3am taxis in Granada

Hi everyone,

My husband and I have a 3:30am bus to catch in Granada. We are staying close the the Alhambra in the heart of the city, on Calle San Juan de los Reyes.

Is it possible to get a taxi from there at 2:30-3am? How would we find one? I would also consider arranging transportation beforehand but everyone I've contacted say they can't help me.

Any ideas? Thanks so much.

Everyone? Including your accommodation? I don't recall ever staying in a place where the management couldn't arrange an early taxi, even an Airbnb apartment with no one on site. If they say "no" I'd consider staying somewhere else. It could be a sign of things to come.

Everyone is the two private companies that I've been able to find and contact. We're staying at an Airbnb and the host has not been responsive. I would change but they've got hundreds of 5 star reviews so not changing at this point.

Do you know if a taxi can be caught at 3am and where?

If your host isn't responding, it isn't 5 stars for you. Your options seem to be choosing another place to stay with a taxi guaranteed before you book (or stay close enough to the bus to walk), or a different bus, both of which you'll likely reject. I'd never put myself in the position (and consequent stress) of walking the streets at 3 am looking for a taxi because other people loved the place. I'm well acquainted with Airbnb, as host & guest and I always respond, including if a guest is stuck, I'll take them myself. I hope someone comes along here with a better idea.

I agree about your host, but how much google research have you done? I spent 5 minutes and got a lot of hits, though I didn't take the time to go into detail. Here's one:

Please note in Granada they speak Spanish, and it is a long way for a pick up from Paris.
