Hotel Grand Teguise Playa

Stayed from 15th Jan 2026 for 10 days all inclusive. Our room was on 6th floor and sea view. Rooms have been renovated and are comfortable. Hairdryer not very easy to use, towel rail too high for me to reach at 5ft 4. Rooms clean. After staying here in 2019 before the new management takeover when the food and drinks were exceptional we returned for my husbands birthday treat. Food presently not very nice or tasty. Most days the choice is the same as the previous day. One day l had french bread and butter for my lunch and tea time the only thing acceptable. No choice. Chicken on the grill was only available on two occasions, so unless you like pork no other options. We had to eat out most evenings. Drinks, wine not a nice wine in the restaurant. Only local spirits currently offered on AI option. You can only get served two drinks per couple. With a queue at the bar every evening. Not a good experience. Not worth booking the AI option. Restaurants locally very good.Entertainment some good some bad. I was very disappointed on this visit compared to the hotel last time, nothing as good. This was a special birthday present for my husband. Will not visit again. Yours disappointed.

We have just returned from a 11 night stay at this hotel, our second visit having stayed in 2017. The very good points: The view and location. You can't beat it. Stayed in many hotels in CT and quite frankly, this one has the best. The place is spotlessly clean, the staff are very friendly and efficient from reception, bars and restaurants as well as Roland and Bel in the animation team who go above and beyond everyday. Those guys need medals! Rooms are very comfy, probably some are getting tired in places but overall it's exactly what you expect. Pool area is kept immaculate, never a lack of sunbeds and all the facilities surrounding the hotel are in good order. The not so good points: I can see why some don't like the food there are some good things and some simply awful things. If I was to describe it, I'd say it was locked in the late 1980-1995 and needs a massive update on meals, cooking and technique. Good points about the food: you won't starve, the breakfast is well varied and plentiful, as is the salad bars, fresh charcuterie and most of the hot plate meats and fish are cooked well. Even for the most anglicised palate, you'll be ok. Where it falls over is the quality of the ingredients. You can tell it's the cheap of the cheap, the themed nights often aren't that great (with the exception of the food from the orients, the sushi is excellent), but the Italian, Mexican and French themed nights weren't good at all. Cheaply made cannelloni, macaroni, BBQ mash (yuk) and other dishes just didn't appeal. Any form of veg is usually swimming in oil, cooked to a pulp or clearly just tinned stuff reheated. One thing that bemused me that was excellent that they didn't celebrate it enough was their pizzas! A fresh stone baked pizza every lunch and dinner was tucked in the corner that you could miss it every mealtime. If I was this hotel, I'd increase the toppings on offer and open this up more. They truly were delicious. And then there is the à la carte. The food there is largely what you'll get in the main restaurant, just in a more relaxed atmosphere. The menu was from 1985, it was cooked in a style from 1985 and served and tasted the same. I thought it was going to much different but I was disappointed. My advice would be up the quality, focus on the strengths (the paellas are amazing especially the squid ink) do more local cuisines and use what's fresh. For example, calamari is a bag of frozen breadcrumb stuff, when an island nation is teeming with fresh squid, make your own! We had a great time and would return here, but maybe on a B&B or HB basis. If they sorted and improved the food it would hit a 5* review every time.

Have stayed here many many times. It is a lovely hotel and the staff are brilliant. It is one of the best positioned hotels in Costa Teguise. The food is not always to everyone's liking, and it is very hard to cater for all nationalities. I am totally bewildered to see people walking in the hotel with boxed Pizzas when there is lovely stone baked pizzas in the restuarant. I'm not sure why people have said the food is from the 1990's maybe you're expecting chicken nuggets and burgers eaten with your hands. There is always fresh fish and a joint on the show cooking which you can add, vegetables, rice's, salads, potatoes, chips etc, etc. The breakfasts are very varied. My only criticism would be that the food could be hotter. Plenty of sunbeds. Entertainment variable. Thoroughly enjoy our time here.

Amazing Stay at Hotel Grand Teguise! The location is fantastic – ideal for families, solo travelers, girls’ trips, or lads’ holidays. Everything is within walking distance: shops, restaurants, bars, a playground, beaches, and even a pharmacist. The beaches are quiet, clean, and stone-free, with toilets nearby. The hotel is very clean, and the staff are incredible. Teresa and the reception team are welcoming and friendly, and housekeeping is excellent, keeping rooms spotless and providing fresh towels and a complimentary bottle of water. The rooms are comfortable, with balconies offering stunning ocean views and sun loungers. The pool area is great, with plenty of seating and self-service soft drinks, tea, and alcoholic drinks available. Breakfast has a huge variety, and restaurant service is excellent. Lunch and dinner could have more variety, but overall the food was good. Evening entertainment was enjoyable. I highly recommend the camel and volcanic excursion – an unforgettable experience! As a female solo traveler, I felt completely safe walking around. Overall, I had a fantastic stay and highly recommend Hotel Grand Teguise. I can’t wait to return!

This hotel was okay, although if you had been before( as many seem too) or spoke Spanish, you were treated better. All drinks in the evening had to be asked for, as it's wasn't on tap or on the tables, and you had to ask a waiter, who where already busy, clearing tables and relaying them!! No open toe sandals for the men in the evening, you where turned away expected to change, the foot police there every night checking! Notices out saying that no towels put on sunbeds before 9am or they would be removed. This never happened, towels out at 7am, and left all day! This stopped anyone else the chance to use them. No one had returned at 6pm!! It was really only a 3*** not a 4*** needs a lot of work, and was looking tired in places. We upgraded and had exactly the same room, as people who didn't, apart from being on a higher floor. Beach was nothing like the picture, it was a man-made long strip that over the years most of the sand was gone, just lots of rocks left. Shame, as sea was lovely and clear, full of lots of different fish, great for snorkeling! Our first trip to Lanzarote, would return to the island, but not stay here again.
