This is indeed a little piece of heaven on earth. The intimate an clean Alhambra is a real bijoux. Situated on the best strech of beach in the heart of Playa del Carmen. The staff, especially at the reception and the restaurant, is very helpful an polite an not saving at all a nice smile to their clients. I can... more

Though I've been to Playa before, this was my first time staying at the Alhambra. There were things I liked and disliked about the hotel, so here's a breakdown. Pros - 1. Location - right off a very vibrant part of 5th Ave, on 8th St. Easy walk to ferry and bus terminal, as well as everything on 5th Ave.....can't... more

Stayed for the second time at the Alhambra in Playa del Carmen from May 8-17, 2008. I had shared their BEST room with a friend last August (2007) and just HAD to return to share it with my fiance for 9 days!! I can't say enough about this place. While we certainly did stay in their BEST room (#14 -... more

We just returned from 8 beautiful days in Playa. We chose Hotel Alhambra for our stay because it seemed like an excellent value- and it delivered. The Hotel overlooks the exquisite Caribbean sea and sits right on the beach. We ate our breakfast each morning at the on-site restaurant with our toes in the sand and later enjoyed a cerveza... more

Checking ratings on different hotels in Playa only showed that you can't please everybody all the time. Reviews were mixed on every hotel. We chose the Alhambra due to the location directly on the beach and the reasonable rates. It quickly... more

We had stayed at a nearby hotel 2 years ago but came to love the Alhambra because of the good drinks and great beach service. We decided if we ever came back to Playa we would stay there. Our room was bright, clean, and quiet and all of the employees were extremely friendly and helpful. Gonzales even remembered us from... more

My wife and I stayed at the Alhambra for ten days on our first visit to Playa del Carmen. I chose the hotel because primarily because of its beach location but also due to the fact that they host yoga classes in a oceanfront studio and and have an onsite restaurant which features vegetarian selections. I don't partake in either... more

We stayed at the Hotel Alhambra for the first three nights of our vacation in Quintana Roo. The Hotel Alhambra is right in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Playa del Carmen and on the beach. It is not really the place to stay for total beach relaxation (no pool, crowded beach), but is a great HQ while... more

Absolutely wonderful! This hotel is Clean, Clean, Clean, and understands what customer service is all about! Add to that the perfect in town location, a tasty free breakfast and affordable pricing and you have a real gem. The only negative I can think of is that the rooms are a bit small. I´m not here to spend time in my... more
