It is located at the end of the street named Calle Real de la Alhambra, within the grounds of Granada's most emblematic monument, and is surrounded by evocative gardens and fountains. The hotel has a dreamlike interior, with works of art and exceptional pieces of furniture decorating the cloister and the interior rooms. Enjoy the best local cuisine in the restaurant or the terrace: from Andalusian gazpacho, habas a la granadina (fava beans with artichokes), or piononos de Santa Fe, small spongy pastries drenched in syrup and topped with cream, from the nearby town of Santa Fe.
The Alhambra and the Generalife are just a stone's throw away from the Parador. This World Heritage Site is home to the Nasrid Palaces, the Alcazaba and the famous Court of the Lions. You'll get a magnificent view of the complex from the Mirador de San Nicolás in the heart of the Albaicín quarter, a network of streets with whitewashed houses atop a hill with Baroque churches and Islamic cisterns. Other treasures of the city include La Cartuja monastery, the Cathedral, the Arab Baths and the Science Park. And you surely won't leave without attending, at least one night, a zambra dance performance in a cave in the Sacromonte quarter.
Other must-sees on your visit to Granada include the Cathedral, the Cartuja Monastery, the Arab Baths and the Science Park. In the Sacromonte neighbourhood, you’ll discover another of Granada's traditional buildings, the caves, now converted into flamenco tablaos.
The province of Granada is also home to natural treasures such as the Sierra Nevada National Park, where the highest peak on the peninsula, Mulhacén, stands at a height of 3,479 metres above sea level. The Sierra Nevada ski resort makes it one of the most popular destinations in winter, but in summer it also attracts lovers of hiking and adventure sports.
