Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Plaza del Carmen was one area we visited more than once during our short stay in Granada. It is a really nice area, large enough for various events to take place and to walk around, sit down, visit shops and just hang out. We chose a couple of cafes in the area and had some tasty coffee.

Lovely old plaza. Town Hall is located here on site of a former convent- or two ! There are some excellent tapas bars on roads to the rear of the square.

While roaming in the busy city center of Granada, this is a nice resting place at a central location. One can sit for a while, have a drink and plant the next move. There is nothing special in the place itself, just a nice place to sit and relax for a while.

The highlight of this square is absolutely the stunning Ayuntamiento de Granada, the municipal government building.
There are local parades and celebrations held on the square, which makes it one of the most important squares in the city.

This is where it all happens in Granada. This large plaza is where all the groups meet for tours. There are restaurants and many shoppes around here. Lots to do and lots of people to watch.

The Plaza del Carmen is a really beautiful old square with many historic buildings. It is a pedestrian area and was beautifully illuminated especially with the Christmas lights. Plenty of bars and restaurants nearby

One of the many squares in Granada, the plaza is home of the Ayuntiamento de Granada with the city's coat of arms embedded in the paving and the square used to promote city events.

Plaza del Carmen is a historical square near the centre of town with several good buildings. The square is named after the old Carmen convent which has been demolished and an imposing town hall building has replaced it.
