This is definitely a keeper! We would stay here again! It is right next to the Alhambra, very close to the bus station in order to go to town (or a pleasent 10 minute walk). We did not try the restaurant, but did try the cafe/bar which was very good. The staff was helpful. The only draw back was the airconditioning--we had the family room, very large 2 rooms with a large bathroom for only 95 euros a night. The airconditioning was terrible, but I would stay here again!

A hotel so close to the Alhambra is ofcourse very special. We enjoyed it. The room, although, was not cleaned properly. We found hair in the bathroom and bedroom from former visitors. We had room 411. The sunscreens were old, and did not work very well. The view of the room was good, we could see all the buses arriving during the day.
It was a pleasure that we could park the car in front of the hotel on tthe Alhambra-parkingplace. For a reduced price.
Breakfast in this hotel was good. Lot's of variety, fruits, several juices, and well organized. The staff was helpfull, gentle and spoke English, which not everyone does in Spain.
The staff at the reception was polite, and offered also several arrangements. The citybus to Granada was als almost in front of the hotel. About 2 minutes walking.

The first room offered faced to the back wall so we rejected it and were then given a pleasant twin/double on the the 3rd floor with a view of the Alhambra.It is important not to take the first room offered if it proves unsatisfactory. Stipulate you want a front facing room. Decor was rustic and tasteful, not basic, and bathroom was good quality .Breakfast was excellent; plenty of cereal,yogurt,fruit, cheese, salami, bread and pastries+ bacon and egg(which we didn`t eat). Ask for coffee `con agua caliente` for a large coffee.The bus at 1Euro is good value to Plaza Nueva and you can stay on to the Albaicin if its a 32 and also transfer within 45 mins.Most restaurants start serving late by UK times but we had delicious food by 8,30 in Pilar de toro and Taberna Salinas both near P. Nueva.As tourists will spend their most of their time in the Alhambra, Albaicin and around P. Nueva this is a good short-break choice.There is a short cut walking path (for the well-shod) from the Alhambra bus stop to the Carro del Darro and the Albaicin.Walk up to the Mirador at St Nicholas for great view of the Alhambra and the Sierra Nevada.The hotel offers free internet access.Wear comfy stout shoes to visit the Alhambra and Albaicin-many paths are rustically cobbled and quite rough .

I stayed at the Guadalupe for 2 nights on a trip to Granada, mainly to see the Alhambra. For this the hotel is ideal, being located just across the road from the entrance. If your main business is in the town, you can catch a shuttle bus into Plaza Nueva which takes 5 mins and costs €1. I wouldn't recommend walking the incline to the hotel unless you enjoy a hike.

The hotel itself seemed average, however we were directed to a room in another part of the builing - the 'Residence Guadalupe'. This was a few doors up and we were told it was new. The room was compact but clean and quite pleasant, although we had a view of a red tin roof. It should be noted that the rooms do not come equipped with irons and you cannot get one, so bring a travel iron if you don't want to have to steam your clothes in the shower!

The bathroom was clean and bright, decorated with pretty tiles and the shower pressure was excellent (perfect for steaming out the creases!)

Breakfast was what I would expect from a hotel of this rating, the usual selection of meats, breads and fruit. It was nothing special but definately sets you up for the day and the staff service was average (no complaints).

For visiting the Alhambra the hotel is in a great spot. The buses into town run every few minutes from early morning (around 7am) until around 11.30pm so you shouldn't have a problem getting into town either, although if you have a few days planned in Granada away from the Alhambra I would recommend staying in the town.
