just returned from a week at this hotel - was with hubby and 2 year old. Overall was very good- quiet and spacious and lovely grounds and pools. We had a room which opened onto the kids pool so ideal for us. The bigger pool is in a different area so your kids can make as much noise as they... more

We would definitely book another holiday at the Gran Melia Volcan Lanzarote, but if you like to spend your holiday dancing until dawn or being chaperoned by tour reps among lots of other English people who don't speak a word of Spanish, this probably isn't the hotel for you!! We had visited Lanzarote before but, as it was our 30th... more

On arriving at the hotel the entrance gives high expectations and the feeling that you are entering a 5 star hotel. When entering our allocated room I instantly felt disappointed. Our party were given a double room which was ok, but the bathrooms were unclean. The size of the rooms were good but the rooms were more of a 3... more

Just returned from this hotel and i can tell you it is definately not 5 star, half of the facilities were closed and you only had choice of one buffet restaurant which served 2 star quality food, covered in fly's and cold. the restaurants mentioned in the brochure are actually in the marina, which you have to pay extra for,... more

This is a newish hotel that has been designed to feel like a Lanzarotean village - all the rooms are in slightly different small blocks imitating village houses, with different exteriors and balconies. This means that it's quite difficult to compare the prices online - I suspect that there are probably relatively few room layouts but lots of different locations... more

We have just returned from this hotel, is is lovely, peaceful and quiet - because it was only 30% full. No queing for breakfast or dinner in fact half the restaurant was empty, I would recommend this hotel to older couples BUT there was hardly any evening entertainment so early nights every night, only 1 restaurant out of 4 open,... more

First of all - we will go back! The location and potential of the hotel is fantastic, the service of the staff was efficient and very polite, the cleanliness is perfect. We booked Royal service bed and breakfast - not convinced Royal Service is worth much, except for a private breakfast room and lounge, business centre and a very nice... more

We stayed at the Gran Volcan in April this year - lovely hotel, very clean, good amenities, attractive comfortable rooms, beautiful swimming pool, good food. I was 7.5 months pregnant and with my 2 year old - could walk into Playa Blanca via lovely prom in about 45 mins, reckon I could have done it in 25 mins without the... more

Have just enjoyed a week in this hotel in a very beautiful and spacious setting. Lovely rooms and pleasant people.The drawbacks were the almost total lack of entertainment of any sort. Animateurs just sat in their club house handing out towels. All the advertised activities just didn't happen and apart from the odd saxophonist with two people listening to him... more
