Tranquil Retreat With Beautiful Views
My stay was superb. In my travel from Madrid to La Costa Del Sol I found this Gem. A family operated hotel in an amazing beautiful area with astonishing views a beautiful sunsets over looking the Sierra Nevada and villages surrounding it. A place full of peace and serenity with excellent home cooked food, especially made for each individual guest. You get to choose from a daily menu that is provided. Than your choice will be cooked especially for you on that day. I stayed for three nights and I didn’t want to leave on my check out day. Pedro, Natacha, Maria Del Carmen and Andrea are all beautiful caring people, they are the ones that hosted my. I now call them family. Pedro provided me with lots information to continue on my travel. I also met other returning guest. One lady I met was her 7th stay. As I will be returning to El Balcón De Nieves a mountain hotel in La Zubia. Thank you to all the staff for a beautiful relaxed stay.

Great place to stay
This hotel is amazing. The location is around 4 kilometers from the nearest city centre (la Zubia) but the travel worths it. t is a beautiful trip all going up the hill between pines. When you go down, you see the city below, so pretty. The hotel is a recycled old house, nice and tidy. Our room was huge with a huge balcony overlooking the city and the Sierra Nevada mountains. Breathtaking. Bathroom was totally updated and functional, and of generous dimensions. Breakfast was european style, plenty and deliciuos, with different kind of breads, tarts, pies, mermelades, fruits, yogurt, etc. Coffee, teas and chocolate are available too. The orange juice is squeezed at your request. The owners, who attend the place, are great people. There is one dog living at the hotel that is the sweetest dog ever and the owners even let you take it for a walk if you want. Great hotel, great experience.

I want to move to Cumbres Verdes after this stay!
Absolutely amazing!!! Way high up above Grenada in the mountains provides beautiful sunsets and quiet. Loved loved loved!! The meals were great, the ambience incredible and I didn’t want to leave! And I loved the sound of chickens clucking in the morning and the dogs to pet by the pool. Oh, and the breakfasts are superb, lots of variety, fresh squeezed OJ and home made yoghurt!! Wow! To travellers who go, it is hard to find with no GPS and google maps got us very lost as Zubia, the town your have to go through to get there, has no street names on the buildings. Use GPS and it is simple. Staying there is the perfect complement to the AlHambra chaos with all the people.

Nice place
The hotel was nice and comfortable with modern bedrooms. The bed was very comfy. The service of the hosts was really pleasant and kind. The food was delicious and the chef very nice. The two canine hosts steal the show! Awesome pair of dogs. The view to the city is lovely. The only thing is that the hot water for the very nice bath tub with a view never really heated up, so we couldn’t use it. I’m sure it was a one off..

Lovely peaceful spot with great breakfast
We loved it (& the dogs). Beautifully modernised, fab view, lovely people, great breakfast (freshly baked bread, cakes, pastries etc). We wished we'd been better organised and booked to have dinner there, in their nice dining room overlooking the valley, as we're sure the food would have been excellent.
