Real reviews from guests
"Great service! Bed was huge and the rooms were very nicely decorated and super modern with effective aircon and great water pressure on the shower. Excellent location. Tip: the hotel is not directly above any bars or restaurants which is amazing for the location! However, if you are especially noise sensitive, do request an internal patio facing room. The small disturbance when the bars closed didn’t bother us as we are used to living in a city centre in Spain!"
"Great little hotel with a nice traditional feeling room. It feels much better than its two-star rating suggested and fitting of the boutique in name. The room comes with everything from smart thermostat to refrigerator and AC. Location is great with major attractions and bus stops at your foot step."
"Absolutely adored this hotel and I literally felt depressed when it was time to leave. It is a historical home converted into a boutique hotel and I believe it is family owned. There are some quirks that come with this but the overall experience is so worth it, don’t let any nit-picky reviews dissuade you. The beautiful floors and beams are hundreds of years old. My room (Mariana) was ginormous with super high ceilings. The staff is warm and will..."
"Just had a wonderful vacation in Granada while staying in this lovely hotel in a newly renovated, historic building close to the city center. Rooms were elegant and featured modern furnishings and fixtures against a backdrop of original mediterranean styles, which included ceramic floors. All members of the staff go out of their way to enhance and support customers. I expect to return."
"Great hotel, great location, great value, great people. Feels like a newly remodeled hotel in the heart of Granada. Walking distance to everything in the city center. People were friendly and amazing and help us get tickets to the La Alhambra when they were sold out the day we were looking to go. I highly recommend this hotel!"
