A secret boutique hotel with breath-taking views of Alhambra: The Carmen de Cobertizo hotel in Granada, Spain

The Carmen de Cobertizo hotel is located in the city center of Granada in Andalusia, South Spain. The romantic hotel was built in the 16th century, on the ruins of an Arabian house the origins of which can be traced back to the 11th century. The historic hotel in Granada is tucked away so deeply in the old town’s labyrinth of narrow lanes that it’s not easy to find it.

Das Hotel Carmen de Cobertizo
A cobertizo is a roofed interior yard which as an essential constituent of traditional Arabian architecture for many centuries formed the core of many local buildings. Today, only few of theses are left in Granada. One particularly beautiful exemplar can be found at the romantic hotel Carmen de Cobertizo. From a wooden gallery on the first floor you can look down into this atmospheric and peaceful space. And it’s also from here that you access the five luxurious guest rooms of this bed& breakfast hotel in Granada.

The rooms at Carmen de Cobertizo
The guestrooms of the Arabo-Andalusian mansion hotel are situated on the first floor, distributed around the interior yard. Their interior design offers the charm of a southern European country house. Large nostalgic beds, country-style fabrics and hand-carved wood fittings dominate their ambiance. The extraordinarily beautiful suites of Carmen de Cobertizo are, no doubt, a great place to stay for a romantic vacation or honeymoon in Granada. Two of them boast unsurpassed views of the Alhambra, the landmark sight of Granada. The other three open onto the romantic hotel’s luxuriant and fragrant garden. All rooms of the bed & breakfast hotel are equipped with heating system, private bathroom, hairdryer, toiletries and Internet plug-ins (Wi-Fi).

The garden
A special - or maybe even the greatest - feature of the honeymoon hotel Carmen de Cobertizo is it’s idyllic garden. Here, in the shade of some very old trees you can sit and indulge in the peace and beauty of this historic property. To refresh yourself on hot days you will find a small pool.

The historic city center of Granada
The Carmen de Cobertizo hotel is situated at the heart of the Albayzín district, the oldest and most beautiful part of the city of Granada. Part of it’s charm is due to the fact that it is not accessible for private cars. That’s why it’s recommendable to park outside but near the historic district (Puerta Real parking) and from there take a taxi or just simply walk up to the Carmen de Cobertizo hotel.
