About
Hostal Costa Azul
Hostal Costa Azul sits in the narrow streets of Granada’s old centre, a short walk from the city council and the Murallas del Albayzin. It’s a small, family-managed guest house where the emphasis is on personal service: staff are repeatedly praised for their warmth and local knowledge.
The building has a leafy inner courtyard with a fountain, a sun terrace and a garden – a quiet spot to escape the summer heat. Rooms are simple but well kept, and many have balconies overlooking the street or the courtyard.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
4 reasons to book- Outstanding staff — Guests consistently mention the friendly, helpful and welcoming team, who offer local tips and go out of their way to make stays comfortable.
- Prime central location — A short walk from the Alhambra, the Albaicín and a dense cluster of tapas bars, yet the surrounding streets stay surprisingly quiet.
- Peaceful courtyard — The flower-filled inner courtyard with a fountain is a calm retreat from the summer heat, with plenty of space to sit and relax.
- Strong value for money — For the price, guests feel they get more than expected – clean, simple rooms with modern bathrooms in a central spot.
–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Small facilities — With a Facilities rating of 7.0, the guest house offers basic amenities – no gym, pool or extensive common areas beyond the courtyard.
- Street noise in some rooms — A few guests mention that rooms facing the street can pick up noise from the narrow central streets – though many note it's not as bad as expected.
- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 10:30 to 11:30, which may be tight if you're arriving later in the day. The hotel does provide airport shuttle and express check-in/out, but the window is short.
- Wi-Fi can be weak in rooms — While Wi-Fi is available, one guest noted a poor signal in their room – you may need to use the common areas for a reliable connection.

8.9Verified guest“The room was wheelchair accessible and had air conditioning, just as I had hoped.”
8.9Verified guest“Very good location, with many tapas bars close by (head left, not right, when going out the door). The staff were helpful and gave suggestions on where to go and eat. Rooms are quite big and clean. We were first given a room facing the street, asked to change, and they gave us a room facing the courtyard – very accommodating. Excellent value, especially for couples and families.”
