Very nice stay
Well-equipped, quiet and clean appartment. Nice pool with plenty of beds, always some free. Nice staff. Not far from the beach. Supermarket nearby. Bus stop with buses to many directions 7 minutes walking distance.
Great 2 weeks at el palmar
First time visiting to gran canaria El palmar was great Our room was fantastic on 4th floor sun on balcony all day cooking amenities perfectly adequate Sitting area comfortable And a comfy bed Room was of a high standard as was bathroom Only thing missing aircon as it was bloody hot Pool area Can honestly say best experience of a pool area in all my years abroad fantastic pool no fighting over sunbeds No matter the time of day you went always beds available and a great pool with lifeguard on duty Staff were great Grounds were spotless and we'll maintained Place was great shall we return more than likely Funnily this was as I say our first time in gran canaria but we are going to amadores view in October hope it stands up to el palmar
Pleasant stay
I have just stayed 7 nights and i can't really complain. The lack of air conditioning was really surprising, I just assumed every hotel has Aircon. Obviously not! Luckily I was on the top floor, I slept with the door open and lights off. I didn't get any bugs. Thankfully, Gran Canaria does cool down on a night. I feel sorry for those on the ground floor, they can't sleep with the doors and windows open. You do get a tower fan, but they're not the best.
The overall apartment is okay. It's very well equipped with all of your kitchen needs. The beds are comfy and it is generally very clean. However, the cover to shower drain has never been cleaned. The bottom of shower screen needs attention. And as usual some of the walls are marked. They just need that bit more attention to detail.
The pool area is pleasant and clean. It's actually very quiet. There aren't many loungers but there is always enough.
I am a very well experienced visitor to GC as I have been 10 times, the location of the hotel is perfect. 10 mins walk to yumbo, 10 mins walk to the beach.
Overall, it's an okay place to stay. But would I return, it has to be a NO as the lack of aircon was hard to live without. I love a cool down from being the sun all day. I was really worried about not having it at first, but I was okay in the end.
Outstanding great location
This is our 2nd time staying at this luxury hotel, in all out trips abroad this hotel has been our top rated hotel, and we will always book this hotel, due to the most pleasant welcome, friendly staff, who will do everything to ensure you enjoy your stay here. The reception staff are waiting to help with any issues, nothing is a problem at all, the rooms are very spacious bed room, kitchen bathroom ocean view balcony. Daily room service. Swimming pool gardens and spa room for the guests. All the grounds are incredible well preserved. A must for anyone visiting the area.
Great experience overall.
Starting with the reception staff, really welcoming and polite. The room was big, with lots of storage space and very clean.
Breakfast was good, with lots of fresh options and seats available.
The room was cozy, with good Aircon and quiet. The facilities of the hotel were great, I really enjoyed my time on the gym. Next time need to save some time for the spa experience.
