What guests think

At Porcel Alixares, travellers highlight its unbeatable location just steps from the Alhambra, generally clean, comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and relaxing pool, with buses and taxis nearby for easier trips to Granada’s center up and down the hill.

Common trade-offs include expensive, limited parking, thin walls and noise between rooms, and occasional A/C or maintenance issues, with some rooms feeling dated. Dining feedback is mixed: many enjoy breakfast and the terrace bar/restaurant, while others find the buffet average or poor. Expect a convenient base for the Alhambra with comfort and value varying by room and season.

Great location tand parking (doesn’t come free) to visit The Alhambra. Staff are very busy but friendly.. Breakfast is quite basic especially the cooked items. Continental breakfast is adequate but definitely not exciting. Pool area is very nice and clean. It comes with good services u it e var/light bites and toilets. Also chairs and Sun loungers.

I selected this hotel because of its proximity to the Alhambra site and it is within an easy walk. Checkin went smoothly, and although there was no onsite parking left the clerk provided directions on how to park in the Alhambra parking for the same cost.

We loved this hotel. The location across from the Alhambra was ideal. We walked down to the city center and took the bus back up. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The outside terrace is a great place to have a drink. We had dinner on the rooftop terrace. A wonderful experience! Food was delicious and the views were beautiful. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this hotel.

The hotel is well placed in front of Albambra's entrance, and walkable to he historic centre of the town. The room had in theory an air conditioner but did not work, hence a super humid and hot room. The bathroom was not very clean and had zero air circulation, we chose to not use the shower since without AC or Fan, the room would have become intolerable. The staff seemed to have a hard time answering us, maybe English was a problem, they were not impolite at all but not much willing to help either! For example, in all other hotels, when they give you a town map they explain a sentence or two about the environment too but this was not the case here, they left the map on the counter and that was it! Any ways, the price of the room was absolutely not justified.

The property was close to the Alhambra but more distant from all other attractions. Should have booked a more central location. No ac at that time of year and the room was very warm and stuffy; we were forced to open a window. The problem was that we were given what turned out to be the noisiest room in the hotel. We could not sleep and called for another room. We changed rooms while in our pyjamas. The next room was much quieter. Why didn't they give us a quiet room to start with???

Wow, such a nice place especially compared to the more expensive hotel we were staying at in Barcelona. Lots of room in this hotel in Grenada, two big beds for me and my adult son (we are both very tall), nice big bathroom, clean bedding and towels, and an outdoor pool. It is right next to the Alhambra, which is convenient for touring there, although a bit far from the centre of town. Still walkable to town centre, and there is a convenient bus. The staff were very helpful and friendly -- they even opened up the patio for us to eat outside, to accommodate a medical condition. It was a highlight of our trip.

Out of all the hotels we stayed in for our trip this was our favorite one. The location was fantastic, just near the Alhambra but also convenient for the bus routes (35) just in front. So glad we made this hotel our base for 4 nights. Clean and spacious rooms, front desk knowledgeable and friendly. The have a nice lovely front porch with tables too to sit and have breakfast, a mid day drink or just a place to relax to take a break from the mid day sun. Then pool was a major selling point for us too, somewhere to take a dip during the hottest part of the day. Only one day we had a problem finding a chair since it was so busy but overall the size is great and lots of seating. I absolutely would want to come back to Granada soon and stay here again. I highly recommend this place and wished we stayed much longer. Granada tiene su encanto y este hotel también. :) <3

This location is excellent for visiting Alhambra. Paid parking outside of the hotel was very nice and convenient. The hotel had an event going on, so the lobby was very busy and loud upon arrival. I expected the hotel rooms to be a bit nicer, but can overlook that given the great location for visiting the local attraction.

Boa estada. Hotel muito aconchegante, quarto amplo e limpo, com mini bar e chaleira elétrica. Café da manhã deixou um pouco a desejar visto que a categoria do mesmo é 4 estrelas, poderia oferecer uma variedade melhor de itens no seu buffet. A noite jantamos no restaurante que fica no terraço do hotel, foi uma experiência maravilhosa, comida estava excelente e o ambiente muito agradável. Infelizmente a localização é longe do centro e de todo o comércio. Vantagem para quem se hospeda e vai visitar apenas a Alhambra ou para uma viagem de descanso.
