Santa Isabel la Real Hotel

Buena ubicación y vistas espectaculares a la Alhambra con Sierra Nevada al fondo. El desayuno variado, bueno y suficiente. El personal fantástico, muy amables y atentas. Volveré próximamente.

We loved this little hotel which was part of a centuries-old monastery; it perfectly suited the ambiance for a visit to the Alhambra. As there are less than 15 rooms (I think), it was as quiet as a monastery! The staff was gracious and welcoming. Our room (on the third/top level) was huge even by North American standards and had a couch and a small dining table. The location is excellent as it is only about a 5 minute walk to the famous viewpoint where everyone meets in the evening to see the lights on the Alhambra as the sun sets and darkness falls. By the way, there is an excellent view during the daytime as well. As my husband has mobility issues, an extra benefit is that the bus stops literally at the door step of the hotel and takes you to the entrance to the Alhambra (or to several other worthy stops such as the Cathedral if that is part of your plans).

Be careful when you leave the hotel as the door opens directly onto a very narrow street and cars go by very quickly. If you are not watching, you can step through the door into the path of oncoming traffic!

A family hotel in a great location in the district Albayzin. Nice hosts who take great care of their guests. Only 10 Minuten walk to Plaza Nueva and the sights in the city centre. Many nice restaurants and bars in the immediate vicinity.

All was well

In great historic location very close to AlhAmbra
