Suggest your best plan, in view of your qualifications, would be to research all the hotels in the area and then approach management directly with your CV, written in Spanish. The worst they can say is ‘no’, but you already have an advantage with your language knowledge and experience, over the hundreds of other not so well qualified applicants looking for work. But pay rates here will not be at UK levels.

Many hotel groups publish job opportunities in their web pages. Find a complete list here http://www.mirahoteles.com/recursos-hoteles/cadenas-hoteleras.html . Then, look t any of their websites after "trabaja con nosotros" or the like. You get more hits than wasting time trying at any individual hotel. Good luck.
