My husband and I visited the Sol Costa Atlantis Hotel for a week in April 2024. We were very much looking forward to our stay at this particular hotel as having viewed it online, we thought it looked rather nice. Our arrival at the hotel was quite late due to having experienced a flight delay therefore, we were feeling quite tired, however, we found that the reception staff were not very welcoming or friendly, they just went through the process of getting us checked in, there was no ‘Welcome to our hotel, have you stayed with us before’, nothing of that nature, no welcome drink was offered. Once checked in, we went to our room which considering it was a 4* hotel, we were surprised at how basic the room was. We unpacked and tried to open the Safe to store our valuables. We were unable to open it so being tired, we decided to deal with everything the following morning. We were booked on a half board basis so, we got up the next morning to go for breakfast and both said how incredibly warm the room was and, because of the room temperature neither of us had slept well. We checked the air conditioning but were unable to deal with whatever the issue was. We then went for breakfast which, unfortunately, wasn’t great. We absolutely appreciate that with buffet food, due to it sitting, it can get cold quickly but, having said that, there were a lot of people staying at the hotel if the dining room was anything to go by which meant that the turnover of food from the buffet was quick so, I wouldn’t have expected the food to be as as cold as it was. Also, the toasters which were in the dining room, there just wasn’t enough of them and then, to make matters worse, when you put a slice of bread through the toaster you had to repeat the process 2 to 3 times as the bread wasn’t toasting!! Then we had the coffee machines of which you had to queue for a considerable length of time to get a coffee as again, for the amount of people, there weren’t enough coffee machines. After breakfast we went to reception to report the air conditioning issue. The chap with whom we spoke said he would get a maintenance person to fix whatever the issue was. We informed him we were out for the day so the technician could go into our room at any stage. We also asked about the Safe in our room to which the chap on reception advised that we would have to pay to use the safe. I was appalled to hear this saying to him ‘That’s daft, surely if there’s a safe in the room, it forms part of the room, it’s a bit like saying, there’s a wardrobe but you can’t hang your clothes in it until you pay to use it’. My view is if you’ve paid for a room, then you should have access to everything in that room especially the safe as it doesn’t cost the hotel any extra to allow guests access to the safe in their room!! After our day out, we came back to our room only to find that the air conditioning hadn’t been fixed much to our disappoin**ent and to make matters worse, when we reported it

The staff at this hotel were all lovely and generally inclusive of many languages! The cleaning staff, food hall staff, entertainment staff etc. were all very nice and helpful! Overall had a great experience and the hotel is located nearby a lot of the local places in puerto de la cruz that you might want to visit!

Just been back again for the third year, and we’ll definitely be back next year. We love this hotel. Amazing value for money, great pool area and pool bar, we love the hot tubs. We’re always sad to say goodbye to the friendly lizards. The rooms are great, air conditioned, good soundproofing and black out blinds. All of the staff are great. We never want to go home on our last day.

I believed the reviews of this hotel which was a mistake. This could be a great hotel with a fair bit of work. Making it into an aparthotel would be worthwhile. It does need updating to match 4 star expectations Good points: Views from the hotel are great. Steep walk into the town but nice to do. Courtesy bus is useful. Public transport is quick and cheap Breakfast buffet was good with a decent selection Supermarket is easy to walk to The hotel is clean and problems are rectified quickly. Bad points No soundproofing for rooms, can hear conversations from corridors, rooms above, below and to the side. Loud music was played from rooms. This was not good Terrible mattress on the bed - never come up against such a lumpy, uncomfortable mattress. Dreadful weeks sleep No drink making facilities in the room despite the kitchenette ( which is only equipped if paid for) Unusual to not have toiletry items such as shower caps, tissues, emergency toothbrushes etc in a four star hotel Room in general looked tired - very faded furniture cushions. Woodwork was shabby. Balcony railings were quite badly rusted Adult pool was unheated and icy. It was unusable because it was so cold Gym area exists but there is very little to it - quite disappointed Courtesy bus does not run on Saturday afternoons or Sundays. When it does run the timings can be as much as 20 minutes open - which was a heart stopping moment because it almost made us late for checkout and the airport transfer Given the hotels location at the top of a hill at the top of another steep hill it was surprising there was no shop to buy some essentials - large bottles of drinking water for example. Found one vending machine that did not sell much WiFi was slow - not to the speeds it was suggested to be

The hotel was lovely itself. When we arrived, champage was waiting for us as well as having a buggy take us to our hotel room. (Very helpful after a long flight and arriving at night) -Also tells you how big this hotel is! The rooms were big and in good condition. ( A wee bit dusty for my liking) Beds were OK- not too hard but defo on the hard side. Hotel grounds were lovely, room with a view of the sea. Location of the hotel is more on the quiet front, so i would suggest this hotel is for people who love to stay within the grounds of the hotel and not go exploring. (Unless you hire a car!) WIFI is also good, and there was TV in our room so no issues there. Food- People with allergies would struggle due to the nature of buffet food. There was lots of dairy free options which i was surprised at, gluten free items not to good... It gets incredibly busy breakfast and dinner times, so we timed our meals for when it was more quiet... Hotel staff were lovely from the interactions we had with them. We were out most of the time exploring so didnt use the hotel facilities as much as we would have liked. Would recommend if you want to stay in the hotel grounds and have buffet food. My pros: Large rooms Large hotel grounds Very welcoming and relaxed. Had no issues with smoking (thank god!) Lovely peaceful location. My cons: (Small i know) Not much signs of where things are. Doesnt explain fully the types of resturants and how to book them. Cleaners didnt feel to us they cleaned the floors when they cleaned our rooms. Breakfast and dinner was chaotic for us if we went in the typical times. (7pm start to dinners- tiny bit late? Especially people with kids?) Half board includes no drinks at all in the evening- so this is an extra. Overall a good stay, i would not attend again purely for the food side of things, due to intolerances and how busy it got. Thanks!

Overall a decent hotel. Good for a trip that is for a week or less. The hotel is clean and has lovely staff. Round by the pool it’s nice we came last week of august and the pool is not super busy at all. We were able to get a sunbed everyday without having to reserve one (as it’s not aloud). There is a lovely lifeguard called Tina who will help you when needed and helps keep round the pool nice and tidy. The bar staff are good and recommend food from the bar at lunch as it’s very nice. There are also lots of chair in lobby/ bar area to be able to sit and have a drink. And some chair outside as well to be able to sit on. The room are clean. With cleaners that come in every morning which is a bonus. Bedroom are good size with comfy beds, the pillows are very long but are still comfy. Rooms come with a Tv, large wardrobe and safe which can pay about €15 for the week for. A desk area with draws and a mirror. Bathroom was clean overall with a few minor flaws. Shower pressure is not brilliant but is good enough. There is also a bath. The balcony is nice we had a good sea view. There is a football pitch/ training ground near by but not too noisy and all noise stopped by 9:30ish. The food at breakfast was nice with plenty options. E.g fruit, cooked breakfast, omelette, pastries. Dinner also had some good options only flaw is restaurant is basement with some windows towards top so there is some light but it’s tidy and clean down there. Location is brilliant with plenty of restaurants near by. If you walk left out hotel there is the town is large but can walk to other end in about 35 mins. There also some good shops as well. If you walk til you get to a mcdonald's then go right up a hill theres a small shopping centre with some good shops. If you go right out the hotel til end of road and then left there is a market which is good i believe it’s on a Sunday. You can walk along beach with is about 5 mins away nice views but can sadly not go in the water due it being polluted but is still lovely to walk along. If you want to go in the sea there is places in the town or a beach about 25. minute walk away I believe. Hotels about 20 mins walk from monkey parks and a small town. Would highly recommend the area and had a nice stay in the hotel. With the staff making the stay very nice.

Very successful stay at the hotel. Rooms very comfortable Service at the highest level Breakfast the best we have eaten so far in hotels, everything fresh, very good quality and beautifully served. Lunch in the hotel restaurant also good. Spa beautiful, massage good - although it lasted shorter than the purchased package, hairdresser also good. Subtracts a star for the bill at the end. I wasn't going to check, but I was thrown by an extra massage service in the spa that I didn't have. I do not know if it was done on purpose to pay more, but in a hotel like this it should not happen, especially since the signed bills did not include such a massage. Additional time unnecessarily spent at the reception. Distaste remains.

This hotel has never been a 4 star plus hotel, we went at the end of August the room we was given was low standard, damaged furniture with stains on it that didn’t look pleasent, we payed extra for a more premium room with a balcony to find out every room has a balcony, and the more premium rooms were on floor 6 upwards, we was on floor 3, we went full board the food was average, the beds were comfortable, and the receptionist were really helpful, pillows weren’t comfy at all you, the shower was more like a caravan shower, and the bath you stood in was sinking we thought we was going to fall through it, the hotel from floor 6 onwards may have been ok but from 6 downwards I would not recommend.

Highly recommend, this hotel is very clean.. breakfast was included and the pool ontop of the roof was pretty small but I used the public pool, the reception staff helped me whenever and gave me directions and information, it's very central and I would stay again. I have no complaints what so ever... only thing I can suggest is having air con which the fan wasn't the best but still didn't effect my stay. Very lovely hotel with lovely friendly staff. Went solo and room was really small but I didn't mind

The hotel is decent and dated but not a four-star experience. The location is good, and the food is enjoyable. However, room cleanliness needs improvement, and the bathrooms would benefit from renovation, as they are dated but still comfortable. The elevators are an inconvenience, with only one typically functioning, requiring guests' patience. It often feels like the hotel staff may be controlling them. Additionally, the male front reception staff could be friendlier, as they sometimes come across as unfriendly or rude.
