We visited El Cielo de Canar for 6 nights and it was a lovely experience - worth the initially scary drive up from the village (try to arrive in daylight). The setting is perfect for relaxation and enjoying the rugged beauty of Las Alpujarras. The decor is tasteful throughout and it is spotlessly clean. Attention is given to detail with... more

Complete relaxation was just what was needed and El Cielo de Canar delivered this and more. The location is breath-taking: wonderful views across the mountains to the Med and the surrounding villages. The only sounds are from the bells of the goats making their way down the mountain in the evening. The night sky is just a revelation - stars... more

"Where the hell are you taking me?", said the wife as we climbed a thin strip of tarmac on the edge of a rather large mountain. "On top of the world" could be a description of El Cielo de Canar and that is certainly how you will feel on arriving there. This is a small five-room hotel hosted by John... more

This place is a real find. It is a modern converted barn-like building. The rooms are very recently and well deocrated with excellent installations. The setting is majestic up in the mountains with amazing views. The hotel is peaceful and quiet . The stars shine brightly at night which is a scene one almost forgets living in a big city.... more

There really is no more anyone can add - it is a wonderful place where you are able to completely relax and unwind. The hotel is in a beautiful spot and you are made to feel very welcome. We too had the place to ourselves which inevitabley enhances the experience. The honesty bar and lovely meals are a delight and... more

I found this hotel thanks to Trip Advisor, and I'm so glad I did. It's astonishing: charming rooms, beautiful location and - most important - wonderful hosts who make you feel as though you're staying with friends rather than at a very good hotel. Attentive but never intrusive, it seems to me they've gone and created the hotel they'd always... more

This place was even better than we expected - the other reviews said it was great and it really, truly is. The location is perfect if you want a beautiful, quiet, relaxing break away from the hustle and bustle of Granada. When we stayed for 3 nights, we were the only guests so we had the run of the place... more

Just when you think that you might have taken a wrong turn some time back, and can surely climb no higher up the mountain you stumble across El Cielo de Canar! The warm welcome and spectacular views make you feel instantly spoiled, and the relaxed nature of the hotel is a welcome change. The rooms are tastefully and elegantly decorated... more

This place is a real gem. John and Orna have created a beautiful and charming oasis, where service is about the guest and not the hotel. Any venue where a G&T is offered on arrival is my kind of hotel. If your idea of getting away from it all is sitting on a terrace, in the early evening and the... more
