- Nadine (10/5): Wirklich alles toll!! Schön wenn man dem Trubel entkommen möchte. - Alles - es war ein Träumchen! Imaculada, die Inhaberin, ist super nett und hat uns sehr gute Tipps gegeben. Nichts
- AGUSTIN (7/5): - La casa es bonita
- Edgar (10/5): - La señora Inmaculada es un host excelente. Ella ha hecho su trabajo por tanto tiempo que sabe cuando afrecer ayuda y cuando simplemente no es necesario. Su trato y manera de recibir a la gente son tan buenos que le hemos sugerido que use su casa rural como escuela para formar gente en turismo. Indudablemente, en nuestra próxima aventura a Granada, nos quedaremos con ella.
- Zoe (10/5): Host absolutely lovely and made sure we were well looked after - Stunning property loved the quirkiness
- Jeffrey (10/5): Absolutely wonderful! - Everything! Inmaculada is the best!
We don’t speak Spanish and she doesn’t speak English
but we were still able to communicate very well. She is a lovely lady and a wonderful host.
Highly recommend! Nothing:)

- Thomas (10/5): Visit Nigüelas and stay at this hotel. - This an extraordinary hotel. If you’re looking for quiet comfort in gorgeous surroundings look no further than this place. Immaculara is quietly there to make your stay as perfect as possible. Perfect is not a word I use lightly. But imagine you want to play cards and a felt coveted table appears. Imagine you want a glass of wine - it appears. I highly recommend this wonderful hotel.

- Tuuli Sisko (10/5): - Nos gustó todo.Un fin de semana tranquilo en un entorno rural de lujo.Muy buena atención de Inma que regenta el hotelito.
- Gádor (10/5): -
- Fanny (7/5): Très bonne accueil mais malheureusement pas ce que l'on avait espéré pour notre chambre - Très beau bâtiment à l'intérieur. La dame de la réception était très gentille. Nous n'avons malheureusement finalement pas passé la nuit dans cette location. Nous nous sommes retrouvés à avoir sans doute la plus petite chambre avec deux lits distinctement séparés, impossible à rapprocher, alors que nous avions réservé une chambre en couple. Chambre assez sombre, dans son jus et sinistre au rez-de-chaussée juste derrière la réception. On se serait cru dans un monastère pas très accueillant. Très peu de luminosité, une petite fenêtre qui ne laisse pas vraiment passer la lumière. Nous n'avons malheureusement pas eu de chance pour notre chambre cependant cela ne veut pas dire que les autres ne sont pas bien. Nous ne nous sommes simplement pas sentis à l'aise pour rester passer la nuit là-bas.
- MONTIEL (10/5): Puente de octubre perfecto en El Secreto del Olivo - El alojamiento es fantástico tanta para ir en pareja como en familia. La ubicación es excelente ya que puedes disfrutar de esa parte rural que se respira en el entorno y con tan solo 25 minutos te encuentras en el centro de Granada. Por último hablar de Inmaculada: atenta, pediente en todo momento de lo que necesitábamos y aconsejándonos qué podíamos hacer o lugares que no podíamos dejar de visitar.
- Jonathan (10/5): Perfect stay, perfect host. - The host was lovely, very attentive and helped with any questions we had. All good
- Alain (8/5): Séjour dépaysant - Très charmante maison de type « hacienda » dans un village de montagne pittoresque.
Accueil sympathique par une hôtesse attentionnée.
Dîner familial d’autant plus apprécié que l’offre locale doit être des plus réduites.
- RICARDO (10/5): Excelente. 1A - Atención e instalaciones! Todo bien
- Mª CARMEN (9/5): Para repetir - Nos ha gustado mucho. El edificio es precioso, la casa muy bien conservada y preciosa decorada. La ubicación buena. Todo muy limpio. La persona encargada del alojamiento ha sido muy amable. El desayuno muy completo. Nada
- Lujarix (10/5): - Fue todo excelente
- Stephan (8/5): Sehr nette und hilfsbereite Eigentümerin die für ihre Gäste auch kocht, da es in dem Örtchen keine Bar oder Restaurant g - Sehr schön hergerichtetes Altstadthaus
- Maria de los Desamparados (3/5): Regular. - Bien El ruido por la noche. Los colchones.
Estaba sin personal durante mas de 3 horas.
- Gill (10/5): -
- Angela (10/5): -
- Zuzana (8/5): -
- laurent (10/5): - Nous avons été accueilli extrêmement chaleureusement par Immaculada dans cette magnifique maison de famille. Elle nous a accompagné, bichonné de l'accueil au départ et on voit qu'elle le fait avec envie et passion. On a l'impression qu'elle vous accueille comme des amis ou de la famille.
Le logement est propre et charmant. Bien qu'un peu en retrait, Nigüelas reste un joli petit village étape et à proximité de commerces utiles.
Allez rencontrer Immaculada, c'est une magnifique expérience. 😁👍

- Koen (10/5): Perfecto todo! - Precioso el edificio y los detalles. El desayuno espectacular. Muchas gracias ☺️
- Lynn (9/5): Niguelas is a beautiful town and El Secreto del Olivo is a beautiful hotel right in the center. - The hotel is very beautiful and the host is extremely attentive and friendly. We enjoyed relaxing in the salon and playing games as well as having tea in the garden. The room was a bit hot on a hot day although the ceiling fan was helpful.
- Irina (10/5): Exceptional -
- Andrea (9/5): Superb - great breakfast, family business, really nice people and care of guests nothing
- Juliana (10/5): Welcoming place to stay and relax, highly recommended - Very welcoming and helpful host, and the place is beautiful and comfortable. Thoroughly enjoyed my visit and I would definitely return if I visit the area again. Nothing.
- Pilar (10/5): Strongly recommended - A beautiful place up until the smallest detail! A lovely stay!
- James (10/5): A beautiful old courtyard house, with a gracious host, in a pretty little town. - A beautiful old house, very comfortably restored/maintained as an inn. Delicious food. Hearty breakfast. Ideal for those walking the GR7/E4. A great entry point to the Alpujarras region
- Eugeniu (10/5): Exceptional - All was excellent
The ancient house from 17 century very beautiful and the host Imaculada very friendly and helpful.
- Anthony (10/5): Wonderful overnight stay - Beautiful building , fabulous bedroom , spotlessly clean Nothing it was fabulous
- Layan (10/5): Exceptional - The hotel is very well taken care of and it’s style makes you feel like you’re staying in an old spanish house.
It’s cozy and clean and the lady who manages the hotel is so kind.
The location is fine it’s about 25 minutes far from the center and if you don’t have a car it might be difficult to get a taxi from there. Limited Parking
- Martyn (10/5): Amazing Venue, Service and experience . - Great all round experience. The lady who looked after me during the stay was excellent. This is a real find, a jewel in the crown and right in the centre . Nothing
- JOSE LUIS (10/5): - Si quieres tranquilidad, este es tu hotel .
- Bartolome (10/5): - Bien
- Ashley (10/5): - This beautiful place is worth the visit to the town of Niguelas. Everything was lovely. From the room to the breakfast to the caring owner who ensured we had everything we needed. We stayed here overnight and spent days on the beach. Very easy drive to the coast. Great value.
- Daniil (10/5): Exceptional, cute and full of history. Recommend everyone! -
- Helen (10/5): An exceptional place to stay. - El Secreto del Olivo is an exceptional place to stay. The 400-year-old house has been beautifully restored and is tastefully decorated and filled with art and antiques. Our host was generous, kind and attentive. Even though we arrived late by bike she produced an incredible three-course meal (the best food we’ve had during our holiday in Spain). The breakfast was also filling and delicious. We cannot recommend this accommodation highly enough if you are passing through Niguelas.
- David (9/5): We can recommend this hotel to all. - Very friendly warm welcome. Parkplatz.
- YVES (8/5): - Excellent accueil et service dans la belle casa rural de la señora Inmaculada. Sauf que nous avions choisi une chambre donnant sur la rue et avec une douche vraiment trop trop petite!
Niguales possède du charme mais très peu d’options pour y manger.
- Karol (10/5): Exceptional -
- James (9/5): Lovely stay...too short though. - Our host was most kind and evidently cares a great deal about her property. A lovely day in the Sierra Nevada followed our stay.
- jacobo (10/5): - Tanto el sitio como la persona que lo atendia son fantasticos, encontrandote con gente asi da gusto viajar.
- Francisco Javier (10/5): Nice experience - Hotel located in an historical house of a small village next to Sierra Nevada mountains.
The rooms are correct and the owner of the house cares every minute that everything is fulfilling the needs of the guests.
Tapas bars next to the hotel, a few minutrs walk.
30 minutes drive from Granada and from Alhambra monuments.
- YOLANDA (8/5): Sitio con encanto - Está bien en el centro, tiene encanto es cómodo y el desayuno bueno, un sitio rústico donde descansar sin ruidos ni molestias
- Paul (10/5): - If you want to really get away from the tourist scene - this is the place. Immaculada was terrific.
- Philip (10/5): Very special memories..Sitting in the patio enjoy an excellent breakfast and evening meal wonderful. - Very traditional home, with a beautiful calm atmosphere. The building is stunning, many antiques , and fabulous art too. The glass work is superbl Nothing
- maria asuncion (10/5): - Alojamiento muy recomendable. Trato familiar y agradable.
- Peter (10/5): Wonderful but too short stay! - The builidng is beautiful, the room and bathroom were perfect but more important, the host is a wonderful person!
- Andrew (8/5): - Lovely traditional Spanish feel to the property. Interesting mix of modern and traditional. Great location in central Niguelas, lovely walking from the door. Immaculada was very sweet and very attentive
Lacked air conditioning (although temperatures were 40 degrees ), although the furniture in reception looked lovely it wasn't that comfortable (although possibly this wasn't helped by the extreme heat)
Niguelas itself was disappointing for food, a bit like travelling back to the 1980's.
- Eva (10/5): Exceptional - The owner is just lovely and the house is very pretty, clean and comfy
- Marie (10/5): wonderful stay in charming house - wonderful charming place! very nice host.
great breakfast! must visit absolutely
- Leo (9/5): Superb - Position and also the structure A little old style
- Michael (10/5): One of our favorite experiences in Spain - Outstanding accommodation. Interesting old house in fine condition. Bedrooms comfortable and well appointed. Inside and outside sitting areas. Attentive and charming hostess. Very good food and nearby bars in delightful village. Should have stayed longer
- Veronica (10/5): - Alojamiento encantador. Cena casera estupenda. Para repetir.
- Stephen (9/5): This is a beautiful old building and Immaculada is really kind and helpful host. I only stayed one night but would love - It was a beautiful old building, very nicely decorated and furnished. Immaculada was kind and helpful. The food was good. The one thing that could have been better - the sound insulation. I could hear conversations in the rooms on either side.
- Malcolm (10/5): Exceptional -
- Aylin (9/5): Superb - The woman who runs the hotels was cooking lovely for dinner. Delicious and very authentic!
- Javier (10/5): Excelente in all aspects!!!! - It is a great place to stay. The owner did everything possible to make our stay perfect. We really enjoyed our time there. The only defect that I could think of is that it doesn't belong to me!
