Hotel Riu Gran Canaria

"Absolutely fantastic place .went on my own for 6 nights .loved the food the area the local beaches .the promenade you could walk along via the back gate. Didn't have a conversation with any apart from saying " thank you " and " good morning " and ordering my coffee. I loved it . Lovely spacious clean room . I definitely want to go back . It was sad to see that the adult area was covered in towels very early in the morning but that was fine for me as I just went to the large sun deck above the bar there where it wasnt ever very busy lots of space with only a few beds overlooking the sea . Beautiful area to relax and enjoy the sun"

"This was our 4th visit to this beautiful hotel and can’t wait to return. I found all the staff very helpful, friendly and efficient especially Amanda at the Sunset bar who even knew our orders every morning and greeted us with such a welcoming smile, making us feel very valued. Thank you! Our room had lovely views, and our request for same room as last year was honoured and very much appreciated! The housekeeping staff were top notch and room was kept spotlessly clean with fresh linen and towels provided. I do apologise as no tip was left for all the hard work, as on the last morning our safe jammed and left us panicked and rushing about and totally slipped our minds. On our return this won’t be forgotten. Can I just add after calling reception at 6.15 in the morning regarding the safe problem we were told someone would come up to the room just after 7.10 to sort for us as the guy didn’t start his work until then. Once again, as always we were met with efficiency and in fact the guy was in our room before 7 and sorted our problem without any need to panic over missing our bus pick up. We enjoyed once again trying out the different restaurants booked on our App but our favourite was the Atlantico for lunch with amazing views. Finally a big thank you to Tino for all your help again with our booking and our requests. Lovely to catch up with you again…. Until next time!"

"We therefore returned to the Riu Gran Canaria a year later. Very well welcomed and our room request sent a few days ago was able to be honored. Thanks to the hotel. Room 48 on the ground floor, garden side, pleasant and modern, always superbly maintained by the housekeeping staff. Meals, varied where everyone can find something they like. A smiling and friendly staff on the whole. Plenty of lounge chairs and umbrellas around the pools and tucked away. What more could you ask for for a stay in the sun. A very well-located hotel for families with children!"
