"Great hotel at the end of Sardinero beach. close to the path that leads round to the cove beaches next to the golf course. closest bus routes are the 1, 2, and 4 lines from the town centre... unfortunately no direct bus from the airport so you need to change at the bus station. I had a sea view balcony room which was superb, with a big balcony and huge bed. even saw a sea rescue drill... see images. air con is efficient and quiet and shower is a huge walk in rain shower with plenty of hot water. black out curtains are good as the sun rises in front of the hotel which is east facing. the room I had included a fridge and a separate hallway which is unusual for a hotel.. but great for keeping out the noise. the TV is not smart so I couldn't access my YouTube channel.. they should fix this as most people have media channels accounts nowadays. breakfast is OK but no egg bar and only scrambled eggs available which after two days I was sick of. the hotel has a fancy bar and restaurant but I eat out... there is a small Italian restaurant nearby and two good supermarkets for convenience. I didn't use the infinity pool but it looked decent, albeit small. I paid a lot for the deluxe room (€200 a night!), so I can't say it was excellent value for money due to the high price paid. but overall, I enjoyed the accommodation and special mention to the receptionist Jeimy who was super nice."
