Toilets in the lobby weren’t open and staff weren’t particularly helpful or friendly unlike the Parador de Granda where they couldn’t be more welcoming and helpful.

Fantastic location and views.

Breakfast wasn’t worth it

Very comfortable bed . Beautiful outdoor dining and gardens.

We preferred our meals in town over the restaurant in the hotel.

Perfect location.

The dinner is outdoor so we have ants and bugs on the table.

The hotel is beautiful and the rooms are comfortable. Both dinner and breakfast are good. It is next to Alhambra but a little away from the town. We used uber and it is convenient and not expensive.

Too short, perhaps?

The very best location to visit Alhambra. Expensive but unforgettable… restaurant affordable, food excellent, breathtaking views and kind service… what else?

Small room. No pool.

Location is amazing and staff were excellent. Tye room is very comfortable but small and it is disappointing not to have a pool.

The very steep hill down to the town!

The location was superb, within the Alhambra complex, so very easy to visit the alcazabar, Nasrid palace and Generalife gardens. It was wonderful to walk in the gardens of the hotel in the evening when the tourists had gone. The service was very good, the rooms were comfortable, the breakfast was delicious and we loved most of all the peace and quiet, to hear the birds sing and to smell the perfume of the flowers.

You couldn't get a better location to visit the Alhambra! The staff couldn't be more helpful. Great outdoor space and gardens. Very nice breakfast, great terrace and a lovely restaurant for our evening meals, we loved it!

Just to mention that on arrival at reception, I was encouraged to upgrade my room to a suite at an additional cost of €600 by one staffer….he then dropped price by few hundred euros when I declined. Was uncomfortable and unwelcome pressure. My booked room was perfect.

Beautiful gardens, courtyards and outside dining terrace with wonderful views. A spacious well decorated room with gorgeous views of Lilly pond. Staff at restaurant and most staff at reception were wonderful. Location brilliant.

It was very challenging to find by car. The breakfast buffet was awkwardly placed in a tight corner, making accessing the food difficult. Service at dinner in the main dining room was very awkward. When we first arrived, staff took our orders promptly. However, no staff checked to see if food was OK, or if we wished to order more drinks or dessert. The process at the end of the meal for settling the bill was not communicated and turned into a long bungled process of correcting the bill.

Location was unparalleled, directly adjacent to the Alhambra. Rooms were very clean and the bed was very comfortable. Food quality and selection at breakfast were great. We enjoyed a very pleasant lunch outside on the terrace.

Quite hard to find!

Amazing location - like an oasis in the city - surrounding by stunning gardens. Very calm and quiet - lots of birdsong.

Excellent breakfast. Friendly helpful staff. Availability of parking with a reservation.

The AC was not working and it was warm/hot. But as the evening wore on, the room cooled and it was better.

Location, location, location. Can’t be beat. Great to walk around the Alhambra “after hours”. Beautifully updated property to boot. Much more modern than most paradors.

Breakfast room, lounge and restaurant were rather starkly decorated.

It’s incredible location within the Alhambra, views, history and delightful gardens and cafeteria terrace.

Wonderful stay. We had a room on an upper floor and a view of The Alhambra out to the Summer Palace and gardens. Superb dinner and breakfast. Staff were helpful and informative.

There was nothing particularly bad about it. I would say it was a little disappointing that the restaurant menu was the same day and night. However, I was satisfied with the quality of the food.

The hotel is located next to the Alhambra, making it a great location for visiting the Alhambra. The building is old as it is a Parador, but the inside is very clean and well kept. The staff was also very kind and made my stay very comfortable.

1) Minor, but I couldn't pay for my room with cash because we booked 2 rooms (my friend's room & mine) so there was just 1 bill, and even when our separate charges were below 1,000 EUR but because the total bill was over 1,000 EUR, I had to use my credit card to pay. 2) Breakfast was very "so so". The hot "to order" breakfast choices weren't good, they certainly were NOT made to order, more like they were already made & in the kitchen waiting to be served - my Spanish omelette was hard & cold, I expected more from the Parador.

Liked the location although I note that there was at least 1 other hotel within the vicinity of the Alhambra, so the Parador isn't the only one BUT the views from the Parador (from the bedrooms & from the outdoor terrace) are fantastic. Good size bedrooms, satisfactory amenities, nice bathroom with bidet directly opposite the toilet (I usually note them aligned side by side in other places), lovely building & outside garden, a tranquil place to enjoy the sights. A one night splurge to be close to the Alhambra was good.

It is absurd that you spend € 1,000.00 per night for a room and that you don’t automatically have tickets to visit the Alhambra. We had to spend half a day to find a VIP agency and Aguilera to manage to get tickets.

Location, architecture, gardens, food at restaurant very good.
