Hotel Granada Center
Just a short walk to the city center. This was a incredibly clean and well appointed hotel. The food in the restaurant was excellent and so was the service. The front desk staff was very welcoming and helpful.

Fabulous hotel. Can't beat the location, literally a minute's walk from the cathedral / centre / shops / restaurants. Staff were lovely, room was nice, everything was clean and well maintained. Handy parking (both private for the hotel and on-street nearby). Will be returning.

My family enjoyed staying here. The room was good and the breakfast was very delicious. Only thing is that wifi was iffy sometimes. Other than that, it was very good.
