Carmen de la Alcubilla del Caracol

Granada is an interesting place to visit. You have so much to see and o much to do. At the end of the day, one usually needs a break and a quiet place to rest in. A comfortable cozy place. If this is what you seek, this is the place for you .||Alejandro welcomed us and guided us on how to park our car (yes parking is available for a fee depending on availability). He as helpful and thorough in explaining what are the different activities to do in the city. They asked about your plans and tickets to Alhambra making sure they explain what to do etc.||We had a wonderful room with a balcony and the view of the city. Beautiful to watch both sunrise and sunset. The rooms were cleaned regularly and the beds comfy. ||Breakfast was nice. Robin made sure we were always well fed before we do our morning trek around the city.

The hotel is perfectly located. Short trip to the historic part of the city and to the Alhambra. The hotel is very clean and has a personal touch - cozy and and stylish. The view is excellent ... but different for every room - so check if possible. The staff and the owner Alessandro are very helpful and service oriented - this helps additionally to enjoy the stay. Consider that in winter times the nights are cold - prepare with some additional socks and warm bed wear. We really enjoyed the stay ... and if we returned to Granada the Alcubilla would be our first option.

Alejandro was an amazing host, the inn has lovely grounds and gorgeous views of the city and Sierra Nevada mountains, and my room was huge and comfortable with 2 French doors to open for those views. The location is wonderful for accessing the world-famous Alhambra nearby and also walking down to the historic cathedral and town. They had a nice breakfast & honor bar situation too. Would definitely stay here again!

A gem in Granada! My husband and I stayed 3 nights in late April 2025. We were blown away by the hospitality and kindness of the owner Alejandro and highly recommend this very special boutique hotel. Our arrival coincided with Spain's national power outage and Alejandro handled concerns in such a calm and reassuring way that was so appreciated at the time. Everything was wonderful. Thank you Alejandro for a fabulous stay.

Delightful, historic accommodation, very close to the Alhambra, with great views of the old town and beautiful garden (with a number of shaded spots to enjoy a glass of beer or wine (or indeed, anything else!) and watch the sun go down). Interior rooms stylishly decorated and bedrooms very comfortable. The host, Alejandro was charming (as were all the staff) and full of great advice about the best places to visit and to eat and drink. A very relaxed vibe and the ideal location for both a cultural visit and a leisurely stay.

Really perfect little hotel. Perched on the hillside so great views and calm after the hecticness of Granada. Very easy walking distance to The Alhambra - wander up to the Parador and have a drink in its terrace. Alejandro is very attentive and is a mine of historical information which he's delighted to share. Rooms are simple, clean and many have cute and remarkably private little terraces. Can't recommend enough.

This is the hotel you want to book for your stay in Granada. Everything here is perfect and the only issue is that you have to leave when your vacation ends. The location, cleanliness, decor and attention to detail are all excellent. The views were a gem of the city in itself. The private view of the city in all its splendor was definitely a top 3 attraction of the city for us. Starting or ending a day on one of the multiple terasses with a drink and some food was really special. But above all of the above, the staff was incredible. Alejandro is a perfect host, the likes of which I have rarely seen. Robin was perfectly attentive to our morning needs and had some great recommendations for us. Lola had an incredible motherly feel and we felt at home as she prepared custom breakfasts for us. An incredible experience, can only celebrate, recommend and hope to be back again soon. Thanks for everything!

You will never find this jewel unless you know about it. It is as if you are visiting an old friend in their house and staying a few nights as the owner gave us such a welcome and plenty of information: more than full service. The view of the city is great and one is only a 10 min. walk from the center of town and many places to eat. In the opposite direction the Alhambra is only 10 min. I really do not know what else I could have asked for with such great hospitality. Make sure you do not book all the rooms, as I want to return.
