Ideally situated in the Albaicin, a short (but steep) walk to the Alhambra with plenty of restaurants nearby. The road where hotel situated is a cul-de-sac, so no through vehicular traffic but can be a bit noisy at times from pedestrians - if you're sensitive, then ask for an inward facing room. Hotel itself has been restored to it's 16th century splendour and is very atmospheric of the time. Rooms are what you would expect from a 4* hotel with efficient and helpful counter staff. Breakfast was also up to standard served in the superb arched basement. Looking around Granada, we didn't see anywhere where we would alternatively stay - with the possible exception of the Parador.

This is lovely little hotel in the heart of old town Granada....hotel itself has about 12 rooms, all based around an indoor courtyard and just really cool to stay in ...by no means a plush modern hotel so stay in modern Granada if you want that type of stay....but here staff are great, helpful and on duty 24 hours. Our room (#9) was lovely, verywell appointed a nice side view of the Alahambra....you'll feel really at home and relaxed here....

Plus the locatiuon is 10 minute walk (uphill !) to the alhambr plus great open plaze right there with several nice tapas bars and a great restaurent......

overlall just great place for 1-2 nights to allow you to really enjoy the heart of granada.....

We stayed here for our honeymoon and had the best experience we could have asked for. We stayed in room #8, a mirador on the second floor. General hotel ambience: quiet, romantic, gives you an instant feeling for granada. The place was built in the early 1500's and was recently renovated (2000). It has original Moorish architecture which was very cool. Room review: very large room with a window directly facing the Alhambra. Amazing at night and during the day. Modern bathroom with separate tub from shower. Hairdryer provided. Large armoire for clothes. Safe for valubles. Comfortable bed. Loud noises travel so you have to be quiet, even when the door is shut to your room. Location: Great, walking distance to the historical landmarks of Granada. A bit difficult to find. My Spanish speaking husband got us there in a sort of round a bout way; just ask to go to Plaza Nueva in the Albacyn (oldest part of Granada). The road is tiny and also private. You need to enter through a quasi private gate and tell someone you are staying at Casa Morisca. Once there, the hotel reserves a parking spot for you so you can park and leave. We would definitely return here when visiting Granada.

We were originally booked at the Parador and had to change our dates and luckily for us the Parador was full as it was over the Asumption Holiday (15 Aug). Having read the reviews on this site, I decided to give Casa Morisca a try and I am so pleased that we did. When I first contacted them they only had a Courtyard room available but I asked for a Miradore room if one became available. On arrival they told us that they had a cancellation and we were fortunate to have a beautiful room with a fabulous view of the Alhambra. The reception service, help and advice were fantastic, sorting out our Alhambra tour, cancelling the previous booking etc etc. We have travelled extensively around Spain and it certainly ranks with some of the best hotels we have stayed in. Getting there by car is difficult and we did eventually have to stop a taxi and follow it to the Hotel but that was a small price to pay for such a great hotel and a great location.
