Hotel Parque La Paz

We always book to stay in the Safari centre area twice a year. First time staying here and it’s definitely our favourite. Have already booked to stay again Easter. Great location and very clean and modern. We stayed in a 2 bedroom duplex apartment overlooking the pool. There were always sunbeds available around the pool and no one was reserving them with towels like other complex’s. The alcohol drinks were cheaply priced at the pool side bar but the soft drinks were 4 euro so we brought cans from local supermarket and kept them in the fridge on the room and fetched them when needed. Hotel is available with Jet 2 but we found it cheaper to book hotel direct and book fights separately.

Our room was lovely and clean, super spacious too! We were on the ground floor overlooking the pool area so we had a large balcony and sunbeds of our own which was perfect for us! Food isn’t great - not much choice but you get what you pay for. We did spend a lot of time out of the hotel although we booked AI but always plenty of sunbeds to use after being out all day, and overall a very positive experience. Downside is there is no air con in the rooms, just a ceiling fan so we were often very hot in the room!

We came to the hotel as a family of 2 at the end of October and received certain impressions regarding our holiday here. Some moments amazed us at how advanced this hotel is, and some other disappointed. I`m gonna start from counting good things: Great staff who works in here. I did not see anybody more friendly, helpful and understanding like people who work here. We did not feel any discomfort while speaking to anybody here, and it was lovely experience. The rooms were very good in terms of space, interior and facilities. We had everything to cook on our own, including cutlery and plates, even though we mostly ate in a restaurants. Also, we had a big comfortable balcony. The food was amazing, cooks and serving personnel are very friendly and tried to fulfil all our wishes. There was a lot of everything, and even the picky ones will find something their own. Every day is special in terms of cooking, there were different dishes, but at the same time the balance was kept - nothing was switched rapidly. The location of this hotel is very decent - everything can be reached within 5-7 minutes walk from the hotel: shopping centers, beaches, shops, grocery stores, parks. But some things we dislikes a lot. Very old and dirty towels, they used to be white someday, but now they are grey and had to be thrown away to bin a long time ago. Sometimes we were given dirty towels that had stains and we had to ask to change them once again. The same way, pillows were horrible and had to have its own place next to towels in the bin. For 4 stars it would be better to have other matrasses and bedding. It was very uncomfortable to sleep. There are a lot of questions to housekeeping, because it is hard to rate properly their cleaning in the hotel. We understand that Tenerife is subtropic island, and there are a lot of local cockroaches, but it does not mean they can`t be NOT removed during few days from laying next to elevator, which is close to the entrance of main restaurant. And it certainly does not mean that they can`t be dealt in any way - I saw a live cockroach running on the floor at the pool restaurant at lunch. Room cleaning was bad, especially toilet and shower, but somewhy the housepeeking considered it was a great idea to move our belongings in bathroom to other shelfs from sink. We did not understand whether was the bedding changed during our time of stay (6 nights), and if it was, it means that bedding is disastrous because it`s the same as dirty one. There were bathroom stains, and it looks very bad. Also, live bug got from canalization to our shower. We had all-inclusive, and still were asked to pay for the safe if we want to use it (50 euros for 6 nights). From personal opinion, I did not like that shower did not have door to be closed, it is opened-type, but it`s more somebody`s personal preference than some disadvantage. Lunch is not that diverse unlike breakfast or dinner because it is spent in pool restaurant, which is smaller than the main
