Gloria Palace Amadores Thalasso & Hotel

Just back from another family holiday at the the lovely Gloria palace . We’ve been many times now and that in itself speaks volumes . We love staying here as it’s perfect for our family holidays . If you want a nice and quiet evening , staying around the hotel is ideal . The evening entertainment is a bit hit and miss . There’s a good games room just off the entertainment room which is good for the kids in the evening too after their mini disco . If you want a more lively night , Puerto Rico is just a short walk or a taxi is a couple of euro . The rooms are spacious and beds are so comfortable . The staff are friendly and helpful . Special mentions to two amazing staff members . Simona in the dining room , she is amazing , so kind and friendly. Loved seeing her every morning. Maria on reception , nothing is ever a problem , so helpful and efficient , a lovely smile to welcome you always . They’re both amazing staff members and made our stay so much better . We’re already looking forward to yet another holiday at the gloria palace 😀

we are just back from our 12th time at this fab hotel, staff are fab . we request our normal floor and there was no problem. only thing that could do with improving the entertainment . its not great. but we still will be back

I have stayed here 3 times in total, once in 2014, once in 2016 and once in 2019. First two times with family and the most recent with my boyfriend and they have all been for 2 weeks. I have NEVER had a bad stay, it’s always been exceptional, the views being a main point, you’ll never get a bad view (unless you’re on the bottom two floors!) I have been on the top 2 floors and also the reception floor, all amazing scenery and the rooms are just incredibly spacious and modern, air con can be a hit and miss though, but me and my boyfriend like a freezing cold room. The food is another main reason we keep coming back, the variety and quality is amazing, will always recommend the fresh burgers at lunch time!! The desserts are outstanding, can’t fault them, there’s basically something for everyone! They also have themed nights every day of the week which is great for trying new things, and there’s a chocolate fountain on some nights too, staff are so friendly in the restaurant especially, so quick and efficient in getting your drinks over to you, 5* experience in there! There’s 2 infinity pools, both the same size, one side has all the activities and music and the other is more quiet and relaxed, we stay on the relaxed side because there’s less noise and the pool is usually quieter too, if you’re going in the summer holidays you’ll have to wake up at about 5:30/6:00am sharp to get a good sunbed but if you go any other time like we did this year, I was waking up at about 7:00/7:30 and there wasn’t many towels out at all, just a heads up :) Entertainment is pretty standard for a hotel, we don’t really stay for it, we sit outside drinking the cocktails and playing cards, cocktails are a MUST if you’re going all inclusive!! The all inclusive drink menu has a wide variety so something for everyone :) Overall this hotel is a 5* experience, couldn’t fault the place at all, and if you’re after something to do outside of the hotel I recommend off and on road buggy driving, was the best experience through Maspalomas, but avoid Aqualand at all costs!!!
