If you travel to Spain, make sure you don't limit yourself to just the two big cities of Madrid and Barcelona. Granada is a fascinating, smaller city rich in history and incredible sites like the Alhambra. The Palacio de Santa Paula is a fine choice, well-located near the center of town, the Cathedral and the old Moorish district. It's an... more

Great location on Gran Via...large room...helpful staff. We were really pleased with this hotel, would recommend to other travelers and would stay here again. more

Our only complaint is that free wireless internet was only available in the main lobby. You had to sit in the lobby. That's kind of silly for a 5-star hotel. I would have preferred to make internet phone calls, and check e-mails from my room. I don't know what the technical problems are associated with this, but I would have... more

The location is perfect -... more
