Great location and staff. Loved the property as felt very authentic from Granada and comfortable. The bed was comfortable and king size. Overall quiet, did not hear voice from outside. I would definitely stay here again.

This hotel is outstanding! It’s beautiful, historic, and centrally located to the Alhambra, Flamenco shows, dining, and taxi stands. Seriously, we love it so much we are already planning our next stay here.

Super little hotel
What a great boutique hotel. We really loved our stay here. Next time we will defiantly book a few extra nights here. It's the little extra touches that sets this apart. Very friendly staff.

We liked the location in the old part of Granada and the staff was exceptionally helpful. My only criticism is our room did not have good lighting, but bathroom lighting was fine.

We booked for 2 nights and decided to stay a 3rd night last minute. Both rooms were perfect, location, and facility were amazing. The staff and Raquel were so kind and helpful. She helped up book some tickets to the Alhambra. Gave us a map of the city and suggested places we should see around town. We had an early depature and helped us get a taxi at 6am. Best services and verg kind caring staff. Location is beautiful.

Boutique hotel with quaint Courtyards. Easy walking to several sites. Shower stall was leaky, but not unexpected given the age of the building. Didn’t cause much problems. Parking was a bit far and expensive! Did reiterate that it’s best to take public transportation for Spanish holidays, more convenient and probably cheaper and faster than driving.

The hotel has history. Built in the 1600s. That was cool. There are only 5 rooms. They are attached to their sister hotel that has 18 rooms. There are little patios/coirtyards everywhere to sit and relax. Antique furniture, cool art, vases, etc. If you look at the pics of the rooms, one has a balcony inside of the entrance courtyard. That was my room. It was just awesome. You are on the most famous street, Darro. Which is also historic and sits along the small Darro river. You are at the bottom of the high hill/cliff that Alhambra sits on. What a perfect location. You can look up and see the castle towers etc. Really nice at night. There are restaurants, shops and alot of "cave" bars with Flamenco shows. We went to one and it was great. Esperanza at the front desk was great. And the most awesome person in all of Spain is Mari. She serves the breakfast and does alot of things. She is so fun. She is full of life. Very entertaining.

The history of the hotel and just how nice the way it was all laid out. Amazing location and the staff were so lovely. Just keep in mind, the building is very old obviously so the wifi doesn’t always travel through the thick walls. Made it a little hard for zoom calls as I had a few hours of work to do unfortunately.

The advertised parking is a 15 minutes taxi ride away. No access to the hotel with private car. The hotel did not tell us about this in advance, and we spent almost two hours driving around, taking taxi etc until we could check in with our luggage. Very bad experience, and mid-advertising of parking availability.

Granada is a historic place dont expect more the history part is breath taking. The hotel is nice to sleep in and leave good bed and pillow. Was not super clean there was one dirty towel, no elevator I arrived and was shocked there isn’t elevator I had to help the lady who checked me in to carry the bag up. When I checked out there was someone that help me thank fully carry it thankfully. The stuff is great very helpful and responsive. The heater was on didn’t know how to turn it off and the phone to the reception didn’t work. It’s more 3 star hotel not 5

Beautiful room in lovely hotel looking across to the Alhambra palace. Great spot for spending evening in Granada. Parking is very difficult in the old town so had to park in public car park and taxi in. Instructions on this could have been clearer. Breakfast was nice, but you have to complete form each day saying what you want and the time?? Overall a good choice

good Value Hotel near the Plaza Nueva.
This is an old building without a lift so be prepared for some stairs. It is tastefully decorated and was in a great position just off the Plaza Nueva. Staff were very helpful and friendly. There is no parking here but the hotel will guide guests on this point. Afternoon tea and snacks were provided.

Good location in very nice environment. Walking distance to major attractions. The only problems is that we had a car (rental) used for the road trip through the Andalusia region and this hotel is not accessible by car as only taxis and locals can enter the area by car. We had to leave the car in a parking garage, taxi to the hotel entrance, and carry our heavy baggage to the resection area that is 1 set of stairs in a second level and on the check out the same thing as they dont have assistance service to manage the luggage.

Great hotel and location!
We would gladly stay here again. The rooms were nice, spacious, in the heart of the city and within 5-10 mins of most attractions/restaurants. They were very accomodating for kids as well. It was one of 2 hotels suggested by the New York Times if you're going to visit the Alhambra (the other is in the Alhambra itself, but a bit more dated and further from the city center). We would gladly stay here again and highly recommend it to others. Thanks!

This was our favorite hotel we stayed at in all of our trip to Spain! The hotel is has a boutique flavor, which we loved. Our room was very clean and turned over each day. There was also a free bottle of wine in the room after we checked in. The best part was having a view of the Alahambra from our window! Priceless. The staff was fantastic and extremely helpful. Definitely recommend staying here.

Needs improvement
The room was dark and felt grimy- we were given our key and nobody walked us through our room. It needed space to place luggage, a table in the bathroom not a sink the size of a table!! The TV was limited but the remote hadn’t been cleaned since the 18th century! The lady at breakfast service and the front desk were the best part of our stay.
