We have been both on a 10 days trip in Nicaragua from the 16 of April to the 26, we have visited a number of hotels and here is what we found: The Hotel La Gran Francia in Granada dates back to 1524 and has been fully renovated over the past few years; the hotel building is separated from the... more

i liked this place, it has a lot of style and really gives you a wonderful experience of staying in a colonial building so typical for Granada. My room was downstairs and therefore a bit dark, try if you can get a room upstairs as i expect these have more daylaight. Loveley bathroom (although as noted in other reviews the... more

From the moment the Hotel arranged transport picked us up at the airport, until the moment they dropped us back at the airport for our return home this hotel consistently exceeded our expectations Our room was immaculate and cool with a small balcony overlooking the street, on which serveral nights we just sat, had a beer and took in street... more

We recently stayed at La Gran Francia - from Jan 14th to Jan 17th - and in general we enjoyed our stay. The biggest drawback was that there was NO hot water during our entire 4 day, 3 night stay! The hotel staff was very friendly, but could only tell us that there was a problem with the generator that... more

We just returned from an 8 day stay in Nicaragua with 3 nights at the beginning of the trip at La Gran Francia & then 1 night a the end. We booked tours & transfers through the hotel ( they were a little more expensive) & they did an excellent job, making us feel almost like family. The first 3... more

We stayed at this hotel for a 2 nights and celebrate New Year. Great historical place with colonial decor. Nice big rooms, good food, great location - right on the main square. We particularly liked a balcony of the restaurant as we spend a lot of time seating there watching people. If I will ever go back to Granada I... more

La Gran Francia is a wonderful hotel and your best option for Granada. Centrally located, secure, impeccably clean and knowledgeable, helpful and friendly service. The plunge pool is a treat after a hot day of sight-seeing. The bar and restaurant are quite nice. The rooms are spotless and some are quite large. more

We booked two rooms at Granada's La Gran Francia hotel as part of a package trip to Nicaragua offered by Capricorn Tours. It is one of the more "expensive" hotels in this colonial city, but comparatively speaking it's about the same as what one would pay at a nondescript Holiday Inn in the U.S. Our package deal rate was &75/night,... more
