A Gorgeous Andalusian Hostel – Solar Montes Claros

This is an ode to a place, a physical location, an actual building… oh and there’s an outfit in it too.

Last week was my birthday, and apart from cocktails, cake, some truly amazing phone calls from loved ones – Mila I love you and need to visit you in Barcelona soon – and some pretty gifts, I was treated to a surprise trip to the city of Granada with two adorable guys and my dog. I was spoiled with the accommodation: we stayed at the Solar Montes Claros hostel. Below are some pictures of my bedroom, which went under the name Jessie’s Room, oh sorry, I mean Sumeria.

The bath was HUGE – I need one of these at home

Yes, my dog was allowed to stay – Spanish hotels and restos still need to get with the times. Solar Montes Claros is way ahead.

 
Oh dear, I fell and now I can’t get up

The shower… no words for this

I cannot recommend the hostel Solar Montes Claros enough. The service was exceptional, breakfast was a luxurious treat with fresh seasonal fruits, toast, jam, honey, freshly squeezed orange juice and coffee. Now, just in case you thought all I did was take pictures of myself all day, here are some images of the rest of the hostel, because I did leave the room… against my will.

From my room’s terrace – yes, I’ve decided to refer to that room as mine… forever – you could actually see the Alhambra, the fortress complex that brings countless tourists to the city of Granada every day. The price varies depending on the room you take but it’s seriously affordable starting at €45 per night, per person. What you get in exchange for your money is a unique, luxurious experience, worth every penny. Yes, I LOVED it, and can’t wait to go back.

Quite beautiful, right? Where have you travelled to lately?
