Casa Palacio Carmen Del Cobertizo - Granada

Excelente experiencia en una casa increíble con gente muy amable y dispuestos de hacer nuestra visita a Granada inolvidable! No es tu típico hotel, es palacio antiguo con su duña que vive y lo esta viviendo!

Sentirte como en casa, el desayuno, el patio andaluz, la decoracion, en definitiva... Todo y además los dueños de la casa son encantadores.

Un rincon con mucho encanto en una inmejorable ubicacion.

La acogida,el lugar,su encanto.A Volver

El ambiente del hotel es muy hogareño, cama comodo, el personal es muy amable, muy buena ubicación, aun que no se puede llegar con coche, pero está cerca de la alhambra, los bares y las tiendas. Nosotros consejamos reservar la habitacion Sacremonte, que esta en la ultima planta, que tiene su propia teraza y con vista a la Alahmbra. Todo nos encanto!! Perfect hotel, we loved everything about it!

El ambiente es muy acogedor, las camas muy comodas, el personal es muy amable, nos hicierón sentir como en casa. La ubicación es excelente desde la habitación teniamos vistas de la Alhambra.Es un Palacio precioso, mis hijos dicen que se han sentido como si fueran principes.

El edificio es espectacular... Precioso y muy acogedor. Daba gusto sentarse en cualquiera de sus rinconcitos o desayunar en la inmensa mesa de la entrada. La ubicación es perfecta y el personal, amabilísimo, nos supo orientar en todo lo que necesitamos. Daba la sensación se estar en familia. En conjunto estuvimos muy a gusto y pasamos unos días realmente agradables.

A pesar de que nos dieron una habitación mejor que la que supuestamente habíamos reservado (estuvimos en la habitación del cobertizo, que tenía un rincón monísimo para sentarse a leer un rato) el estado general de la habitación nos decepcionó un poco, sobre todo nada más llegar y tras las buenas críticas que habíamos leído (bañera desconchada y algunos otros detalles que transmitían deterioro). No obstante, con el paso de los días la valoración general es de que estuvimos muy a gusto, aunque quizá el precio un poquito excesivo para la calidad de las habitaciones (que no del edificio en general). Como curiosidad, la habitación estaba llena de rosarios, cristos y vírgenes...

Perfect location, right next to Alhambra, in beautiful old part of town (Albaycin). Magnificent original building with cosy (covered) indoor courtyard, plus an outdoor area with spectacular view on Alhambra. Host makes you feel very welcome, and is eager to make sure you get the most out of you stay: follow with her reccomendations!

Make sure you speak/understand a bit of Spanish in order to be able to communicate with the host(s).

We liked everything about Carmen del Coberitzo - the location the accommodations, the facilities and especially the warmth of hotel manager and owner, Lorena Padilla The hotel is a part of Granada's history, located in the old section and very close to the Alhambra. It is a multi-leveled manor house with private sleeping areas, open living areas on internal balconies and a large outdoor patio. Lots of room to read and relax! Lorena truly welcomes you into her home - actually she invited us to join her family gathering on Christmas Eve for a wonderful dinner and international discussions. Truly a memory and experience that we will savor in the future. Clearly we will return to Carmen del Cobertizo on our next visit to Granada.

Nothing to complain about. Not really an issue for the hotel but we were limited on our interaction by our inability to to speak Spanish. My New Year's resolution is to sign up for a course in 2012!

Beautiful, welcoming, homelike. Excellent breakfast (10euros). Comfortable room and pleasant living area. Good location for exploring the Albayzin and downtown.

My Spanish isn't good enough to communicate very well with the hotel staff.

The lady who owned Carmen del Cobertizo was extremely friendly ,courteous and helpful although she has very limited English. she was happy to talk about the history of the "Palace" and it was like staying in a grand family home. The only criticism I had was that the soap in the bathroom had not been replaced from the previous guests and toilet rolls were lacking. The location was perfect with a view of the Alhambra from our window. A very pleasent place to stay. Regards Denise Edwards

Unbelievably beautiful house, lovingly restored by the owner Lorena who welcomed me & showed me around. I have never stayed in such a lovely place. It felt just like I was a guest in her home rather than staying in a hotel. Don't expect a 24 hour reception desk & fancy add-ons, but if you love quality, atmosphere, surroundings & comfort, along with a friendly welcome, please visit! The view from the upper floor of the Alhambra is wonderful, & my room overlooked the pretty walled garden, also with a virew if the Alhambra. There is also a plunge pool in the garden for the hot summer mionths. The Carmen del Cobertizo is wonderfully situated in a quiet passageway at the base of the Albayicin, just back from the river Darro & opposite the spectacular Alhambra. Please visit....it's wonderful!

Great staff, lovely traditional hotel. Would recommend

The location was great, the staff friendly, the place beautiful inside and out.

We loved the location, of this property. The home itself was beautiful and once you 'find it' and step through the door it certainly has a wow factor.. It is easy to walk from here to the many restaurants and Tapa's bar as well as walk to Alhambra,,, You don't have to be super fit to walk to Alhambra from here, it's a 10-15 min uphill 'stroll' through a parkland setting to reach one of the old gates. Hint: if driving, It's best to drive directly to Plaza Real parking lot and take a taxi from there.

We used the Plaza Real parking lot and took a taxi which stops at the bridge one road down from Carmen del Corbertizo. Despite the taxi dropping us off fairly close this is a home rather than hotel and is difficult to locate as there is no makings on the door.. After wandering up and down some cobbled streets for quite a while we rang on the door of a hotel only to discover we were less than 50 yards away! The family don't speak English so communication can be very difficult and breakfast is very poor value for money.
