We stayed here for a week via a Jet2holidays package and paid for breakfast as additional charge when booking. The breakfasts were good with plenty of choice and well worth the extra. Particularly good were the chocolate muffins and individual kellogs cerial boxes. The hotel itself is a beautiful converted winery and is decorated sympathetically to reflect it's history and architecture which gives it a very unique and peaceful atmosphere. The rooms are similarly decorated in a traditional style and are spacious with plenty of storage space. The new rooftop pool was a great addition especially in the glorious weather we were lucky to have all week. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful each time we asked for local knowledge. We would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone and would love to return someday, so thank you to all the staff at the Alegria Bodega Real (including the excellent cleaning staff) for making our holiday so memorable 😀

“Fabulous”

Paco, Luis and Guillerno all gave excellent service and very friendly. Great food and fabulous wine. Reception staff were very knowledgeable. Rooms great size with very comfy beds.

“Superb traditional hotel but has a few issues.”

Lovely traditional Spanish style hotel at a reasonable price. Staff very good. Room clean, well appointed and good air con as very hot when we were there. Pool on the roof more of a plunge pool not for swimming but cool. Could have done with more shade up there. Breakfast choice very good. Evening … more

Lovely traditional Spanish style hotel at a reasonable price. Staff very good. Room clean, well appointed and good air con as very hot when we were there. Pool on the roof more of a plunge pool not for swimming but cool. Could have done with more shade up there. Breakfast choice very good. Evening meal very good to start with. Quality food and very reasonably priced drinks. However, as the week went on certain items were not available. 7 items missing one evening. Our last night even the Mediterranean salad was off! Had had this previously and it was lovely. The staff were way overstretched when functions were on. It seemed to us that any function took priority of service away from residents. We had three functions while we were there which we were told was unusual. The last one was a wedding in the central courtyard in the evening with very loud music. There was nowhere to escape to. In our opinion the hotel is not big enough to have functions and residents at the same time unless the residents don't mind noise and a lesser service. We loved the hotel. It was everything we expected. The only two issues were lack of items on the menu and noise and reduced service and facilities due to functions.

“Great hotel but avoid half board”

Just returned from a weeks holiday. The hotel is a former Sherry Bodega and as an old building has it quirks which you may not like if you are into modern hotels, but to me added to its charm.

Just returned from a weeks holiday. The hotel is a former Sherry Bodega and as an old building has it quirks which you may not like if you are into modern hotels, but to me added to its charm. The rooms are set around a central courtyard and rooms look down onto it. The rooms are large with a comfortable bed and sofa to relax on. Toiletries are provided. Plenty of opening windows as well as aircon. The staff are friendly and generally efficient. Preventing this being five stars is the menu. We were there on a half board basis with Jet2 holidays and as such the menu was restricted unless you wanted to pay a supplement. Each night at least a third of the menu was unavailable, after our rep raised this issue it was supposed to have improved but didn't. I found out it was not because of a lack of ingredients, just the kitchen could not be bothered.
