the food for our evening meal was delicious and when the waitress noted that one of our shark steaks was smaller than the others’, she had asked the kitchen to prepare another one without being prompted!
The hotel was quiet and only about half full, it being prior to the busier summer season, but other guests were friendly as were a few locals who popped in for drinks on their way home from work.
The hotel is perfectly situated in the tiny hamlet of Gebas giving immediate access to one of the best walks in the Sierra Espuna to and back from El Berro through the pine covered hills which incorporates a section of walking through an abandoned railway cutting and tunnel.

Located on the route across the Espuna mountains, with spectacular views across the open countryside, the Hotel La Mariposa provided us with a warm welcome, comfortable accommodation and delicious food throughout our short stay. Whilst there are outdoor activities available in close proximity for those seeking adventure, Hotel La Mariposa is the perfect location for those who simply wish to relax and enjoy the tranquility of the surroundings or to lounge around the pool.
Rooms are spacious, clean and themed individually to a standard that exceeds the 1-star official rating. The menu provides for different tastes and the food is freshly prepared to an excellent standard.
Staff were very welcoming and friendly, ensuring that we were well catered for throughout our stay.
Overall, a very good experience and we certainly intend to return in the future.

We’ve just returned from a two night stay at La Mariposa! The most beautiful, peaceful, relaxed setting. Our room (Africa) was spacious and spotlessly clean with aircon, fan and fridge! Our hosts Gavin, Glenda and Maria were friendly and helpful. The food was excellent! I’m sure we will be back!
