Gloria Palace Royal Hotel & Spa

Just returned from another spectacular week in the Gloria Palace Royal it really is the staff that make this hotel so outstanding especially Miguel Lopez who is a manager in the hotels restaurant he really is a credit to this hotel his professionalism and attention to detail is simply incredible. Cristobal and Jose Luis are the nicest guys you will ever meet and they make the most delicious cocktails & sangria. In fact all the staff are lovely it's just those guys really stood out to me. Evelyn, Lori, Nicholas, Brian, Luis, Jose Carlos, Isadora and Anastacia are all extremely hardworking. It really is a wonderful hotel with extremely welcoming staff and I look forward to going back again next month for another unforgettable week.

Overall we had a lovely holiday in the Gloria Royal,generally great staff, great food and drinks and excellent facilities.The view of Amadores beach from our room in Block 2 was amazing. The irritations were that although arriving at 22.30hrs and paying for 10 days all inclusive the actuality is that all inclusive ends at noon so, although we were provided with a lunch voucher, we only received 9.5 days value. In this day and age almost every AI deal extends until departure and it's time this hotel fell in line with the opposition. The other idiosyncrasy was that instead of a kettle in the room there was a coffee filter machine but no filter coffee or filters and this had to be used as a makeshift kettle. These things would not stop us from returning as this hotel has a lot going for it but they should be looked at seriously by management. A response from management answering these specifics instead of the usual bland statements would be appreciated.

We had our honeymoon there and in front our room was the beautiful Playa de Amadores. The hotel ist big and and on a very good place. We could easily go to the beach, but had also nice pool outside with very beautiful view. Actually there are two pools outside and in the evening it's also very romantic with the lights. I was impressed from the service in the restaurant. There was a guy named Miguel Degusta, who was singing all the time and made good service! We were also impressed from Felix with his wine recommendations and the lovely Gisel! They were really kind and sometimes made our moments there. The cooks did there job perfect and everithing was very delicious. Our critic on this point is, that sometimes it was pretty noisy and the waiters were running, what was a bit annoying. The rooms were big and they were cleaned every day almost on the same time. It was a bit annoying that our room card was not working sometimes and we should go to the reception, but maybe we are fault about this, because our phones and cards were in one bag. The hotel has also good entertainment and every 2 hours there is something you can go to. There was also ping pong but sadly the paddles were broken and the balls were all over the place. There was also a gym, that you can use. But I would recommend some renovation there. Outside you can do nice calisthenics but inside, the long bar was a bit rosty and the air conditioning was not working so good. We would recommend this hotel! It made our honeymoon sweet and we didn't have to think about food or entertainment there. We would come here again.
