Ronda, the white village of Andalusia

Sunday, March 7th, 2010

You will feel a real excitement when you drive across the city’s central square and look out to the sides of the gorge that divides this amazing town. The main street in Ronda crosses the famous and spectacular 100 feet deep gorge, which divide the city into two. Ronda is rightly the most famous white village of Andalucia,  enthroned on this  high rock. Tourists hanging over the edge to get a feel for this of awesome and historic city in heart of Southern Spain, just 40 min from the coast and Marbella. The old town is reminiscent of the Romans and Arabs – and Spanish renaissance and baroque palaces and the churches. Ronda is also home to Spain’s oldest bull ring, made legend by the American writer and bullfiighteraficionado Ernest Hemingway and actor Orson Welles. Ronda offers passion, history and beauty. Check out my pictures from the area and if you need a hotel in town, remember IGH Hoteles will be happy to accommodate, quality hotels in a quality location.

Enjoy Andalucia, Love Ronda…

Hotels interacting with Social Media

Sunday, February 7th, 2010

As some of you might know I am co-owner of IGH Hoteles in the South of Spain, a small independent hotel group in Andalusia with big ambitions. Currently we have 5 properties in Ronda and Malaga, but have further new properties being added to the portfolio over the next few month, the first addition is scheduled to open in March in Seville.

We have just completed the first group website for IGH hoteles and we are very pleased with the result. I am the architeqte behind the structure of the stite and it was my aim to introduce a hotel website with a Social media twist. Utilising Twitter for announcing special offers and news. A Facebook group that will offer a loyalty sheme for all members and a Flickr account to hold a vast image libary for all the properties and the area about the hotel.

When you are looking to book a hotel online, its my opinion that you are looking at so much more than just pictures of a bed, bath room etc.You want to get a feel for the hotel property I went to see and stay in each our own properties and attempted to photograph the “property soul” as well as the area just around the property so that the prospective client would look at get a feel for what could be installed for them.

The site utilises Social media to boost internet rankings and over the next few months I hope to see the site popularity rise and more guests coming to our properties, you are all welcome!
