Hotel berhampiran Plaza Nueva, Granada Province

Excelente ubicación para recorrer Granada, a 5 minutos de la Catedral. Hotel limpio y cómodo y atención de primera de su personal, especialmente Alberto fue muy amable y nos dio recomendaciones de donde ir y comer. Si vuelvo a Granada vuelvo al Sacromonte.

Stayed for 2 nights on a room only basis. Spotlessly clean and very friendly staff. Rooms have a good mini fridge, and there is a kitchen next to Reception with a kettle, microwave, cutlery and crockery. Bus stop outside goes to the Alhambra for €1.40. Good selection of bars outside the hotel, and about a 10 minute stroll to the Cathedral, or Bib Rambla all on the flat. At the start of the narrow road to the hotel is a roundabout. Here is the Marquis’s sister hotel - great for breakfast. Scrambled eggs, bread, coffee and a large bowl of fruit & yogurt will set you up for the day for under €10. Just around the corner you can catch the C32 bus to Albaicin for €1.40. Lovely views going up a very steep climb. Get out at St Nicolas Square at the top. There are a couple of cafés next to the square where you can enjoy a coffee or beer, with the most amazing views of the Alhambra, then catch the bus or walk downhill (about 20 mins) back into the centre. We were worried about driving and parking in Granada, so we parked up in a little town outside of Granada, called El Fargue (coming in from Murcia), and caught the N8 bus in. Cost €1.40, and travels down the only main road through every hour, just after the hour, to Jardines del Triunfo, which is the other end of the main Gran Via de Colon - a 15 min flat stroll from the hotel, or a 5 min taxi ride. N8 bus returns to El Fargue from the same place at half past the hour. Saved the stress and expense of driving and parking in the City. Very successful. We will certainly do it again, and we will also stay at the Marquis Urban again.

El hostal esta bien, aunque las paredes de las habitaciones son casi de papel y escuchas a los demás, el baño es muy pequeño y compartido.

Perfectly located in the middle of the old town. Close to everything you want to see or eat in Granada. We felt living in the history for 2 days. The family room is great for a family of 4. Book early, as it could be very popular and booked out in peak season. The staff is super friendly

Things didn’t get off to a good start when our taxi driver drove us to the wrong Macia Hotel in Grenada. There are a few of them, so double check that your taxi driver verifies the address (and not just the hotel name). Being dropped off at the wrong hotel left us with story to tell and a couple fewer Euros for the second cab ride. Not the end of the world, though. And heck, we’re on vacation! The Hotel Macia Plaza is in the historic section of Grenada, facing a large plaza. The plaza features al fresco restaurants, and during our two say stay, impromptu parades and three different pairs of flamenco dancers! The area was wonderful for walking in all directions. We older folk took a five-minute, inexpensive taxi up to the Alhambra. After our Alhambra tour, we walked back to the hotel along a beautiful pedestrian walkway surrounded by a green forest and beautiful spring flowers. Our rooms (we had two) were disappointing. While clean, the rooms were very plain and tired. They lacked sufficient electrical outlets to plug in the tea kettle without unplugging the television. The front desk staff, however, was consistently helpful. Perhaps a reason the stay here is all the fun activity in the plaza. Certainly the price point was reasonable. Just don’t expect the Four Seasons.

Highly recommended. Very central. Close to all the attractions. Can walk to alhambra if you fit enough. Otherwise can take bis 30 to alhambra, bus station just a minute away.

I value central location and this was a good choice: The hotel is situated on the very central Plaza Nueva, although entrance is in a side street. When you check in you get a door code instead of a key, that was a first time for me, but it worked fine. I didn't have breakfast, but the square has several outside cafes serving coffee, juice and tostadas when you need that. Also a few illegal immigrants who sell Gucci handbags off the pavement and there is quite a bit of noise from traffic and various other people around, but all in all that didn't disturb me too much. I woke up early to climb up to Alhambra and the location is excellent for that. I give a plus for the room having a water boiler, so I could have a wake-up cup of coffee in bed, which I love. Will stay there again.

My daughter and I were only able to stay one night in this lovely hotel, but I wish we'd been able to stay longer. Pros: - Everything was clean, new and fresh in appearance, and functional. - The breakfast included in our booking had a nice variety of foods, more than I expected from such a small hotel. Everything was at a good temperature and tasty. - The location is on the way up the hill to the Alhambra! When I was in better shape, I could have taken this walk easily, but it was very good exercise for me even though challenging in my current condition. I liked that we did not have to take a bus or other transportation to get from the hotel to the Alhambra. We had bought tickets for a night visit to the Nasrid Palaces, which included a visit the following day. Both times we could just walk out the front door of the hotel and directly up to the Alhambra! - The location also was within easy walking distance to the cathedral, shops, & restaurants (down the hill.) - Our lovely modern room included a ”Japanese-style” toilet. - The room was not large, but even so, it contained a safe, plenty of space for clothing/luggage and also a small table, fridge, and chairs. So after our night Alhambra visit, when we brought back some take-out food for a midnight supper, we had a place to eat it. - When we first arrived at the hotel, we enjoyed a meal at the rooftop bar/restaurant, with a lovely view of the Alhambra. Everything was quite tasty, & our waiter was patient with our poor Spanish abilities. Then when it started to sprinkle, he immediately set up a new table for us that was under a roof, so we could continue enjoying our meal while out of the rain. - The rooftop bar accepted Diners Club, so we were able to avoid a currency conversion fee charged by my other credit cards. - Our room was able to accommodate an extra twin bed. I don't remember now how I arranged with the hotel to have this extra bed, but because I was traveling with my daughter rather than with a romantic partner, we both appreciated being able to sleep in separate beds. - The staff we interacted with were all wonderful! Friendly and helpful! The front desk ladies kindly gave us directions to stores, lots of info on the area, and called a taxi for us when we were ready to leave. - For a small hotel, they really thought of everything, and they even had a handy stand of umbrellas to borrow if needed. We did not stay long enough to try out the gym or library this time, but it's nice that they are there. Cons? - Our shower was nice looking, but it had transparent walls, and was not in a separate bathroom. There was an opaque design covering the part of the shower where one's private body parts would be, but it might be awkward to use if one were staying with friends. (It could be nice with a romantic partner, though!) - The location might not be ideal for those with mobility issues. My recommendation in that case would be to look for a place down the hill where it's a bit flatter, and

Our stay in Inglaterra was unexpectedly pleasant!The hotel is established in an old building so well kept and beautiful! Very clean,extremely friendly with all of the people who works there being so polite and willing!Surprisly,everybody spoke English! Peaceful although it’s located in one of the most popular pedestrians of Granada center. Highlight:the breakfast buffet! I totally recommend it!
