The Albaycín

  It´s located on San Miguel hill, on the right bank of the “Darro” river and opposite the Alhambra hill.

If you do a tour along Carrera del Darro, near the hotel, you will go first to the “Paseo del Tristes” and enjoy one of the most wonderful view of the Alhambra.

Going up the “Cuesta del Chapiz” you will enter the heart of the Albaicín: San Salvador, San Nicolás churches and its bay windows, Plaza Larga square, San Bartolomé and a lot of marvelous places where the light and the placidity of this historic quarter of Granada will enthrall you.

The Albaicín has a labyrinthine design, a usual one in the medieval towns. Wherever you go, you will meet, different architecture styles, towers, walls, mosque minarets turned into Christian bell towers, cisterns and memories of the past. The “Zaguán del Darro” hotel wait for your estimate visit so that you enjoy that special atmosphere.
