Advantages: FANTASTIC LOCATION AND FRIENDLY STAFF Disadvantages: COULD BE CLOSER TO BEACH
...HAVE BEEN TO THIS HOTEL TWICE, AND ABOUT 6 TIMES WITH OTHER BARCELO HOTELS IN THE CANARIES, CANNOT FAULT THE HOTEL GROUP. ON ONE VISIT TWINS WERE ONLY 18 MONTHS OLD, STAFF BENT OVER BACKWARDS TO HELP, EVEN WITH FEEDING!

The holiday was booked through Portland Direct at the not too low amount of £703 for one week’s bed and breakfast, including airport/hotel transfers (although I always drive back to the airport), meals on the plane and insurance. I was therefore extremely peeved to discover that the same holiday...

The MGM Grand, guarded by a 45-foot-tall bronze lion statue has 5,005 rooms and used to be the largest hotel in the world, a claim recently stolen by the Ambassador City Jomtien... more
I recently spent three nights in the Albus Grand. On arrival we were upgraded to a superior room at no extra cost. I asked the receptionist why she had upgraded us .. she said she wanted us to have a happy day. That was a great start to a wonderful... more
