Hotel Macià Real de La Alhambra
Clean room. Has extra pillows and blankets. There was no tea setup in the room. Would have appreciated a kettle. Other than that everything was good.

Alhambra Palace Hotel
Lovely staff and very clean, easy to drive too. Hotel was very expensive and everything was extra like parking and breakfast. Car parking was off site so you have to leave let them know what time you’d like it back.
