We just returned from a one week holiday from the Escorial and it is pretty much what the reviews have said. In a nut shell it is a three star hotel with a five star spa, hence the four out of five rating. Pros are:- - I'm sure you have heard numerous times about the spa and it's not an... more

We've been to Playa del Ingles twice before (western end: Sol Barbacan & Rui Parque Cristobal) and decided to stay in this eastern end. It turned out to be the quieter end for us (we like the vibrancy of the Yumbo area (not Gay)). It is near to the Irish centre but that seemed to be very dead! We chose... more

We had originally booked a week at the Riu Waikiki then realised the Escorial was rated similarly on TA, but at a saving of over 250 € for the room for the week, so we switched and were glad we did. As for the hotel, I can't add to the previous review really, as it could have been written by... more
