We stayed at the El Ladron De Agua for 3 nights in March 2026. Olga and Miguel made sure our stay was perfect in every way. The room extremely well-appointed and lacked for nothing. The suite was also very clean, quiet and affordable. I can't recommend this hotel enough.

29.10.2025 Guest

I am so glad I chose El Ladrón de Agua from the many options for places to stay in Granada. The building is beautiful, a couple of minutes from the Plaza Nueva, and my apartment was simply wonderful - spacious, comfortable and beautifully furnished and equipped. I particularly liked the fact that all around the building there are references to Spanish and Andalucian culture. The hosts had provided a generous selection of food and drink to start me off. They obviously really care about making guests feel comfortable and they could not have been kinder and more helpful. They even walked with me to the railway station on the day I left as there was a festival taking place in the city and finding a taxi would have been impossible. I thought that was just so kind. All in all, I rate this as one of the best places I have stayed anywhere.

This place is amazing—very new, clean, and beautifully furnished. The owners are incredibly welcoming and generous. We requested early check-in and late check-out, and they not only accommodated us but also upgraded us to a two-bedroom apartment at no extra charge. The location is excellent—very close to the city center, markets, and just a 20-minute walk to the Alhambra Palace. Beautiful city and beautiful people!

24.12.2024 Guest

We stayed here in November over a weekend are were incredibly impressed. The location is perfect for exploring Grenada - you're right in the middle of old town and an easy walk to everything. The hotel has recently be refurbished and everything is beautifully presented. The staff were very helpful and the check-in super smooth. The electronic locks on the apartment doors meant we didn't need to worry about forgetting our keys, which was great for us. The apartment itself was really well equipped. The kitchen had everything you could need, there was a TV with lots of channels, there were really nice toiletries supplied and plenty of very soft towels. The bed was so comfortable - we slept wonderfully. We cannot recommend this place enough and we would not hesitate to book this hotel again next time - it was perfect for us!

I absolutely adored this apartment hotel!🌟 We stayed in a beautiful apartment with a gorgeous living room + kitchen with everything you need. Two big bedrooms, one of them absolutely huge with a mesmerizing bathroom. Both bathrooms are amazing in different ways: The eye for interior design, style and beauty is evident throughout the whole building and the apartment. It felt at home and cozy as well. The hotel was quiet and I slept well as the living room balcony is out towards a great view and a calm, quiet and very atmospheric walking street next to a small river. Sunlight, great service, amazing resturants and breakfast places one minute walk from the hotel. You also have restaurants just some minutes walking with an absolutely incredibly view of Alhambra and the rest of the city and lush green hills and landscapes. Lastly - a great Hamam spa 5’ walk. It was the most beautiful spa I’ve been to. 👌 Highly recommended, 10/10! ✨

Our stay was absolutely amazing. This beautiful Palace has a very unique architectural design with a modern twist. The apartment was very comfortable, very clean with all the amenities. It is within walking distance to Alhambra Palace and to the city center. Our hosts Olga and Miguel are very kind. Will definitely return again.

22.07.2024 Guest

The palace is beautiful, in a flawless location within walking distance of everything. Our large apartment had two lovely balconies overlooking the river, and had been recently renovated to a really high standard. Olga and Miguel so kind

Perhaps not all of you reading this will arrive at El Ladron de Agua Palacete in a state of sweaty discombobulation, having somehow lost your glasses in the past hour. But if, like us, you do, rest assured that the above-and-beyond ministrations of Olga and Miguel will solve all problems. (The glasses were located, retrieved and delivered to us by our hosts the next day!) First, we were wowed by the initial view of the marble courtyard and central fountain of this lodging (now an apartment, rather than a hotel after some fabulous renovation). Beautiful poetry lines the courtyard walls. Secondly, we were greeted warmly---no, more like long lost relatives—by Olga and Miguel. Our lodging was the penthouse which was sumptuous. A handsome bathroom, nice bedroom and large, beautifully furnished living room/dining room/kitchen area. Out the window and up the hill stands the Alhambra, imposing and iconic at every time of day. The kitchen was well-stocked with every pot and utensil one might need for real cooking (we only made breakfast but could have done more if we wished). More standard services, like recommending restaurants and helping us navigate a complicated city, were also cheerfully performed. We knew how to reach our hosts should we need them in off hours. There was a day-long (and part of the night) celebration while we were there. Closing the double-glazed windows eliminated almost all the street sounds. And when it was time for us to (reluctantly) depart after three nights, our hosts not only advised us on the best place to get a cab that could go directly to the train station without circumnavigating the city, but rolled our suitcases there and sent us off with unforgettable memories. We cannot imagine you’ll find a lovelier place to stay or more service-oriented hosts.

Beautiful little hotel in fantastic position ideal for all sightseeing. Really comfortable rooms which were well appointed with lovely bathroom which included a whirlpool bath. Sherry & olives served in the library in the evening which was lovely touch. Thoroughly recommended.

15.04.2021 Benoit

Remarkable place. Very beautiful interior patio, very nice and large rooms (with an old-fashioned atmosphere in the room itself, but a completely modern bathroom). Excellent breakfast with very good products. Very friendly and helpful staff. Perfectly situated as well.
It is a wonder this hotel is not (yet, as of Jan 2017) a 4-star hotel. Very much worth it, highly recommended.
