Palacio de Mariana Pineda

Palacio de Mariana Pineda is a 4-star hotel in Granada, opposite the Alhambra and beside the River Darro, housed in a restored 17th-century palace.

A museum inside the hotel tells the story of the palace. The hotel combines classically styled accommodation with massages and beauty treatments, as well as free WiFi. The rooms have private bathrooms decorated with original handmade tiles; most have a hydromassage bath, and all include satellite TV with 54 international channels. Laptops are also available for guests.

The hotel is in the Albaicín, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, 400 metres from Granada Cathedral. It offers double rooms, a family room and two junior suites, some with balconies and views of the river, the city or the Alhambra. The surrounding area is suitable for exploring the historic centre’s streets, squares and monuments on foot.
