Beautiful building and rooms. The city view room, with the balcony, are very romantic. Greg, the front desk guy, was amazing. He can help out with everything you need in Granada. Amazing cafe in the building for breakfast. I would stay here again.

First Time I taken the time to review a hotel, however I am making an exception for Shine Albayzin. Excellent customer service. Was greeted by Antonio who made sure I had the location of all the best restaurants, tourist attractions and local shopping. Antonio even recommended us a Flamenco show which was excellent. The location of the hotel is excellent. It is located in the heart of the city, shopping and food. Taxi service is easily accessible, however everything is within walking distance. The room was incredibly spacious and included those beautifully accented touches you can only dream of. From the room you can enjoy views of the Alhambra. The bed exceptionally comfortable. Would recommend and will stay in the same room when traveling to Granada again.

We had a great 2 nights in a very quiet room on the top floor. Very comfortable king bed and beautifully appointed bathroom. There’s a cafe on the ground floor where you can grab a good coffee and sandwich or pastry. Terrific location.

We were greeted warmly when we arrived . The reception staff were very helpful, booking Flamenco dancing, organising Taxi, advice on eating areas- all very good suggestions. The room was spacious and bathroom very clean. I couldn't see any parking and street very narrow, one way, but looks up at the Alhambra. Perfect

This hotel has a lot of atmosphere and character and is very well located opposite the Alhambra, many small restaurants and cafes and easy walking distance to the center of town. The front desk team are very enthusiastic about sharing their recommendations. One caution is to be wary about the rooms opening onto the inner courtyard. We moved to another room after the first of our 4 night stay and paid the extra to upgrade which we thought was well worth it. Overall a great hotel with wonderful staff.

Granada was my favorite city in Spain. This location was very convenient. We have a view of the Alhambra from our room. The hotel is right in the heart of the Albaicin neighborhood with lots of shopping and restaurants. The hotel is small but so amazing. It has an old charm but is remodeled with modern comfortable rooms. Loved it!
