“Perfect for my 3 night stay in Granada”

Palacio Gran Via is outstanding. My room was perfect, good beds and bed linen. The bar staff including Rosa made great martinis. Breakfast restaurant good simple selection of hot and cold. Location is very central, walkable to most places. Above all, welcoming, helpful staff who could all deal with my non-Spanish speaking. Bravo. Great find.

“beautiful property but room so crammed”

For 2 adults and 2 carryon, the room was so crammed. it was set up like an efficiency studio. The toilet and shower could be seen from the bed. It was VERY crammed and given the choice I would have taken something more comfortable even if it was a little of a distance away.

“Wonderful stay in Granada”

Our stay at Palacio Gran Via was absolutely incredible. Upon walking up the stairs to check in, I could tell we would enjoy our stay. The staff was wonderful, so friendly and welcoming. I have never been at a hotel that you could choose the scent of your room. What a fun concept! Definitely try the Jazmin! Our room was wonderful- clean, spacious, and peaceful! The spa downstairs was heavenly! Being able to use the sauna, steam room and pool after a long day of exploring Granada was such a nice perk! The breakfast at the hotel was fabulous! I appreciated all of the healthy and fresh options!!

“AMAZING STAY!”

The staff at this hotel is top notch! Everyone went out of their way to serve the guests. Our room was very nice - quiet and comfortable. Fresh flowers in the room! The roofdeck was spectacular, too. I don't have enough good things to say about our 4 night stay here

“A 5 Star Hotel That Give You 5 Star Excitement And Happiness For Your Stay”

Wow……with today’s styles of minimalism and mid century modern decor, many luxury hotels looks blah and even cheap. Not true with Palacio Gran Via in Granada. It is a wonderful 5 star hotel that fills you with excitement….in anticipation of visiting, especially during the actual visit and with lovely memories afterwards. The hotel’s architecture and decor ( both public and guest rooms) are luxurious and gorgeous…..just what you want in a luxury hotel. We have now stayed twice…..first a mid level room, the second visit we have a deluxe room. Both are lovely. . I would also like to commend Alex at reception who welcomed us as old friends. Daniel took great care of our luggage and provided great detail on our room’s unique features…..great lighting options, a special type of thermostat, a super fancy bidet/potty combination, and a wide selection of options in the pillow menu. The hotel and its rooms are immaculate. Food in the breakfast room and on the rooftop cafe are excellent.
