Gar Anat Hotel Boutique

We absolutely LOVE this hotel! Housed in a 16th century building with only 15 rooms, Gar Anat is the epitome of old town Granada. Elizabeth greeted us when we arrived and was a plethora of knowledge about the area. We were in a superior room which comfortably slept all three in our family. The room was a nice size with a larger sized bathroom. Señora Carmen makes an incredible breakfast buffet and the tea service in the afternoon is a nice way to enjoy a siesta before heading out for the evening. If you’re local for a hotel with character, look not further.

A truly wonderful hotel. Our room Leon el Africana was huge, 3 windows with balconies and a distant view of the Alhambra from the bathroom window. As you enter the hotel it is like going back in time, very historic and smells amazing. A fountain trickles and relaxing music is in the background. Staff are very friendly and helpful, booked flamenco with dinner and Hammam for us before we arrived. Tea and coffee are available in the beautiful library between 4-10pm. Breakfast buffet is delicious, the lovely lady makes delicious omelettes. Would love to stay again. Can’t recommend enough! Thank you.

We stayed only 2 nights while on holidays from Canada in this beautiful well appointed hotel. We received 1st class service and hospitality. I only wish we stayed longer to enjoy the library and tea room. Breakfast was plenty! Fresh and wide selection to chose from. The staff made excellent recommendations for restaurants and a Flamenco show. Well situated in the city; close to restaurants and shopping downtown. We would love to return.

We spent two very comfortable nights in Gar-Anat. It is located in a very old building that adds to the historical interest of a stay in Granada. It is well-located for accessing the major attractions all of which we managed on foot. We even walked to the hotel from the train station. It is a little quirky but quaintly so. Our room had steps down to the bathroom which are not ideal and might be a real issue for others. That said, the bathroom was very well appointed and spacious, ||The best thing about the hotel from our point of view was the helpful support we received from Julieta when our visit to the Alhambra was cancelled the night before it was due to take place. She calmly sourced an alternative and dealt with my rising concern very patiently! Top class service.

We only stayed one night in the gorgeous boutique hotel. The hotel felt like we were staying in someone’s house we felt so welcome. The decor in the hotel and the rooms is beautiful and unique. ||Our room was spacious with a very comfy large bed. My only little snag would be the towels in the bathroom. I think they need to replace them as they were quite old and a bit shabby. ||The citrus aroma as you walk into the hotel gives a really welcome feel. The staff were really helpful with restaurant recommendations etc. ||We were driving and the hotel have allocated spaces in a carpark 100 mtrs from the hotel. You can pull in at the hotel and leave your bags. They will give you a fob and a carpark space number. Parking is €22 per night. The carpark is really tight as with all in the old quarters of towns . ||The location is perfect step outside and walk to enjoy the amazing sights and feel the buzz of Granada. ||We wished we were staying longer, next time!!

Thank you Rick Steves for recommending this very special boutique hotel. The staff -- especially Julietta, Magda, Fran, Elizabeth -- worked hard to make our stay in Granada memorable. The history and beauty of the interior appropriately complement the Alhambra, as in, for example, the peaceful sounds of water dripping into a small fountain in the lobby. So many special touches to keep you in the moment. Staying at Hotel Garanat was a wonderful surprise. Oh I almost forgot to mention the delightful room where breakfast is offered (an ancient place where water was stored) which resembles a cozy cavernous room...reminded me of where we saw a Flamenco show, also in Granada!

This is a sweet, small hotel and the staff was great. Magdalena was wonderful in helping us with the car and parking and getting us Alhambra tickets at a difficult time to find them. The room was comfortable and nicely decorated. Maria even brought us tea at night!

This hotel offers good value for money mainly due to its convenient location. All the staff I encountered were friendly and helpful, which made my stay pleasant.||However, the facilities fell short of expectations. The room did not come with a toothbrush kit or bathroom slippers (perhaps available upon request), and there was no kettle thus hot water had to be obtained upon request. Air-conditioning worked, but the coolness was irregular and sometimes noisy.||Overall, while the location and service were commendable, the limited in-room amenities and erratic facilities resulted in a lower rating for me. Breakfast was basic, so better to eat elsewhere.

Gar Anat is a funky boutique hotel walking distance to Gran Via and the Cathedral. Service: The staff at this hotel are some of the friendliest I encountered in Spain. They are very customer-service centered and the front desk receptionist took the time to explain to use how to get around Granada, circling places of interest on a map. There is always someone at the front to buzz you into the front door. Room: Each room is decorated differently and is named after Spanish authors or artists. Our room was on the first floor and had a lovely landscape painting on the wall and high ceilings. It was a spacious, clean room and we were very comfortable. Food: We ate breakfast in a hurry because we had tickets for El Alhambra. The breakfast room is downstairs and has one long table. Their breakfast buffet had a nice selection of delicious pastries (we tried some sort of lemon pound cake and a Nutella-filled croissant, yum!), breads, meats and cheeses, fruit and more. I would definitely stay here again if I'm ever back in Granada!

The Gar Anat is a great stylish little boutique hotel in Granada that is in a great central location within walking distance to all attractions. They have 24 hour receptionist on hand and they were a great help in directing us to getting our Alhambra tickets printed, finding meals, etc... The hotel is just a 5 minute walk from Plaza Nueva and about 15 minutes uphill walk to Alhambra and 30 minutes up to the Mirardor San Nicolas in the El Albayzín Arab quarters. However, it's not in the heart of the tourist area so you won't be walking outside to crowds of people. The room that we had was a bit small but we got a good deal so I can't complain so bear in mind this is a boutique hotel. We didn't do breakfast which they offer in a dining area downstairs nor were we around for the afternoon tea which they serve with some cookies and biscuit (free to guests).

Lovely little boutique hotel. Fantastic location, very good service and charming decor. Breakfast was delicious and rooms comfy. We will be back!
