La Locana, Bubión Overview
La Locana is located in Bubión, Spain. Rated 9.2 out of 10 based on 45 guest reviews.
La Locana is a calm, countryside stay in Bubión, Spain, set on Calle Real, 1, where the village rhythm and mountain air shape your days. With a guest rating of 9.2/10 from 45 reviews, it’s the kind of place people mention for its steady comfort and helpful approach to planning time outdoors. Reviews commonly highlight the ease of getting connected with WiFi and the practical warmth of heating when temperatures drop in the Sierra Nevada. The terrace is another detail guests appreciate for unwinding after hiking, while the non-smoking environment suits travelers who prefer a cleaner, fresher atmosphere.
If you’re planning walks, La Locana’s location works well for reaching Sierra Nevada National Park in about 25 km, and it’s also within striking distance of the Poqueira Gorge trails around 10 km. For culture on a day trip, the Alhambra in Granada is roughly 70 km away, giving you a straightforward option when you want a change of scenery. The hotel’s tour desk can help you turn those distances into an actual plan, and the on-site focus on outdoor activities like hiking, horse riding, and even tennis supports active itineraries.
La Locana is best for solo explorers and couples who want a quiet base for trail days and village evenings, especially if you’re road-trip friendly and comfortable driving between Bubión, nearby viewpoints, and the wider Alpujarras area. Travelers also note that the lack of parking can affect road-trippers, so it’s worth factoring that into your arrival plan.
