Owner Location Comment
El Numero 8 is located in the heart of one of the oldest neighborhoods in Europe, the Albayzin. It is the old Granada that is perched on a hill above the rest of the city that sprawled out after the conquest of Granada from the Moors in 1492. It is like a rural village that sits atop the rest of the city. Once you enter into the neighborhood, you leave the cars behind and the quiet envelops you. It is a pedestrian area where the cobblestone streets are small, windy and full of endless exploration. When you are in El Numero 8 you can sit on the terrace and listen to the birds of the surrounding gardens, and then go down to the busy city within 3 minutes walking. If you are looking for a quiet place to stay with a charming, historical environment, but still want to have quick acess to all that the bustling city has to offer, you have found the place.
