Very good location
3.0 / 10.0
No parking possibility in front of hotel so you can't jump in, check in your bags and then find parking. Need to find a parking spot along the street on the back of the hotel first, then walk to the hotel. Parking is however free.
So this hotel worked fine for me, when I was passing by Almeria, so I got what I paid for and can't really complain.

Lovely modern hotel just outside of the centre of Almeria.
Ŵe were only there for one night but very comfortable stay.
And the woman on reception was so helpful and helped us find a lovely restaurant just around the corner.

Good breakfast. Parking relatively easy in local streets.

Able to check in upon arrival at midday. Underground parking very secure and reasonably priced. Hotel is fairly modern and rooms were good sized and clean. Location is close to a shopping mall and about 30 minute stroll to tourist attractions but taxi ride also only about €5 each way.
4.0 / 10.0
This hotel is fine. However it seems to be based around business customers who normally aren't there at the weekend, so they close the bat on friday and reopen on monday. This is absurd. There were quite a few people staying so they should provide the service of having a bar on site. Breakfast was quite expensive, 15 euros I think so we had breakfast in the bar across the road. There was plenty of free street parking available next to the hotel so no need to pay 11 euros for their car park.

Nice clean comfy hotel with free safe street parking. Only issue is its a half hour walk to the waterfront but theres not much to see there anyway. As for hotels this one's great value

Not in centre of city and approx a 15 minute walk to get there, however that suited us and the walk was pleasant. We were next to a large shopping complex so that was a bonus.Staff pleasant and friendly, breakfast was good
4.0 / 10.0
Hotel was nice, but a bit far out of the centre. Rooms were nice and clean and breakfast was good, but typically the warm food was a bit cool. Parking is underground and costs 11 euros. There is enough space to park without difficulty. There is some free street parking outside but it always seemed to be full, so we just used the car park. Next door is a shopping centre with a handy food court. There are a few restaurants nearby but I would say you are better off eating somewhere in the town centre. We walked everywhere and it took about 30 mins to get to the town centre and the Alcazar. Almeria itself is OK. Its been used as a movie location, both the town and the Alcazar, as has the Tabernas desert which is nearby inland. We found the streets of Almeria to be a bit dirty.

This hotel is geared towards the business traveller, as a tourist it is too far at the edge of town from the attractions, ie the Alcazaba and cathedral and a good bus ride to the beach
Although the staff are nice, there was only one member of staff on in the evenings, the bar and restaurant closed on Friday, by which time we decided to leave early. Not recommended unless on business

Hotel was nice and clean. Next to the mall. Not super close to the beach... good 45 minute walk or you can take a bus. The old center of Almeria can be reached by bus and is very historic. Breakfast was great and had lots of choices. If you need to travel to Almeria for work or something this hotel is good.

A pity we were not advised that the hotel restaurant is closed on a Friday evening.

Good experience, hotel clean and room was good. Only thing against it was that the restaurant and bar was not open, doesnt open over the weekend, a bit strange, however we already knew this from previous reviews.

Issue with the pet policy on booking it states a charge of €20 per pet per stay, when we get there we are told that it's per pet per night making the budget stay more expensive. What do you get for the extra €20 a night for your pet. NOTHING, other hotels give you a pet bed, provide water dishes etc but you get nothing at this hotel.
10.0 / 10.0
Restaurant is not open all the time. Tough to get morning coffee
1.5 / 10.0
It was typical of a small European hotels. I would probably spend the extra to stay closer to the beach since it's so pretty on the Mediterranean.

Loved the hotel, only problem was the noisy air conditioning in the room
1.0 / 10.0
The hotel was ok and the service was friendly but it was very slow during any point of contact (check-in, check-out, enquiries etc). My air-con only blew warm air and when I asked to move rooms I was told I couldn't as they were full. I challenged this (as I could see there were vacancies online) to be then told that it wouldn't matter if I moved room as all the air-con was set to warm for the whole hotel at this time of year, not what it said in the hotel description. So I was lied to twice, disappointing. And finally the food available for breakfast was just about ok too.

Very kind and friendly staff. Sadly the two sheets on my bed appeared to have been attacked by small moths and the only blanket was torn. Other than that the room and shower room were fine.

near commercial centre, good bus connection to the centre and the beach. In the room there were problems with wi-fi. But we found a golden solution: every ten minutes you need to disconnect and connect again, then it works.

We arrived mid afternoon on a Sunday and it was so quiet, no other guests in the lobby, I thought we might be the only guests in the hotel for the night. It was thus a big surprise at breakfast on Monday morning to see many others. There's no pool, just an area to sit in the sun. Hotel restaurant opening hours are a bit odd, but there is a choice of other places to eat nearby. Very convenient for the large shopping centre next door, and just 15 to 20 minutes to the airport. Staff were very helpful.

A comfortable stay. A little way out of the city but was fine for our one night stay. Excellent staff who were very happy to help with any questions we had. Rooms comfortable and quiet. Breakfast limited for our appetites!
4.0 / 10.0
The hotel was fairly modern & definitely aimed at the business traveller. Dont think the star rating was warranted as no tea or coffee making facilities in the room.
5.0 / 10.0
The hotel itself and the staff were excellent. I communicated in Spanish with them although, they appeared to speak/know some English. Even though we were there in August, the bar/restaurant was pretty quiet with predominantly Spanish tourists. You could watch TV in the bar area and have a tea/coffee as and when. The rooms do not have a balcony and there is no swimming pool on site. We were told about a gym on the main road, where you could get a discount. Right next to the hotel, there is a good shopping centre which also has a cinema and restaurants/cafes.
However, the hotel location is not brilliant which is such as shame because the hotel itself is very good. To get around Almeria you would need to get a bus or hire a car. Even though, the man at the hotel told us that the public transport in Almeria is not great, we have to disagree. Once you have worked out the bus system with the help of a map, it is not difficult and pretty cheap (every journey was the same price regardless of the distance). Get the 2,5,11 to the centre and get the 12 to the beach and in the melting heat of 40 degrees you would not want to spend an hour walking! The buses do stop around 10.30 so if we were in the centre late, we would get a taxi back which wasn't too expensive.
The hotel is part of a chain of hotels, I would try use them in another city. The price you pay for the hotel with Expedia is very reasonable and would be much more expensive if you were going to pay for it separately.

Husa Gran Fama is a quiet hotel which is probably used for buisness travellers
I found the staff in this hotel spoke good English and were very helpful at all times
There is a restaurant which I didn't use and also a bar which is comfortable
My room in the hotel was very clean and spacious with comfortable beds
Bathroom had all the usual bath shower etc.
There are a few cafes and bars close by as well as plenty of banks Two minutes away behind hotel is fantastic commercial complex with loads on shops bars and restaurants
5.0 / 10.0
I was on a business trip but spent a couple of hours sight seeing each day. The cost of the room was excellent value,about 30% less than the UK motorway lodges. Meals not included, as the restaurents in the area are excellent. As a business hotel, it was very good, about 4 years old, rooms modern, bed comfortable for my 6ft 4 inch frame! light and clean. Room sevice until 11:30pm, generous portions and not expensive. There is no tea or coffee in the room, which i would have appreciated. Pleasent and polite staff, all taxies ordered arrived within 3 to 5 mins at reception. Almeria centre 10 to 15 mins drive, airport any 20 mins. I have to be honest and say this is the best value hotel i have stayed in for a long time, for business and sightseeing, but not a family hotel, no balcony or swimming pool, but for 38 pounds a night its still excellent value.
