Morisco is the name given to the Muslims who stayed on in Granada after conquest. The hotel Casa Morisca, offers acommodation with a unique flavour within a grand old house dating back to the end of the 15th. century.
The patio preserves its original morisco pool and on all four sides there are galleries supported by pilasters and columns. This ancient interior, was given a new street façade in the 17th. century.
All the magic and charm of the Alhambra are reflected in Morisco houses and can be enjoyed here: stucco-work arches, panels of original Morisco coloured tiles and multicoloured wooden ceilings.
The breakfast room has an impressive barrel vault of brickwork and the patio garden is a delightful place to have a drink while enjoying a superb view of the great Comares Tower of the Alhambra.
All the rooms have air conditioning, satellite TV, free Wifi and internet connection, minibar, amenities, hair dryer... There is also a 24 hour bar service and a pleasant patio-garden, where to have a little chat or a drink.
Hotel Casa Morisca is situated in the historic district of the lower Albayzin at the end of the Carrera del Darro street, next to the Paseo de los Tristes and opposite of the Alhambra wich you can get to in 10/15 minutes.
Out of the hotel and down the street, there is a bus stop whick connects the Albayzin with the city centre and the Alhambra. Also, just a few minutes walk down the river Darro, you can get the Cathedral and the main monuments of Granada.
