    welcoming staff
    poor soundproofing

    A charming stay in Granada

    The location is fantastic, just steps from local attractions. I enjoyed the clean accommodations and found the staff welcoming and always eager to assist. Breakfast, although basic, was a nice treat on the rooftop café with views of the city.

    However, the soundproofing left much to be desired, as I could hear noise from neighboring rooms and the hallway. Also, the lack of air conditioning during warm weather made for uncomfortable nights, especially after long days exploring the city.

    central location
    convenient parking
    mildewy smell

    Loved the central spot, making it easy to hit the shops and grab food nearby. The parking across the street was super convenient. Don't miss checking out the local cafes for breakfast instead of the hotel’s offerings.

    Only downside was the mildewy smell in the bathroom, which was a bit off-putting when we checked in, but didn’t ruin our overall fun.

    rooftop cafe
    noisy room
    ineffective air conditioning

    Great rooftop cafe with stunning city views.

    My experience at Hotel Universal was far from pleasant. The room was unbearably noisy, as I could hear every conversation from the hall and neighboring rooms, which made it difficult to get a good night's sleep. Additionally, the air conditioning was not functional, and the reception staff were dismissive about my concerns, saying it wasn't necessary for the current weather. This lack of attention to guest comfort was very disappointing.

    rooftop bar
    central location
    good tapas
    air conditioning issue
    noise from neighbors

    Staying here for a couple of nights while exploring Granada was mostly enjoyable. The location was excellent, only a short walk from the Alhambra and Mirador de San Nicolas. I especially loved the rooftop bar, where I could unwind with some drinks and tapas while soaking in the views of the city. The room was a decent size, and while the air conditioning was a bit of an issue, the surrounding area was lively and fun to explore.

    great location
    rooftop bar
    daily cleaning
    awkward bathroom layout

    Had a fantastic time with friends! Easy access to major attractions made exploring a breeze. The parking across the street was super handy, and the rooftop bar was a great spot for drinks and tapas. The room itself was clean and comfortable, and the daily cleaning was appreciated. Definitely, check out local cafes for a better breakfast option.

    Our bathroom experience was less than ideal. The layout was awkward, and the showerhead holder was broken. It just made things a bit tricky during our stay.

    daily cleaning
    lively atmosphere
    small room
    poor air quality
    noisy neighbors

    I appreciated the location being right in the heart of the city, just a short walk from major attractions like the Alhambra. The rooftop bar offered lovely views and a nice spot for drinks and relaxing. it was definitely a highlight. My room, however, could have been better. It felt cramped, and the layout made moving around a challenge. The air conditioning needed attention. it started to smell like smoke, so I had to keep the window open, leading to noise from the street. Some staff were helpful, but my concerns about the air quality felt ignored, which was disappointing. I recommend checking out local cafés for breakfast since the hotel offerings were minimal.
