Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was excellent with great views over Granada and convenient access to the Alhambra, but the rooms were a bit underwhelming with limited facilities and a slight smell. The service, although overworked, managed to be friendly and polite. The dining experience was top-notch with a wide selection, while the lack of certain amenities was noticeable.
The hotel has a great location near the Alhambra and Albaicin. The rooms are clean, spacious, and warm, though the towels are thin. The service is exceptionally friendly and helpful. The dining offers a varied buffet but could be improved. The facilities are convenient and well-maintained.
I couldn't have asked for a better location! The hotel is so close to the Alhambra, making it super convenient for sightseeing. The rooms were modern, clean, and quiet, providing a comfortable stay. The service was top-notch, with helpful and informative staff. The dining experience was a mix of delicious meals and some disappointments. Overall, a great value for the price paid.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On the positive side, the room was spacious with the largest terrace I've ever had, complete with a nice table, chairs, and sun loungers. The hotel staff were friendly and cooperative, helping us with an early check-in after a tiring flight. However, there was a slight hiccup with the room initially, but they promptly changed it to a more suitable one. The breakfast was amazing, with a great selection. On the downside, the location was a bit tricky to navigate due to a steep hill, and the dining options at the hotel were average.
The hotel had tiny rooms, smaller than shown in pictures, but spotless upon arrival. The rooms were comfortable and very clean, suitable for short stays rather than long family vacations due to limited storage space. The service was polite yet sometimes seemed bored, although they exceeded expectations by helping with restaurant recommendations and providing bus schedules for complex journeys like Toledo. The location was perfect, a short drive to the city center, but taxis were readily available for about €7. Dining options, while plentiful and varied, were self-service with limited hot drink choices. The facilities were well-presented and accommodated all tastes. The hotel offers good value for money overall.
My stay at this hotel was absolutely wonderful! The rooms were so cozy and had everything I needed, from a nice bathroom to a fridge. The bed was super comfortable, and the view was just breathtaking. The location was perfect, especially being right next door to Alhambra Palace with secure parking and the friendliest staff ever. Definitely one of the most comfortable stays during my trip through Andalusia!
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was superb, right across from the Alhambra, making sightseeing a breeze. However, the rooms were below par, with noise from traffic and deliveries being a constant annoyance. The service was adequate but lacked a personalized touch. On the bright side, the dining experience was enjoyable with a good selection of breakfast items.
The hotel was in a prime location, convenient for visiting top attractions like Generalife and Alhambra. The rooms, despite a slight sewer smell in the shower, were delightful, featuring a wonderful private terrace. The feeling of being overcharged due to tourist status lingered, but overall, the rooms were satisfactory.
Although the rooms were clean and comfortable, they were not very spacious for three people and lacked windows, but the hotel benefits from a front location. The service was exceptional, going above and beyond to accommodate our needs. The brilliant location offers easy access to the Alhambra, making it an ideal choice for sightseeing. The dining experience was decent with a good variety of options, and the facilities were well-maintained.
The hotel's location is awesome, especially for visiting Alhambra, and ideal for wheelchairs or infirm guests. The rooms, though not very clean throughout the day, are of good size with a recently refurbished bathroom. The staff is helpful, friendly, and gave useful tips about Granada. The dining options are varied but not special. The facilities are decent overall.
Staying at this hotel was a delightful experience. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and spacious, ensuring a quiet and excellent stay. However, for longer stays, families might find the storage space insufficient. The service was top-notch, perfect for an active holiday with everything within walking distance, and the staff was extremely helpful, friendly, and efficient. The location is a dream for visiting the Alhambra, with easy access to transportation and breathtaking views. The dining options offered a wide variety and were well-stocked, catering to various tastes. Overall, a fantastic choice for a memorable stay.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is superb, right in front of La Alhambra and offers a lovely walk into the town, but the dining was not as I expected. The friendly service and proximity to the main attractions were definite highlights, though the rooms could use a refresh.
