Eurostars Gran Vía

Eurostars Gran Vía is a luxury-category hotel of 39 rooms at Calle Gran Vía de Colón 20, on the main avenue of the old centre of Granada, Andalusia, Spain. The Gran Vía was driven through the medieval street pattern in the late 19th century and is now lined with commercial buildings, cafés and bus stops, connecting Puerta Real with the cathedral district. The hotel is about 3 minutes from Granada Cathedral and 4 minutes from Plaza Nueva on foot, which places the Royal Chapel, the Alcaicería, the Carrera del Darro and the Albaicín within easy reach. The Alhambra can be reached by walking up the Cuesta de Gomérez or by minibus. With 39 rooms, it is smaller than the large chain hotels nearby and offers a more personal scale. Room types include double rooms, superior rooms, junior suites and suites. Free Wi-Fi is listed, and the property is described as wheelchair accessible, which is a useful distinction in a city of cobbles and hills. Rates generally run between €150 and €350 per night, with peaks around Holy Week, Corpus Christi and the autumn season. Breakfast is normally available, and the central streets offer many bars and restaurants, with a free tapa coming with each drink. A spa, pool or fitness area is not confirmed in the listing. The service character is that of a polished city hotel for couples, small groups and business travellers, with reception staff able to arrange taxis, advise on Alhambra tickets and recommend excursions to the Sierra Nevada, the Alpujarras and the coast. The hotel's page on eurostarshotels.com carries current details, and the phone number is +34 958 21 78 10. The Gran Vía is a busy thoroughfare, so guests who are sensitive to traffic noise should ask for a room on the quieter side. The location suits visitors who want to walk to nearly every central sight from the front door.
