Barceló Carmen Granada Hotel

Overall, a very pleasant experience. The staff were well-organized, check-in was smooth, and the room was quite spacious. We booked a suite with an outdoor hot tub—while it was too hot to use during the day in mid-June, a staff member promptly came to set it up when I wanted to relax at night, which I appreciated. The hotel’s location was convenient, with a supermarket just across the street. That said, cleanliness could use some improvement. We found a stain on the bedsheet when we first arrived, though the staff quickly replaced it upon request. I also noticed a buildup of hair on the hair dryer, which was a bit unpleasant. Still, considering the price point and what I imagine to be the general standard of other hotels in Granada, I’d say Barceló Carmen holds up quite well.

Nice reception. We managed to get our rooms early. Rooms are basic but clean and comfy. Roof top is amazing with great views of Alhambra and rest of town. Swimming pool is small and water looked cloudy so really didn’t want to try it. What bothered us was the fact that you need to collect towels from ground floor reception whilst pool is on top floor. Why can’t they make towels available through the bar? I did complain and lady at the bar agreed and also felt it is a bit annoying for them. Location of hotel is amazing

The location was great, rooftop terrace and pool were nice to have and an added bonus. It was nice to have the restaurant in the lobby and breakfast buffet but neither were that good in my opinion. There’s a cafe next door which was great for coffee and pastries. A mall across the street with a grocery store underneath. The room was fine but cheaply done. I liked the closet space and area for luggage. My kids slept on the pull out bed and didn’t complain. I’d say a 3.5 star hotel
