Book your cheap hotel in Granada

Located in the autonomous community of Andalusia in Spain, Granada is the capital city of the province that shares its famous name. Sitting at the foot of the amazing Sierra Nevada mountains and at the confluence of the Darro, Genil, Monachil and Beiro rivers, the city is a beautiful example of classic Spanish architecture and culture.

With a population of over 470,000, Granada is the 13th largest urban area in Spain.

One of the aspects of Granada’s strong tourism reputation is the wide availability of cheap and affordable hotel accommodation for European and worldwide travellers.


Neighbourhoods of Granada

The coolest neighbourhoods for the tourist trail are:

  • El Centro: This is the historical centre of the city clustered around Plaza Nueva, Calle Reyes Catolicos and the huge cathedral. There are regular street performers in Plaza Nueva and tapas bars, cafes, and restaurants aplenty, as well as the best food market in the city, the Mercado San Augustin.
  • Albaicin: The bohemian and artistic hub of the city is a wonderful maze of winding, cobbled streets and whitewashed houses perched on a hillside. The most popular square in Granada, the Mirador San Nicolás has fabulous views of the Alhambra Palace and Sierra Nevada Mountains.
  • Sacromonte: this other worldly neighbourhood with a distinct gypsy vibe is known for the white caves where people still live. It’s also the flamenco barrio.
  • Realejo: The old Jewish Quarteris an interesting place for a wander. See the pretty church of Santa Domingo and the graffiti wall art of Raul Ruiz, also known as ‘El Niño’.
  • La CruzThis bland residential neighbourhood should be on the visitor’s itinerary for one reason. It is where to find the best tapas bars. Patronised by locals rather than tourists, the bars serve big portions of cheaply priced authentic Spanish food.
