We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in October 2012. The building has an amazing atmosphere and the owners are very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast buffet was very good. We particularly enjoyed all the rooms and spaces to sit when the weather was bad. We have recommended this hotel to our friends and family, and are hoping to visit again soon.

If you like old houses and want to feel like a lord - book this very exquisite and unique place! Other travelers have already said how great this hotel is. We were there for 5 nights and can only say: They are right in every aspect. We would recommend it to our best friends and hope to come back one... More

My husband and I stayed at the Hotel Alhambra, in La Orotava, in early March, 2013. This hotel was originally a private residence that was converted into a beautiful small hotel, with large rooms, enormous bathrooms, and charming public spaces on the ground and first floors, all beautifully furnished and immaculate. The breakfasts were copious, with a good selection of... More

The Alhambra hotel is one of the loveliest and most unusual we have ever stayed in; it is perfectly named as the interior of the old palace resembles the Alhambra in Grenada and is full of interesting works of art-a totally different world from the vast package tour hotels and apartments of the South and nearby Puerto de la Cruz....

After spending 4 days in Costa Adeje on our first visit to Tenerife, we arrived at the beautiful Hotel Alhambra to make a contrast with the all inclusive hotel we had previously stayed in. From the moment we arrived we knew we had chosen well. We arrived in La Orotava on the afternoon of the main procession of the Carnival.... More

We stayed in Alhambra during a last minute weekend in Nov. The hotel is an elegant country house with amazing artwork wherever you turn. We stayed in the La Palma room which was spacious with a view of the ocean and mountains. The mosaic bathroom is huge with both bath and shower! The lovely sound of church bells was the... More

Booked for a week, having read others' reviews. The Alhambra lives up to all the previous comments and is a charming place to stay. The rooms are comfortable and beautiful, with some delightful extras. Our bathroom was fully tiled in mosaics and had underfloor heating ( not all bathrooms had this) and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The... More

We did enjoy our six day stay at the Alhambra in January. It’s a lovely comfortable and interesting hotel, more like staying in an elegant house than a B & B with excellent amenities. It is well situated on a very quiet road and has superb views. The staff were very friendly, welcoming and discreet. However, we really hope that... More

This is a lovely small hotel. With only 5 rooms available to guests it's more like a (very upmarket) B&B with great facilities including a swimming pool and sun terrace. The house itself is really stunning; the decor is quirky and stylish with many rooms being furnished with art by a famous local artist. The family who own the Hotel... More

Fantastic intimate hotel. Lovely decor with some interesting paintings by Otazzo. Very friendly manager who explained lots of the paintings to us in Spanish which was great as the only words we knew were 'Dos cervesa por favor' But somehow we managed to understand one another. Great breakfasts, lovely large room and bathroom.
