We LOVED Solar MontesClaros! What a beautiful, unique stay! I always read the best reviews and worst reviews of a place before booking, and I can honestly say that any criticism of MontesClaros is unwarranted. Everything was so comfortable and I slept like a dream while there. Antonio was a perfect, gracious host. Unless you have mobility issues, I would not hesitate to book a room here. If we are ever lucky enough to come to Granada again, we will most definitely stay here again!
Excellent stay, great location, close to flamenco venues and good walks through the cobbled streets of Albaicín. Restaurants are also within walking distance. Fantastic views of the Alhambra. Recommend wearing sturdy footwear for walking along the steep cobbled streets.
Fantastisk hotel, men beliggenhet var vanskelig om man er dårlig til bens. Hotellet var rent og pent. Det var stille og behagelig men ulendt og tunge trapper
I had a room with a view directly across at the Alhambra. I actually preferred my view to that of St Nicolas Square, without the hassle of the crowd. Host was very helpful and welcoming. Bus 34 stopped just 100 meters from the front door, easiest way into town center and back up the hill. Bus 32 stops 150 meters away and loops directly to Alhambra.
Lugar idílico. El hotel te transporta a la Granada de las mil y una noches. Unas vistas espectaculares a la Alhambra. De mis 6 visitas a Granada este sitio sin duda me ha dejado maravillada. Volveremos sin ninguna duda.
Small boutique inn up on the hill directly opposite of the Alhambra. We enjoyed the long walks up from the commercial center below (some sections were very narrow and barely passable by cars). The WIFI was so slow we could not even upload emails most days, let alone pull up a webpage, and this was the only negative aspect of our stay.
disappointed..hotel got great ratings, but..not a hotel, a room rental..great view, but very tight quarters..problems with a/c, lighting, noise, hard bed..steep climb up uneven alley with dog and horse crap strewed about..dog barking problem..relatively far from old town shopping/tourism..steep hills..tiring walking..the single staffer was very nice but helpless to solve problems..would certainly not stay here again..too bad
Superbly located for The Alhambra Palace and the winding local streets that are full of bars and restaurants. Owner was also very friendly and helpful. Wi-fi worked well. We had the downstairs room which was full of character, it had stairs up to the terrace (which was a pleasant place to pass time) but unfortunately had a mirror halfway up the stairs which allowed a view into our room from the terrace and as our room had no blinds/curtains we were unable to block it off.
Overall, not quite sure how it is rated quite as highly as it is on TA but it is a pleasant place and we were happy enough with our stay.
Estancia y ubicación bonitas, atención agradable, pero no tiene todos los servicios anunciados (salón con TV común ...) y me cobraron de más por cama supletoria, aunque estaba incluida en el precio garantizado en la reserva para 3 personas (2 adultos y 1 niño de 13).
Absolutely LOVED this place. If B&Bs, staying amongst the locals, and having AMAZING service from Antonio and his staff are your thing, stay here!! Beautiful view of the Alhambra as well.
