Hotel Granada Center
the hotel stay was great, the only issue was the underground parking spaces were smal and hard to manuever

Melia Granada Hotel
I have never stayed in a hotel with just a rail for hanging clothes. The reception staff were bordering on rude. The only plus was breakfast which was excellent. Perhaps the Melia Granada staff should visit the Melia Seville to see how it’s done.
