“A quiet hotel in the heart of noisy city.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 August 2011

A good hotel in the heart of Granada. Beautifully decorated rooms, especially the amazing wooden ceiling that looks like a mosaic. Clean bathroom, great shower, a beautiful ceramic bowl. A little bit dark. The window looked out into the courtyard and it is a huge plus for your stay in Granada. Sleep was very quiet. In the street most of the night was the noise from the disco.
No parking. Paid parking nearby is difficult to find and very expensive. Meager breakfast

“I really loved it!!! The best hotel of my 30 days vacation in Europe!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 August 2011

This hotel is located aside to the Albaicin, in the old town of Granada, a few minutes of the Alhambra, and it's really very good! Room are very spacious and confortable, good beds and shower, very beatiful decoration, good breakfeast, and at a very good price, I recomend Posada del Toro and Granada, wonderful place! Close to many restaurants, comercial area, historical sites, really a gem!

“nothing impressive”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 August 2011

After reading some reviews here, I think how much you like this hotel really depends on what kind of room you get. Mine was very dark, no view, slight smell of mold, and a big fly (yes, a big one.) I could see the hotel was really trying with decoration and everything but it somehow didn't impress me. Convenient location and value for money, but I don't think I will go back. It's average.

“Great location, great hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 May 2011

You can't beat this location as other reviewers have stated. We easily found the parking at St. Augustin garage that hotel provided directions for. It was an easy, short walk to hotel even lugging suitcases. Arriving at hotel, being surrounded by graffitied buildings, doesn't initially create a great impression but once inside all is well. It's a lovely, historic building with open-roofed courtyard with plants and birds chirping and where meals are served. Included breakfast consisted of OJ, cereal, toast, jams, and pastries, about what you'd expect. There's a separate bar that didn't seem to be open during our stay. The public areas are nicely decorated with stained glass windows, ceiling murals, and a traditional, old Spanish feel, although could have done without the large stuffed bull head.

Everything was on the doorstep: cathedral, Plaza Nueva, river, buses to Alhambra and top of Albaicin, restaurants, and 'Moroccon shopping streets' just opposite.

We had a large front room with two sets of doors opening onto the traditional narrow balconies. The doors had interior shutters to open for light and additional exterior sliding windows for noise insulation. We weren't bothered by street noise as others reported. There was a small TV but if you wanted to catch the news you both had to sit on the side of the bed closest otherwise it was too far away to see properly, but of course, you're not there to watch TV. The bathroom was great. Had double decorative ceramic sinks with cupboards underneath. Plenty of room to lay out your stuff or store below and good lighting for applying makeup or shaving, things a lot of hotels lack. Shower was big enough and had jet thingies but didn't try them. Some of the other rooms had windows or large entrance balconies above the courtyard.

Staff we encountered spoke English fairly well and were helpful with maps and directions. They close the big wooden doors at night and you have to buzz to be let in but not a problem.

Would definitely recommend this hotel.

“Nice hotel, great restaurant, spotless location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2011

person found this review helpful

The rooms are average small, but cozy, my bathroom was huge and had a jacuzzi shower.
The restaurant has a cosy and native atmosphere, the food is rather good, and the price is ok.
The staff is helpfull.
It's located in the centre of Granada, 5 min from Albazin and 15 min from Allambra.
Parking places are tough and expensive all over that area.
The bazars, restaurants and bars are all around.
I'd go back.
