Just returned from a week in the Gloria Palace hotel Amadores in Gran Canaria. On arrival we were very impressed with the hotel it looks really good very upmarket.

Staff were very friendly and helpful and we were greeted and welcomed with a glass of wine.

The room was lovely very clean and very spacious, cleaned every day, with clean towels daily. The views from the room were stunning and the location of the hotel was perfect 10 minutes one way to peurto rico or 10 minutes the other direction to amadores beach, lovely walk along the sea wall.

The food at the hotel was plentiful and the dining room was never short of clean tables. Didn't think much of the entertainment but that wasn't top of our list we would rather get out and about in the evening.

The two swimming pools are lovely never short of sunbeds you could get one any time of day. The holiday overall was excellent and yes would definately go back again no hesitation.

Just returned from a fabulous week in Gran Canaria staying at the Gloria Palace, Amadores.

Excellent hotel, rooms cleaned every day, fantastic view from the balcony overlooking the sea and the enjoyed amazing sunsets every night.

We just wanted a relaxing holiday and this we got. Whilst the food was a bit bland there was always something that took our fancy. The location is great, the staff were friendly and helpful.

Entertainment OK but if you wanted something a bit livelier you could always go to Puerto Rico (ten minutes walk away).

We hope to visit this hotel again in September.

The food in the hotel is excellent and all the bedrooms are really spacious. We had a lovely pool and sea view.

There are two swimming pools one quiet and one a bit lively with activities and so on!

The waiters were excellent and always served us but we paid them cash I think there a little bit less enthusiastic about serving you if your all inclusive because they don't get tipped! You are able to charge all drinks and snacks to your room bill which you pay at the end of your stay! but beware it's hard to keep track of how much your spending!

Entertainment was ok but we never really watched it at night but the animation team that did all the day time activities were fantastic they made our holiday and work so hard thanks to Niko, Bianca, Joseph,and Manuela especially!

Hotel Gloria Palace Amadores.

Lovely hotel with great views over the ocean actually better if you get a room with pool and sea view - rooms are really spacious and clean.

The only problem we had was getting served at the bar in evening and sometimes snack bar at lunch we were not sure if it was because we were all inclusive but you could wait up to half an hour to be served by waiter.

The location of the hotel is very good but if you want to go up the hill use a taxi (cardiac hill).

We found the waiters in dining room and in the small bar near reception very pleasant

Overall a very enjoyable holiday and would go back to this hotel.

This report is for the Gloria Palace,Amadores.

The hotel very much deserved it's 4 Star rating. The public areas were all exceptionally clean and well maintained,and there was a good attention to detail to maintain those standards.

The location was fantastic,with great sea views and mid-way between Puerto Rico and Amadores beaches.The staff were the most friendly I have ever come across and the food was excellent.The only down-side to the buffet was that it might not suit someone with a purely English taste in food,and,although there was plenty of choice,I have seen bigger buffets at other hotels.

The entertainment was on a par with most other foreign hotels(mostly poor,but with the odd exception).

We would recommend this hotel to anyone,and would definately return with no qualms.

Hotel rooms and facilities first class, but oh dear, the eating experience was quite the reverse. We were booked half board but after the first evening meal we decided to eat out at some of the excellent restaurants within a 10/15 minute stroll.

If you like average food, you might enjoy the hotel buffet. If you like practising a rugby scrum (comprising largely natives of a non rugby playing country)to get your food you will enjoy it even more. And if you like sitting cheek by jowel with the next table you will really enjoy it. Breakfast can be a bit of a scrum as well and if you like tea made with boiling (as opposed to hot) water, just forget it. Pity, really, because it is a really nice hotel in a good location and with plenty of space for the residents.

Puerto Rico and Amadores are about a 5 and 10 minute walk respectively in different directions along a very safe promenade style walkway and the hotel has a lift that takes you right down to the walkway.

We stayed in this fantastic, newly built hotel. Everything about the hotel from the food to the staff was excellent with the exception of the entertainment which would have suited retired people.

The view and the sunsets were out of this world, and there was a lift from the cliff top hotel down to the coastal path.

The rooms were air conditioned and controlled by thermostat.
All food was freshly cooked in front of you witha choice of at least 20 main courses a night.

We went in February and the temperature was 28c all week. It is a short walk 10 minutes to Porto Rico centre.

You will not find a better hotel on the island. We cannot wait to return.
