La Posada de Quijada

Fantastic find. Would definitely stay here again. Ainhoa is a brilliant host and can't do enough for you. She also does lunches and evening meals on request. We had dinner one day and it was great. Location is superb as well. Don't miss out on this place.

very friendly and personal service, nice room, nice breakfast, quiet, good location

This lovely establishment is nestled far from the crowds and busy-ness of the town despite being so close to it. A bit of a climb thru cobblestone streets and down a narrow street you will find this jewel of a home with a beautiful patio, attractive bedrooms, 2 that open to a terrace, and a relaxing common area. Breakfast is included and the friendliness of the owner and her suggestions for the area make the entire stay very enjoyable. There is more to see than just Alhambra, for which you need a full day, so plan accordingly.

This little guesthouse is tucked away on a narrow laneway unsuitable for vehicular traffic, so my advice is to take a taxi (8€ from the train station) to get through the convoluted winding streets and drop you off at the end of the laneway. Once you get your bearings, it’s only a 5 or 10 minute downhill walk along cobbled streets to the neighbourhood of Moorish shops and restaurants, and to the big Plaza Nueva that is a hub for taxis and buses. The guesthouse is charming, although be aware that there is no lift. Our comfortable room on the second floor had a big walk-in shower with good pressure and lots of hot water, and a sweet little terrace off the room with a peek-a-boo view of the Alhambra. The staff of Tony and Ainoha couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful; they were just wonderful. The continental breakfast was fresh and filling, served with good strong coffee. When my husband and I had to leave early on our first morning in order to get to the Alhambra on time, Ainoha sent us with a packed lunch so that we wouldn’t fade away from hunger. It was a very thoughtful gesture, and much appreciated! We had a fabulous three days in Granada.

Super nice and cosy place in the middle of the old district. Close to walk to town and for us to walk to Alhambra. Very helpful staff that even went beyond to make sure they found some vegan options for the breakfast (which was cooked just for us). Highly appreciated ❤️ Nice little inner yard that you can relax in. And good warm shower (we were there in March). The rooms aren't that sound isolated but the others guests didn't make a lot of sound after ten so it didn't bother us.

This small hotel is high up in the Albaicin in a tiny side street. Taxis will drop you off at the end of the street and it a hairy experience as they navigate the tiny streets and tight corners! It has a lovely patio where a complimentary typically Spanish breakfast is served each morning. We had a room with a small shared patio from which there was a view if you stood of the Alhambra and the distant Sierra Nevada. The main patio serving all the rooms was lovely and a peaceful place to sit with many flowering shrubs. Our room was small but beautifully furnished and very quiet to sleep. The owner Ainhoa was fabulous and with Carmen, gave a very personal service; I was recovering from a broken ankle and the steep cobbled streets were not easy for me (note for anyone with mobility issues). Ainhoa recommended nearby fabulous restaurants and how we should see Granada in my circumstances and called us taxis which were so cheap and quick to come. I thoroughly recommend this as somewhere to stay.

Great location and really friendly staff. The included breakfast is nice, while being quite small. The hotel and area is very quiet, perfect to get a good night's rest. The view of the Alhambra is limited, but not really necessary as there are plenty of opportunities to have tea/coffe/drinks/food while enjoying the views all around the albaicin.

I stayed here with my family and it was amazing! The rooms were very nice and clean. The location grants a more local experience of the area too! There is a nice view of the Alhambra and very tasty, homemade traditional Spanish breakfast. The customer service was exceptional and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! I would highly recommend staying here if visiting Granada.
