Nice hotel short bus ride from Granada city centre. Parking at hotel can be expensive 13 euros per day.You can also park in Alhambra palace car park just opposite, same price as hotel with voucher from hotel, so ample parking. A good location from ski area 30min Parking at ski area also expensive depending on how long your stay is 9 till 4 about 15 to 20 euros.
The breakfast is fine plenty to choose from. Dinner not so great but ok both are buffet,but you can choose diffrent of an evening. Buffet was included in price but was stated when booked so check. ( Because we have booked and had no breakfast included). evening meal cost 14 euros plus whatever drinks you buy. this is booked to your room and payable on check out. we have been here a few times now and recommend it. We used it as a base for skiing at Sierra Nevada. So cant comment on the palace opposite. << click here to read less |

we used this hotel as a base for our skiing trip to sierra nevada cheaper than hotels at sierra nevada who require min 5 days.sierra nevada 30 to 40 mins away. but easy to get to the main road taking you there.you have to park in the alhambra palace car park as there is no where else, this is 13.5 euros per night with a ticket from the front desk. combined with 15 euros at sierra nevada its very expensive to park work out wether its cheaper with a bigger car, bear in mind the streets in granada are very narrow not the best place for a big car or people carrier thats why we choser to stay away from the city. the bus stop to granada runs every 5 to 10 min and takes about 10 min to city centre and is a short walk from hotel and you can visit the palace 2 min away. << click here to read less |

Very close to the Alhambra. The location is very good and you can use the bus to go to the main places such as the city center or the Albaycin. The bus stop is very close to the hotel. But, if you want to go out in the night, you will depend on the schedule of the bus, so it is better is you can find a place closer to the center. Breakfast was excellent. The pool and the area close to it was closed in October. There is a discount is you need to use the parking, it costs around 13 euros per day. << click here to read less |

The hotel is ideally situated next to The Alhambra Palace and is a very pleasant place to stay. There are two draw backs however, firstly there are very few bars/restaurants within easy walking distance, and we were charged13 euros for one days parking in the neighbouring car park which we were not aware of. This was due to the hotel car park being full . << click here to read less |

Excellent Hotel. The staff were extremely freindly and accomodating especially to the children. The location could not be faulted for the Alhambra which is just a few minutes walk away and if your visit is for travelling up into the Sierra Nevada the Hotel is ideal, as you avoid the traffic congestion associated with Granada. f you want to visit Granada centre the walk takes about 20 minutes (downhill) but for a wonderful experience take the Alhambra bus number 32 (1 euro) from outside the entrance to the Alhambra. The route takes you on a rollercoaster ride through the tiny streets of the Albaycin district offering breathtaking views of Granada. The Hotel offers a good A La Carte menu and a wide choice of wines for the more discerning traveller but if you have children and for good value, choose the buffet which offers a wide choice of cooked and cold meals. We stayed for a week and had a wonderful time at the Hotel Alixares, will definately make a return visit next year.

Although the hotel was extremely convenient for the Alhambra Palace it was quite a distance from the city centre - a bus service is available but it would have been better to have had a more central location.

Good value hotel in an excellent position for the Alhambra and the very pleasant walk down into Granada. The staff were helpful and friendly and the triple room was fine for two adults and a two year old.

We found it hard to fault this hotel. The rooms were immaculate, well furnished and spacious. The location, quiet but a stone's throw from the Alhambra, could not be better, and there are very frequent buses to the centre of Granada for those unable or too idle to take the pleasant twenty minute stroll into Granada. Breakfast was ample and varied; we did not risk lunch or dinner, though we were told by those who did that these meals continue to be the only real disappointment. Bu t who wants to go to Granada to eat in an hotel when there are so many more interesting places to explore? We would see no point in looking further than the Alixares for our next visit to this enchanting city.
