Hotels near Alhambra, Granada

We had a wonderful experience at the Gran Via. The rooms were impeccable; over a couple of different stays in December & January, we tried a regular room as well as the suites, all were lovely. I particularly recommend the junior suite with the mural on the ceiling (room #6), it was a really special room. The spa & hammam were small but really nice, a perfect way to decompress after work, skiing in the Sierra, etc. The location of the hotel is very central to the Granada cathedral area, as well as the Albaicin. Walkable to many restaurants, bars, & tourist sites. And the rooftop has beautiful views of the cathedral and the Alhambra. What really stood out is the service. The staff was very attentive and went out of their way to make us feel welcome & comfortable. Would definitely stay at the Gran Via again next time I'm in Granada.

The room is in a great location, just across the street from the cathedral. The facilities are good and the room is relatively large. There are also bathroom facilities that cater to the elderly and those with difficulty walking. The staff are very enthusiastic and can help book a taxi.

Barceló Carmen Granada boasts stunning views of the Alhambra and a prime location that allows for easy exploration of Granada's historic sites. The hotel's rooftop pool and terrace are perfect for relaxing after a day of sightseeing. While most guests appreciate the modern amenities and courteous service, limited parking can be a slight inconvenience. Overall, it earns a well-deserved 4.5 out of 5 stars.

As other have said around 10 minutes walk from City Centre but close to all attractions. Rooms are excellent, spacious and have a nice bathroom. Tea and cofee provided and rooms kept spotless by cleaners. Did not use amenities on offer or eat in the restaurant so cannot comment on quality. Only one minor negative was around wifi - brilliant in reception but 'patchy” in room and would often lose connectivity. Overall first rate hotel and would return.

The quality of several restaurants in the Nevada shopping mall and shopping mall within 1 km are not bad. Carrefour, lidl supermarket is within walking distance, free parking on the side of the road, and although there are not many types of breakfast, it is left with care. The hotel is not big and the decoration is warm. Except for the small layout of the room, which is slightly simpler, the others are full marks and very cost-effective.

Excellent location. Good price and excellent services

We went with two small children with both (oldest almost 7) both very keen to use the 'childrens pool' (seperate to the adults rightly so). This 'childrens ' pool is a babies paddling pool (for a better description read other bad reviews outlining the same issue). When I asked the hotel manager why I was lead to believe children might be able to swim from the clear description on the website he passively aggressively stated that its a wellness center meant purely for relaxing (it was like something out of 'The Office') . I explained to him that perhaps with the oversized frozen caricatures and water jets and clear description on the website we could be mistaken in to thinking that children might be able to swim. Not sit in a 30cm 5m x 2m square box. I also pointed out that people are still able to SWIM in wellness centres. I just checked the website again and it clearly states 'children's pool'. It was beyond disappointing (we went more for the hotel as the lifts were still closed). The ONLY saving grace was the childrens club. Great activities and nice environment with the girls super friendly and perfect for the kids. If it wasnt for this we probably would have moved as our room was absolutely tiny. The room service food was hideous. Cold on arrival and bad quality and insanely expensive. We were walking back into the hotel one night and asked reception how much the buffet restaurant was if we havent booked it, in advance they said 35 euros. When we went to check out they tried to charge us 43 euros. I explained that wasnt the price we got told by two members of staff just the evening before. They said they charged us a different price because we didnt book it in advance. It was outrageous. I explained maybe the mistake was with the staff members not being aware of two different prices and the lady on the desk proceeded wo have a full blown arguement with us on the desk. It was truly AWFUL. We asked to speak to the manager and got told they were busy. The queue behind us was insane. I explained we were not leaving until we paid the price we got told by the staff members and after a very long amount of time she charged us the amount we got quoted. It left us with the worst feeling and I have since told everyone I know about it. Side notes: I asked the pool receptionist to get the pool toys out for the kids. She said she hasnt got them today. I told her we had them the day before. She said ok I'll go and get them. (and they were in the cupboard). The childrens pool bubbles didn.t even work on the second day. The lady on the pool desk said it was broken, I went for a massage I had booked for 6pm. The masseuse was late. Nobody informed me. I was just sat there waiting. It Started at 6.15 and finished early with no apology. Such a bad spa experience. So fundamentally- DO NOT go with kids that want to swim. DO NOT expect good customer service. DO expect small v.over priced rooms.

We have stayed here almost every year (COVID) for over 6 years. The location and offered parking is nice. There have been little upkeep and no noticeable upgrades in the last 6 years. Today, I asked for the shower light to be changed and 7 hours later we took our showers in the dark. The showers have filled with water for the last 6 years and it's never been fixed. The dining room tables at breakfast were dirty, even after being wiped down. This is a ski area and we need to hang all of our ski clothes to dry for the next day. Our room had ZERO hooks or places to hang coats and pants. I'm pretty sure this is the last time I will stay here. It is too run-down. The loads of school groups that stay here and run around the halls can have it. I will go somewhere nicer.

The room smells wet all day, and there were also furnishes. Some of the main TV channels were not matching. Orange juice from the cafeteria is very improved because it doesn't know orange. The positive part is the location and views, the swimming pool and the friendliness of the workers.
