After reading some reviews here I wonder if we stayed at the same hotel.
We travelled to Granada from Seville. Our hotel there was modern and to be honest almost out of character to the area it was located. This hotel lived up to how I expected an old Andalucian (former) palace to be.
Yes, it was quirky. Yes, you have to walk up a very small alley to the hotel enterence but once inside that huge old door, it felt like we had be transported back a good few hundred years.
We loved the old courtyard around which most of the rooms are located on three different levels. The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating and tried hard to help us with our many questions about the area.
We loved our room. It was not large but again, it's style and uniqueness reflected the age of the hotel. It was spotlessly clean, had TV and minibar and the bathroom was a good size with underfloor heating. We had no problems with the bed as some folks have commented on. It was European firm, just what we are used to.
Breakfast was pretty substantial with lots of choices and coffee/tea were on hand all day, into the evening at no extra cost.
Would I go back to the Casa del Capitel Nazari? You bet I would.
Folks have to remember that this place reflects the city itself. Old, charming, unique and as I've already said, quirky. Just the kind of place I prefer against modern monstrosities too often found to be intruding into many of the Moorish cities.
