The Palacio de los Gamboa hotel is located in the city's business district and a stone's throw from the Town Hall. If the purpose of your trip is work-related, we have everything you need for you to be able to work in complete comfort.
However, being in Granada and not enjoying yourself is not an option. The cathedral’s bell tower is one of the must-sees in the city. Did you know that you don't have to worry about booking? Call our reception and the team will arrange your private visit to the great Andalusian complex. Fact: we are just a leisurely half-hour walk from this monument. The location of the Sercotel Palacio de los Gamboa is an absolute privilege. All around us, the Cathedral, the Albaicín and the Monastery of San Jerónimo. As we said: you are at the epicentre of Granada's action. And that's if we're talking about the outside. Inside, be sure to take a look at our beautiful façade, stroll along those corral-like balconies and look up at the sky from both courtyards... see that? It is a beautiful window. You are in a special place that reflects the elegance of other eras.
Warning: you may get a Stendhal rush when you enter your room. This is what happens if you are lucky enough to come across those beds with headboards that are a work of a master cabinetmaker. By the way, you can choose your pillow à la carte, because the aim here is to give you a good night's rest. And in the morning? What you smell as you approach the dining room is pure joy: a breakfast buffet full of goodies and so aesthetically perfect that you'll be embarrassed to grab that piece of fruit or get that ham and tomato for a nice slice of sourdough toast. It is the garden of delights.
