Spain Getaways: La Bobadilla, A Luxury Hotel In Granada

La Bobadilla, a Royal Hideaway Hotel in Granada, is more than a hotel. It is a small-scale Andalusian village tucked into a vast 350-hectare farm, in the middle of Granada province. With white-washed houses laid out around a natural landscape, it is a getaway to break free from the daily routine. The hotel is secluded from the modern world but within a 40-minute drive from Málaga Airport and close to the city of Granada.

The surrounding countryside is delightful, with olive fields that extend as far as the eye can see and spectacular mountains with trails for outdoor activities. La Bobadilla is an eco-friendly hotel that uses sustainable olive-stone biomass fuel as an energy source for its heating and hot water.

The hotel features 50 rooms and 10 suites, all of them provided with an individual character both in terms of architecture and decoration, combining stone floors, hardwoods and marble to give the visitor a unique and luxury experience. Prices range from €225 to €250 for a room and €859 for a Deluxe suite.

La Bobadilla also features meeting rooms, game rooms, a boutique, hairdresser and masseur. The spa is open daily and it’s €22 extra per person. La Finca restaurant, one of the best in Granada, and El Cortijo, combine regional ingredients to provide an exquisite dinning experience. 

For those looking for a mixture between outdoor activities and the bustle of a city, some recommended day-trips are: Caminito del Rey hiking trail, El Torcal National Park and the beautiful cities of Granada or Cordoba.
