The Gastronomic Garden at Hospes Palacio de los Patos: a new lifestyle retreat in the heart of Granada

By | 22 May, 2026 | 0 comments

The renovated Jardín Gastronómico at Hospes Palacio de los Patos redefines luxury hospitality in Granada with gastronomy, art, nature, and wellness on a unique terrace in the city centre.

A new lifestyle setting in the heart of Granada

In the centre of Granada, the 5★ Gran Lujo boutique hotel Hospes Palacio de los Patos unveils a new chapter with the enhancement of its renovated Jardín Gastronómico, an open-air space that has become one of the city’s most distinctive settings for enjoying gastronomy, social gatherings, and summer evenings in a calm, elegant, and deeply sensory atmosphere.

Surrounded by lush greenery and framed by the historic architecture of a 19th-century palace declared a Site of Cultural Interest, the garden has been conceived as a natural extension of the hotel. Following its recent renovation by Bárbara Chapartegui and Alejandro Briones, the property has been reinterpreted through a contemporary lens that respects its heritage while elevating it through design, lighting, materials, and carefully curated staging. A selection of artworks further enriches the aesthetic and cultural experience throughout the building.

Gastronomy and open-air experiences

The Jardín Gastronómico stands as an urban retreat where nature, design, and gastronomy exist in perfect harmony. It is designed for experiencing Granada differently: outdoor brunches, sunset gatherings, intimate cocktails, or summer evenings with soft music and a sophisticated atmosphere that invites guests to linger.

The culinary proposal strengthens this lifestyle identity with a renewed menu that highlights local produce and Andalusian cuisine from a contemporary perspective. Chef Pilar Romeral leads this concept with a market-driven cuisine that blends technique, sensitivity, and respect for ingredients, creating an experience that resonates with both the surroundings and the spirit of the destination.

Restaurante Los Patos, wellness and Gran Lujo hospitality

This experience is further elevated at the hotel’s restaurant, Restaurante Los Patos, where a tasting menu has been designed to showcase the essence of the culinary project through dishes that evolve with the seasons and the local territory, always with a refined and contemporary approach.

Beyond gastronomy, the hotel enhances its wellness offering with spaces such as Bodyna Spa, designed as a place of calm and holistic relaxation. This integrated approach reinforces a hospitality concept where wellbeing becomes a natural part of the stay.

The recent recognition as a 5★ Gran Lujo hotel places Hospes Palacio de los Patos at the highest category of hotel excellence, confirming a concept that seamlessly blends hospitality, design, art, gastronomy, and wellness. This distinction strengthens its position as one of the most exclusive references in Granada and Andalusia.

With this new chapter, the hotel reaffirms its identity as a place where history is experienced through a contemporary sensibility. A destination where heritage and modernity come together to offer a different way of living the city—more intimate, more aesthetic, and more emotional.

Hospes Hotels continues to strengthen its vision of boutique luxury hospitality, focusing on soulful destinations, historic architecture, and experiences that connect authentically with place and detail.
