Accommodation
When addressing where to stay in Granada, there is so much to choose from that you will not be short of choice. With lots of Spanish influence, many of the Granada accommodation styles are regal-looking, colourful and neo-classical in their design.
On the shores of Lake Nicaragua, Granada is a cultural hub with welcoming residents and lots of places for you to stay. There are hostels, hotels and guest houses, all ranging in budget to suit your needs perfectly.
Some accommodations are in the heart of all the action, whereas there are other options which are much more peaceful and more tranquil in their demeanour. Wherever you wish to lay your head during your travels to Granada, there is the ideal accommodation to suit your time there.
We use Booking.com and Agoda for almost everywhere we travel to, including Granada! Booking.com in particular was really useful for us when we were in Central America, so we chose to book the majority of our accommodation through this well known site.
Wherever your next destination is in the world, Booking.com offers a great range of different styles, locations and pricings of accommodation for you to choose from. We book in to our next accommodation through the use of the Booking.com app or website directly, which we generally find really easy to use, offers the best prices and we love the rewards scheme.
You too, can become a Genius member. All you have to do is make three bookings so that you can be entitled to some fabulous additional perks.
But before you go ahead and book, it’s always worth checking how the prices compare on Agoda as well. That’s why, for every property below, I've gone ahead and confused links to both of these sites. Though their range of properties isn’t as big, Agoda is typically very competitive on price.
Also, they have a unique service called Agoda Cash, which gives you cashback when looking at selected properties. In turn, this can make many hotels cheaper here than Booking.com. We also love how modern their site is, and their recommendations tool that gives you tailored discounts on properties they believe you will like most.
