About
Palacio De Santa Ines
Palacio De Santa Ines occupies a restored Moorish house dating from the time of the invasion, giving the property a sense of history that modern hotels rarely match. The entrance alone is described as spectacular, and the interior features authentically stylish décor and an impressive art collection. Despite its age, the building includes a lift and key card access, so the old-world atmosphere doesn't come at the cost of convenience.
The hotel sits in the historic centre of Granada, putting the cathedral, baths, restaurants, shops and the Alhambra within walking distance. Guests can book a room with direct Alhambra views, and the family room layout has proved spacious for groups of four or five. A buffet breakfast is served each morning, with guests highlighting the selection of fruit and the freedom to pour their own coffee.

–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Car access is difficult and parking is scarce — The historic centre's narrow streets mean you'll likely need to park elsewhere and carry your bags about 20 metres to the door.
- Some areas show signs of wear — The building's age means worn furnishings, such as threadbare lobby couches, and tired spots in common areas.
- Rooms can feel snug for larger groups — Family rooms may be tight with an extra bed, though guests still manage to fit comfortably.
- Check-out is early — Check-out runs from 08:00 to 12:00, so early starts are required if you have late-morning plans.
