About

Crisol Guadalupe

Crisol Guadalupe sits on Paseo de la Sabica, directly by the Alhambra entrance, set back from the city's hubbub. The hotel's position makes it a pragmatic choice for exploring the palace complex first thing, while central Granada remains a short, largely downhill walk away.

Inside, rooms are straightforward but comfortable—soundproofed, air-conditioned and fitted with tea and coffee facilities. Public areas are kept spotless, and the 24-hour reception adds flexibility. The on-site restaurant earns repeated compliments, and the breakfast buffet, served over a three-hour window, is a consistent highlight in guest feedback.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Steps from the Alhambra entrance — Guests repeatedly call the location unbeatable—ideal for visiting the palace complex first thing, with a pleasant walk through the woods to the centre or Albaicín.
  • Staff consistently praised — Friendly, professional and accommodating—from reception to room service. One guest even named the room service manager for going above and beyond.
  • Secure, practical parking — Guarded indoor parking with key-card access takes the stress out of driving in Granada. Some guests also note free parking nearby at the cemetery.
  • A breakfast worth getting up for — The buffet runs for three hours, with rich variety—coffee, drinks and more. Multiple guests call it 'great' or 'wonderful'.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • A walk back uphill from town — The hotel sits above the city by the Alhambra. Getting to the centre is an easy downhill stroll of 10–12 minutes, but returning means a climb—guests suggest the microbus.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel operates a strict no-pets policy, which may rule it out for travellers with animals.
  • Comfort rating trails other scores — While most categories rate highly, Comfort sits at 7.8—the lowest of the listed scores—suggesting some rooms or beds may not suit everyone.
  • Check-in window starts at 15:00 — Standard check-in doesn't begin until 3pm, which might mean waiting with luggage after a morning arrival. Early check-in seems possible but isn't guaranteed.

“We really enjoyed the rich buffet breakfast.”

8.5Verified guest

“The breakfast buffet is marvellous—plenty of drinks and a three-hour window. Cleaning was top-notch too. The location is unbeatable, which is why I chose it; getting to the centre is easy, about 10–12 minutes downhill on foot, though you might prefer the microbus back up. We left the car untouched all stay, parked free near the cemetery. The bed was extra wide (2 metres) and the room silent. I'd book it again if I return, or the neighbouring Crisol el Alixares.”

8.5Verified guest

“A wonderfully relaxing stay, spotlessly clean with attentive staff and comfortable beds. Public parking was close by, and the room felt brand new with superb views over the hills and orchard. Service was excellent, including the good on-site restaurant.”

04 — Location

Getting around Granada

The property sits in Granada.

Alhambra & Generalife: The hotel sits right next to the Alhambra entrance, making it easy to beat the crowds at the palace and its gardens. From here you can also wander the wooded paths toward the Albaicín.

Granada City Centre: About a 10–12 minute downhill walk takes you to the heart of Granada, where you'll find the cathedral, tapas bars and the bustle of the old town. Save your energy for the climb back—or hop on the microbus.

Albaicín Quarter: The historic Moorish quarter with its narrow streets and miradors is reachable on foot through the Alhambra woods. A pleasant way to spend an afternoon, with views over the city.
