Best Family-Friendly Resort Stays in Antequera

Hotel Apartamentos Antequera gives families the space of an apartment: each unit has a kitchenette, a dining area and a seating corner, so meals and quiet time with children happen without squeezing into one room. The sun terrace and the city-view terrace add room outside, and the lift helps with pushchairs and luggage. With a 9.1 score from almost 900 guests, I would book it for a family stay of a few nights in Antequera.

I would choose Hotel Infante Antequera for a family stop in Antequera when a pool matters after a day of sightseeing. The garden and outdoor pool give children space to play, and some rooms look over the garden. Rooms have a seating area, a private bathroom and satellite TV, which helps on a slow evening. Breakfast is served at a cafeteria nearby rather than in the hotel, and the front desk is open 24 hours. It is a simple three-star with outdoor space.

I would pick Arte de Cozina for couples and families who like a historic building and a family-friendly restaurant under the same roof in Antequera. The air-conditioned rooms have private bathrooms and balconies with quiet street views, and there is a terrace, a bar and a lounge, with free WiFi throughout. The restaurant serves Spanish cuisine with dietary options. Guests rate it 8.6. I would ask for a street-view balcony room.

Los Dólmenes sits just outside Antequera, around a traditional Andalusian courtyard, and the rooms come with their own terrace, which gives families a little outdoor space of their own. The restaurant serves Mediterranean food, so an early dinner for children is easy to arrange on site. With an 8.3 score from over 1,100 guests and free private parking, I would use it as a car-based family base for exploring the Antequera area.

I would choose Hotel Manzanito for a family that wants a simple, central base in Antequera. The family rooms are air-conditioned with a private bathroom, TV, electric kettle and free WiFi, and each has a balcony with a view of a landmark. There is a terrace and a lounge to relax in, a lift, a tour desk and luggage storage. Off-site private parking can be arranged for a fee. It is a two-star hotel, so keep expectations simple.

I would choose Silken Antequera Hills for an active stay with golf and a spa near Antequera's historical town. The four-star hotel has an 18-hole golf course, outdoor swimming pools, a spa and wellness centre, and a restaurant specialising in pizza and pasta with show cooking. A seasonal disco is on site. The historical town is a 10-minute walk away, so it works as a base for exploring Andalusia.

I would pick La Sierra for families who want a four-star hotel in Antequera with dining on site. The air-conditioned rooms have private bathrooms, flat-screen TVs and work desks, and WiFi is free. There is a terrace, a restaurant and a bar serving Spanish and local cuisines, a continental breakfast is available daily, and family rooms are provided. Guests rate it 8. It is a comfortable, practical base for exploring the area.

I would choose Hotel La Yedra for a road trip where you want free parking and an easy stop near Antequera. The hotel is described as family-friendly and sits 12 km from Antequera, at the foot of the Sierra de las Cabras Mountains, beside a motorway. Rooms are air-conditioned, WiFi and parking are free, and a restaurant serves Andalusian cuisine. A 24-hour reception and a souvenir shop are on site. It is a one-star roadside base, not a town hotel.

I recommend Hotel Castilla in Antequera to families who put a good meal first. It is a family-friendly two-star rated 7.7 across more than 1,000 reviews, and its popular restaurant serves traditional home-cooked cuisine with a reputation for good value. The rooms are described as clean and comfortable, and the staff as helpful. From here the historical monuments and surrounding olive groves are easy to explore.
