We have just returned from a fabulous 2 days at this gorgeous hotel - they've applied tremendous attention to detail and spared no expense in restoring a former convent into a contemporary meets romantic tradition hotel just off the main squares in Granada. We were thrilled with the magnificent room we had which opened on to the most amazing side balcony (which may have been a small former church) and looking onto the courtyard. The one-way system in Granada does require patience & the Council have the streets all dug up around the main hub of the city. With our room overlooking the courtyard, we simply heard the birds by morning & the crickets by night; however, with the on-going construction I would advise requesting a room away from the front. The staff were really friendly and nothing was a problem - I had some special requests from the Manager and he was just marvellous - we've stayed in some beautiful places and it's up there with the Locanda dell'Amorosa (Tuscany) for us in terms of quality. Enjoy!

We loved this hotel. It is in a restored historic building with a lovely courtyard but the rooms could not be more modern. Fabulous beds and bathrooms with many nice touches. Our only gripe was that it was so difficult to get to and took us 1 1/2 hours driving in circles. We didn't do so well driving in Spain-those roundabouts were difficult, and many one way streets. Get good directions. We got there very late so were not able to enjoy the facility as much as we wanted. The breakfast was wonderful and worth every penny for our family of 4. Usually I won't book anyplace that doesn't include breakfast but this was an exception.
Overall, it could not have been any better.

We booked in here after realising our original booking the Saray was too far out of the city to be useful. From the moment we got there the service was excellent. Really helpful staff. Granada is heaving noisy and hot. The hotel is a real lifesaver. The courtyard is amazing and you can't hear the bustle of Gran via de Colon.

Staff were helpful in reserving La Alhambara tickets for us. Whilst we were in the Saray, the Saray staff suggested we take a taxi to the ticket office to get tickets for the following day, or surprise surprise take their 3 times more expensive excustion package !!!

We had our 9 month old with us and the room was big enough for our queen size bed and a crib. The bathroom with double sink was stunning. We used room service numerous time to get hot water and hot milk for her feeds. They always arrived in 5 minutes and we were never charged for the hot milk. We had tea bags with us (no tea & coffee in room) and used extra water to make us tea. Eventually room service started leaving us tea cups !!

The free mini bar is not to be sniffed at. Although only two alcoholic drinks in it, I reckon at bar prices there are €20-25 of drinks in it.

The restaurnat is excellent but a little pricey for the portions sizes, however remember the Spanish dont have large evening meals. Dinner in the courtyard simply has to be done. The kangaroo tenderloin was so good my wife had it twice.

I have nothing but admiration for the hotel. And at about £90 (approx. €120) it was a bargain.

I would really recommend this for people with kids as it is so central you can easily pop out, and come back. If you are stuck in in the evening cause of kids, its a really nice to sit in both levels of the courtyard with a glass of wine.

A previous reviewer described this hotel as an oasis in busy Granada, and I would have to agree entirely. It's a great modern hotel which has integrated an old convent building. The concierge was helpful in making our bookings to visit La Alhambra. The hotel is centrally located and it's a short (albeit uphill) walk to wander through the old neighbourhoods of Granada. There is also some decent shopping in the streets around the hotel. Other sites close by include the Cathedral and the Royal Chapel. My only caution to anyone travelling to Spain, or Andalucia specifically is this region is not ready for foodies! if meals are an important part of your vacation, the food in these parts is average at best, so be prepared to be disappointed unfortunately. That said, we did not eat at the AC Palacio Santa Paula - the menu looked good, so it may be an option. The hotel's courtyard is a great spot for an apperitif.
