This property is centrally located. Everything is just around the corner (other than the Alhambra). You must reserve the parking ahead of your check in otherwise you are risking not to have parking space available.

Great location

Such a great location right in the middle of the city. A little hard to get in to otherwise right smack in the middle of the city was what we were looking for. Front desk was great service and very friendly.

I stayed at Hotel Universal for 6 nights (1st - 7th September) and would highly recommend it for it's location, security and quiet atmosphere. The check-in process was swift upon my arrival and I was greeted by very friendly reception staff. The hotel is located within the city centre and is very close to all the shops, supermarkets cafes and restaurants. I chose the single room option which was nice and clean on arrival. It came equipped with a large bed (sleeps 2), bedside draws, clothes rail, desk and chair, mini fridge and television. The single room also has an ensuite bathroom which contains a bath and shower, bidet, sink, mirror. The hotel does not provide a lot of toiletries other than hand wash and towels so you'll have to purchase items like shampoo and toothpaste yourself. The hotel is several stories high and provides lift access to all floors. At the very top is a rooftop bar and cafe which provides breakfast between 7am and 11am.

Our second stay here as great location for city centre bars and restaurants and sightseeing. Lovely rooftop bar and cafeteria for breakfast and snacks with friendly staff and good service. Comfortable, clean rooms with good shower (no bath)! Underground Car park just across road booked in advance. Took half an hour to find hotel following Sat Nav from motorway but only 2 mins to get back on Motorway when leaving!!
