El Caballo Blanco

Our room was small but comfortable, if rather dark. We were welcomed warmly and soon had our car parked in the yard behind the hostal. We never did manage to find out when the restaurant was open but there were plenty of places to eat close by. The town centre was within easy walking distance and had a few fine buildings. It is a town that gets on with life and does not overly concentrate on tourism. It is surrounded by beautiful countryside largely covered in olive groves. We would go back.

Booked in to this hostel in advance before moving to Osuna. Not knowing how long I'd be staying, the owner could not have been more helpful - allowing me to extend (and eventually leave early) without any fuss. I was originally provided a small, functional room but was quickly moved as it was pointed out the room was being redecorated. I was moved, at no extra cost, to a spacious double room. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was large - bigger than the rest of the room! It was a functional bathroom and the shower a bit slow but for the purpose and price it was absolutely fine. The air conditioning will live with me for a long time - it had a phenomenal range and quickly covered the entire room - a life savour in the late Spanish Summer! Location wise the hostel is also terrific, on the corner of Calle Granada and Calle Carrera, where many of the bars, shops and other services in Osuna are. There is a supermarket opposite too, which was very useful. My only gripe is that the hostel restaurant, which promised local cuisine, was open just one night of my stay - and there was no indication of opening hours. This wasn't a major problem, however, as there are plenty of good bars and restaurants in the town. In all an excellent stay and I would return without a doubt.

Quirky little place, a wee bit dowdy but nonetheless pretty comfortable. Easy to find and easy to park on the adjoining street despite it being mid town. Close to all recommended historic buildings Owner very pleasant, helpful and obliging. Evening meal was good if a trifle expensive.
