Localization

Arcos there is a 20 minutes drive to Jerez, a 60 minutes drive to Cádiz
and a 75 minutes drive to Sevilla. There are international flights from
Jerez and Sevilla airports. Málaga airport is 2 hours away from
Arcos.
Parking
Hotel
El Convento is located in the Heart of the Old Quarter, on a pedestrian
street called Maldonado, considered one of the most beautiful streets of
the town.
|
|
|
Like
in most of the old towns in Andalucia, streets are narrow and parking is
limited.
Once
you are in Arcos, follow the signs “Centro Ciudad” (city centre) or “Conjunto
Monumental” (old town). Drive up the hill to Plaza del Cabildo; it is a
toll parking area (P2) and a 24 hour ticket is offered to our guests at
a cheaper price. Once your car is parked, take Escribanos St. towards Plazuela
de Boticas (Bus) by foot and there turn the first into the right, the hotel
is at the end of the street, opposite Olivares Veas Theatre. |
| If
you prefer not to drive up to the Old Town, try to park in the lower part
of the town, at the underground parking in Paseo de Andalucía (P1)
or
at our sister Hotel Los Olivos parking lot (at a reasonable fee).
If you decided to park at Hotel Los Olivos, please go into the hotel and
tell the receptionist that you are a guest of Hotel El Convento.
From
there you must walk up the hill (a ten minute walk) or come by taxi (at
Hotel Los Olivos they could call one for you). There is also a small bus
(“Bus Centro”) that stops at Plaza España (between the underground
parking and Hotel Los Olivos) and stops by Hotel El Convento. The small
bus is running every day less Sundays. |

eating and natural surroundings to be discovered, and always a peaceful

poets or cultural people and also to the Restaurant El Convento Chef.

of the rooms have a beautiful view of the Guadalete River Valley and all
of them are very quiet. On the top of the building there is a terrace for
