First of all, If you haven't been in Lanzarote yet, don't think it anymore and just go. I have to admit that I was impressed with everything Lanzarote has to offer, the weather is fantastic all year round and despite some comments here, the Gran Melia Salinas still retains its greatness. The first thing that strikes you is the building... more

This is a comforatble hotel with excellent service, right on the beach. The grounds and public areas are very attractive and the Cesar Manrique influence makes it special. The hotel room (twin seaview and, large balcony) was comfortable, clean but in need of refurbishment which I understand is planned for 2010. The food is outstanding - high quality and a... more

After reading a few reviews on Tripadvisior, I had doubts as to whether we should stay at this hotel. Well, I should have following my conscience. We travel a lot and I can honestly say this is not a 5 star hotel. The service was not so good, the food was ok, great if you on the love boat. This... more

This year I've spent my summer holidays at the Gran Melia Salinas in Lanzarote with my wife and We have to say that the experience was simply amazing.

The rooms are comfortable but a little up-dating would... more

Pros: - Hotel has amazing architecture - Garden and pool is very inspiring - Very good food (lunch and buffet in the evening) - Nice and friendly staff - Good location close to beach, and still relatively non-touristy Cons: - Rooms relatively small - Fitness room is good but not perfect - You see that the hotel is 40 years... more

We stayed at the Gran Melia about three years ago and thought that it was past its sell by date and urgently required redecoration of the bedrooms and the public lounge areas. We were after a quiet peaceful week and on arrival heard the drilling sound and were told that renovations were in hand. The noise was quite awful but... more
