On the other side of the city from the magnificent Alhambra fortress, Hospes Palacio de Los Patos offers a well-placed opportunity to soak up Moorish history by day but get under the skin of present-day Granada by night. Spanish and Latin American talents perform on poetry nights; and served on the hotel’s garden terrace, the restaurant expertly marries fine dining, Andalucían cuisine and inventive tapas.
