Fodor's Review:

The architect-owner of this 15th-century building transformed it into a hotel and received the 2001 National Restoration Award for the project. The brick building has many original architectural elements, three floors, and a central courtyard with a small pond and well. The rooms aren't large, but they get a heady Moorish feel through wonderful antiques and views of the Alhambra and Albayzín. Even if you don't stay in it, ask for a look at the bridal suite, with its intricately carved and painted wooden ceiling. Pros: Handy to Albayzín, easy free parking in front of the hotel. Cons: Breakfast expensive and mediocre, interior rooms are stuffy and airless.

Reviewed by Lrousman from New York City on 9/17/07
Not only is the place gorgeous, it is so meticulously restored you feel like you are walking into the 15th century. Plus you can walk to the Alhambra. The staff was wonderful and really bent over backward. They answered all my emails at length, helped me plan my trip, gave advice on how best to travel from Cordoba to Granada since we weren't renting a car (by bus) and offered to buy Alhambra tickets for us, make reservations at the Hamman, etc. On the day my husband and I were going to the Alhambra, they opened the breakfast room and set out the buffet an hour early just for us. An added plus: right around the corner from the hotel is the Paseo Del Tristes, a lovely plaza in the shadow of the Alhambra with several good restaurants. We've been home for months now and and I'm daydreaming about the hotel!
