Hotel Abades Nevada Palace

Beautiful building, nice surroundings and convenient location. We stayed there as a part of Thomas Cook SOTC tour. Reception and food court was spacious and cozy. Elevators had a great view through the glass walls overlooking mountains. Surrounding was decent.|Rooms were clean but dated and tired looking. Hallways were dirty and stained. Carpet was patched to cover worn out areas.|Bathroom was clean and adequate but shower stalls were crammed and shower curtain was inadequate and small. Toilet was clean and seat had multiple functions. Bidet and dryer were plus for Europeans. |Dinner was limited but adequate for a meal. Breakfast was bellow euro standard.|Good shell but poor interior was detracting.

I stayed one night at Hotel Abades Nevada Palace and had a mixed experience. It’s a large hotel with extensive facilities, including restaurants, a café, swimming pool, spa, gym, convention center, and parking — which is impressive at first glance.||The reception and central area feel modern and well-maintained. However, once you access the hallways and rooms, it becomes clear that the hotel is old (and during my stay, it was undergoing renovations). It’s worth noting that the hotel is far from Granada’s city center — an Uber ride cost about 20 euros — but on the positive side, there’s a supermarket right next to the hotel.||What bothered me the most was the condition of my room door: the wood was damaged, giving the impression that it had been previously forced open, which made me feel unsafe, especially since I was staying alone.||The room, though spacious, had old furniture (bed, desk, and armchair) and a stale, closed smell, lacking a sense of freshness. The bathroom is well-equipped, though also outdated; a nice touch was the toilet with a Japanese-style cleaning system, which was an interesting plus.||Overall, the hotel offers good infrastructure, but the rooms need renovation to match the quality of its common areas.

Stayed at hotel with Trafalgar tour. First impression not good, hallway carpets stained and areas were patched up. Room size was good but smelt musty , pull up blinds were broken and breakfast was very average. The hotel has potential but in need of some upgrading to bring up to a good standard

Reviewed as of Sept 2025: The 4-star rating on Google is quite misleading. This hotel is in urgent need of renovations and better staff training. The rooms are poorly maintained, with issues like leaking toilet flushes and a generally run-down condition. I had to change rooms three times, but the problems remained the same. While the staff made some effort to assist, it wasn’t enough to resolve the issues. Many rooms have a sewage smell, and basic amenities such as shower curtains, a safe, and an iron were missing.

This hotel is very much in need of renovation. Our room was acceptable but right outside our door the carpet had large holes in it. Our friends in the next room had several problems. The best part was the view from our window of the mountains. Would not stay here again.

This is listed as a 4 star hotel. It probably was at one time, but no more. First off, the staff were great. The front desk personnel were friendly, helpful, and efficient. The property is really tired. The floor covering in the hallway to our room looks like worn out carpet padding. The mirror frame in the bathroom is chipped and faded. The door moulding for the bathroom door is broken. The beds are only marginally comfortable. Breakfast was definitely not 4 star. Not once during our three visits were any of the hot foods actually hot, room temperature maybe. There was a good selection of foods, but nothing outstanding. While it is not really walkable to city center, it’s an inexpensive (about 8 euros) taxi ride. The neighborhood it is in is fun to explore, with a few interesting cafes and restaurants.

The Hotel Abades Nevada Palace in Granada boasts an impressive exterior, but my experience inside was far from pleasant. My room was in poor condition—the carpet and sofa were visibly dirty, and even the pillow was in an unacceptable state. To make matters worse, the WiFi was virtually nonexistent. The only way to connect was by opening my room door and attempting to use the weak signal in the corridor, which was hardly an improvement. The layout of the hotel, with rooms arranged around a central atrium housing the reception, meant that noise echoed through the night, making sleep difficult. The furniture was uncomfortable, with basic wooden chairs lacking any cushioning. Overall, the level of cleanliness and comfort was shockingly low, making this one of the worst hotel stays I have had abroad. A disappointing experience that I would not recommend.

What stood out for my partner and I was the customer service provided to us! Great staff, location and a grocery store near by. We wanted to take the time to thank Salva working at the pool restaurant for his hard work, his attention to detail and how he cares for the client. Thank you Salva,you made our stay better.

Took forever to check in because apparently we needed a passport. Once we got to our room it smelt like cigarettes and it was disgusting. The overall room is okay, nothing special at all in my opinion, also fyi the bathroom doesn't have a lock which kinda stinks. Anyway another complaint I have was the WiFi it wasn't working very well at times during our stay but sometimes it did work, I definitely wouldn't rely on it working if you go. The one thing I was surprised about was the food. A lot of people said the food isn't good here but I must say it was decent. They had delicious pasta and potatoes and a bunch of nice salad options (it was a buffet). Besides the food nothing really stands out, pretty disappointing hotel.

This ranks as one of the best hotels I stayed while on my Spanish Tour. It's quite upscale and has a striking elliptical structure which really wows when you enter the hotel lobby. The location was great as there is a grocery store next door and it was easy to walk around and get to the local train station and explore the neighbourhood. Beds were super comfy and decor wise it was very modern and sleek. Loved the window shades design and how they came down to shield the room from the hot sun. Free Wi-fi had great signal strength and I wish I could have checked out the Spa - the treatments sounded wonderful! I also got to try out the free breakfast buffet - it was excellent and featured international-fusion choices. Overall, was very happy with the stay here and wouldnt mind booking it again. Yelp Review 101/ 2017

The hotel is comfortable but don't expect the staff to go above and beyond to help you. As a tourist you are made to feel that you are inconveniencing them. The pool was closed (no signs outside pool stating that it's closed for a month) and we were offered no apology or alternative. Our bathroom light was out and when the technician arrived he seemed annoyed that we had called to have the lightbulb replaced. Such a shame because the hotel itself is located in a beautiful area.

first off , I just want to say Granada is the most cleanest place I've been to! such an awesome place Checked into this hotel around January 2012 and was very impressed. As you arrive at the hotel , the first thing i notice is how amazing the architecture of the building is. It looks very modern and reminded me of the luxor in Las Vegas.... just the circular version! after parking , we go in and check in at the front desk. The ladies were very nice and helpful. They didn't know that much english so they took their phones out and had a traslator app , which i thought was very nice of them. Language barriers suck! foursquare also has a coupon for a free 30 minute massage in their aqua massage thing if you check in so don't forget to go on their wi-fi so you can check in. So after getting everything settled , we go into our rooms and BAM! beautiful rooms. now don't forget Europe rooms are not the same size as American rooms so our expectations weren't that high. The rooms were pretty decent. Not too small , not too big, just good enough to get by. I was sharing a room with a friend and we never had issues about being crowded at anytime during our stay there. After unpacking , we head back down to the lobby and go to the bar , which is to the back left side of the hotel upon entering. Prices are a bit high , which i think is normal for a hotel so its ok , order a beer and chill in one of the hotels many chairs in the lobby and soak in the moment that we are in Granada and then head out to the city to get our party on! So we go into our cars and head "downtown" to party!! the walk to the "downtown" area is kind of a ways. I'd say its about an hour walk if you are doing a normal pace and stopping now and then to trip out on how clean the city is and to stare at random fascinating buildings and to look at all the gargoyle statues everywhere (friendly looking gargoyle's though). If you have no service in Europe for your phone , make sure to use your wi-fi before you head out so you have a small picture of the area in case you get lost , which is my case because i lost my group around 4am and had to walk back on my own (well worth it!!). So i get back and lay on my comfy bed for about an hour and get up around 6am for breakfast. Since we were all hungover , i can't recall if their breakfast was good or bad but i do know it filled me up enough to have enough energy to get me thru the day , which was skiing on the Sierra Nevada Mountains from 8am to 5pm. Espana I miss you
