Excellent place, I was double booked in my room and arrived late, when reception was already closed. I phoned the out of hours number and Marco, answered and immediately saw to it that me and my friend had beds arranged. Jaime was who received me and showed me to my room. excellent treatment and amazing experience given the circumstances. HIGHLY RECOMMED THIS PLACE!

El Granado is by far the best hostel I've stayed in, the staff are so friendly and welcoming. It was very clean and definitely felt like home from home. I would totally recommebd El Granado as a place to stay if you're ever visiting Granada.

Location, location, location
When we checked in we were given great information on things to do in Granada, circled on a map with directions on how to get there, what time, etc. The location was outstanding. The cathedral was easy to walk to and parking -- at a preferential rate for El Granado guests -- was REALLY close. We also appreciated being able to drop off our luggage early. So, to sum it up, very comfortable accommodations at a reasonable price, very helpful staff and, best of all: location, location, location.

Beautiful hostel, we stayed in the penthouse studio which was huge with a large sunny roof terrace. The staff were very friendly and the hostel was very conveniently located for everything in Granada, but was still lovely and peaceful. The studio was well equipped with a huge fridge, full hob, microwave and lots of pots and pans etc.

The apartment was absolutely perfect. Couldn’t have asked for a better setup. If there was anything I would change it would be to have someone on the property in the night to shush people partying in the street right below the windows at 3am. Only happened one night out of four though.

they are a hostel but have 2 or 3 apartments in the top floor. we stayed in one of them and it was very cute an comfy. The only thing that you need to consider is that they don't have elevator ( ince you have older people, young children or big luggage with you. lovely and helpful staff. Location can't be better!

Meh
This hostel is about convenience and nothing more. They lock the only common area at midnight and you're only left to be in your room, there's even a light timer on the outside foyer to keep you out (save energy). I also got bug bites, which I'll be emailing the hostel directly about for future travellers. Great location, not a great hostel to hang out and meet people
Response from Marco on 22 Jun 2018
We are sorry that you really seemed to have had an experience with us that was different from almost all our guests. You only stayed 1 night and must have missed the common area, rooftop terrace with great views of Granada, the sangria nights and tapas tours. The purpose of the light timer is not to keep people out of the foyer or save money - in fact, there are some smaller lights which are enough for sitting and chatting in the main patio. We do like to take care of our planet's limited resources. We have a professional pest control company periodically inspecting and treating the hostel.

A great find!
We stayed in one of El Granado's apartments and absolutely loved it! We arrived before normal check in hours hoping to leave our bags for a few hours, the staff member who greeted us was very kind and let us into the apartment early. The room (apartment style) was really nice and came with great wifi, a kitchen (with pots/pans/dishes/silverware all included), nice beds (3 including the couch), and a very nice shower. I have absolutely no complaints and would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Granada!

Characterful hotel convenient for city sights
The building and the rooms are full of character. Check-in was quick and easy and we were given loads of helpful advice for our stay in Granada. The room was clean, well equipped and comfortable. Everything worked just fine and it was great to be able to make a cup of tea. We didn't have breakfast in the hotel so can't comment on that. Our only problem was noise from the street, which is outside of the hotel's control. The hotel itself was quiet as was the local area - which is residential - most of the time. It just seems that everyone who had been out for a night on the town chose to walk down the street talking (or singing) as loudly as possible. I would add that we experienced the same problem at other city centre hotels on our trip. As we live in rural Norfolk I guess we're just not used to city life!

Adequate, quiet rooms, some unpleasant staff
One of the employees was very friendly and helped me calm down when I lost my ticket to the Alhambra, gave me advice on how to get another one. However, the bedrooms should be able to be opened from inside without the key... One of the other girls in my hostel room locked me inside the room when she left & I couldn't find my own key. I called reception asking for help & another employee answered but he seemed pretty unconcerned. He said he'd call me back & hung up. 10 minutes later I found my key & called reception to let them know & the same person answered, he hadn't left his chair! He didn't even remember what I was talking about! & then he said oh right okay and hung up. I think if a guest is locked inside a room, you should be a bit more urgent to help! He also got angry at me the next day after I checked out, for using the kitchen to make a quick lunch to take with me (because my train was not for another 12 hours). Apart from that, the hostel was pretty quiet although I think it was a bit expensive for what it was. But that seems to be true for all hostels.

A Hostel but my room felt like a hotel
I was absolutely delighted with my room and bathroom. Clean as clean could be and had everything I needed. Think snug, perfectly appointed Ikea quality. It was delightful. The staff were very helpful and put me at ease about my inability to speak Spanish. The optional breakfast was good quality. Altogether delighted with my stay and would certainly return.

Unbelievable value
We were warmly greeted upon arrival, the apartment style room is what I had booked and for 40 euro it was an absolute steal. The bathroom was recently renovated and the double bed was of hotel quality. The only thing to be aware of is that the other bed(s) in the room were fold out couches. If this would be an issue for you keep it in mind however for this cost, we had already received more than we were expecting.

El Granado was a great place to stay. It's close to everything that you need and the facilities are great. Large, private lockers in the dorm rooms, private reading lamps by the beds, nice kitchen, free tea and coffee all day, etc. The only small annoying thing was not being able to sit up in the bunk beds, but that's about it.

hôtel El Granado
L'hôtel est très bien situé dans le centre de Grenade. Il est très difficile de se garer dans le coin en dehors des parkings publics. L'hôtel avait un arrangement avec le parking public juste un peu plus bas à 12h pour 24 h mais il était complet. Donc nous avons garé notre voiture dans un parking 10m plus loin mais pas d'arrangement 18,50€ pour 24h, ce qui reste très correct.

グラナダ駅近辺
グラナダ駅から徒歩15分かからない所にあります。ちなみに、バスターミナルは市内から離れてるので中心部のホテルからはどこからも徒歩1時間はかかります。 比較的グラナダ駅に近い点、お得な点から宿泊しました。まず、ホテルの従業員の方が3週間の海外滞在の中で一番素晴らしい方でした。地図をくれて、アルハンブラ宮殿、レストラン、お土産屋さん、穴場などのアドバイスをくれました。チェックインまでの流れもスムーズでした。 ただ、部屋にもよると思いますが、6人部屋3段ベッド２つの部屋は、とにかくベッドの天井が近いです。他のホテルの半分くらいの高さしかないです。3段目は比較的広いかも。 それ以外の点は、コンセント１つあり、キッチン綺麗、広い、Wi-Fi部屋でも快適と問題なく泊まれるホテルです。
