“Excellent location. Quiet, Modern, Clean room and Comfy bed!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2012
3
people found this review helpful

I loved Granada. We stayed here for one night and I would stay here again in a heartbeat! One of the best hotels we stayed at in Spain.

Location is right in the old town tucked on a quiet street across from the Plaza Nueva and near the Alhambra. Well marked for arrival. Our room was in the back on a quiet street. Very popular locals bar/restaurant in the hotel.

Nice sized very clean rooms and bathrooms. Bed was not pillowtop comfy, but definitely "Upscale European" with nice bedding and pillows.

Wi-fi worked well. Phone available.

Hotel Reception was slow, but eventually helpful and friendly.

**GPS Neverlost does not work in Granada, so don't bother.

“Nice Hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 January 2012

people found this review helpful

We spent 2 nights at the Hotel in last week December 2011. Hotel is new, fresh decors, modern lift, adequate rooms and very near the main Plaza Nueva. Very short walking distance to main streets and shops. Public transport was easy to Alhambra within 10 mins, though one could walk as well. Restaurants were near and open till late at night.
We booked 2 double rooms with 1 extra bed each. Rooms were clean and comfortable.

“Minimalist Look”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

Opened in March of 2011 so everything is NEW.  It's a minimalist look just steps from Plaza Nueva which is a great place to be.  The hotel is down a very short street and around to the right. Cant see it from the plaza; we had to ask.  It is also very close to the bus stops that serve the Alhambra and the bus terminal.  We came in from Sevilla and it was very easy to hop on the bus, get off at the cathedral and walk to the hotel. From the hotel you can walk to the famous tapa bars - with every drink the house gives you their complimentary  tapa of choice or in the case of one of the bars we went to, you could choose from a menu of about seven.   My son loved the heated towel racks in the bathroom - it was 2 degrees Centigrsde last week so....very, very nice.

“Great Value, Great Location but noisy bar below”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2012

Great Value, Great Location but noisy bar below
Very clean rooms with tasteful and modern decor that was spotlessly clean.
Excellent central location in the old part of the city walking distance to the Alhambra
Very good value for money.
The only negatives were:-
Our room was one floor up from the very popular and thus very busy hotel bar. Lots of smokers drinking outside under the patio heaters making quite a racket.
Parking your car in the garage takes quite a bit of skill and nerve negotiating the tight and steep ramp.

“Excellent”

We stayed here on 24th - the quiet night! Hotel is spotlessly clean, beds are extremely comfortable. The location is excellent for getting around the city. We read previous reviews about the entrance to the carpark and decided against using it (we were very glad when we saw the entrance) - San Augustin car park is 5 mins walk away and only 3 euros more expensive than hotel with far easier eaccess. Lots of great bars and restaurants close by. We paid 65 euros and this was extremely good value for money.
