Arrayán was a Spanish TV soap opera which was aired on Canal Sur. It became the longest running soap opera in Spanish television history, more than 2.400 episodes were aired between 2001 and 2013.[1]

Plot

The story takes place in a luxury hotel in a fictional town, although it was filmed in Coín (Málaga) on the Andalusian coast, called "Hotel Arrayán". Germán Santisteban, its creator and director for decades, will retire, but is killed. This starts a chain of events.

Although the plot of the series changed a lot, the series continues to show everyday life in the hotel, the lives of their workers and the relationship with other employees and with customers. Shows every season new characters and new situations, being a springboard for many Andalusian actors.
