Playa de la Arena

Based in a fabulous converted old house with an inner courtyard based in the centre of La Laguna within four minutes walk of the cathedral. We had originally booked Manila suite but, on reading reviews about noise (although apparently it has now been double glazed) and speaking with the property, we decided to upgrade to the Amaro Pargo suite, which was lovely and spacious and at the back of the property, with a large balcony overlooking the inner courtyard and beautiful glazed balcony overlooking the garden. Huge comfortable bed and separate dressing /wardrobe area as well as a separate room with a sofa bed. Very good price and lots of space. As the property is in the centre, it is difficult to find parking on the streets but we used the car park recommended by the property where we were charged only €7.50 for overnight parking. I personally would avoid the rooms at the front of the property (particularly room 1, which is right next door to the front door) as it is on a busy road and indeed roadworks were going on when we were there. Internet was a bit patchy. Lots of great restaurants in walking distance and a Spar next door to the cathedral for necessities. Would definitely come back here if we returned to La Laguna, which is great for accessing the Anaga National Park.

Food was amazing, hotel was clean and beautiful. Staff are so kind and attentive! Nothing bad to say.

Basic hotel with options to take full board. Room wasn’t cleaned to a high standard and bed very uncomfortable. Good value for a stopover.
