    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    The Hotel Hesperia Playa Dorada turns out a great pool scene and a location that’s close to the beach and marina.

    When it comes to location, this hotel is hard to beat. The beach is practically within throwing distance, Rubicon Marina is five minutes away on foot, and the town centre comes in at ten.

    Highlights of this hotel include a pair of large pools, a beach bar and a huge roster of activities.

    Just to let you know this hotel is having a refurbishment and will be closed from 15th March 2020 to the 15th June 2020. When it reopens it'll have a new rating - 5T, and it'll be known as the Dreams Lanzarote Playa Dorada Resort & Spa.

    Underwhelming
    10 Nov , 2019 Myra H, 504019
    Clean and In a great location but there the good points end. No way is this hotel 4*. I have stayed at many hotels on the island over many years including this ones sister hotel at Puerto Calero. The Hesperian Playa Dorada left me very disappointed. Very large and impersonal certainly not a place for any one with mobility problems, it was a route march from our room to the restaurant. Food on the half board option was poor quality and the huge barn of a restaurant was a bit like eating in a school canteen. After two evening meals we gave up and chose to eat else where. Staff were a mixed bunch some pleasant enough but most just going through the motions. Disgusted to have to pay extra for use of the safe!!! No I won’t be recommending this hotel. What a pity that a hotel in such a great location can’t do better.
    Fab holiday😘

    We arrived 2weeks ago and leaving this lovely hotel today, such an amazing location and lovely hotel....only downside was building works next door which is out of hotels control but was a little noisy and dusty off site works.....not sure if Thomson should have emailed us to advise before arriving. Must mention all hard working bar and restaurant/pool bar staff amazing service from small pool staff right down to pool guard who was always so happy. Big shout out to animation team making our holiday so special with fun and fitness programmes....Steffi was a brilliant host and friend to us,Andrea kept us going with aqua fit and the one and only Ozzy who smiled always and had time for everyone. Brilliant teamxxxdef go back just need a few tweaks here and there to hotel as we upgraded and didn’t real feel any benefits as to luxury .
    Brilliant hotel

    We stayed at the hotel from the 14th October for 2 weeks on half board and would like to praise all concerned in the running of the hotel from the receptionists to the cleaners. Nothing was too much trouble spotlessly clean room every day Food good always something being cooked fresh by the chefs in front of you. The entertainment was excellent every night. The pool was warm at the front of the hotel but our favourite was the one at the back very refreshing. The position of the hotel couldn't be better on the flat as I have walking difficulties. The staff all smiling and friendly. Would I recommend this hotel. YES Had any problems going half board NO. Thanks to all. Please chop the tree down outside room 1229 lol.
    Smashing hotel, staff and animation team

    We came to this hotel two years ago and were so pleased we quickly booked up to come back again this time! The hotel in itself is smashing with friendly staff, very tasty food with good selections and lots to do, if you so wish, within the hotel organised very well by the Animation Team. The bedrooms were cleaned and tidied every day without fail - our rooms were facing the hotel car park entrance which we were a bit sceptical about at first, but needn't have worried. We could still see the sea and had a lovely view of the gardens and Hotel Yaiza opposite. To be honest, we were very glad we got these rooms as there is building work going on on the other side of the hotel which produced quite a lot of dust and a bit of noise. But being in these rooms, which were facing away from the building work, we had only a little dust and hardly any noise. Although there was building work going on next to our hotel, this did not affect our holiday at all - you could hear some noise when you were next to the Palapa pool but this was not intrusive (we were advised in advance by our Travel Agents that there was building work going on). The position of the hotel is perfect, just a few minutes walk in either direction brings you to either the shops at Playa Blanca or the Rubicon Marina, with the beach just being a few metres away. We must say how hard the Animation Team worked - they never stopped! They arranged lots to do throughout the day and were not pushy into trying to get you do everything. We did a spot of archery, rifle shooting, aqua gym and mojo making - it was great fun and light hearted too. They even decorated the foyer of the hotel with Halloween decorations which looked fantastic. - Thank you Animation Team! We did not want to leave and are hopefully going back again as soon as we can.
    Great views from our luxe room,super evening entertainment.
