Unfortunately we did not take the dog outside because we needed to drive away but would love to take them when we come back.

The location was amazing overlooking Granada while being close to the Sierra Nevada park. Breakfast was amazing and would be lovely to visit later during the summer to enjoy the pool with such a great location. Very large, comfortable bed. The cherry on top were two lovely golden retrievers waiting to be petted and even willing to accompany us for a walk up the hill.

The breathtaking views from the hotel are a serene blend of natural beauty and architectural marvel, providing a tranquil escape from the hustle of everyday life. The hotel's charm is significantly enhanced by its delightful resident bunnies, hopping about in their gentle, carefree manner, adding a touch of whimsy and joy to the surroundings. These furry friends, along with the hotel's friendly dogs, create a heartwarming atmosphere that feels like a home away from home. At the heart of El Balcón Hotel's exceptional experience is Patrick, the owner. His warmth and genuine hospitality are unparalleled. Patrick goes above and beyond to ensure every guest feels welcomed and cherished. His attention to detail and deep commitment to guest satisfaction make the stay truly special. Adding to this enchanting experience is the culinary mastery of Chef Natasha, a French chef whose talent transcends borders. Her background brings a unique flair to the table, expertly blending French culinary techniques with local Spanish ingredients. Each meal prepared by Natasha is a work of art, offering a symphony of flavors that tantalize the palate and celebrate the fusion of cultures. In conclusion, El Balcón Hotel is a hidden gem that offers an absolutely delightful stay. It's a place where the beauty of nature, the warmth of hospitality, and the joy of gastronomic delights come together to create an unforgettable experience. The fusion of French culinary artistry with the serene Spanish landscape makes for a truly unique and memorable stay. I left with a heart full of memories and a promise to myself to return to this enchanting haven.

Dogs barking from other neighbourhoods are not really a big problem, but it's the only small negative I can find.

Staff, food, comfort, hospitality, the amazing views. Everything really.

A short drive away from the hustle/bustle of the city without feeling overly remote. Great place to relax and enjoy Granada and the surrounding towns and hiking paths and trails. Fantastic breakfast and great great dinner options,

We couldn't stay a bit longer.

The location is amazing - the hotel is a 5 minute drive into the Sierra Nevada national park and is a great starting point for hiking and also only a 15-20 minute drive from downtown Granada. The staff was very friendly, helpful and made us feel more like we we're staying with friends than at a hotel. The room we booked was very roomy, comfortable and with a big balcony overlooking the breathtaking national park and Granada. Breakfast and dinner by the pool was also a big part of the overall experience and the food itself was great. A surprising bonus we're Duna and Logan, the two beautiful dogs who are always happy to greet you.

The small hotel is located 20-25min from Granada in a very quiet area with a magnificent view on the city and the Sierra Nevada. In front of the hotel there is plenty space to park your car on the street for free. The staff were al very friendly and the rooms offered all comfort you needed. We booked the room with the separate in room bath tub and this was awesome! In the neighbourhood there are not a lot of restaurants but this is no problem because dinner at the hotel, made by the owner herselve, is excellent and tasty. We enjoyed the pool and relaxing area accompanied by the 2 house dogs. There is an honesty bar and fresh made cocktails available in request! The dogs are present but if you ignore them they will not search for any attention. On the otherhand, watch out when you start throwing his/her rock or when you start petting them, they keep you busy for hours. Breakfast is nice and taken well care of.

We loved everything about this place! Pedro is such a sweet host, you really feel at home. There are two dogs en several bunnies living at the hotel, which is a plus for animal lovers like us. The view was amazing, the room (suite) very romantic due to super comfy bed, view and bath in the middle of the room,… Breakfast and dinner was lovely and there are so many possibilities to enjoy yourself nearby (Sierre Nevada, Alhambra, Granada, biking, the coast,…). And you get all of this for a relatively small price. We loved it :)!

We had a lovely room with a little balcony (Room 3). Stunning views. Enjoyed meals both nights sitting outside looking at the view (and again for breakfast). Lovely walks from hotel doorstep. We would definitely stay again!
