Both revolutionary and innovative in equal parts, just as “the two rivers of Granada flow down from the snow to the wheat”, his legacy is palpable from Sierra Nevada to the Nasrid city.
A 10-MINUTE WALK FROM THE ALHAMBRA
A small staircase leads to the heart of the building: El Teatrillo, The “Little Theater” of the Palace The place where the casino, dearly loved by the Duke, once stood and where countless treasured moments are shared today. Culture, history, sentiment, and poetry in an integral city space.
Its size makes it ideal for chamber music, solo recitals, and small performances. It lends itself more toward intimacy and closeness than grandiose sumptuousness.
In June 1922, a flamenco song contest was held in this theater called “El Concurso del Cante Jondo” (The Contest of the Deep Song). This was a milestone event, since it was the first recognition of flamenco as cultured music.
In the early 80's o f the last century, the heirs of the Duke of San Pedro de Galatino, took over the management of the hotel directly, being today a reference of luxury tourism at international level.
The team at Hotel Alhambra Palace has written with great love and meticulous care the story of the hotel, about its creator and the distinguished personages who have stayed there.
