Hotel Marquesa (Puerto de la Cruz, Spain)

Marquesa is located right in the centre of Puerto de la Cruz, opening up a ton of entertainment and sightseeing adventures for you and your travel companions. Just about everything is within walking distance.

From breakfast to dinner, you won’t be disappointed with the foods served up here. The hotel cooks traditional Spanish cuisine, with some classical and modern options thrown into the mix to suite everyone’s liking.

You won’t just find one lovely pool here – you will get two. Whether one pool is too crowded or you want to follow the sun, you get to pick and choose where you spend your days lounging.

Because the days can get pretty hot in Spain, you want a hotel room with excellent air conditioning. The systems here, however, don’t seem to be very reliable, and may be out of commission during your stay.

You may have to ask housekeeping to make a second trip back with some fresh towels. They don’t always replace towels, even if they are on the floor, which can be frustrating.

Some of the mattresses in this hotel need to be desperately replaced. A few of them have springs popping out, which dig into your back and disrupt your sleep.
