My daughter and I are travelers. We have visited many places within the US, Mexico, Canada and Europe. A month ago we visited Spain, our motherland. La Madre Patria. This words are very often use by Latin Americans when talking about this beautiful country. Needless to say, after hours of traveling by train from Madrid to Granada, we were happy when we checked in at Abadia Hotel. We were amazed how friendly the staff was. My daughter and I were very impressed when listening to them greeting and talking to the guests in different languages, not to mentioned how exquisite their Spanish was! Abadia Hotel has so much more to offer then many other hotels I have stayed in before. The staff was very knowledgeable of the Andalusia Region. Fermin one of the staff members gave us tips of places to visit outside the city limits. We decided to follow his advised and visited The Alpujarras, a breath taken place where one will find, Capileira, the tallest village in Spain. What a wonderful and healthy experience. I, a writer for children's books, am now inspired to write a tale on this region. If you visit Granada make sure you make Abadia Hotel your hotel. Thank you Jose Antonio, Roseline and Fermin for 7 wonderful days in your hotel.
