The only real negative to the complex the meal times are and their scheme. Until one in the restaurant to the specified time at the table sits, passes some minute/quarter/half-hour. Read more

A great vacation for us and the two children (6 years). Weather: Sunshine 22/23°C, for swimming in the pool okay. Room number 5254 wonderful view over entire bay. Not far to the papagayo- beach -ideal for waves jumping for children. Wonderful Scenic walk along the coast along. Food very varied, for children super, since this itself can select, on quantity us offer. Staff always very helpful and always friendly all understood German!. We will be back. Read more

Good place, no choice 5 star real, the all inclusive audience does the niece. Many children, often noisy, even late at night. food is often only lukewarm, selection is however good. We were the third time, since the change to 'all inclusive' offered but suffers a bit. Read more

      The hotel area was really very nice The rooms are huge and clean We had booked a room with a view of the sea But got one with a view to the wall of a house (the sea was four imagination to anticipate) after complaining, we were told, that there is no alternative Then we were really furious and the hotel manager showed a 'compassion' and we could then decide between two rooms with a view of the sea We only recommend the hotel The food was really bad, including the in-house restaurant Since we had booked all inclusive, we can for breakfast, snack bar, lunch and dinner say.

Room

    • in September 10
      Because you had to step over a mountain walk and it is very steep, we took the car went The hotel's own beach would not recommend we (and many stones), not really be described as a beach The pool areas are clean and are cleaned daily Our room was very clean (great bathroom) What bothered us a bit was the number of English tourists and that the staff throughout the hotel no German could do nothing without English.
    • in March 10
      You will need a rental car in Lanzarote, to discover the beautiful island We were here for the third time Was wonderful The hotel has about 50 sqm wonderful standard room, great bathroom, walk-in closet The friendliness of the staff was very impressive.

      Food was very good, freshly prepared, delicious from the grill fish and meat; Abdullah the fun roaster at the grill, competent, friendly and speak all the languages of the world Great rooms, really the only thing to complain about was the cold water in the pool; we would just like a little swam; brr was not.

      ) the food was varied, but the taste and the quality was not five stars standard (hardly any spices in use, meat and fish mostly dry and tough), the coffee was undrinkable for us The service in the restaurant was unfortunately not satisfactory Drink orders were taken very slow No service at the pool bar and sports bar, all self service The service at the front desk was excellent.
    • in October 10
      One can only further recommend the hotel We have enjoyed it very muchSize of room, as well as facilities were excellent Service was very goodIt is just a pity, the rocky beach in front of the hotel.

    • in January 10
      We were looking for relaxation in a short time, unfortunately only had a week But it is precisely this wonderful location in very good conditions We felt very comfortable and with a heavy heart, after a great short vacation, again with the left, our stay at the Gran Castillo definitely repeatWe had the room 5263 in the castle with a breathtaking view of the sea!
  • great location
    • in May 10
      Pluses and minuses: the hotel was located in a quiet, but also a bit out of the way There is no beach The lobby made a clean impression, but if you look closer to, one discovers slightly worn and stained pillow covers The rooms are very spacious (including the bathroom), but it gives-despite changing room-hardly any possibilities, to store clothes tidy The pool area made a good impression, however, there are some renovation needy and quite a lot of the numerous umbrellas were brokenThe restaurant made a rather sober impression and I would like to see it, if the hotel is fully bookedWe had booked all-inclusive and half board-the same food as guests and this was really not our idea of five stars The relatively large selection of the meals could not conceal the fact, that quantity instead of quality was The fruit (mostly not riped melons) looked pretty unsightly from Really bad was the 'food' at the pool barI would like to mention but the staff All were extremely friendly and helpful The five stars earned theOur conclusion was: nice vacation, but rental cars-five stars and all-inclusive is completely at odds.
    • in December 10
      We had our vacation on November/December Booked with the hotel we were satisfied all around To the sandy beach about 20 minutes you need Staff and service were good, a friendly word and a smile often help The guests were mostly English and Spanish Beach chairs were sufficiently available and the pool was cleaned every day Incomprehensible for us was the fact that some guests had booked half Sion For us it was a nice vacation and egg N Hotelrecommend.
    • in December 10
      The hotel has actually deserves five stars The rooms are spacious and clean, the furnishings were completely The whole area was in a great condition, the pool area generous and with sufficient couches equippedTo the sandy beaches you have to undertake a short walk, the 'beach' -a bit rocky-is directly in front of the hotelTo the local center one can go to foot in half an hour, more comfortable with the city bus-the stop is close to the hotel.

    • in October 11
      Food great quantity but just boring why not a nice paella instead of 6 boring rice dishes? Also breakfast tons of choice but again why not a nice piece of bacon and british sausage instead of cava and caviare the majority of guests were Brits .
    • in September 10
      Some people did then only in the afternoon again Without this 'attitude ' that people would always sufficient beach chairs available former So it was a little tight, especially as some supplies were defectBuffet: we always found something and were always full and were almost always very satisfied, but never so enthusiastic There was rarely really great food, it was good, but unfortunately not more than thatStaff were very friendly!

      2, 5 hours for our room, at that time we talked with the lady at the front desk, the spoke of our wedding The surprise was, that we had a senior suite (we had booked Junior suite) without extra charge got The hotel is very well maintained, the food was very varied with friendly staff main handling language was English but also German was understoodThe only downside is, that the guests the quality of the two meal times is shown as almost everywhere and the pool chairs in front ofthe breakfast to be occupied by British and Spanish, to thisTime (vacations England/Spain) 70 percent to about the hotel occupiedAs we have stayed in many good hotels all over the world commodity, we believethis hotel with good conscience recommend.
