Much like Seville, the biggest expense of Granada is likely going to be accommodation, where prices are equal (and sometimes slightly less) to the Andalusian capital. Like in Seville, there is ample choice when it comes to accommodation ranging from high-end boutique hotels, to private apartment rentals, to a dorm room in a backpacker hostel. Depending on your budget, it is certainly possible to visit Granada and not spend a fortune on lodging if you know where to look. When it comes to activity prices, the most expensive thing you could buy (if you’re planning on visiting independently, without a guide) is a ticket to the Nasrid Palaces, Gardens, and Generalife of the Alhambra. Given the sheer vastness of the monument and the amount of restoration that is needed to keep visitors enjoying it for years to come, it does seem like a fair price to pay.
