In late April 2012, my wife and I spent two nights at the Santa Isabel la Real Hotel in Granada. Located high in the hills of the Albayzin neighborhood, we were greeted graciously on arrival, given basic information about nearby restaurants and scenic overlooks and told about the transportation options into the heart of Granada. If not driving, you are... More

My friends and family have been staying at this hotel since it opened. The family who run it are so welcoming and cared for my elderly parents so well that they have returned again and again. The hotel itself is charming, a restored Carmen with inner patio. Breakfast is plentiful, great home made lemonade and lovely cakes. There is a... More

Let me begin by saying, we would stay here again. The hotel is lovely. More in a moment. Getting to the hotel was quite the challenge. Our taxi from the airport dropped us at Placa Nueva, and the driver told us that cars could no longer drive into the Albayzin. He waved his arms in the general direction of the... More

We were very pleased to stay in the old town, with great views from the nearby Mirador square. Glad we didn't have to drive here - our lovely young driver who brought us from Malaga was sweating buckets by the time he found the hotel! If you are driving you will be well advised to read the tips from other... More

In company with our good friends, we recently stayed at this hotel for a couple of nights at the end of a trip around Andalusia. Initially the drive to the hotel was a little tense, particularly as there were (and maybe still are) some major roadworks taking place in the centre of Granada. This was followed by an 'interesting experience'... More

We stayed for 3 nights in April 2012. Friendly helpful staff (explained local buses, how to get to attractions, told us about the Easter festival parades that we knew nothing about). Lovely hotel with central courtyard and they can arrange parking in underground car park. €14/day but parking in this part of towm is a nightmare VERY narrow streets and... More

We stayed at Santa Isabel la Real in Granada and could not have had a better situation. The hotel is in the old section of the city, and a short walk up the hill from the hotel takes you to a large park area with a spectacular view of the Alhambra. You can either find a spot on the ledge... More

More a b and b than a hotel but lovely room, friendly service and a very good breakfast. Good position in the Albaycin, 10 minute walk down hill to the main town and a bus to come back up. Our room faced the courtyard so was quiet but had no view. Wandering round the old quarter was delightful and the... More

A small, family run, hotel which is a really charming place to stay. Set in the heart of the Albaicin district the hotel is brilliantly situated with bars and restaurants within walking distance and Plaza St Nicolas, offering magnificent views of the Alhambra, just up the road. The centre of Granada (Plaza Nueva) is easily reached by the regular mini-bus... More
