The hotel is well located, minutes from the beach, over the road from a shopping centre with food court and in the north of las palmas, near plenty of bus routes. All rooms have a balcony and the rooms are very clean, modern in style and comfortable (good quality furnishings). The only oddity was the way the water from the shower leaked over the bathroom floor - solved however by using one of the main towels on the floor pressed up against the outside corner of the bath! The rooms was cleaned to perfection every day (including replacing said towel!). You have control over your own air con - including turning it off if not required. The free mini bar is restocked each day with water, fanta, coca cola, and beer and the fridge is large enough to add a few of your own items if desired. The hotel also has mini safes through reception which are also free of charge. Reception is friendly with enough English to communicate if you don't speak Spanish (we don't). With so many other eateries in the area, we did not try the hotel restaurant but it looked like it had a great view, as does the pool area. Most guests at the hotel are Spanish business people. The hotel is not geared up to tourist requests like booking island tours - and indeed the whole of Las Palmas tends to be a Spanish holiday destination rather than an English one (but hey that's why we loved it). However, we booked a great one-day island tour through an agent in the South of the Island (worth seeing but 3 hours is ample to absorb the concrete structure, sand dunes, and burnt brits although the promenade around the light house at the point is pleasant. The agency was Viajes Islas Canarias tours and their email is [--] or local phone number [--]. They certainly spoke German, English and Spanish. Back in Las Palmas, we particularly enjoyed eating at the Mexican restaurant called Viva Zapata at la naval 4 (walk north along beach promenade and it's right at the NH hotel on the front and almost immediately on your right. There is plenty to do in the city, easy access to other towns on local buses and even a good science museum just round the corner from the AC.

We went to Gran Canaria for our honeymoon. The hotel is not quite suitable for tourists. It is really nice with big rooms, clean and modern and A FREE MINIBAR, but it accomodates people who travel for business rather than tourists. We stayed there for a week and we were really pleased and excited with this hotel, as we chose to book it by reading the reviews in tripadvisor. The last day our flight was leaving really late at night, so we asked for a late check out. First they said it was ok and that even if this was impossible they will arrange a room for us in order to change etc. Unfortunately, when the day arrived not only they refuse to give us a room but they made us to change in the gym's toilets as they could not do anything else.We were really tired and angry with their attitude as they did not seem to care at all, despite the fact that we stayed in this hotel for one week!We left the hotel with bad memories as we did not expect they would have treat us in this way.

We have just returned from eight days at the AC las Palmas. The hotel staff were extremely friendly with no request being too much trouble. The rooms were large, clean and serviced every day. Free minibar in the room.

The swimming pool on the 25th floor afforded 360 degree views to die for.

The hotel is ideally located between the port area and the beach on the west side of the peninsular. close to numerous bars, restaurants and shops.

All in all, a great choice and if I am ever back in GC, then I will definitely stay there again.

PS For breakfast and drinks in the evening go to Santa Catalina Park and visit the numerous bars. Lolitas was good but might not be everyones cup of tea.

Las Palmas is a city that needs to be discovered. It's not as touristic as the south of Gran Canaria and that makes AC hotel Las Palmas a place for business travellers from especially Spain but also leisure travelers. So the atmosphere of this hotel is less "touristic" and more "original", which is very nice. Design of hotel, rooms and restaurant is modern, clear and clean, so it's an atmosphere to feel comfortable in. The only disadvantage was that I could not order from the roomservice as noone was able to speak English. The breakfast buffet is good and from the restaurant you have a wonderful view on the haven and the city. Tip: Ask for a room on a high floor, you will enjoy the wonderful view!
