Monjas del Carmen

Modern comforts in historic Granada

By Esme Fox, VeryChic correspondent
Granada is Moorish Andalusia in a nutshell – a typical and traditional Spanish city adorned with vestiges of its old Arabic rulers: arched doorways, ornate tiles, Moroccan teahouses, and of course the alluring Alhambra Palace, one of the best-preserved Moorish complexes in the world. Local Granadino and famous writer and poet Federico Garcia Lorca described Granada as "a city where the one in love writes better than anywhere the name of his love upon the ground”. There is something hauntingly beautiful and magical about the Granada that brings visitors back again and again to fall under its spell. If you’re looking for a place to stay that combines a contemporary feel with traditional touches, then Monjas del Carmen is your place.

  • If you’re after a sweet pick-me-up instead of tapas, head to the Quatro Gatos cafe for some of the best cake in the city. What’s more, it has an excellent view of the Alhambra from the outdoor tables. It’s well worth the walk up to the Albaicín to get here. Placeta Cruz Verde, 6.
  • Granada does chocolate con churros like no other Spanish city; here they’re big, thick and spongy rather than crispy and covered in sugar. Every Granadino knows that the best place to get them is the Alhambra Café on the atmospheric Plaza Bib-Rambla.
  • If you’re a fan of seafood, then don’t miss Los Diamantes, one of the most popular tapas bars in town (so popular in fact that they’ve now opened up in a few different locations). Plaza Nueva 13.
  • Check out the secret back way up to the Alhambra instead of going the same way as all the other tourists – climbing up the cobblestone steps past the ancient walls, it feels as though you’re in another time and place altogether. To get there, walk all the way down Carrera del Daro, past the plaza and cross the small bridge at the end. It’s here that you’ll find the pathway – Cuesta del Rey Chico.

HOW TO GET TO THE HOTEL FROM THE AIRPORTS

  • From the Granada Airport to the hotel:
    - By taxi: Fares to the city centre are between 25 and 30 euros, ask the driver for a quote in advance – if they ask for too much more than that, then they may be trying to extort money from you.

    - By bus: The route, operated by J. Gonzalez buses, takes around 45 minutes and costs around 3 euros. Get off at the 6th stop - Catedral. From here it is very easy to walk to the hotel. Walk down Calle Gran Vía de Colón, turn left onto Calle Reyes Catolicos then turn right at Calle Elvria onto Plaza de Cuchilleros. The hotel will be on your left.

    From Malaga Airport to the hotel:
    - By bus: Buses, operated by ALSA, depart from the airport direct to Granada bus station from outside the T3 arrivals building. The journey takes, depending on the bus, either 135 minutes or 150 minutes, costing 13.72€ or 11.43€ respectively. From there take a short taxi ride to the hotel.
    For more regular buses to Grenada, first take the airport bus A75 (that also leaves from outside T3 arrivals) to Malaga city centre, getting off at Malaga bus station Estación de Autobuses, tickets cost 3€. From there take one of the more regular ALSA buses, again to Granada bus station. Note that the last bus is usually at 9.30 pm.

    - By car: This might be the most convenient way of reaching Granada; however, note that once you have arrived there is not much need of a car as everything in the city is within easy walking distance or reach by public transport.
    Major car rental companies can be found at the arrivals of Terminals 2 and 3.
    Once out of the airport, follow signs for Malaga onto the MA-21, and then Granada on to the MA-20. Continue following the direction of Granada.
    As you approach the city, continue straight for Granada / avd. Andalucía. Keep going straight (down Av. de Andalucía) and over two roundabouts. The road leads into Av. de la Constitución and shortly after you will reach a third roundabout. Take a left turn here, (the third exit of the roundabout). Take the following right turn down Av. Capitan Moreno. At the next roundabout take a right turn (1st exit) down Plaza del Truinfo and then a left down Calle Acera Merced, this leads into Calle Elvira. Follow Calle Elvira to the end and the hotel will be to the right on Plaza de Cuchilleros.
