Great Alhambra location
Next to the Alhambra in Granada. Just don't be confused by the two locations given in Mapquest. Call if you have any questions about how to get there.

Great hotel
This is a wonderful hotel if you don't mind walking up and down slopes to downtown. It's quite close to the Alhambra and the east side of Granada, and in relatively close proximity to most of the sights to see. The hotel was really clean and tastefully decorated, and the staff at the reception desk were very helpful. They could speak English but reply in Spanish when they can tell you want some more experience with Spanish. They're also very helpful. The hotel is located in a very scenic part of Granada as well - surrounded by trees and mountains, and is away from the hustle and bustle of the city (although is within walking distance from downtown). I really enjoyed staying in this hotel.

Dining tip:
Short walk from hotel
When you walk from the hotel toward downtown, there's a small pathway to the right called the Cuenta de los Chinos. It's a beautiful pathway that leads to two outdoor restaurants that face Alhambra (we ate at the Bar de la fuenta, listening to flute players and looking at the Alhambra lit up at night). It's breathtakingly beautiful and highly recommended.

Great Location
The staff is wonderful and helpful. The breakfast is not the best I have had in Spain, but very good! The location could not be better! The only bad thing I can say is that I had some trouble with the WiFi. It worked most of the time, but would stop randomly.

Overall, our stay in this hotel
Overall, our stay in this hotel was a very good experience. It was misleading that parking had to be paid separately. This should be indicated clearly together with the rest of the hotel information.

We found reception desk very helpful. Hotel buffet was excellent relative to the price. Environment near by the hotel was super: beautiful walking down to the small river and then up to the highhest point of Albaicin.

We had a very comfortable and
We had a very comfortable and enjoyable stay at The Alixares. The staff at reception were very helpful and informative. The restaurant was excellent and staff very pleasant, as was the Barman. The only problem was a blocked bath which was a little unpleasant when showering as the water didnt flow away. As I kept forgetting to report it they were unaware of it, but I did wonder if the cleaning staff might have noticed it.
