Hotel Boutique Cerro del Sol

The atmosphere is perfect, calm, friendly and well-ordered. You can spend days idling by the pool, reading in the garden or working in the reading room. Bedrooms are spacious, furnished in Andalusian style, with en suite bathrooms (some baths, some showers), air conditioning, WiFi, telly and desk. Some have a terrace with panoramic views of the Sierra Nevada and a private jacuzzi.

Wake to delicious buffet breakfasts in the beautiful room overlooking the pool: fresh bread, pastries, yogurt, cheeses and hams, tortilla, fresh fruit and veg. Dinners can be ordered in advance from a small menu made with local ingredients and the wines are very good – lovely to gaze at the pool while you eat and drink.

You’re in a quiet and peaceful area but it’s just 15 minutes by taxi to the centre of Granada for shopping, cafés, nightlife and many restaurants. You’ll be glad to return to this oasis for a tasty supper and a good night’s sleep.
