    Fantastic hotel

    We decided to upgrade our usual self catering holiday in Gran Canaria. Picked this hotel and it exceeded or expectations in every way. Check in was fast curtious and we got our room early. We had upgraded the room and it showed. Well appointed kitchen with everything you needed. Bright modern very clean bathroom. Huge super comfortable bed with plenty of storage around the apartment for your clothes. The balcony was massive with 2 sun beds a sofa and a small dining table. Loved the awning for the balcony to take the sun off of you (also loved the fact that the awning was remote controlled from a wall switch next to the central air conditioning controls). Only minor niggle is a information pack for guests on how everything works would have been handy. We had a free al a carte dinner in the hotels restaurant and again we could not fault the service or the food in any way. We cruise for a lot of our holidays and the service and the food here was better than we have received on more than one of our cruises. We will be back ( hopefully) when things settle down again.
    Nice and clean

    My 3rd visit

    Returned to the Sol Barbacan for the third time. There is everything to love about this hotel. The rooms are spacious, the balconies even more so (the largest, most equipped balcony I have ever come across). The staff are personable and friendly (and even remembered me) There are 3 pools to choose from and in my experience they are never full so you have plenty of space. My only advice to future travellers: do not use the hotels recommended medical centre, they are charlatans and cowboys. I recommend the EuroNordic Medical centre which is also closer and much more professional (thank you to the person who suggested this!). I hope to book again this year but will do so when I know I will be able to travel for certain.
    Heaven on earth

    The friendliness of the reception staff always excellent. The rooms are spotlessly clean and therapeutic, love the balcony so spacious. Location great for the Yumbo and entertainment. Great new gym also. Love everything about the Barbacan.
    Wonderful location

    Had a great stay and would love to come back someday. Breakfast was good and like others have stated your are walking distance to a lot of different places to eat and the beach. Only hassle was parking as there was a lot of construction going on at the time I visited.
