“A great location for very easy (3 minute walk) to get to Alhambra which is why we were there.”
Location for Alhambra was perfect if that’s all you want to do in this area. The main town of Granada is a good 15 minute bus ride away (regular local bus (C32) available @ 1.60€ each way). If you want to do more in the area then consider staying in Granada and getting transportation to Alhambra as has very good vibe. Room was good with good air con, breakfast was decent although slightly more limited on choice compared to other hotels on our stay but certainly very adequate. If staying here for more than 1 night then make sure you visit Granada as you’ll be missing out because there is a tendency to stay and eat locally due to convenience.

“Very nice hotel, extremely close to the Alhambra - but be aware of the steepness of that hill!”
The hotel is literally 5 mins from the Alhambra, great for joining a tour. Large bedroom; very clean; good bar & cafeteria area; very good value buffet breakfast options in a huge restaurant; nice swimming pool area; covered outside seating area by the front door.

“Brilliant! Very relaxing, which we weren’t expecting!”
On site bar and cafe that was almost continuously open with excellent, friendly staff. The pool was a great size and plenty of space around to relax. In close proximity to Alhambra. Nice to be away from bustle of the city but have the option of a Frequent bus service. A few other cafes and restaurants nearby.
