Only 5 minutes walk to the cathedral. Plenty of food and drinks around. Very safe and secured entrance and exit. The lady in charge is very friendly yet professional. The room is on a smaller size but clean and has big window. The bathroom is very big and with big window for circulation
The property is a little old and needs some updating; however, it is very clean and I was so impressed with the staff. I haven't had a better experience anywhere else. The front desk ladies are so nice, they really treat you like family. I was so happy because I felt save, welcomed, and overall great. I will recommend this place to everyone that would like to visit Granada, plus the will give you a discount to the Arabian bath that I will totally recommend to do.
The staff at Arteaga and the Banos Elvira were the highlight of this trip. They were so warm and inviting and helpful.
The location was also quite close to walk to the Alhambra and the main squares and shopping beneath the Alhambra.
Unfortunately the bed (pillow in particular) wasn't that comfortable and the room we stayed in faced an alley with VERY noisy neighbors. I know that Spanish people tend to eat late and have a good time, but after a full day of sightseeing and a relaxing soak and massage in the baths on-site, we were ready to go to bed early...and simply could not because there was a birthday celebration going until midnight on a Monday night. I know this is not the fault of the hotel, but I was quite tired and disappointed at how little sound was blocked out by just closing our window and curtains at night.
We did enjoy the bathhouse below, which was super convenient to just go downstairs and back upstairs in our robes and slippers.
The highlight of Arteaga was the staff friendliness for us.
Staying at the Arteaga was real value for money. It was central and easy walking distance from the train station. Our room was lovely, clean room, comfy bed and good en suite. Best of all was the friendly, welcoming staff who were extremely attentive and helpful. Check in and out times were great too as the main desk is manned most of the time. There was even a place to leave our luggage after we’d checked out. The bath/sauna/massage experience was luxurious. Pack a swimsuit!
Granada is a brilliant place to visit. We were too late to book a ticket for the Alhambra but you could get in free and wander around lots of places within the entrance and gardens. I’d recommend the e-bike tour too. Got a great view of the city, snow capped mountains and Alhambra.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The reception staff were so friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome and giving us lots of tips on what to see and do. The room was very basic but clean and quiet. The place is in a perfect location to all parts of town that tourists would like to see.
Central location and easy access to main sites. A bit easy despite being off the main street. Taxi driver claimed no knowledge of the place or location. Staff friendly. No frills hostal, but clean and safe.
This should be at least a,3 star hotel. Very nice place. Excellent location. Very clean and well cared. Close to restaurants and sites. Very co.fortable room and bed. Will return!
Its a basic Hostal but it was very clean and the staff is friendly.

Good for a short stay
The rooms are decent and pretty reasonable for a family room of 4 adults, we were in Granada only for 1 night and did not have any problems. The hostel is located just off the main street and very convenient to walk down to the main square and shopping street. The bathroom tends to get wet and there wasn't hot water at all times, but this did not affect us since it was pretty hot in Granada that day. There is a lift and a fridge in the room too. I would recommend this hostel to others as well. The owner is friendly and willing to give tips/suggest places to eat at.
We had a short stay overnight stay, primarily to see the Alhambra. Good , clean, well located hotel with all the basic amenities for a short stay. Had a pleasant experience.
