I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious but had a bit of trouble staying warm. They had a super convenient location, and let me tell you, the view of the Alhambra from my room was absolutely breathtaking. Plus, being able to overlook the mostly pedestrian street with that vaulted ceiling was a unique touch.

The service here was top-notch! They were so helpful and friendly, especially with navigating the narrow roads in the area. They also went above and beyond to accommodate any medical needs and make my visit memorable.

Let me tell you, the location of this hotel is a gem! Situated in the old town, it's a stone's throw away from Plaza Nueva, with no need to trek uphill like in other parts of town. I could even see the little river at the bottom of the Alhambra from my window!

Dining

The dining experience was simply outstanding! From the variety of bakery products to the juicy fruit salad and the best coffee in Spain, I couldn't ask for more. Plus, the homemade pasta was a delightful surprise.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel! The rooms were amazing with views across town to Alhambra, though I would have preferred an outside view. The balcony looking up to the Alhambra was fantastic, but my room overlooked a busy street and river with French doors opening to the constantly flowing pedestrian traffic.

The staff at the hotel were absolutely helpful with pointing out places to go and arranging a taxi service to the outskirts of Granada. They were super friendly and a big bonus was getting laundry washed and dried for a very reasonable charge.

Location

The location of the hotel was perfect in so many ways, nicely between the Alhambra and the old Albaycin neighborhood, close to Plaza Nueva. However, being on a touristy street could get a bit noisy.

Dining
