Casa del Aljarife
Tucked into a cobbled lane of the nearly 400-year-old Albaicín, this immaculate three-room casa offers spacious, stylishly furnished rooms, including a private terrace in Room 4 with a spellbinding view of the Alhambra at dusk, while host Damián rounds off each morning with a freshly laid breakfast of fruit, warm bread, jamón and local cheeses, and is on hand throughout with parking arrangements, insider tips and the kind of unhurried, attentive hospitality that makes guests speak of returning.
