Your guide to the best luxury hotels in Gran Canaria
Paradisus Gran Canaria · San AgustínFor this guide we have gathered the best hotels in Gran Canaria: two 5-star hotels, from 241 euros a night.At no extra cost: booking through suitespot costs the same as booking direct with the hotel – the benefits come on top, free of charge.
Two luxury hotels in Gran Canaria – and how to choose
The two luxury hotels in Gran Canaria cost 241 € and 378 € a night – 137 euros apart.
Seaside Palm Beach Gran Canaria · MaspalomasAt both hotels the suitespot benefits apply from the first night.
And one of the two asks you a question you rarely get asked on an island.
Our travel advisors’ insider tip
Anyone travelling to a Canary island is booking the sea. Practically every hotel in the south of the island advertises it, and the only question is usually how much you pay for it.
At the Paradisus Gran Canaria from 378 € the case is different. Of its 36 categories, 18 face the water and three the mountains.
That sounds like a side issue and in Gran Canaria it is not. The island has a mountain range inland that rises higher than most beach holidaymakers assume – and three categories of this hotel turn deliberately towards it.
Our advice: if you have been to the Canaries before and know the sea, ask us about those three specifically. They are by far the scarcer commodity – and in the hot months the cooler side of the hotel.
Where to stay in Gran Canaria: Maspalomas or San Agustín
The two best hotels in Gran Canaria both lie in the south, but not in the same place.
In San Agustín stands the Paradisus Gran Canaria from 378 € with 36 categories – by far the wider choice. Our recommendation for anyone who wants to choose.
In Maspalomas stands the Seaside Palm Beach Gran Canaria from 241 € with 6 categories, among them three suites. Maspalomas is the place with the dunes – a piece of landscape you would otherwise have to travel a long way for. Our recommendation for anyone who wants an overview rather than a choice.
Our travel advisors know the routes between the two addresses and work them out for your particular occasion.
42 categories: the best hotels in Gran Canaria from the inside
Together the best hotels in Gran Canaria offer 42 categories.
At the Seaside Palm Beach Gran Canaria the six categories measure 21, 21, 30, 33, 35 and 35 square metres.
At the Paradisus Gran Canaria the sizes range from 26 to 74 square metres; our travel advisors confirm the exact size before you book.
Tell us the square metre figure you do not want to go below.
What a night at a luxury hotel in Gran Canaria costs
A night at a 5-star hotel in Gran Canaria costs 241 € or 378 €.
| Luxury hotel | From | suitespot benefits from |
|---|---|---|
| Seaside Palm Beach Gran Canaria | 241 € | 1st night |
| Paradisus Gran Canaria | 378 € | 1st night |
How long to stay: seven nights. Gran Canaria carries two climate zones: the south is dry, the north green, and between them stands a mountain range that needs a day of its own – a week here is not an indulgence but the time the island asks for.
At both hotels the suitespot benefits apply from the first night.
When it is at its best: from November to March, when it is 20 degrees here and not in central Europe. Our recommendation for anyone wanting to sidestep winter.
From May to June the water is already warm and the beaches are not yet. Our recommendation for anyone who wants room.
And whatever the date: you get the suitespot benefits in the quietest week of the year exactly as in the busiest.
Breakfast, champagne and exclusive services at a 5-star hotel
At both hotels breakfast for two people is included.
