Hotel El Tope

“The service was top tier. Lovely people with a really nice view of the mountains and the sea from our balcony.”

“I was very happy to be designated a room on the 5th floor, with a balcony facing EL TEIDE, the snow-capped highest mountain of Spain. During the early morning hours, you had a clear view of the mountain from the balcony---during the time of my stay between the year-end holidays---and, as the day was progressing, EL TEIDE became increasingly enshrouded by clouds, so that I would recommend an early-morning visitation of the mountain, particularly if you are wishing to take the cable car ride up to the mountain, from the base station at about 2250 m above sea level. The hotel rooms were sufficiently large and nicely furnished, with all essential amenities demanded by the modern traveler, and I liked the fact that there are parking spaces available for hotel guests in close proximity to the hotel entrance. Very few of the Puerto de la Cruz hotels that are close to the shoreline are offering their own secure parking spaces. Additionally I liked the fact that a buffet-style breakfast and dinner was included in my very reasonable room rate, and the staff of the restaurant made every effort possible---during the Covid-19 restrictions imposed by the local Spanish government---to select on behalf of all guests all of the food items chosen by each one of the guests. I had proposed to ease the work load and pressure on the restaurant staff, by handing out transparent and thin PE plastic gloves to each guest, so that the guests could serve themselves, while still being in compliance with the local Covid-19 hygiene rules. I have a sentimental attachment to Puerto de la Cruz, as I was---a little over five decades ago---among the first international tourists to travel to this first Tenerife location at which a touristic infrastructure was rapidly developed over the course of a short interval of time. And I will definitely book this hotel again, when traveling to Tenerife.”

“All the staff are incredibly friendly. They are the biggest asset of the hotel. Room was spacious, huge corner balcony with tremendous views. Breakfast was good. Free parking is a bonus in this town”

“El desayuno muy bueno y variado. Se respira tranquilidad y las vistas son muy bonitas. Además tiene parking y es de fácil acceso. Muy buen precio.”

“Right now very inexpensive for this great hotel. Huge balcony, huge room, huge mirrors. Great location on top of hill in centre of everything. Very clean and anonymous with great facilities.”
