Read the reviews before we went so were open minded and the hotel is a real find of a place and looks to be on the upward slope. We had fresh linen every day, fresh towels and soaps and bizarelly tooth brushes and paste and a comb also. Staff were superb and very friendly with out being overbearing and soon... More

This hotel is ideal if you are arriving in the Airport late at night and want to get a room nearby. The resort is very spanish and not spoilt. The hotel is clean and the food is good. It is on the beach and less than 10 mins taxi from the Airport. More

This hotel is very basic for the price.100 euros for one night bed and breakfast should get you more. Stayed one week, the cleaners only left soap once.The cleaning left a lot to be desired ,actually timed them one day 7 minutes to clean, says it all.That was how petty it became.The furniture and decor resemble a school dormitory.

Essentially ok and some staff were friendly and helpful, but I would expect both service and maintenance to be very good in a hotel like this on Tenerife. A lot of effort was made to provide a nice New Year's Eve party, but I could not help getting the nagging impression that management are only in it for the money.... More

Friendly staff don't make up for no kettle, no remote for TV, no air con, terrible breakfast, awful bathroom, towels not fit for a car boot sale, and no bar open on a Sunday night! The hotel is in a great location but it is tatty and obviously lacking resources. 88 euros for a seaview is taking a liberty. More

Was nice clean hotel, bit on the old fashioned side. no kettle or air con. Rather expensive to upgrade to sea view but worth it. Food hall is really that, more like a canteen. Not especially good, but there was something for every-one. We stayed in August for a week, was a quiet area, mostly locals. Need a car to... More

Had the wonderful good luck to be in town for its Summer Fiesta. Plaza packed daily & nightly with crowds of happy local families and tourists. Free (and high quality) entertainment from afternoon to the wee hours of the morning. Hotel faultless, food plentiful and very eatable (esp the braised steak) !! Staff could not have been more helpful or... More

We stayed in El Medano for the windsurfing, this is the first time in the hotel. It was lovely, this well run hotel is a credit to all who work there. Breakfast was very nice good selection to choose from and the staff very courteous, the sun deck is excellent as was the service and food throughout the day. You... More

I love this town and hotel. It has a faded charm and would look perfectly acceptable as the back drop to an Agatha Christie murder novel. With the deco design of a cruise ship that sits partly in the sea, the views of the beach and rock that defines El Medano, are beautiful especially at sunset. The town is very... More
