"The Return should be required reading for anyone going to Spain this year...the historical tale is powerful stuff" Daily Mail

 

 

"The Return" is available for sale in our shop at Granada B&B Homestay

 

A powerful story of one family's tragedy during the Spanish Civil War, the book has brought its author, Victoria Hislop, to the top of the charts for the first time since her last novel The Island reached the coveted position in September 2006.

The book tells of how Sonia Cameron, a visitor to Granada, has a chance encounter with someone in a cafe and discovers that the place was once home to the Ramirez family.

With Franco's coup in 1936, they must choose sides and watch how their home, family and country are torn apart.

Boyd Tonkin recently reviewed the book for the Independent: "The Return aims to open the eyes of readers who mostly won't have read the voluminous literature of the war.

"The battle of memory against forgetting has to be fought on all fronts, and Hislop deserves a campaign medal for her efforts."

STAY AT VICTOR'S B&B IN GRANADA AND FEEL AT HOME!

HIGH STANDARD FAMILY ACCOMMODATION IN GRANADA

ROOMS WITH AND WITHOUT BATHROOM

A friendly Bed & Breakfast right in the centre of Granada (Spain)

GRANADA B&B HOMESTAY IS JUST 5 MINUTES AWAY ON FOOT FROM THE RAILWAY STATION. IT IS RIGHT IN THE CENTRE IN ONE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND MONUMENTAL DISTRICTS OF GRANADA. WE ARE RIGHT OPPOSITE THE GARDENS OF "TRIUNFO" AND THE "HOSPITAL REAL" VERY CLOSE TO POPULAR PLAZA NUEVA AND ELVIRA STREET. A COUPLE OF MINUTES ON FOOT FROM PLAZA DE LA UNIVERSIDAD AND THE UNIVERSITY CAMPUS. THE MONASTERY OF SAN JERONIMO, THE CHURCH AND HOSPITAL OF SAN JUAN DE DIOS AND MANY OTHER BEAUTIFUL SIGHTS ARE JUST AROUND THE CORNER. WE ARE CONNECTED BY DIRECT BUSES WITH EACH AND EVERY PART OF THE CITY, WITHOUT EXCEPTION, INCLUDING  THE CONFERENCE CENTRE (PALACIO DE CONGRESOS) AND THE BUS STATION. NO OTHER STREET IN GRANADA IS BETTER CONNECTED.

      

Unlike many hotels which have added the words "Bed" & "Breakfast" in their websites in order to fool search engines, Granada Bed and Breakfast Homestay is a real Bed & Breakfast place. That means you actually live with your host, truly enjoying Spanish hospitality and being always helped by his knowledge of the place and his experience without the traditional gaudiness and plastic feelings visitors get from most cities when staying in hotels.

 

The truth is that there are not many real Bed & Breakfasts in Spain, let alone in Granada, and among them only a few have their own website. The rest of them rely on a complex booking system provided by third parts that actually prevents you from making any direct arrangements with your hosts to be, or asking them any questions regarding your visit.

 

I am very proud to host one of the few sites available on the Internet providing authentic bed and breakfast and home-stay accommodation in Granada, and the only one in the centre (The most beautiful, monumental and well-off part of the centre, actually)

 

SO, IF THAT IS WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR,

CONGRATULATIONS, FOR YOU'VE FOUND IT!

 

Whenever you are a student of Spanish, a businessperson, a traveller or just a two day visitor, you can stay at Victor's Bed & Breakfast Homestay accommodation in Granada. You will live with a teacher of Spanish to adults and enjoy a hearty breakfast.

 

 

 

THE PLACE

 

What is Granada Homestay like?

 

The view from Granada Homestay's living room. That's what you are going to see while having your breakfast. Nice eh?

The view from the living room

 

Well, first of all, Granada B&B Homestay is right in the centre, in the most beautiful district of Granada, close to, and within walking distance of, almost everything. The view from the Living Room is just astonishing. Look at the picture above these lines -you can click on it- that's what you are going to see while having your breakfast. Nice eh? 

 

However, that is just the beginning. You might have thought that being in the busy centre our place is noisy and sleeping all night through an impossible thing to do. Nothing further from the truth! We are so proud to own a place that being close to everything (in the middle of everything actually) still can offer you the great pleasure of having a quiet, bright, cosy and spacious room!  Facilities include free broad band WI-FI Internet access in the living room and also in the bedrooms for those who bring their lap computer with them or any mobile device with WI-FI connection for that matter.

The clean, neat and comfortable apartment  is conveniently located in a very safe and close to everything area.  Anything of tourist interest in Granada, from  the Alhambra to the Albaicin, from the Cathedral to the University district is just a short walk away from the flat. Popular Elvira street with its many places to eat "tapas", bars, clubs and pubs is just across the corner while busy Pedro de Alarcón street and Einstein square with their young student atmosphere, night clubs, restaurants, pubs and kebab places is just a short 10 minute walk away.

 

Yet, believe it or not, the only noise you will here, in your room, is that of the birds singing in the morning, as the rooms do not face the main streets and they are amazingly quiet getting no traffic noise at all.

 

Of course, you can always help yourself to a cup of tea in the evenings and relax while listening to some of you nice mp3 nice music  after a long day out, or even smoking a narguile in the oriental corner. I will care about you while you are here and provide you with as much information as I can to help you making the most of your stay in this beautiful, full of history, Spanish city.

  Victor, your host at Granada B&B Homestay. Fell at home. Stay with us.  Victor, your host at Granada B&B Homestay. Fell at home. Stay with us.  Victor, your host at Granada B&B Homestay. Fell at home. Stay with us.

ALL IN ALL, I WILL ALWAYS TRY TO MAKE YOU FEEL AT HOME.  AND THAT IS WHAT A REAL BED AND BREAKFAST IS !
