This beautiful place is worth the visit to the town of Niguelas. Everything was lovely. From the room to the breakfast to the caring owner who ensured we had everything we needed. We stayed here overnight and spent days on the beach. Very easy drive to the coast. Great value.
This is exactly what a small independent hotel should be like. Forget chain hotels, it's run by a hotelier that simply wants your stay to be enjoyable. It's a 3* establishment, so don't expect 5*. What you get is warmth and caring. My wife and I would stay again without hesitation. Enjoy the village, the hiking and your stay.
It is a great place to stay. The owner did everything possible to make our stay perfect. We really enjoyed our time there. The only defect that I could think of is that it doesn't belong to me!
Hotel located in an historical house of a small village next to Sierra Nevada mountains.
The rooms are correct and the owner of the house cares every minute that everything is fulfilling the needs of the guests.
Tapas bars next to the hotel, a few minutrs walk.
30 minutes drive from Granada and from Alhambra monuments.
Lovely traditional Spanish feel to the property. Interesting mix of modern and traditional. Great location in central Niguelas, lovely walking from the door. Immaculada was very sweet and very attentive
Lacked air conditioning (although temperatures were 40 degrees ), although the furniture in reception looked lovely it wasn't that comfortable (although possibly this wasn't helped by the extreme heat)
Niguelas itself was disappointing for food, a bit like travelling back to the 1980's.
Nous avons été accueilli extrêmement chaleureusement par Immaculada dans cette magnifique maison de famille. Elle nous a accompagné, bichonné de l'accueil au départ et on voit qu'elle le fait avec envie et passion. On a l'impression qu'elle vous accueille comme des amis ou de la famille.
Le logement est propre et charmant. Bien qu'un peu en retrait, Nigüelas reste un joli petit village étape et à proximité de commerces utiles.
Allez rencontrer Immaculada, c'est une magnifique expérience. 😁👍
Excellent accueil et service dans la belle casa rural de la señora Inmaculada. Sauf que nous avions choisi une chambre donnant sur la rue et avec une douche vraiment trop trop petite!
Niguales possède du charme mais très peu d’options pour y manger.
El alojamiento tiene mucho encanto. Dispone de un salón con chimenea que hace que la estancia sea muy agradable cuando no estás dando un paseo. La dueña del alojamiento es un encanto.
Personal muy atento y amable. Hotel rural con encanto al pie de sierra Nevada, ideal como base para hacer rutas MTB, senderismo, etc. Muy recomendable.
El hotel tiene mucho encanto. Está todo muy limpio y muy cuidados los detalles. La cama muy buena. El desayuno muy bueno. Lo mejor de todo fué el trato de los dueños. No se puede ser más amable. Muchas gracias a los dos.
Nuestra estancia fue perfecta, el dueño José Luis muy educado , amable y simpático.
Hizo todo para que estuviéramos cómodos y que disfrutáramos aconsejándonos en todo lo que le preguntábamos .
Nos faltó conocer a Inmaculada su mujer, será para la próxima vez que seguro repetiremos.
