Before I write my glowing review of Villa Oniria in Granada, Spain, I just wanted to establish that I am not in the employment of the hotel or any partner organisation, I am merely a visitor who completely loved the place!

First things first. I am in my early twenties and went to Granada for a few nights with my girlfriend. I booked the hotel through an internet website for around £100 a night.

I'm not sure what the history behind the hotel is, but the Villa Oniria is a beautiful building located on a backstreet in the centre of Granada. The location is just right, far enough back from one of the main roads in the city to avoid the noise of the hustle and bustle, but still only minutes from restaurants, sights, shops and other conveniences.

The decor is stunning. Marble on the floors, a serene water feature in the lobby and big winding staircase leading up to all floors. There is a lovely bar area and restaurant (which not uncommon to most hotels is quite expensive relative to restaurants in the city, though wiht very nice food) and a really nice outside area with tables attached to the restaurant and seating for the bar and for relaxing, along with more running water and nice plants.

As far as I could tell the hotel seems quite small, with only about 30 rooms or so. This makes for a quaint atmosphere and good service.

There is a really really nice spa (which disappointingly costs 20 euros per person). It includes a small swimming pool with some high powered water jets, presumably for some kind of massage effect, a jacuzzi and a sauna. The whole thing is dimly lit and absolutely ideal for relaxing after a day of sightseeing!

I think we were given an upgrade on our room which was much bigger than we had expected based on other reviews on TripAdvisor. As per the rest of the hotel, the decor and furnishings were excellent. The bed was probably one of the most comfortable I have ever slept in! We had a little balcony over the street and another window overlooking the outside dining area.

The staff were very helpful, answering any of our queries and organising various things for us. To put the icing on the cake, the hotel provides a free taxi service!

As you can probably tell I enjoyed my stay in villa Oniria, and I would highly recommend it, especially to young and older couples.

Our room was with skylights rather than windows and it did feel a bit small but it was good for what we needed in Granada and an excellent value compared to other places we visited in Spain. The bathroom was small but very nice. We really enjoyed sitting in the garden in the afternoon and found the staff to be very helpful. The location is great and quieter than the other property that I was considering. The hotel even provided a car for us to pick up our rental car after our stay which was wonderful.

Beautifully restored and decorated small "bistro style" hotel with a peaceful garden. Our room though not large never felt small - we overlooked the garden with a view of the tall palm tree and the sound of the fountains playing gently.

On asking if it was a first visit to Granada, the staff had no hesitation in producing a map to indicate and describe the best streets for tapas, view of the Alahambra, shopping, etc. They could not have been more helpful. My husband is a designer, as a couple we are often super critical particularly where something has clearly been "designed" but genuinely believe this to be one of the finest hotels where we have stayed in Spain and certainly rate it well above any we visited while staying in Granada.

I notice that other reviewers have commented on being charged for the Spa but this was not our experience. The staff seemed to genuinely want our feedback on how to improve the hotel so perhaps that has been taken on board.

In our view it was situated in a great central location - everywhere in the city within walking distance. Also close to bus route incl the tourist bus, restaurants and shopping areas.

The only disappointment was that there was no information about the hotel in the room - the staff were "waiting for it to be printed". I think this is a case of feeling that if the information did not "fit the brand" it should not be produced at all - a mistake I fear - we did not know, without asking, when breakfast was served, what time the spa closed, and who know what else! However, we would go back again and again and again and take friends and family.

I have to admit that I had high expectations when travelling to this hotel but my stay at the Villa Oniria was over the top.

THe location was great, the rooms are fantastic although maybe a little bit small. THe staff was very helpfull and friendly. We did not try the restaurant but it seemed to be quite good, maybe next time.

I will recommend this hotel to all my friends when visiting Granada, the city is fantastic itself and if you can combine your trip with this hotel your holiday will be fantastic!
