We haver just returned from a weeks all inclusive holiday at the Barcelo. There are many good points - the hotel is just let down a little by its lack of customer service. The location is a little isolated - you can use the free shuttle service to town though. The hotel... more

I went there with my family, we've been to many hotels that have 4*, but it was never that good. It's clean, really good looking and the food is brilliant. I never felt this way about any hotel, and i realllly want to come back some time. Once I got out of the Hotel, i... more

Wish we could of stayed longer.
My family and I have just returned from a very relaxing and enjoyable week at the Barcelo. The hotel, although extremely large was nicely positioned just outside of the busy town of Costa Teguise. The facilities and entertainment programs day and night were brilliant, something for all ages, and if like myself you prefer to just quietly lie in the sun that's fine as nobody harasses you. We originally booked on a half board basis but soon became curious of the little blue wrist bands everyone seemed to be wearing and after enquiring found that for 16euros a day 8 for children we could upgrade to fully inclusive allowing us to eat and drink as much as we possibly could (which believe me we did)!! We hired a reasonably priced jeep for two days from a very nice man located in the hotel foyer which was great, tour operator trips are not our cup of tea and too expensive for my liking! The sites to the north and south of the island were spectacular and well worth the visit. To end my review I would say the hotel staff were the ones that made our stay, their highly accommodating, dedicated professional manner really made our holiday an extremely memorable experience.
Fantastic holiday
My husband, daughter (5yrs) and I have recently returned from a fantastic 2 week stay at this hotel. Earlier reviews had made us very nervous, as this hotel had been recommended by friends and previous guests, (I am a travel agent), but we shouldn't have worried. The hotel, food, acommodation and staff were excellent. The mini-club, which my daughter couldn't wait to go to each day, was the best I've ever seen. It had it's own splash pool, little cinema, activity desks and a soft play area. The entertainment team worked really hard, providing activities for all throughout the day and evening. I would definitely stay at this hotel again and have no hesitation in recommending it to all my friends and future clients.
fantastic holiday
My wife, son (12) and I have just arrived back from spending a fantastic week at the Barecelo Hotel. Room was large with a lounge area where my son slept, and a seperate twin bedded room for my wife and I. Both rooms were air conditioned and all you would expect from a 4* Hotel. Food was very varied, but if your taste is Chicken Nuggets and chips then this is not the hotel for you. Two critisms of the Resturant were that the food was not always as hot as it could be (though there was a microwave provided should this be a problem) and the air coditioning in all public rooms was not as good as it could be. Just off the main resturant through double sliding doors is a seperate eating area, and this was always cool. Daytime entertainment was brilliant (we hardly saw our Son!!!!!!), and evening entertainment was adaquate. Hotel staff were brilliant, amenities more than satisfactory, 5 pools, plenty of sunloungers (no need to reserve them at 6 am !!!!!!! Position of Hotel is away from it all but as there is so much to do this was not a problem for us. We went on a South Island tour with Lastminute tours for 18 euro's as apposed to the 58 the tour operator wanted, it was brilliant and I can highly recommend the company. We didnt find out about them until given a brochure at Teguise Market. All in all a fabulous holiday which I have no hesitation in recomending.
Fabulous Holiday
My wife and I have just enjoyed a superb holiday here. Contrary to some reviewers we found the food to be of a high standard and varied. The staff were friendly and helpful. Our only real criticism is the lack of signage to the lifts. We found them on our last day. The hotel did have some minor rebuilding work going on though it did not spoil our holiday. The hotel rooms are mainly suites with full air conditioning. As the temperature reached 47C during our stay this was most welcome. The hotel is a good distance out of the resort of Costa Teguise but Barcelo provide a free bus shuttle every 30 minutes during the day. Outside that period it is only 2.5 euros by taxi. The airport was close by but we did not suffer from aircraft noise. Facilities are provided for all ages and good evening entertainment too.
Honeymoon from hell!!
Was glad to return from our honeymoon at the barcelo. the food was substandard - cold, unappetising and extremely repetitive (also resulted in illness). check with travel agents before you leave as we had no prior knowledge of the fact that at the moment the restaurant is closed, the pool bar is being demolished and also the gym and sauna are undergoing refurbishment. the staff must be commended for putting up with the constant noise, drilling and banging, that can be heard in most places on the site. we feel our honeymoon has been ruined and would not re-visit or recommend this hotel to anyone !!! as far as lanzarote itself goes we would return. the external entertainment was excellent. in particular the rancho texas, both during the night and day, the catamaran trips are worth a go and also the grand tour of the island that most travel operators offer was good, you are a long time on coach but it really is the only way to see the highlights if you dont want to hire a car.
Lovely Hotel
We just returned from Barcelo on 23rd May and had a fantastic holiday, the only critical thing about the hotel is the food, it's okay and you can eat it but it is very repetitive and sometimes cold, a gentleman earlier said to ask for block 5 facing the pool which we did and the suite was perfect, dont pay all inclusive before you travel as its 18 euros per person per night which works out around £25, so if you like a few drinks its worth the money, they are over generous with the drinks and you can get drunk rather quick. the staff could not have been nicer, never had to wait for a drink and always with a smile. we hired a car for 3 days from the hotel for 74 euros and travelled all over the island, if you like peace and quiet and to see Lanzarote at its best travel North to Orzola and just before you arrive on the right hand side of the road is a beautiful beach where you can walk in the sea for about 2 football pitches at knee length and its a lovely turquose colour then head into town for a truly mouthwatering meal overlooking the sea. Must warn you about the pool bar being demolished at the moment and a fair bit of noise during the day but if you go to the pool near the tennis courts you cant hear a thing. if you need a gymn on holiday then go elsewhere as this is also under construction along with the sauna. we have thought long and hard to come up with a true rating for this hotel and although everyones views differ we think it is a very good 3 star and worth the money. the hotel and pool area is spotless and we would go again.
Nice Hotel {Shame about the food!!!!! }
Have just returned from the Barcelo in Costa Teguise. There is a refurbishment underway at the moment, which means that the restaurant is closed and all food is being served in the conference centre. This is probably the reason that the food was the worst that I have experienced in any 4 star hotel that I have stayed in during 40 years of travel. The hot food was cold and served buffet style in greasy trays with the appearance of having been cooked elsewhere and transported to the makeshift restaurant. Not a hotel that I could recommend at the moment.
not a 4 star !!!!!!!
On arrival at hotel we were hoffiried because it is located next to an industrial estate.To our surprise when we went into the hotel it is beautifully decorated throughout.staff are really helpful and friendly.Because of so many mixed nationalities playing bingo and the quiz nights are a nightmare.repeating a number in 5 or so languages takes so long and there didnt seem to be a very good atmosphere in the hotel because guests didnt really get into conversation with each other,probably because we wouldnt have understood each other!The most disappointing part of the holiday was the food.It was absolutely horrible every evening.We have stayed at 4 star hotels in the past and have been so pleased with the food.This food was of a very poor standard and it should definately marked down because of this.All in all we are glad we went to lanzarote because its a great island for sightseeing and we hired a car from the car hire company that operates at the hotel.good value for money too.plenty to see and do on lanzarote but if you dont drive or get away from this hotel during your stay,then you will get so fed up by the end of your holiday.cannot recommend this holiday because even our 6 year old daughter said she wouldnt like to go back to barcelo lanzarote and thats a first for her to say that.
Recommended for quiet holidays
Arrived to an impressive hotel and the suite we had was roomy and very clean. The restaurant catered with every food type and it was all very good, as my waistline will confirm! Try not to eat after 8.30pm as there was a long wait (30 mins). Snack bar by the pool was not so good as it was very greasy. We went AI and sometimes we had to wait for fee paying people to get their drinks first. Though we found if we chatted to a couple of waiters when it was quiet they served us first when they were busy. Very quiet area and quite a distance from a decent beach and dont believe the reps when they say the buses run every 15 minutes we waited 50 mins for a bus to the market. Entertainment was good but bar is packed so arrive well before the start for a good spot. Only downside was that they'd had a sand storm from Africa a week earlier and the cockroaches had come out in force but it was only for a couple of hours and they were VERY quick to remove them. Apart from that very good hotel and recommended.
fantastic holiday
August 2005. I have just returned from Barcelo Lanzarote and have had the most fantasic holiday. It is lovely for families with children. The hotel was fabulous, all the staff were extremely helpful, friendly and always had a smile. I have met some really nice people from all over Europe, everyone is so friendly. The entertainment throughout the day was really good, there is so much to do. The food was really tasty with lots of different varieties, even though the hotel was full to capacity it never seemed that busy around the pool area. It is definately worth a visit, there is building work going on just across the road but I promise you it doesn't affect you in the least. Lanzarote on the whole is a lovely island with lots of nice places to visit you will enjoy every minute!
