Hotel Alhambra

This hotel is in all of the guide books, and there are many reasons why. First, La Orotava is a lovely town. Just 10 minutes from Puerto de la Cruz, but with a totally different ambience. PDLC is a high rise hotel tourist venue. When we saw PDLC it confirmed the reason we chose La Orotava for our stay. La Orotava is quiet and peaceful, without feeling like it was created for tourists. No high rise buildings, and a working town for regular people. So, my recommendation to anyone is to stay in La Orotava and take a taxi to PDLC for any dinners or sight seeing there.||The employees of Hotel Alhambra are stellar. We interacted with Jessica most frequently, and she was so pleasant and helpful, but everyone was great. When we arrived in La Orotava there was a festival and many of the streets were blocked and our GPS would not plot an alternative course to bypass. We called the Hotel and one of the guys there walked to where we had parked the car, jumped in with us, and guided us safely to the hotel. ||Breakfast is extensive and wonderful selection is provided. The facility is beautiful, our room and bathroom were huge, and we had a view out of one window of Mt. Teide, and we could see the ocean on the other side of the room. Numerous seating areas are available indoors and outside. Free coffee and tea are available 27/7. ||Here is a tip for those taking a taxi to and from dinner or PDLC. There is a busy taxi stand at the bus station just an easy 5 minute walk away (Estacion de Guaguas). You will find a taxi almost any time there. On the way back the drivers seemed unfamiliar with the hotel location, and so we just had them take us to the bus station, a location familiar to all. Very easy, no confusion, everyone happy!

First time in Orotava and at this hotel. We were made welcome immediately and given lots of local information and guidance.. Our room was superb with great views and exceptional bathroom and extremely comfortable . Breakfast was plentiful with a selection that would suit everyone. The hotel has some parking Nd is very centrally placed. We look forward to returning and would definitely recommend to|others. Our special thanks to both Ricardo and Jessica for making our stay one to remember.

We had an amazing stay at this charming hotel, in a wonderful historical setting. I enjoy staying at such hotels more than at a cookie-cutter modern type hotels.||Everything was great - the room had plenty of storage space and especially the bathroom was huge.||The breakfast was delicious - the freshest food, again in a historical setting!||We took advantage of the sauna that is at this hotel which was very handy after a day's hiking.||The staff was very friendly and helpful especially Ricardo.||We would highly recommend this hotel.

A super cute family business and a beautiful tribute to the artist Otazzo! This hotel has only five rooms in a beautiful and luxurious house. Riccardo and Jessica are caring and attentive. The owner will also present the paintings as if you were having a private museum visit! The location in La Orotava is also ideal to visit all the Island from there. Definitely one of the highlights of our vacation in the Canary Islands!

A really lovely place to stay, in a quiet location close to the amenities, with private on street car parking. The hotel was amazing, a brilliant place to spend a few nights enjoying a quiet well loved hotel, it only has five rooms yet the staff take such great care of you, making sure that you have everything you need. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay we couldn’t ask for more.

What a find! Beautiful place and lovely people. The hotel has deep culture and an abundance of character. From the subtle touches around the hotel to the friendliness of the owners, we had a wonderful time there. We felt at peace - which is the best recommendation I can give! Thank you.

A 400 year old renovated villa, peaceful, with character and charme: The Location is convenient, Room is spacious, bathroom huge with amazing mosaic tiles, 6 guest rooms only(?), crazy ambience , artpieces all over the property and an amazing friendly, welcoming owner. Jordi has given us a short guide on some history of the artist and one of the main paintings, a great explanation on the city’s map and some of the recommended restaurants and places to go. He guided me through smoking area, pool, coffee/tea and other art pieces, and even granted me permission to park in front of his own garage a few meters away from the hotel, in case the dedicated spots are taken ( by non hotel guests in that case). Even without Spanish spoken from my side, we managed to communicate with help of one of the guys working here. The Rooms furniture is well maintained, the bed is comfortable and it is overall a very pleasant and calm night. Apart from ( not for me ) the potentially annoying church bells and the school closeby, I’d give 6/5 for this effort and unique stay. The views from the room “La Palma” are breathtaking, and there is also a pool, a sauna and a jacuzzi available upon request.

This hotel and it's staff deserve 5+ stars. The rooms are spacious and each room provides a spectacular view. You either can enjoy the sunrise or sunset. The bathroom are luxurious in it's dimensions. A specialty for me was the on-demand sauna, which was prepared for a small additional charge. The sauna is very nice and could host up to 4 person's. It also close to the small outdoor area with pool. In front of the hotel are 3 designated parking spots so traveling here was no problem. The streets of the city are narrow so some skills are required. The breakfast is not pompous but satisfies all desires. A special feast is the selfmade cake.
