The German edition of GEO magazine awards Granada’s Palacio de los Patos as second best design hotel in Europe.

Miami Beach, FL,  March 22, 2007 – Hospes Palacio de los  Patos: an ideal blend of service and superb customer service, design and comfort. All to provide its guests with the opportunity for true rest and a world of revitalising sensations. This is why the German edition of the prestigious GEO magazine, after having compiled a list of the continent’s 70 top hotels, has acknowledged this property as the second best design hotel in Europe. Epoque Hotels is pleased to announce this tremendous achievement and wishes to congratulate Hospes for this happy occurrence.

Situated in an old palace in the heart of the historic and commercial area of Granada, Spain, the Palacio de los Patos is a five-star hotel in which interaction between its striking exterior architecture and the modern elegance of its interiors yield a unique space that calls for relaxation and rest.

The Palacio de los Patos faithfully represents Hospes’ commitment to the recovery of the architectural, historical and cultural heritage of each of its sites, without renouncing the most innovative design and stylish comfort. These aspects have been acknowledged in the award of these two prestigious international prizes. The hotel has 42 exquisitely decorated rooms and select Senzone cuisine based on the natural quality of local products. It also features the Bodyna Spa, an extremely complete set of services designed for the guests’ wellbeing.

The Palacio de los Patos also received two other important prizes last year at the SLEEP 06 European Hotel Design Awards: the “2006 Hotel Design of the Year” and the “Best Hotel Architecture” award in the “Conversion” category. Epoque Hotels and all its staff applaud Hospes for maintaining such a high standard in the world of hospitality.
