Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. While the location was amazing, just a short walk away from the Alhambra and Grenada, the room left a lot to be desired with its outdated A/C system and noisy surroundings. The service was friendly but seemed a bit overwhelmed at times. The dining experience was mediocre, lacking freshness and variety, but the hotel had some nice traditional touches. The facilities were basic but functional.
I stayed at the hotel and found it to have a very spacious room with a roomy terrace overlooking the interior courtyard, but it felt quite austere and lacked luxury and comfort. However, the service was exceptionally helpful and friendly, especially the waiter, and the location right by the Alhambra was perfect. The dining options were a bit expensive and not very memorable compared to other places in Granada. Overall, a mixed experience but with some standout positives.
The hotel offers a quaint stay with unique courtyard rooms accessible via a spiral staircase. The rooms, although small, provide a cozy atmosphere with outdated yet acceptable amenities. The service goes above and beyond, with staff members even fetching buckets of water for commode flushing. The location, nestled within the Alhambra grounds, is a dream for exploring the iconic landmark. Dining on the patio is simplistic but ideal for a quick bite. However, the pricing may not fully reflect the overall value offered.
Staying at the hotel was a mix of charming rustic rooms with modern amenities but with a street-facing view. The location within the Alhambra complex was unbeatable for convenience, although dining options left something to be desired. The service varied between incredible and somewhat aloof at times.
Staying at the hotel was a unique experience, being inside the citadel of the Alhambra. The rooms, although small and dark as expected due to the historical location, were comfortable and had a very roomy terrace overlooking the interior courtyard. The service from the staff was friendly and kind, reminiscent of the warm feeling you get from being served by someone like Emmanuel. The location couldn't be more perfect, allowing us to literally wake up, walk 100m, and start our visit to the Alhambra. The dining experience, although a bit expensive and not very memorable, was still enjoyable in the surprisingly cool patio. Overall, a memorable stay within the historical grounds of the Alhambra.
Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, though rustic in decor, featured modern amenities and a comfy bed, but cleanliness was lacking, and the patio was neglected. The service was friendly and helpful, despite some challenges with the room location. The location was excellent for visiting the Alhambra, but lacked serious customer care in certain situations. Dining offered mixed experiences, with some value concerns. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
I had a unique stay at this hotel with its rustic decor in a 200-year-old building, spotless modern bathroom, and a comfortable bed. The location was perfect for exploring the garden and palaces, making it an excellent choice. The dining experience could be improved for better value, but overall, it was a quaint and clean place for a memorable visit.
