If not for the train disruption, my stay at Duran Hostel would have been perfect! The small room was a perfect fit for a solo traveler. It takes 25 minutes to walk from the station to the hostel because it is uphill, and around 15 minutes to return to the station downhill; this was perfectly suitable for me as I enjoy walking. The town is beautiful with a warm, friendly neighborhood, and you can sit at LA SEDE to watch the clouds drift by while enjoying Spanish red wine. The hostel staff are helpful and friendly, and I would definitely recommend their single rooms to any solo traveler. I was pleasantly surprised to find a powerful shower and a bathtub. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. I have no complaints about the decor, as it is a hostel after all! ​However, the train disruption made my journey quite difficult. There were limited trains from Málaga Central to Álora, but I was aware of this before I made my booking and had planned well in advance. Unfortunately, the train terminated at Cártama, and I needed to take a replacement bus, which turned a half-hour journey into an hour. Even more unfortunately, the train to El Chorro was also cancelled, and the replacement bus departure time was too late for me to start my adventure at the Caminito del Rey. ​I want to take this opportunity to thank the Renfe staff; without their help, I don't think I could have completed my journey. Renfe even arranged a taxi to take me to El Chorro so that I wouldn't miss my adventu

Clean, basic, but adequate for my needs. Fridge was noisy & too big for the room. No kettle in room. Breakfast on request. Nice view of the castle from my balcony.

Lovely place in a lovely town, you don’t get closer to centrum.

Tiny and cold room. The aircondition that can heat the room is old and noisy. Also, it takes 10 minutes before you get hot water in the shower. How can this hotel be rated so high?

Right in the central alora! The room needs little tlc and they need to be sure about where we can park and where we can’t that would help the guests

Friendly, kind staff. Spotlessly clean room, great location.

Es la segunda vez q me hospedo aquí y la verdad q me ha encantado, siempre q vaya a este bonito pueblo me hospedaré aquí❤️❤️

Tres bon Accueil, hotel propre, restaurants proche de l'hotel nous recommandons ce lui

Estuvimos muy agusto. Es tranquilo y está en el centro

El personal super agradable, el desayuno muy económico y muy bien de alimentos. Todo muy limpio La primera noche un señor con los ronquidos me despertó pero eso el alojamiento no tiene la culpa. Bien ubicado, de todo cerca. Genial

This hostal is in the city center, the staff was amazing, the facilities are very clean and maintained. The room had a small fridge and air conditioner and the room and bathroom were spotless! The only downside was parking, however there’s a public parking lot about a quarter a mile away.

Nice place

Good hotel, calm locality and close to big centers

An excellent stay at the Hostal Duran. The place is clean and well manged by the lovely owners and staff. The Hostal is centrally located with good public transport links, the bus stop for the Caminito del Rey is only a hundred metres away and the train station is around 15 minutes walk or a bus from the same above stop, all restaurants and bars are on your doorstep. A recommendation, choose a room with a panoramic view (Terrace), the views to the castle are wonderful.

Everything was just perfect .. Thank you 🙏

En enkelt overnatning på en gennemrejse. Venlig personale og en dejlig situation midt i byen, med spisesteder. Vi er meget tilfreds.

Qualità prezzo perfetta!

Un'ottima sistemazione nel pittoresco paesino di Álora, in Andalusia. Centrale, l'edificio risente dell'età (niente ascensore) ma questo fa parte del suo charme. Colazione servita sul terrazzino della camera con vista super-panoramica del borgo e del castello. Parcheggio disponibile in strada, se affollato c'è un grande parcheggio in fondo al paese. Strade ripide e pittoresche, non adattissimo a chi avesse problemi di mobilità: per tutti gli altri, consigliato!

What a gem Just loved every thing and every minute about this stay 20/20 Could retire there
