We knew this was going to be a walking break around Granada so the local was second to none. Staff were excellent especially the breakfast staff. A couple of bug bears...1) No facilities for tea or coffee in the room 2) They charge for water in the mini bar which was a first for us over the many years we stayed at various hotels. A cup of Tea is a must on returning to the room after a long day out exploring hence the drop in our overall rating of the Sercotel Granada.

The hotel was located on a back alley but near a main street in a safe enough area. My plane arrived very early so I came into the charming lobby just to drop my bag, but the clerk wanted to check me in early into a room in the semi-basement rather than store my bag. Because I had a half-price rate through Expedia and planned to be out sightseeing most of the time, I accepted the lower level room, dropped my bag and left. I do greatly appreciate the early check in, and the room itself was well-appointed, well-maintained, and spotlessly clean (kudos to the cleaning staff). Nonetheless, it was still disappointing. When I got back and opened the curtains, I found that my window faced a narrow alley across from a cement wall on which graffiti was scrawled, and there were bars on the window. At that moment, I felt that I had been judged by the clerk as less worthy of a courtyard room and disappointed that such a nice hotel would utilize rooms that required bars on the window. I was further disappointed while trying to sleep that I could hear someone’s high heels clacking on the floor overhead as well as drumming through the walls,either from a band or maybe from a radio, until around midnight when it quieted down. I give this hotel high marks for overall quality but would personally never stay there again.

The hotel is lovely and, with the exception of one unfriendly receptionist, the staff was very accommodating. When we complained about the repeatedly unfriendly comportment of this receptionist, the manager offered the breakfasts on the house, which was excellent customer service. The hotel is very clean and comfortable, and conveniently located.

Great hotel for short stay in Granada
My son & I enjoyed 2 nights at the Palacio De Los Gamboa. It was well located in the center of the city, although expect a bit of a trek if you are walking to The Alhambra, it was perfectly doable and you can get a bus there if needs be. The hotel interior is lovely, with comfortable bedrooms, a great shower and a good breakfast buffet. Getting there by car is a bit tricky, but we managed it using Google maps, the last street you go down is very narrow, so I wouldn't have liked to be in a larger car than the small hire car we had. All in all a good option for a short break in Granada.

This was a good hotel. Very conveniently and centrally located. The room was comfortable. It was lovely to have a real door separating the bathroom from the main area. The closet was spacious. A few things that could be improved upon: 1) for ppl taller than 5ft 5in, the beds are a little short. We used the bench extra pillow to extend the length. 2) Granada is a such beautiful city, with so much culture, vibrancy, and charm, but the hotel completely did NOT reflect that. Bare walls, no charm, no style. It was a perfectly functional room, but we left early because there was no comfort or amenities to enjoy

The location is the historic area is superb - walk to everything a few short blocks to the Cathedral, Alcazar, and Bell Tower. We only needed transportation to get to the Plaza di Spagna because we'd already done a day's worth of sightseeing! Wonderful restaurants and cafes less than a block away. The Hotel has great beds, bedding, space in the room, storage for personal items, place to sit down and write in journal. The concierge, Mr. Abel Lara, was simply superb and helped us define the perfect length of stay in Seville, recommended a perfect day trip to Cordoba, and found a great local guide for our visit to the Cathedral and Alcazar! Other hotel staff were very good. This stay in Sevilla was magical and we can't thank the hotel enough for helping to make it so special! Grazie mille!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While I wish you had a better experience, it is feedback like this that we learn from and use to improve. We work hard to deliver an exceptional guest experience, and it's apparent in this case that we fell short. the room you booked is a standard room. Superior rooms are the only rooms where we have a coffee machine or kettle, so it isn't the category you booked. Perhaps you may have been confused when making your reservation. My colleague probably could not change your room as there were no rooms available at the time as it was a different category. We always try to offer the best solutions to our customers, it is clear that it was a misunderstanding. Highly appreciate your interest in helping us improve the quality of our service by assisting us with your stay reviews.Regards,

We enjoyed our stay here very much. Be advised, if you are driving, the parking garage can be challenging. We have found this to be the case throughout Spain. Just don’t rent a big car. The hotel is charming, the breakfast was excellent. The room was smallish, and it took a bit of time before the air conditioner cooled it off. But once cool, it was fine. It was, of course, very hot in Spain during our visit. I would highly recommend this property.
