Ruralsuite Hotel Apartamentos


The Hotel

Copying a Renault campaign….what if space was luxury? We apply the philosophy to this small hotel on the outskirts of Tudela- the best vegetables in Spain, so many say-, in which all the rooms are suite-apartments, generous in dimensions and service, enjoying a communal plot with both pine and olive groves, where an open air Jacuzzi adds to the family fun, or relaxed with your loved one or friends. The easy access and enjoyment of all its clients is the house philosophy. The hotel has adapted bathrooms, for people with reduced mobility in all its rooms and even hydro massage showers with music and chromo therapy.
The buildings, old sheep stables redone, are functional and minimalist, and the interior design consists in part of bare walls, design bathrooms and drawing rooms with vanguard furniture in wood glass and leather with plasma TV sets and impeccable kitchen equipment. The light invades every room through big windows which look over the borderline plains between south Navarra and the Bardenas Reales. They show us the impressive Moncayo silhouette full of snow in winter. The coffee shop has a fire place and offers us the possibility to have barbecues outside. The liberty of movement in the long two acre plot and the liberty which the apartment-suites have to offer make the whole space eminently comfortable and functional. The ecological commitment is complete, the boilers feed on cherry pips, the colors of the construction blend in with the environment. The sheets are hypoallergenic and we have a choice of pillows, the TV sets measure 40 inches and have USB ports, the blinds are electric, the doors are sliding doors and in front of our door step we find a table with chairs and parasols. All in all, a space of liberty and vanguard.


Accessibility

The whole of the hotel has easy wheel chair access, as well as the rooms and bathrooms. The signage packs in Brail and embossed with varied information for the blind and people with low vision. Kitchen equipment designed by the owners enabling  the withdrawal of drawers under the vitro cooker and the sink so as to gain access for wheel chairs.
