My wife & I stayed at the Gran Castillo for a week in early May. Having stayed at the Dream Tacande Hotel in Tenerife we were expecting similar, however they are different hotels in some respects.

The hotel staff made us feel special with bottles of chapmagne, chocolates and cards. (all without asking) The hotel is a maze of alley ways and tunnels which can be a... More

Upon arrival we were instantly offered a glass of champagne, great touch. The porter then showed us to our room for which we have to say was a magnificent... More

There had been negative remarks made about this Company on the internet, but luckily we had a positive experience with our air travel, transfers and hotel booking. The hotel staff thoughout our week were friendly and helpful and our room,... More
