Seaside Grand Hotel Residencia - Gran Lujo

Geri dönüş konuğu olarak bu otelde iki harika hafta geçirdim. Otel olağanüstü, servis seviyeleri çok yüksek, her gece yemekler lezzetli ve havuz güzel. Bir gün spa havuzunda su aerobiği yaptım, çok keyifliydi ama çoğunlukla rahatlamaktan başka bir şey yapmadım.

I’ve had this hotel in my radar for a while, it looked classy and elegant. Wanting to escape the dire British summer we booked a quick week here, and I’m happy to report it was as good as I’d hoped. We just had a lead in room on the ground floor which was perfect for our needs (we looked at the upgrades available and didn’t think they were worth the extra). The hotel is spotless, the staff professional and friendly. Food terrific, even bbq night (I hate buffets so was surprised to find that I enjoyed what was on offer! Btw we had lobster one night - heavenly). The clientele is of the mature variety, we are both 60 and felt ‘young’! There’s lots of places to eat nearby, and supermarkets too. If you’re planning a hotel only stay, enjoy great food, don’t mind the rather cheek by jowl pool side, this hotel ticks all your boxes.

Our first visit to the Grand and was most enjoyable. Excellent service from all staff, restaurants ,reception, poolside and housekeepers,,,,all very professional and attentive. Rooms are comfortable and classic in style. During our stay the vast majority of guests were a mature age group, even elderly in many cases with mostly German and British guests and a smattering of other nationalities. Breakfast was good and dinner top quality, dinner courses were small but tasty and well presented. Twice a week a buffet barbeque is available for dinner which we preferred as there were more options to try and delicious desserts a plenty! We particularly liked the tranquil peaceful vibe around the place helped by a no mobile phone policy in the main restaurant, pool area etc which was mostly observed and respected by vast majority of guests apart from the odd entitled pompous individuals who felt the rules didn't apply to them and they could do whatever they wanted. We did witness on a few occasions rude and entitled behaviour from several guests toward the service staff at the hotel, many guests that stay here are clearly well heeled and wealthy but act with a lack of respect and some showed little courtesy toward the people that were trying so hard to look after them,I found quite a few guests to be aloof and delusions of grandeur sprang to mind. Overall a great choice for luxury stay in Gran Canaria, highly recommended.
