Like other reviewers said, there're many good things about the hotel: location near transportation to Albaicin and Alhambra, walking distance to many good tapa bars and other attractions; helpful and friendly staff, a small eating room, a grocery store just outside (where you can buy cured jambon, sweet caquis, water, etc). However, the bathroom had a foul smell, like sweage,... More

Honestly I travelled from Portugal to France for a whole month and slept in many hotels and hostels. Now when I found this, what I assumed was a hostel, on a website I was happy with the price and booked it right away. To my amazement this is a small hotel with excellent service. The price for the month of... More

This was a great place to stay. It far exceeded our expectations for a budget hotel. The room was spacious and immaculately clean and had everything we could have wanted for a two night stay. A clean, comfortable bed and shower with plenty of hot water. Staff were courteous and informative. The location was great for visits to the Alhambra... More

My wife and I stayed at Hotel Carlos V over New Year. The hotel is fairly well-located, about 10 minutes’ walk from the Plaza Nueva and very convenient for the buses to the Alhambra and Albaicin, and the staff were extremely helpful and accommodating. There is free wifi available, though not (as is suggested online) extending to all the guest... More

Hotel is within walking distance of Alhambra (nice gradual uphill walk about 30mins). A supermarket is located most conveniently right next door. It is also right next to a street full of tapas bars. Room was clean, but the cleaner was overzealous in applying a perfume room spray, such that we had to air the room out for a couple... More

I was kind of amazed at how nice this place was when I walked in to the lobby. I was expecting much less for the price we paid. We had a large balcony overlooking the cathedral which was cool. We consider getting food from the supermarket next door and having a picnic out there one night! The staff were very... More

The room was clean, a reasonable size and in a good location. The reception staff were helpful. We didn't find it difficult to get there, but we checked it out using Google Streetview first and our sat nav definitely helped. Granada itself was really lovely. Would definitely recommend if you're on a budget. More

This hotel is in a great location for visiting the Alhambre and the rest of Grenada. Our room was a good size with a generous bathroom, all very clean. There's a nice terrace with a great view of the city for breakfast (continental breakfast available for nominal fee) or end of the day relaxing. Staff was very helpful and accommodating... More

This was a lucky find for us. We arrived late in Granada, and landed on this little street and saw the sign for the Carlos V. The room we received was just off reception with a view of the church. We thought that being close to reception it would be noisy, but it was not. Rooms are small but clean;... More
