Hotel Riu Palace Tenerife

This is the second time we have stayed at one of the RIU hotels, and it is by far miles better than the one in Mexico. Much cleaner with a modern feel. The grounds are lush and extensive facing onto the sea front. There are 4 pools in total... a small shallow one for toddlers, 2 large ones for adults and children and an Infinity pool for adults only, all of which are clean. Getting a sun bed is a different matter though if you want a prime location at the Infinity pool. During our stay some people commandeered particular sunbeds, by either putting towels out in the middle of the night or getting up very early to lay claim to one. While I understand it’s a first come first served policy I still found it somewhat selfish. I’m am surprised that it goes unchecked by hotel management. I have read the other reviews about food.... yes there is plenty of choice but we frequently found food that was meat to be hot was actually Luke warm. Breakfast... milk for the cereal was warm and not cold. Eggs mostly under cooked.... depending on how you liked them. Overall a nice hotel with a relaxing vibe.

My Mum and I visited this hotel for a girly week away to relax. Relax we did which was lovely. The food was nice too with a variety to chose from although Mum said there wasn't as much a variety as other Riu Palace's she has previously visited. Entertainment in the evening varied. Some acts were really good though others not so much but rather cringy. Lovely walk along the front.

As previously, we really enjoyed our holiday at this hotel. The food is wide ranging and of a high standard. Rooms are very clean and comfortable. Service is professional. Extra little touches add to the holiday. Tea services in room has been a positive addition. Disappointed only with the bill of €44 for using the room safe for two weeks.
