Sol Parque San Antonio

The hotel is much more better than I saw reviews on the internet.
The place is wonderful, really it's located in the middle of an Arboretum. You feel there like not being in the city but in the forest.
The room where I stayed was big and nice. The furniture seems new, well designed. The cleanliness was good, except the bathroom. The bath was old and very dirty. But otherwise with cleanliness there was absolutely no problem.
There was a big terrace with our room. From it we had a nice outlook to the swimming pool, to the trees, and to TEIDE.
The restaurant was good, the meal EXCELLENT. There wer hundreds of kind of meals, cold and warm dishes, fresh-grilled dishes also.
Only the crew seems so sad or angry. There are no a smile to the guest, in reception and restaurant nore.
But generally, I prefer this hotel, I got the expected level for my money.

Our ground floor 3 bed room was the biggest ever, 28 feet long from front door to patio, it seemed newly refurbished as everything looked new. The maids had made a beautiful origami style swan out of a towel & placed it on the bed with flowers. Also a bowl of fruit & bottle of complimentary wine. We were well impressed to say the least altho not every room was like this apparently & some also face the road. Ask for room 112!
Some revuers of this hotel complain of gloomy rooms & this certainly applied to ours as there was a tropical garden front & back with ferns & palms & an ornamental pool with ducks ten feet from the patio! & the ducks sometimes paid us a visit.
Dating from the 1960's this hotel certainly doesn't look its age altho the trees have now mostly soared above rooftop height so if your window or balcony faces trees it will cut out the light but it beats looking at concrete any day & we thought it looked fantastic. Showing anyone photo's taken from the door of our room gives the impression that its in the middle east somewhere rather than Spain.
The Restaurant takes getting used to, Definately avoid the first hour as there will be a big queue of Germans waiting for tables, an hour or so later & you will soon be shown to a table, the waiters work tirelessly to reset a table a soon as its vacated in order to get people seated as soon as possible.
There are a number of pretty cats that live in the garden & these are not ferral but are cared for & fed properly, also caged parrots are wheeled out each day. All in all a very different hotel to others we have been in. Not suitable for children really, more for us oldies as were the majority of guests
