We stayed at Hotel Guadalupe December 27-29, 2006. Its location is excellent for visiting the Alhambra. It's not in the center of town, but rather on the hill where the Alhambra is located, just across the street from the ticket counter and entrance. There are plenty of shops and restaurants to keep you busy between visits to the Alhambra, but if you need more, there are buses about a block away that will whisk you down the hill and into the center of Granada for 1 euro.

The rooms are variable, and we booked directly with the hotel, asking for a room on the 4th floor. All of the rooms on that floor have views and balconies. The two best are 407, with a mountain view and a huge balcony with table and chairs, and room 412 with an Alhambra view and the same size balcony. The rest of the rooms have smaller balconies. The hotel has a cafeteria and a restaurant. The food in both was fine. We had the buffet breakfast every day, for an extra charge.

When we were at the Alhambra, there were only a couple of places to stay within walking distance. I recommend the Guadalupe over the exorbitantly priced Parador, which is within the precincts of the Alhambra. A tip: Many tours book this hotel, so be sure to contact the hotel directly and ask for one of the better rooms.

I had a double room with small balcony on 4th Floor for one night in May '06. The room was clean, and I found the bathroom more than adequate.
The "Stand-on Only" balcony had a pleasant view of olive groves, and the bed was comfortable. The room had nice and characteristic furniture. There was quite enough room for two people...four would be pushing it. The location next to "The Alhambra" can't be beat, and the walk to town is easy. However, after a full day of sightseeing, one might want to take a cab back to hotel, and it is not so expensive to do so.
I could easily envision 3-5 nights at this hotel if one were to score a "terrace"room...I saw two such rooms from my balcony, and they looked delightful.
I could hear "generators" and dogs at night, but this was not a problem for me. The room was attractive, comfortable and not street level, so, I slept comfortably.
My traveling companions had a lower level room, no balcony, but a window facing sparse vegitation. They were also satisfied with their room.
My sense is that any room here is good for an overnight if you only want to visit Alhambra. If you want to stay longer, only the 4th Floor will do.

Booked this hotel using Air Miles simply to visit the Alhambra for which the location and parking is excellent. The 1euro ride to the centre is also very handy as it is a climb back from the Plas Nuevo. I agree that the walls are thin but we took ear plugs!. The room was clean and the jacuzzi bath was refreshing after a long day on your feet. Breakfast was fine and the staff were friendly and helpful. Probably too out of the way for the rest of Granada but cant be beaten for the Alhambra

I think we were very lucky when we booked this hotel as we paid a low price (through Expedia) and got a lovely large quiet room with views of fields and a small balcony. There was a jacuzzi/whirlpool sryle bath in a big well-equipped bathroom.

The lobby area is quite smart but doesn't have much character. The breakfast was fine but expensive if you don't have it included in the rate. The staff were efficient but not particularly friendly.

The hotel is brilliantly located for the Alhambra and we made the most of this by being practically the first people in there in the morning and rushing straight to the most popular bits which we had to ourselves for a few minutes. It was wonderful.

Had I studied the map properly I would perhaps not have booked this hotel as it's a bit of a walk (down hill) , though a pleasant one, to the city centre. But the bus service is excellent and seemed to run quite late (though maybe not by Spanish standards!).

It is a long while since we visited, and it was off-season, which may have been why we got such a good deal. But I would recemmend it to anyone who was planning to visit the Alhambra.

4/4 found this review helpful

The best thing about this hotel is the location. It is a 2 minute walk to the Alhambra entrance, making it very convenient. Parking is at a slightly reduced rate of 12 € per day, in the Alhambra parking lot. Access to town center is by a 15 minute walk or a 1 € bus ride.

The lobby is small but clean. There is a small bar as well as a very small lounge area. There is a single computer for high speed internet - it is free, if you can get on it.

There is a small elevator which worked fine.

The rooms are of small to average size, with nice vinyl windows and metal shutters which seal tightly shut - to block out both noise and sunlight. We had no need for AC at this time of year. The rooms are a bit older, but everything is clean and works fine. The bathrooms are average in every way. The toilet plumbing makes a loud noise when flushing. The rooms walls are very thin; the neighborhood itself is quiet, but if you have loud neighbors this could be a problem. In summary, these are average rooms, nothing really special or dilapidated about them.

The restaurant was also average. The breakfast was good. The dinner was not my favorite, and I would dine elsewhere in the future.

The staff was friendly and helpful and english-speaking.

All in all, the location was hard to beat for the price, but the amenities are only fair. If you need fancy digs, go elsewhere. If you want location above all else, this place fits the bill.
