La Bola Suites, Ronda

Kimkim team favorite · Standard
Bright, modern apartments in the city center just five minutes from the Puente Nuevo

Overview

Enjoy modern, airy, and bright apartments with a trendy decor, kitchens, and seating areas. Choose from studios or one- or two-bedroom units, all in the city center and within walking distance of grocery stores and the main sites. You'll find La Bola Suites in two different buildings, one with a shared rooftop terrace and the other with private balconies for each unit.

Pros
  • These suites are a good option if you'd like to stay in an apartment, as they're modern and bright with an excellent location in the city center.
  • The main apartment building (where you'll find several units and the reception) is just a five-minute walk from the Puente Nuevo, and the other building housing more flats is about two blocks away and a bit closer to the bridge and viewpoints.
  • Ronda is very compact, so you can walk to nearly everything from your apartment, including grocery stores, restaurants, and sites like the bridges across Tajo Gorge, the historic Alameda del Tajo park, and the Bullring of the Royal Cavalry of Ronda.
  • You can choose from studio or one- or two-bedroom apartments, all with kitchens, living rooms, nearby parking, and a shared rooftop terrace with beautiful city views (though some have private balconies, too). 
  • If you're arriving late, you have the option of 24-hour self-check-in or can pay a fee if you'd like someone to meet you after 10:00 pm.
Cons
  • Because this is an apartment accommodation, the staff cleans the units only every three days.

Authenticity

Though apartment lodging is everywhere these days, La Bola Suites brought the concept to Ronda as the first business to provide this type of accommodation. To keep it personal and uphold the small-city mentality of Ronda, the company included a reception to welcome all guests. So you get the freedom of an apartment with the welcoming and support of a hotel.

Location

La Bola Suites eventually expanded and now incorporates two buildings in Ronda, one on Calle Almendra and the other on picturesque Plaza Carmen Abela. Both locations are just around the corner from a grocery store and allow you to walk to all the sites in the town center, including Puente Nuevo, Puente Viejo, the Mirador de Ronda, the Bullring of the Royal Cavalry of Ronda, and the 19th-century Alameda del Tajo park.

Rooms & Bathrooms

You have your choice of one- or two-bedroom apartments, all with modern furnishings and decor. The units on Calle Alameda keep things bright and trendy with neutral tones and small kitchens (no oven). The Plaza Carmen Abela units are bigger with dark wood elements and black-and-white decor, plus full kitchens with ovens and private terraces. All are good options; what you choose depends on your preference of amenities, location, and style.

Other Highlights

La Bola Suites offers a reception to welcome you to your apartment, though you can check in 24 hours if you arrive in Ronda after 10:00 pm when the reception closes. Though check-in isn't until 2:00 pm, you can store your luggage at the reception. Guests can enjoy a shared rooftop terrace (if staying on Calle Alameda since the units at the other location have private balconies).
