Fodor's Review:

Built by a local duke in 1910, this neo-Moorish hotel is on leafy grounds at the back of the Alhambra hill. The interior is very Arabian Nights, with orange-and-brown overtones, multicolor tiles, and Moorish arches and pillars. Even the bar is decorated as a mosque. Rooms overlooking the city have majestic views, as does the terrace, a perfect place to watch the sun set. Pros: Bird's-eye views, location near but not in the Alhambra. Cons: Steep climb up from Granada, certain rooms somewhat threadbare.

Hotel Details: 113 rooms, 13 suites
In-room: Wi-Fi.
In-hotel: restaurant, bars, parking (free).

DO NOT stay at the Alhambra Palace Hotel unless you want to pay substantial hidden fees at checkout or pay for food that you did not eat. If you must stay at this hotel, PLEASE PLEASE make sure to ask to confirm the room rate when you check in (match it with the rate you got for your reservation) and scrutinize your invoice prior to paying for anything at checkout. The service is poor and the atmosphere is no better than a chain hotel.....definitely NOT worth the expensive price tag or the investigative work you need to do to make sure the hotel staff has not "scammed" you of unnecessary charges. My family has been traveling in Europe since 2000 and have never had such an awful experience with a hotel and especially one that costs this much. We don't want anyone else to make the mistake of staying at this hotel. Yes, it is close to the Alhambra Palace, but it is definitely NOT WORTH the cost....save your Euros and go out to a nice dinner!
