La Alquería

Loved it here, this is a great small hotel in a lovely little village about 25 minutes from Alcaniz.||Jose and Clara are excellent hosts who really make you feel at home. Jose is so helpful and wants to make sure your stay is the best it can be and Clara cooks the most fantastic meals, the presentation of all dishes was exceptional, everything we ate was worthy of a Michelin star restaurant. 3 course dinner with bottle water, wine and coffee is 23 euros per person. The rooms are lovely bright, modern and very clean with an ample sized bathroom. The surrounding villages are definitely worth a visit. We will return

Second visit to Jose & Clara and they made us very welcome again. The food and wine were superb and Jose made our meals a great experience. Clara's cooking was delicious and her four desserts to share was a lovely end to each of our 3 evenings. Rafales is a beautiful village and being part of something from the 1570,s is amazing. The people of the village are very friendly and the bar next door is very atmospheric. The area of Aragon is very beautiful and a hidden gem.

My wife and I stayed here in spring this year. The medieval village is beautiful, but this tiny hotel was a highlight of the trip. The owners Jose and Clara were wonderful hosts and the food cooked by Clara and the wine chosen by Jose were as good as I've eaten in many expensive London restaurants. Jose was an enthusiastic and knowledgable tour guide, recommending places to visit in the area. I can't recommend this hotel highly enough, for the price, quality of food, location and the welcome we received it was an exceptional bargain. I would stay there again without hesitation.

We arrived on 3 motorcycles, wet and tired, to be met by Jose, with a beaming smile and warm welcome. The hotel is off the beaten track in a small, ancient Spanish village reached by winding, hairpin roads and through stunning countryside. The hotel is superb, modern and up to date. Our rooms - the family suite of two bedrooms and a shared bathroom - were amazing, smart, well-equipped and comfortable. Clara's cooking is the best - the pig cheeks were fantastic, and the wine chosen by Jose just kept flowing. We stayed for an extra night and spent a day following the route Jose gave us of the Teruel area, which should not be missed, it is one of the most beautiful and historic parts of Spain. Our second evening was one we shared with the village, celebrating a First Communion in the square outside the Hotel which was wonderful. ||A jewel in Spain - thank you Jose and Clara, you were the highlight of our 3 week trip!!

We booked after reading the reviews and were very pleased we did. A delightful hotel in a lovely village. The hosts were brilliant nothing too much bother food excellant. Breakfast was freshly cooked even the empanadillas. Couldn't do it justice and they even asked if we wanted to take some of the lovely cakes with us en route.

This small hotel is very welcoming. Jose was extremely helpful pointing us in the right direction of all the sightseeing that there is in the Matarrana region ( the "Tuscany "of Spain) The room was very clean and comfortable. Clara's cooking was very imaginative and excellent. We really enjoyed our stay.

This was our second visit to Jose & Clara's wonderful little hotel. We only stayed for 1 night on our first trip and vowed that we would return to this beautiful part of hidden Spain. we very glad we did as there are lovely little towns to explore and the countryside is wonderful. Clara's cooking was exceptional again and I am now trying to lose the extra pounds I gained on our trip! This time we stayed for 2 nights and Jose will do everything he can to make your stay as comfortable as possible, even mending a broken wing mirror on our hire car! if you are anywhere near this area on your travels make sure you stay here!

I don't know where to start, its a fabulous small hotel owed by Jose and Clara. the rooms and facilities are great. the food is all home made and worth driving miles for. it was so good I asked Clara to marry me by Jose said no. Jose explained in great detail all about the area, Both Jose and Clara were great hosts assisted by young Pablo. we will be back

Lovely small hotel in a beautiful village. Very personal service and the best food you can imagine. Dont miss breakfast and diner! We have been traveling there for the last 5 years and it is always worth the journey!
