At least we should spend one and half day at Granada. One day is too short. Even we got to all places on our plan, but my son was so tired about many walking. Bus service is good. We took C1, C2, and C3 to several different locations. Very convenient. Alhambra is gorgeous. Granada Cathedral is one of must seen.
We stayed in the Bib-Rambla area and chose to dine there as well, it seemed less touristy than Plaza Nueva. Our first night we ate tapas in a bar (all locals) that was probably the size of our bedroom, packed, but everyone was so friendly and the (free) tapas were exceptional. Taxi cabs were well-priced and easy to find. Soooo happy that we decided NOT to rent a car in Andalusia, parking is difficult and very expensive. We took buses (first-class) and trains between cities. Their transportation infrastructure is very well-developed, comfortable and convenient.
Once oriented with a map this city was very easy to navigate and enjoy by foot. The history amazing and the reception at each venue courteous and helpful. We found a lovely place to dine off the Plaza Nueva a short walk along the river by the name of La Fontana. The service was great & we returned because of the wait staff and pleasant atmosphere. Granada Tapas Tour's organized a memorable evening with six other fun tourists and the very knowledgeable young man who guided us to four local restaurants serving us wine, beer and a varied selection of Tapas. Perfect ending to our time in Granada.
Enough cannot be said about what a great city Granada is! Not only do you have the Alhambra and the Cathedral both of which cannot be overestimated because there is so much that accompanies each one that is deserving of considerable time. But Granada is a great European walking city with a lively evening scene including cafes, bars and tea shops and the Flemenco shows are fabulous too. Like I said enough cannot be said, period.
Because we love the City so much we decided to buy and settle in a nearby village here in Spain. We book into a hotel for the night to celebrate anniversaries and birthdays.(bit more special) but we drive to Granada regularly for shopping. Good shops and restaurants, great bars/clubs , not overpriced as some major cities. Nearly everywhere is walkable and should wish for a day on the beach or a day in the Sierra Nevada (skiing?) take a bus. Read Victoria Hislop 'The Return' learn more of the more recent history of Granada.
The city of Granada is amazing! We highly recommend the Alhambra and a guided tour through meusement group. They were excellent. For dinner we recommend Puerta Del Carmen. Be sure to get a churro and chocolate.
“Best part of Granada,beautiful modern hotel 😊”
“The space and decoration of the apartment, need to note we have stayed in 6 different hotels and apartments during our trip to Spain, this apartment was the most one we liked. Need to note that the location is excellent”
“Great location just off Plaza Nueva. The rooms are off a central courtyard which gives the hotel a really nice, intimate feel. Staff was very friendly and had great suggestions for restaurants and must-see sights. There is a coffee shop attached to the restaurant that served the best coffee we had in Granada.”
