Hotels near The Moor’s Chair (Saint Helen＇s Castle), Granada

The bedroom we were allocated was very clean, beautifully furnished, and had a nice balcony overlooking the Alhambra Palace. We also appreciated the welcoming & professional reception/housemaid/breakfast staff we encountered during our stay. Yes the WC flushes in this hotel - as some previous reviewers have noted - are memorable - not only for their notable flushing sound but also for their most impressive, reassuringly powerful & very hygienic WC flushing mechanisms - the best we've seen anywhere!!!!! So please keep them!!!

For a four star hotel the restaurant was only 1 star which is why I marked it so low. We were only here for 2 nights which was long enough! We has dinner in the first night, what a mistake! There was a very poor choice of dishes, nothing was labelled so you had no idea what to choose. Staff were too slow to top up dishes. Breakfast was absolute chaos. Only 2 drinks machines with long queues at both. Poor selection of food that was not replenished quickly enough for volume of diners. Our room was acceptable but nothing special. The hotel is at the top of a steep hill with one or two shops a short walk away, but no bars and the drinks in the hotel are very expensive. The one thing close by is the Alhambra. There are also bus stops nearby along with the hop on, hop off train that goes around Granada. The hotel will order a taxi for you, around €5 down to the centre of Granada. The Alhambra is not to be missed and I'd recommend the train that goes around the city.

I extended my stay at the hotel because there were issues with my booking at another hotel. The second stay was better than the first one and there were no visible stains. The hotel is located next to the Alhambra and it's an uphill walk if traveling from the city centre to the hotel on foot.

The location of the hotel is good, located in the city, not too far to the Alhambra Palace, the old building in Figure 4⃣️ is just a five-minute walk to the city, and it is also very close to the Granada Cathedral. The hotel business is good. The check-in time is 11 o'clock. The room was not cleaned. We checked in after we went to A Gong. The hotel was deposited at the front desk first. The room is very small, and there is not much room for three people. There are no quilts or blankets in the room at night, only thin sheets, the bedspread cover. The bathroom in the hotel has a lot of water, so the bath is very comfortable.

About location: Very convenient, quiet location, only five minutes walk to Columbus to meet Isabella. Regarding dining: The breakfast is very rich, and the hotel also provides afternoon tea, which is superb. About the room: Three people lived in a duplex building, which was very spacious. The only drawback is that the spiral staircase is a bit narrow. Regarding service: the staff are very enthusiastic and help guide the way with luggage. Antique courtyard building, heart water

Stayed for 2 nights on a room only basis. Spotlessly clean and very friendly staff. Rooms have a good mini fridge, and there is a kitchen next to Reception with a kettle, microwave, cutlery and crockery. Bus stop outside goes to the Alhambra for €1.40. Good selection of bars outside the hotel, and about a 10 minute stroll to the Cathedral, or Bib Rambla all on the flat. At the start of the narrow road to the hotel is a roundabout. Here is the Marquis’s sister hotel - great for breakfast. Scrambled eggs, bread, coffee and a large bowl of fruit & yogurt will set you up for the day for under €10. Just around the corner you can catch the C32 bus to Albaicin for €1.40. Lovely views going up a very steep climb. Get out at St Nicolas Square at the top. There are a couple of cafés next to the square where you can enjoy a coffee or beer, with the most amazing views of the Alhambra, then catch the bus or walk downhill (about 20 mins) back into the centre. We were worried about driving and parking in Granada, so we parked up in a little town outside of Granada, called El Fargue (coming in from Murcia), and caught the N8 bus in. Cost €1.40, and travels down the only main road through every hour, just after the hour, to Jardines del Triunfo, which is the other end of the main Gran Via de Colon - a 15 min flat stroll from the hotel, or a 5 min taxi ride. N8 bus returns to El Fargue from the same place at half past the hour. Saved the stress and expense of driving and parking in the City. Very successful. We will certainly do it again, and we will also stay at the Marquis Urban again.

Hemos estado unos días en Granada y no ha podido ser mejor la experiencia. El hotel cuenta con unas vistas a la Alhambra increíbles y la ubicación en pleno paseo de los tristes lo hace inmejorable. La atención de los empleados ha sido buenísima y son súper amables. Las habitaciones son amplias y las camas cómodas. Algo que creo que se podría mejorar es que no tiene nevera en las habitaciones ni tampoco televisión con internet. El baño tiene cierto olor como a agua estancada, pero imagino que será por el tipo de construcción antigua del edificio. Cuando vuelva a Granada repetiré seguro!!

The hotel is relatively small, but it is in an urban area not far from the Alhambra. The location is good and convenient for traveling and wandering around the characteristic urban area. To park, you need to pay for parking in the underground parking lot not far away (16 euros/night). The guy at the hotel's reception desk was very enthusiastic and patient, helping to book taxis and so on, and he took the trouble to answer questions.

As other have said around 10 minutes walk from City Centre but close to all attractions. Rooms are excellent, spacious and have a nice bathroom. Tea and cofee provided and rooms kept spotless by cleaners. Did not use amenities on offer or eat in the restaurant so cannot comment on quality. Only one minor negative was around wifi - brilliant in reception but 'patchy” in room and would often lose connectivity. Overall first rate hotel and would return.

Vakantiediscounter brengt ons in dit hotel. Wat onhandig gelegen hotel dat alleen via de achterkant te bereiken is. De ingang ligt aan een groot plein, ontoegankelijk voor auto’s. We lazen dat er beperkte parkeermogelijkheden zijn bij het hotel zelf en de parkeerplaatsen kosten 24 euro per nacht. Voor een of twee nachten is dit geen probleem, maar we verblijven 11 dagen dus we kozen ervoor om de nabij gelegen te gebruiken. Om daar vervolgens te komen is ern hell of a job. Granada blinkt niet uit in autovriendelijkheid. Uiteindelijk lukt het en voor € 80,- zijn we klaar. Het hotel oogt verzorgt en redelijk modern. Personeel is vriendelijk, kamers mooi en schoon. Koffie en thee op de kamer wordt iedere dag aangevuld. We krijgen bon voor spa. Deze moeten we nog benutten. We hebben alleen logies, maar de cafetaria bij het hotel ziet er leuk uit en de prijs van de consumpties is redelijk. Het hotel ligt op een te behappen loopafstand van het centrum. Met 20 minuten sta je bij de kathedraal. Voor het openbaar vervoer moet je eerst het grote plein voor het hotel oversteken.
