Here’s a natural, detailed 5-star review that sounds like it came from a real guest: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an amazing stay at Barceló Granada Congress and would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Granada. The hotel is beautiful, exceptionally clean, and the rooms are spacious, modern, and very comfortable. Everything felt well-maintained, and it was clear the staff takes great pride in the property. One of our favorite parts was the breakfast. There was a huge variety of fresh, high-quality options, and it was the perfect way to start each day. Definitely worth adding if you’re staying here. The location was another huge plus. It’s within easy walking distance of the city center and many of Granada’s main attractions, and having a shopping mall right next door was incredibly convenient for anything we needed. Most importantly, every member of the staff was friendly, welcoming, and accommodating throughout our stay. They made us feel right at home from check-in to check-out. Overall, this hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. We had a fantastic experience and will definitely be staying here again the next time we’re in Granada.

I’ll start with the positives. I had a nice room, the car park is excellent and very spacious, and the staff were friendly. The pool, however, was turning green around the edges, so I decided to not make use of the spa given the sanitation issue. When I went back up at around 8.30 pm to take some pictures, the glasses left by the afternoon guests were still on the terrace. In your room there is tea but no water cooker, so you first have to rinse the coffee maker several times as otherwise there's coffe from the last guest in your tea, and that's just nasty! I had dinner at the hotel, but don’t drink alcohol. When asking about non-alcoholic options, I was given a strange look and the very extensive drinks menu, on which I could only find the 0.0 Tostada… no wine, no cava, no gin or alternative options. When pointed out, the only alternatives offered were either cola or fanta. So I ended up having water, which took a while as suddenly my waitress felt like she had better things to do. The management might perhaps consider including non-alcoholic cava, kombucha or spirits. I had the salmon, which was tasty, but I guess things went wrong with the dessert. I ordered the cheesecake and, despite being the only one in the bar… it took over half an hour to arrive, and didn't really impress. The following day, I couldn't enjoy the restaurant at my next hotel as I spent the whole afternoon and evening on the toilet. Breakfast was ok but if you are going to mention, fresh and organic in combination with a chef preparing whatever you like maybe that chef should offer fresh orange juice (juice out of a box doesn't become fresh because you put a 'fresh juice' sign next to it) and the guacamole came out of a plastic tub. Upon mentioning at the check-out that there should be a few non-alcoholic options – given I’m not a five-year-old at McDonald’s – I was given a biscuit :D One extra star for their sense of humour, but I can imagine other guests might not share it ;)

I was really impressed by the breakfast buffet. There’s cava there’s fruit juices of all kinds, and smoothies! The chef will make personalized egg dishes. There’s lots of places to get coffee so you don’t have to wait and I was just very impressed that they had a lot of vegetables too in addition to lots of meats and cheeses and of course, fruit fruit fruit 🍉 salad! I love a good breakfast buffet and the parking was really easy with large spaces and it’s easy to get to without having to drive through Granada! so I really thought this was a great choice especially with me driving alone and so I recommended it.

Highly recommended hotel. I had an excellent time staying here over the weekend. Checkin was easy, the room was fantastic size and very comfortable bed and the hotel services were excellent. Spa and roof terrace were nice. The staff were very accommodating of my checkout time as I had a very late event the night before which made a huge difference to my trip.

We had a very nice stay at Barceló Granada Congress. The hotel is comfortable and worked well for us, especially since we had a car, as it is not very close to the city centre. However, the parking is not included in the price (18 €), which would ideally be complimentary for a 5‑star property. The pool is much smaller than the photos suggest. In reality, it is more of a small pool suitable for about three people at a time. The rooftop area is very nice with good views, but the space is quite limited; there is room for only about ten chairs in total, so it can be difficult to find a spot. Finally, the front desk staff could be more polite and welcoming. For a 5‑star hotel, I would expect a warmer and more professional welcome at check‑in.

Tired, dated and certainly not a 5 star hotel. We were given a junior suite. The mini bar contained 2 bottles of water. The ac barely worked and was noisy. The window didn’t close properly. The cheap laminate flooring was delaminating. The mattress sagged with nothing on it. The room was very basic, stark, the pictures not straight. The ac inlet was full of dust. Staff were attentive but the common areas were very dated and tired. The bar is basic, no concierge in sight over 2 days. Nothing in this hotel is if an international 5 star level, it’s like a budget hotel with a few more staff. The rooms at any 3 star Premier Inn are far superior. The price of 260 euros for the night is way too expensive for this tired hotel in need of a major refit.
