This hostel is situated quite far up the hill and was difficult to find. We ended up at the wrong place but got directions off of a local. The trek up the hill is definitely worth it, the view of the Alhambra is incredible and it is only a fifteen minute walk away. We stayed in a private double that... More

I can't imagine a nicer place to stay in Granada. I had the place to myself, travelling in February. Asa was so nice and drawing endless maps in my quest to find a jam session (and this despite feeling unwell), I probably drove her mad! The scenery is just marvelous- great views, nice room to hang out in, balcony with... More

magical view amazing ambience , crazy vibe, beautiful view, all round amazing places. the whole thing was like something out of a lorca poem , But like love the archers are blind Upon the green night, the piercing saetas leave traces of warm lily. The keel of the moon breaks through purple clouds and their quivers fill with dew. Ay,... More

Not your usual place to stay, small and intimate and not in the city centre but these are all the pluses of the rambutan. It is in the Albaizin area of Granada which for us is the best part and far more interesting than the city centre. It is a big walk up the hill but is worth it. Afternoons... More

Perfect place to stay great views and a great staff. Only complaint is far away from most everything but this is worth it for the view and the people. Great place for English speakers as well.Also very good food available

Apart from its fantastic situation in Sacramonte, a short walk through the Albaizin from the city centre, and having the best view over Granada, Rambutan is special for the people it attracts. The faces have changed over the years but there has always been a... More

Yes, it was a bit hard to find at first, but after we got our bearings right, we realised it was situated at such a central location but away from the tourist crowd. The rooms were clean, bed was comfortable, they have a bathroom in every dorm room and a huge selection for breakfast. They change the bed sheet, pillowcase... More

Rambutan is a guesthouse/hostel that has a great staff - helpful and kind! Rambutan is definitely not for everyone as it is up in the Sacromonte area, which is up up up from Granada. But once you get there it is gorgeous! You have an amazing view of the Alhambra right from the porch and if you want to get... More

When deciding on a place to stay in Granada, we were looking for basic accommodations at a reasonable price in a very good location. Rambutan fit that bill. It's located in the Albayzin, a fabulous spot to view the Alhambra and a neighborhood with lots of character. We were able to walk to the major sites (Plaza Nueva - 10... More
