A nice stay in a basic hotel
The staff at the hotel were nice and helpful, giving us good advice on where was best to take our 3 year old. The buffet style food was ok, a little limited for choice though. The hotel was easily accessible from the main road and close enough to the ski slopes without being right in the centre of it all. The room itself was small and very basic, not what we were really expecting from the pictures on the website. It was fine for 1 or 2 nights but I wouldn’t want to stay any longer.
Easy to find, plenty of parking, nice check-in, clean room & bathroom but very noisy, hearing all the noise from other guests in the hotel areas as well as their rooms. Good breakfast choice. No-one on reception when leaving at 8.30 and it wasn't clear what to do with the key, so I had to leave it on the desk.

Great place, really nice staff. Food was great, but not heated enough. Rooms are dated and tired, in need of deep cleaning too. But will recommend for the low price that it's offering.
We had a valid/confirmed nonrefundable reservation for this hotel. We arrived to the hotel in the evening to find out that it is totally closed - everything was abandoned and it was dark: the place looked like a set for horror movies. We called the hotel's phone number provided on the reservation form from two landlines that belonged to a nearby restaurant and a hotel that were open at that time and from a cellphone to find out that the hotel's phone line was out of service. We were shocked that the hotel charged us for our stay (took our money) and didn't inform us that the hotel will be closed upon our arrival. We found ourselves in the middle of nowhere without a place to sleep in the evening - we felt cheated by the hotel. Are they doing this to other people too? Our vacation was interrupted and we had to look for another hotel for the night. We demand that hotels.com do something about this fraudulent hotel and provide us with refund and reimbursement from for such a horrible experience during our vacation.
This hotel is fine for a skiing trip but I won't be staying there again, I've stayed here quite a few times as it's very convenient and cheap but the last 2 times there have been coach loads of kids running a mock around the hotel until well past midnight and nobody seems to do anything about it. For an extra half hour trip up the mountain I'll be back to staying in Granada next ski season!

I'd like my money back!
I have stayed in this hotel before but this time it was horrendous.There was a school trip booked in to the hotel of around 50 children, running wild through the hotel and nobody doing anything to stop the noise. It didn't help with my room being at the top of the stairs on the 2nd floor but I could have been on the 6th floor and still heard the noise!!! Couldn't sleep until gone 12.30 am and I tonight seems like it is going to be worse!!
Having travelled a reasonable amount this hotel is fair and decent.
The hotel is old but clean. Heating is excellent, food is Mediterranean.
Which for me was fine.
Great location only 10 minutes drive from the resort.
Staff spoke English reasonably and were helpful.
Plenty of free parking.
I had absolutely no issues at all.
And would stay there again.
So I would recommend this Hotel.

Overall the staff at the hotel was unfriendly. You have to eat there if you do not have a car because there is nothing around the hotel. The shuttle takes you back to the hotel before the slopes have closed so you cannot ski for a full day. The room was uncomfortable and one of our beds was broken.

Great location
Ideal location for skiing in Sierra Navada. hire your skis here as well and save a lot on the resort ski hire shops.
- The description that this Hotel is close to Alhambra in absolutely false. It is 22 km in mountains.
Be careful not to be mistaken if you want to see Granada and alhambra. This Hotel is for Ski athletics.
+ However they they offer a good dinner.
No tenian agua caliente, no se tomaron la molestia de notificarlo, sino hasta que se ponia la queja en recepcion.
Las fotos del hotel por la web no son nada parecidas a la realidad del hotel.
