For a family of 4 the space felt a little cramped. The hotel did not have an electric hot water pot but they did have a restaurant on the 6th floor which served the purpose.
The location was great. The staff was good. It was reasonable for one night stay.

“Great for one or two nights. Take earplugs.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
The walls were paper-thin, so every sound from the adjacent room and corridor was very loud and disturbing (noisy shouty families!) Our room was facing into a dingy courtyard. The air conditioning only gave out hot air, so we couldn't use it. One bedside light wasn't working, and the lighting was poor overall. Parking was super-convenient but expensive.
Valet parking was a nice surprise. The room was comfortable. Fabulous location - easy to get to by car and right in the centre. The room was great value for money.

It would have been nice to have had the option to make tea/coffee in the room; also to have had access to a BBC News service via the digital channels.
Staff were very responsive and helpful. The supply of a fridge was much appreciated.

“A very comfortable place in the city center of Granada and a good value for money”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 1 night
We wrote a message via my booking, requesting information and support for car park and we just received an email to informed us of the price of the hotel car park. I would advise the hotel to provide further information in the near future. When we arrived near the hotel, it was impossible to find the hotel car park. There was a car park right opposite (more or less) but it was impossible for us to distinguish it from other private car park, given that the gate was closed and there were not sign indicated the link with the Hotel. The Hotel being located on one of the main avenues of the city (one lane street), it was impossible to stop aside and ask for information around. Fortunately, there are several parking options in the area to sort this out. Then, at our arrival at reception, we were informed that the parking was only for overnight and that if we wanted to park, we shall remove the car early in the morning. It was not really pleasant to hear but given that we had already parked elsewhere, we decided not to move the car again. This time, I would like to give further advice: It is written everywhere that smoking is forbidden, which is a good initiative, however I am guessing that it is very hard to detect it as there are no devices on the ceiling's room with this function. I am mentioning this because in the early morning, the bathroom smelled like cigarette. Given that none of us are smoking, the only way this could happen was if someone tried to smoke very closed to the ventilation, which is linked to all the rooms. Fortunately, the smell was not that strong, so we could move on with our day. Maybe the hotel management would like to think to solution.... if this is of any interest of course.
The hotel is located in the center of the city which helped quite a lot when we needed to go to see the main tourist attractions or go to the closest bars and restaurants. The receptionist (she) was very friendly/helpful and the room provided was clean and comfortable for the proposed price. A very comfortable place and good value for money
