Food is a real highlight at Hospes Amerigo, with three distinctive venues putting a modern twist on Spanish flavours:

El Bistró de Amerigo
Start the day in style at this elegant space, serving buffet and à la carte breakfast with international favourites and Spanish touches – think freshly baked pastries, local cheeses and seasonal fruit.

Fondillón
A refined à la carte restaurant focusing on Spanish cuisine for lunch and dinner, showcasing regional produce, rice dishes and carefully paired local wines. A smart dress code applies and beachwear is not permitted, keeping the atmosphere suitably polished.

Fondillón Tapas
A more relaxed tapas concept for lunch, snacks and dinner, ideal for grazing on croquetas, Iberian charcuterie and sharing plates between sightseeing.

On the rooftop, Amerigo’s Penthouse serves as a pool bar and evening lounge (typically May–October, midday to late), with cocktails, local wines and light bites against a skyline backdrop.
