“Beautifully restored 15th-century house in prime location a short walk from the Alhambra. Centred around a stunning galleried inner courtyard. Traditional white washed rooms with local artefacts. Brightly tiled spacious bathrooms. Ideal for local exploring.”

Hotel Review

The renovation of this 15th-century house by its architect owner has been done so well that it received the prestigious Europa Nostra prize. As soon as you enter the galleried inner courtyard with its slender columns, wooden banisters and marble pool, you step back in time and are amazed by the serenity and symmetry of it. One bedroom has its original wooden painted ceiling whilst another has spectacular views up to the Alhambra. It feels a privilege to be able to stay here.
