Radisson Blu Resort Gran Canaria Arguineguin

Lee Blyth

Good 4 star (breakfast 5 star). Location not near beach or port if with older people - it’s 15 min walk to the front. Our rooms were great on appearance but we had several issues (drain flies, insects and ants, cockroaches!) which kept appearing out of nowhere. The kids loved the large slightly salty pool - very warm and big enough for a lot of children. Breakfast staff were A+ as was the breakfast itself. Truly 5*. It’s a nice place but just lacks a certain ‘holiday feeling’ with its modern design and position. Sports facilities are also good but book up fast. Entertainment is standard fair but everyone seemed to enjoy it and the performers made a big effort to entertain and engage the crowd. The kids loved the magician particularly. Dads = beers are cheap here and they have footy on if that’s your thing. Nice hotel but not great. Recommend Masplomas over Mogan for 1week or more stay.

A fantastic 5 days for some much needed winter sun! Nothing was too much trouble, the staff are all extremely friendly and helpful. Highly recommend having breakfast, a sumptuous buffet with everything you could want and more! We had a room with a jacuzzi which was a real treat. Will definitely be back. Thank you!

If the bathroom amenities and breakfasts were more attuned with the price of the accommodation I would rate this hotel a full 5 star. We had stayed at 3 other Canary islands over 3 weeks with other supposedly 5 star accommodations, but the Radisson Blu was the closest. Really, the quality of the soaps, shampoos, lotions are an integral part of a hotel's ratings. Moreover, the shower was the only one NOT with a half glass curtain requiring you to be a contortionist to prevent flooding the bathroom floor. The sea view room on the 9th floor was as advertised. The buffet breakfasts were adequate but could offer more variety. A chef in charge of egg orders is always welcome. The freshness of the gluten free breads, however, should be checked more frequently as I had to throw out a past due date bun. Would have liked Blue Cheese on more than a single day. Machine made coffees especially cappuccinos are not very tasty. There should be a barista in charge of specialty coffees. One major sanitary critique is that servers should never put their finger's on the eating portion of forks, knives, spoons. They should also not put their fingers into cups, glasses, and onto plates especially after they have sneezed or coughed into their hands. Have people already forgotten about disease transmission during COVID? The pool bar was our favourite for lunches and the occasional dinner. Restaurant 222 SW Bar and Grill was a superior restaurant, but its servings could be larger. After all we are on vacation and not fasting. The dinner buffet suffered the same critique as the breakfasts served in the same room. Additionally, the Asian buffet was abysmal. the hotel should hire a Sushi Chef as what we tried to eat bore no resemblance to Japanese sushi nor sashimi. We tried 1 sushi, passed on what was supposedly sashimi and ate western. Service the backbone of any hotel was exceptional. We had a very late flight home. Both day and night reception worked to allow us major latitude with our check out time allowing us to have 1 final lunch, dinner, and shower before leaving for the airport. This kindness alone would be enough for me to unequivocally endorse this Radisson Blu hotel.

This is the perfect location in the best part of Gran Canaria. And the hotel is superb - huge perfectly comfortable bed, really spacious room, bathroom and balcony. Sun shines on the balcony for most of the day. Staff are exceptionally polite and helpful. With two beaches on either side and attractive beachside restaurants, we had a dream holiday. Will be back next year.

For our seventh and final 2024 holiday we stayed 12 days over Christmas. Firstly, the most comfortable beds we've found in a hotel and on a par with our own back home in the UK. Secondly, the view from our eighth floor balcony was exceptional and so peaceful. The Christmas evening meal went above and beyond. The immense amount of detailed work put in had to be seen to be appreciated. The food and friendly personal service was exemplary through out the stay and the spa and couples massages are strongly recommended. As a bonus you could, using Bluetooth, connect the large TV to your own device and play your music through the system. We'll be back, I'm sure!
