Palacio Gran Via

 

Sitting at the base of the Sierra Nevada, Granada is a walkable, characterful city of historic streets, open squares and iconic sights like the Alhambra Palace. Days here tend to be busy, whether you’re sightseeing, sampling the many tapas bars or wandering through uphill neighbourhoods, so a hotel with a pool is a welcome bonus. You’ll find everything from stylish boutique hotels in old townhouses to well-priced central stays with rooftop pools. They’re practical, comfortable places to cool off, take a breather and reset before heading back out.

For city style

Seda Club

  • Right in the middle of Granada, Seda Club is an intimate hotel that feels like a proper escape once you step inside. Think velvet armchairs, colourful tiles and mosaic bathrooms. There’s a peaceful courtyard, a rooftop bar for late drinks, and a small spa with a Roman-style plunge pool, perfect after a long day exploring the city on foot.
  • Set inside a former bank, Palacio Gran Via has been recently restored and has plenty of personality, from the grand staircase to the original vaults. Bedrooms are quiet and comfortable, there’s a hammam and indoor pool below ground, and the rooftop bar is a go-to spot for sunset drinks while looking out over the Alhambra and cathedral.

For the spa

Villa Oniria

  • Housed in a beautifully restored mansion, Hospes Palacio de los patos feels like a grown-up retreat. The on-site Andalusian restaurant is a highlight, and the Bodyna Spa is a real draw, with a Turkish bath, sauna, hot tub and a spacious indoor pool. Rooms are filled with light, bold monochrome styling and high ceilings.
  • Villa Oniria is set in a 19th century manor house, and has a relaxed, romantic feel. Rooms are calm and modern with pale wood and soft lighting, while the courtyard restaurant is great for long lunches. The spa is ideal for switching off, with balneotherapy treatments, an indoor pool and sauna.

For a guesthouse

La Almunia del Valle

  • Set high in Sierra Nevada National Park, but only half an hour from the centre of Granada, La Almunia del Valle is a stone-built guesthouse that keeps things relaxed and full of character. Expect wooden beams, fireplaces, stone floors and neutral interiors. Unwind on the terrace or by the pool, with epic mountain views and home-style meals made from local produce.
