Hotel Párraga Siete is a modern design hotel in a refurbished nineteenth-century house at Calle Párraga 7, in the old commercial centre of Granada between the cathedral and the Plaza de la Trinidad district. Behind its classic façade the interiors are contemporary and stylish, with clean lines and a calm palette, and there are twenty rooms in standard, deluxe and executive double categories, all with air conditioning. Downstairs, the Vitola gastrobar serves Granadan dishes, wines and tapas, making it easy to eat well without leaving the building, and an interior patio offers a quiet place to sit. Officially a two-star hotel, it consistently punches above its category in reviews, and its rates are among the most reasonable for a design-led hotel this central. The cathedral is about five minutes on foot, the Hammam Al Ándalus and the streets towards Plaza Nueva are a short walk further, and the train station is also within walking distance for those with light luggage. Parking is available nearby for an extra charge.
Location and getting around: Calle Párraga sits in the grid of streets west of the cathedral, a lively area of shops, tapas bars and cafés that stays busy into the evening. The cathedral, the Royal Chapel and Plaza Bib-Rambla are around five minutes away, Plaza Nueva and the Carrera del Darro about ten, and buses for the Alhambra and the Albaicín leave from Plaza Isabel la Católica nearby. Everything in the flat centre is walkable, and the hills are a short bus or taxi ride away.
Rooms: rooms are compact, modern and comfortable, with good beds, air conditioning and contemporary bathrooms. Deluxe and executive rooms give more space for a longer stay. As in any city-centre hotel, light sleepers should ask for a room away from the street.
Who it suits: budget-conscious couples and solo travellers who want style and location rather than facilities, and anyone who plans to spend days out at the Alhambra and the Albaicín and evenings in the tapas bars of the centre.
Good to know: there is no on-site car park, so use the nearby paid parking or arrive by train or bus. Check whether breakfast is included in your rate, and remember that Vitola is a convenient place for a first dinner if you arrive late. The terrace is an interior patio rather than a rooftop.
