Returned a few days ago from the Volcan with mixed feelings,firstly anyone considering going should be aware of layout and design of this hotel,the site is vast and comprises a maze of alleyways and flights of stairs,and the lifts do not go to all levels. When you enter on arrival you are actually on the 5th floor(street level)but the lifts... More

From the very start of our holiday until the end this has been one of the most relaxing weeks we have had in a hotel and we have been to quite a few 5* hotels, all we can say is this is an excellent hotel with lovely staff and friendly management and we will be back. Glen and Carol

All staff excellent. Rooms are a good size, but decor a little tired. Very clean with towels changed daily. Lovely views from generous size balcony.

Needed a week of sun and chose this hotel and were not disappointed. It had all we wanted on our first trip to Lanzarote. Just one area needs to be better. The food in the great restaurant was really good but needed more variety. Each evening the buffets were supposed to be different but had a sameness about them. We... More

Spent a week at Hotel Volcan in April. We chose a Club Volcan room and were not disappointed. The room had a beautiful sunny balcony which looked out over the pool and the small tower on the headland. Facilities in the room were good, particularly in the bathroom with candles and bath salts as an unusual addition to the normal... More

Excellent facilities, excellent food, excellent staff - in fact everything was excellent! Everything you need is on site but 5 minutes away and you're in the swish Marina area with great shops, restaurants and bars! We were on half board so grabbed great tapas snacks at lunch time to sample the other bars and restaurants. Sunsets were great at Bar/Restaurant... More

From the moment we made the reservation until we left, the hotel and its personnel have exceeded the expectations. It is well located on a marina outside of Playa Blanca (about 20-min. away, walking along the coast--a nice walk, indeed). The rooms are big and comfortable, with a nice sitting area and balcony. There are several swimming pools to choose... More

Unusually, for an overseas hotel there were tea and coffee facilities and water bottles in the fridge. The staff were friendly and helpful.

This is our 3rd year to Playa Blanca and our first stay in Hotel Volcan. The hotel feels relaxed, cool and calm. Rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean. The pool area was clean and well spaced out, there is a snack and drinks bar with a waiter service. Lots of space and sunbeds so no need to fight over either!!!... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
This luxury five star hotel, the Hotel Volcán Lanzarote, has a prime location on the seafront and together with the “Marina Rubicón” yachting harbour it constitutes a tourist resort in the southern part of the island - an area that forms part of the UNESCO’s “World Network of Biosphere Reserves”. The hotel is located just 10 km from the Timanfaya National Park, 900 metres from the picturesque fishing village of Playa Blanca, where you will find shopping centres, bars and restaurants, and just 30 minutes from the International Airport of Arrecife. Andrés Piñeiro, the chief architect of the project, chose a design based on a complex of classical buildings that are a true reflection of the typical architectural style of the island. The design of the hotel is reminiscent of a typical village of Lanzarote, with romantic patios, traditional courtyards and secluded spots, together with the magnificent hotel entrance which is a replica of the Teguise church of “Ntra. Sra. de Guadalupe”. With its unique architecture and the distinguished service of a luxury hotel, the Hotel Volcán Lanzarote is an icon within the high end segment of the tourism sector. ... more   less
