From the immediate check-in, the Puerta was a gem. The young woman working the reception was not only beautiful, her willingness to help us navigate Granada was above and beyond. After days of odd ball check in hosts, her stunning looks and over the top service was a pleasure.

The Hostel was my favorite for Spain. I like non traditional hostels, those that reflect architectual history with modern amenities. The Puerta was right on! And in August's heat, the AC was spot on. Location is NOT within steps of Alhambra but within steps of the best the town center offers. Only the Parador and Hotel America are steps from the Alhambra. The bus stop to the monument was steps away and an ease to navigate.

As for the hotel, very modern but in an elegant building. Excellent features like breakfast, terraces, and state of the art rooms. The internet access was most helpful and appreciated.

Finally, as we closed up for another long evening, the young woman (another) was again most helpful with superb customer service and like her co-worker, another beautiful young woman. As we checked out, the next morning, it all came together; the manager / owner (?) worked the dek and she was not only very concerned about impeccible customer service, she, too, was a very attractive woman as well. This hotel left a wonderful impression in light of location, service, and beauty.

This hotel was a fantastic find thanks to trip advisor! I had read the good reviews on this site and decided to book myself a few nights. It's location is perfect, located on the road that leads from Plaza Nueva (Old Granada's central square) to the Alhambra (the main and most magnificent tourist attraction in the city). To walk to the plaza it takes all of 30 seconds, and 15 minutes (warning, a steep climb - you may want to take the Alhambra Bus from Plaza Nueva instead) to the Alhambra. The front desk staff were friendly, helpful and attractive (it's true!). All spoke flawless english and provided each guest with a map of Granada and highlighted the tourist attractions and suggested good walking tour itineraries to you upon check in without being asked. The hotel is very clean and is housed in a 19th century house. Obviously recently redone in a very modern style, the rooms feature attractive laminate flooring, wood pannelled walls, modern decor and adequate sized bathrooms, with frosted glass doors and stainless steel. Each room has an individual air conditioner which was a blessing in the blistering August heat. The hotel also features an affordable and very tasty buffet breakfast and FREE internet! There is a lovely patio on the 2nd floor and a "mirador" on the roof. It seems they have several tiers of room quality. I stayed in the second tier room called "gomerez", it was very large compared to the size of the hotel (i think there are 16 rooms in total) and there was no noise from the street. The only caution I would give is if you're a light sleeper be careful, the walls are quite thin and you can hear people in other rooms. I didnt have a problem, mostly because the nights were quiet and I sleep like a log, but others might not. For 60 euros a night, this hotel was a STEAL. I loved it and will stay there again if I ever return to Granada.

I booked this hotel through a hotel booking web site. Out of all the hotels I booked, this is the only one sent me a direct confirmation and provided assistance. I had several questions and they gave me all the information I needed. The staff were friendly and eager to help.
The room is small but with everything you need. The patio is a nice place to hang out in a hot afternoon.
Great location and convenient access to major attractions.

We loved the decor - clean, simple and cool. Everything still looks quite new, and the air conditioning was excellent (and needed!). Our room was probably one of the larger ones, at the back and looking over the lovely patio - though not huge, it was what we expected for the city centre in terms of size. However, our friends had a room on the first floor that was quite small and had no window - just a skylight. When they asked for a better one, the staff said they could move them, but just for one night and they would have to move them again the second night (it's quite a small hotel). As they decided not to do that, they gave them their breakfast for free. I would happily stay here again, though be careful to request a room on an upper floor.
