Granada Hotels

The Alhambra is easily the most beautiful and magnificent aspect of the small city of Granada.

Once you have exhausted the almost endless joys of Granada’s open-air wonders, from the Sacromonte, to Albayzín, from the Alhambra to the many small plazas and parks, then perhaps it will be time to seek refuge indoors.

The Albayzín district of Granada is probably the most famous district in the city. The entire district has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

To wonder around the Albaicín is to make a trip to its moriscs roots in as well as an enjoyment for the senses. To cross its labyrinth of narrow streets perfumed [...]
