“Noisy, stank of smoke and half asleep”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 April 2010

This hotel is located several miles to the south-east of Granada. We booked it because it looked nice and peaceful. However, for a start it was extremely difficult to find. Online maps mark it in various locations, none of which is correct. the hotel's own website map marks it in the middle of the Sierra Nevada mountains! I eventually tracked it down on Google Earth by literally examining one building after another. It would be hopeless staying here without a car, while on the other hand having a car is a liability. It's a good 20 minutes into Grenada where of course there is nowhere to park.
The hotel is a strange mixture of graveyard and outright bedlam. There were almost no guests at all when we there (oddly the week after Easter when one might have expected it to be busy) which ought to have made for peace and quiet though it was exceptionally weird being the only guests in the restaurant. Unfortunately, the hotel is the local social centre which meant that on our first night there was a massive wedding which went on all night and ended at 0630 with car horns being fired off by drunken revellers. These included the bride and groom who, you would think, might have had something better to do by that time of night.
The next night ought to have been more peaceful but sadly the hotel is on a very steep hill. This means a relentless parade of local oafs driving up and down on shrieking two-stroke mopeds. Because of the isolated location you can hear them coming for ages, screaming past, and then disappearing for ages. The steep hill challenges the moped engines to their very limits, hence the noise. The next downside is also linked to its social centre role. The bar is effectively the local pub and is filled all day with Spanish men who smoke and drink. The smoke pervades the whole downstairs and leaks up the stairwell to round the rooms.
The 'full' breakfast isn't very 'full'. A couple of pieces of toasted roll, tea or coffee, fruit juice and marmalade etc and that's your lot:no ham or anything cooked. It's essentially a slightly elaborate continental breakfast - nothing better. Not what you expect of a Best Western.
For all that the staff are polite though when we checked out the barman had to ring the owner to drive down and run our card. The rooms are clean, comfortable and well-presented and there is free wireless internet.
The upshot is I couldn't recommend a stay here. It isn't convenient, it is very noisy in the most unexpected way, and it stinks of smoke. Oh, yes, and the pool wasn't open either.

Even it is not in Granada ( 15/20mn by car) and seems a little bit lost, there is a beautilfull view and it is quiet.

Romms are confortable ( no heater in the bathroom it can be cold during winter)

Friendly staff, free parking, breakfast is ok.

Flat TV, internationel channels.
