Large room, large bathroom with two basins, balcony with views over the mountains and electric shutters; what more is there to say? This hotel exceeded our expectations for the price we paid and the fact that nearly all the rooms have stunning views is a definite bonus. OK, so one of the girls on reception was not that friendly and... More

We booked the Parador de Cruz de Tejeda to avoid the tourist traps of the south coast. The whole place is really well kept and traditional. Staff are friendly, especially Estrella in the restaurant at breakfast time, as well as a couple of the women on reception. The free Wi-Fi and newspapers were much appreciated and great for practising our... More

We wanted a relaxing and luxurious spa break in the mountains. We spent four nights away from it all, and had a most enjoyable time. It was our third Parador stay, and like the two before, we felt we were being treated as royalty. We spent one of our days in the spa, sampling the Turkish baths and sauna. The... More

After having spent a couple of weeks among thousands of tourist in the Gran Canaria tourist machine, it was like coming to another world when we arrived at the Parador de Cruz de Tejeda. Perfectly situated 1500m above the sea with a superb view from all the rooms. We enjoyed two days here in a very quiet and relaxed atmosphere.... More

We wanted a nice hotel in the mountains to see some more of what Gran Canaria has to offer in late December 2011 and were very happy with our choice. We came quite early in the afternoon and got the room right away. Nice, large room but smelled like someone had been smoking there earlier. They sent someone over right... More

Great experience in this stunning parador wonderfully located. Brand new the spa welcomes you in the basement with circuit spa, sauna, Turkish baths and chill out area. Dining area is rather simple but very well designed with a mix of modern and wooden style decoration. Food was good and service very attentive. We can definitely recommend this place for quality...

The hotel is located in the middle of the island, and right on the top of a mountain. Great for exploring the countryside. We had one of the best views from our hotel room I have ever seen. This was not just lucky for us but is available in every room of the hotel. The spa is small but very... More

An astonishing setting, beautiful views with fine walks straight from the Parador. The upper floor in the old part of the building only gives views of the sky - so recommend second floor of the new section - balconies straight onto the mountains. Our experience of food and service was excellent (in contrast with some of the other reviews -... More

A belated review!!! Our one-night stay was more than comfortable up in the top floor romantic attic-style room with jacuzzi bath. Great for gazing at the stars out of the velux windows but not as easy to see the views of Mount Teide as from the rooms with balconies on the floors below. Soundproofing between rooms could be a touch... More
