Los Canilleros, a lovely hotel in Requena

Los Canilleros hotel in Requena sits in Requena’s beautiful historic centre, just a stone’s throw from fascinating sights. Unusually, the building housing the hotel has its very own cave, dug out between the 11th and 13th centuries, the Muslim period, to store grain and food. Requena is home to many of these caves that were dug into the undersoil of the historic centre. 

Los Canilleros is housed in a building dating back to 1859. Combining the charms of yesteryear with modern-day creature comforts, the hotel offers six beautiful guestrooms with ensuite bathrooms, a lovely living area, a dining room with fireplace where you can have your breakfast, as well as a private cave used to store a wide selection of quality wines. 

The guestrooms have views over the town, air conditioning and wifi. Your stay includes breakfast, giving you the opportunity to start your day with a lovely selection of traditional products. Requena’s cuisine is something to write home about. The Los Canilleros staff are always on hand to give you advice about places to visit and experiences you won’t want to miss.

Los Canilleros in Requena is just steps from Santa María church, which is referenced in as far back as 1333, and has been listed a National Historic and Artistic Monument. You’ll also want to visit the Keep and many more buildings of historic importance. If you’re in the destination in late August, make sure you take part in the incredible grape harvest festival, Feria y fiestas de la Vendimia. A great way to experience the town’s traditions.
