Hello we were staying at hotel in 18-09-07 till 24-09-07
2adults 1 child.
Weenjoy a lot the hotel is very nice, clean the bedrooms are beautiful and the batheroom is very modern like the exterior area.
The buffet is very good with variety and quality food.I am affraid that when the hotel is full we have to wait for a table at the restaurant.
The hotel have a sugestive animation,a young group very syphatique a work pleasure.
I recommend this hotel to my family and friends.
Maybe we come again for the nex year.

I stay at this hotel in the last week of June with my family. we were 4 adults and 1 children.
I think they have a good team with animation, but the crew of the hotel are very slow.
the hotel looks to be a little old!! should be refurbished!!
can check my blog at: [--]
the thing i most like around is the fact of the hotel have a lots of young people!! i have been near this hotel other times and the guests were much older!!
think also the food was very nice at the buffet!

  • Disliked — the room had bugs!!

“Lovely Hotel, shame about the rude restaurant staff”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 April 2007

people found this review helpful

We have just returned from a week at Gran Playa, the hotel is lovely, very clean nice rooms, although we did upgrade when we got there. The hotel seems to cater mostly for the French, they don't seem to like the English tourist. Reception staff are friendly and helpful, the restaurant staff are rude miserable and unfriendly. Good selection of food but the hot food is luke warm if you're lucky. There are no shops close by, you really do need a car. We won't be staying there again.

  • Liked — The room

First of all I would like to thank you for your comments, as the best way we have to improve our service quality is through them. At the same time, I deeply regret not having achieved your satisfaction during the most appreciated days of the year: YOUR HOLIDAYS.

Let me explain that, although our guests are from different countries, we always try to get everybody’s satisfaction and the staff is constantly trained in that way.

I am very sorry for your comments about the restaurant service. All our training is led to improve the staff kindness to our guests, as this is the most important aspect for us. We work very hard daily to achieve it and we invest a lot of time and money organizing training courses during 6 months at least all year long. Every employee has a minimum of 24 compulsory training hours a year. Apart from that, the staff can attend a great number of free choice specializing courses. For that reason, I would be very grateful if you would be so kind as to contact us to study your comment in depth and to be able to take the appropriate correcting measures, so that this situation never happens again.

Regarding your comment on food temperature, let me tell you that we are very concern about serving food with the correct temperature. But there are different appreciations between Mediterranean and Central European nationalities, as in the South the meal is eaten not so hot. We make a great effort explaining our staff this important difference in order to satisfy our guests’ necessities
