Alternatively, it’s a 40-minute walk, or a €8–12 taxi ride.

Take the airport bus to the city center (€3.50, paid on board) and get off at Triunfo or Cathedral stops. From there, it’s a 10-minute walk to the hostel, with Cathedral offering the most scenic route.
A taxi from the airport costs around €25–30 (approx. 25 minutes).
From Granada Train Station
A taxi takes around 10 minutes and costs approximately €6–10.
You can also walk to the hostel in about 15 minutes.
