The Puertas de las Granadas is a small hotel and the rooms are not huge but it more than makes up for this! It has a great location right in the centre of the City, on the route to the Alhambra. The rooms are modern with good sound-proofing on the doors, air-conditioning, TV they offer free internet access, have a small balcony overlooking the city and a cute little courtyard garden where you are able to take drinks or food during the day (which you can bring in from outside the hotel) if you are seeking a quiet spot to get away from the buzz of the City. They offer good information and on booking on a hotel booking website, the hotel itself had emailed within an hour to offer me their services booking tickets for the Alhambra, giving me directions from the bus station etc. I would recommend this hotel!

Some of the other reviews say that some rooms were noisy because of a bar across the street but it would appear that the bar has closed and the street is very quiet in the evenings.

From the moment we walked in the door, we had a great feeling about this place. It is in a great position to walk to many of the attractions and restaurants. The check in service was exceptional. We were pleasantly reminded that there are indeed people working in the service/hospitality industry who genuinly care about their clients and are keen to not only assist their clients, but to excite them about their stay.
The hotel seems to have been built or renovated recenlty. The modern rooms are cute and clean. We were fortunate to have a room with a small, enclosed balcony looing down on the street below. Although the hotel is small, they have done a great job to open up an upper level terrace, as well as provide a computer area with internet access. This enabled you to spend time in the hotel without being stuck in your room.
About 50 metres down the street was the Plaza Nueva, where we were able to catch the small mini-buses to take us to a variety of locations without the need to take taxis. Off the Plaza Nueva, Calle Elvira is a great little street to wander at night time with a variety of quaint restaurants bars and shops.
On the whole I truly thought that this hotel was the best value for money hotel we stayed in throughout our 6 weeks in Europe. A great find.

very friendly staff. clean rooms. great location near the alhambra and in the old town.

We stayed here at the end of a 3 city trip in May. I noticed on a previous review a comment about the helpful lady on reception. If it was the lady when we visited she should win an award. A bright sunnt disposition and extremely helpful. She even tried in vain to see if she could get us tickets for a Roger Walters concert on the day of the event.

Our room was clean and the bathroom excellent. The location couldn't have been better, with just a walk up the hill to the Alhambra Palace. If the weather had been sunny it would have been a perfect stay. I don't suppose it's fair to blame the hotel for this.
