We have just recently returned from our holiday at the Hotel Hesperia Playa Dorada, in Playa Blanca. On arrival, we did find the reception quite slow when checking in - however another coach arrived at the same time, therefore the que was extremely long. We were given a pleasant room with a lovely sea view! The rooms were very clean,... more

We have just returned from 2 lovely weeks at the Playa Dorada. We normally stay at the Barcelo in Costa Teguise but this year wanted to try somewhere different so were slightly concerned when we read previous reviews about this hotel.

We only ate in the restaurant in the hotel twice. We found the food oh a high standard, there was a lot of choice. We didnt have to queue at all. Someone... more
