This was our third visit to the hotel which I did rate as a basic but good hotel for the money but on my last visit in December 2008 I was disgusted. We wer given a room overlooking the narrow street on the front of the hotel which is noisey, dull and cold. When we went back to reception and... more

We have just returned home after our 4th stay at this hotel we love it, our room had a lovely sea view looking up to the windsurfing area, with a balcony that gets the sun till late evening , the staff are extremely helpfull, the food is great and the hotel is very clean. Roll on next year when we... more

Booked through Alpharooms for our stay in Feb 2008 so a bit late posting this review -sorry. We thought we had booked a sea view room, but on arrival found this was not the case. We were told any rooms booked through an agency were standard roomson the street side. We paid the extra to move to a sea view... more

Food very poor, even had rabbit on the menu...breakfast same thing really most days.Worst hotel i have stayed needs renovating ..Wish i listen to some of the reviews on here very nice location but there are some nice apartments near by and for only 50 euro a night over looking the sea...we were really upset about this hotel and food... more

The food really is something to avoid - everything was frozen and heated up, and the salads were old. The breakfast consisted of dried-up rolls which must have been a week old, and tesco-value style cereals. The "coffee" from the machine was the worst I have ever tasted. The local supermarket Hiperdino sells great fresh produce and freshly baked rolls,... more

Expect a series of major minor irritations, such as not having enough people on the desk, having only one plug per room making it awkward to charge cameras or mobiles and, in my experience, most... more

Spent 3 nights in mid March, booking via Hotelopia. Only land view h/b rates available. Noting sea views rooms are better from other reviewers, we requested a balcony and sea view room in the special requests box. One was available at check in for the 8 euro per nigt supplement. It is worth it, but we had room 117, which... more

24 Feb - 9 Mar 2008. We stayed at the El Medano on the above dates. Thanks to all the previous reviews we knew what to expect - we took our travel kettle with us (essential!) and upgraded rooms at 8 Euros/night on our arrival. There weren't any rooms available facing the beach and Montana Roja, so we were given... more
