First time staying at Plus Fariones. Location couldn’t be better. Service was fantastic, staff were all very attentive and friendly and amenities were fabulous. We had a select suite which also meant access to the solarium and lounge (with complimentary drinks and snacks) and separate area in the dining room. Well worth it. We’ve always loved PDC, and have now found our regular hotel.

Plus Fariones Suite Hotel. Officially rated 4 star. Travelled with Jet2. Stayed November 4th to November 11th on half-board basis. Room 130. Fabulous stay at this hotel which was completely refurbished and reopened in July 2023. Room - the room (suite) exceeded all expectations, spacious, cleaned thoroughly daily and well equipped. Bonus was that we had a ground floor room which opened up directly onto the pool area. The patio was sun facing from late morning to sun-down. The lounge area was spacious and the air-con worked well. The room also had a large fridge, sink area and microwave (?). Pool area - well stocked with sunbeds and towel change on demand. We never had to reserve a sunbed as a function of having a ground floor room, but some narcissists just cant help themselves, out early with their towels for a prime spot by the pool that they never used. The pool was cold, but welcomed as we had 30 degree weather during our week there. Beach - direct access from the hotel, 2 loungers and a parasol cost 10.50 euro per day. The sea was warmer than the pool! Bar - relaxing area and reasonably priced drinks (for a hotel) with good service. Entertainment was provided each evening which was always to a good standard. Breakfast - good choice of hot and cold fare, breads, meats and fruit, juices and hot drinks. Evening meal - probably the only disappointing aspect. Although I never left the dining room hungry, choice was at best, adequate, and probably the main reason why Jet2 don't rate this as a "Luxe" hotel. Staff were always attentive and a special mention to Ceasar who always had a smile for everyone. With hindsight we should have booked on a B&B basis as there are many fantastic restaurants to dine in locally within a very short walk. Gym - modern and well furnished, and hardly used. Spa - didn't use so can't comment on the quality or value for money aspect. Prices were circa 80 euros for a massage for 50 mins. Tip - there is a bike hire shop just round the corner to the left as you exit the hotel. We hired a couple of electric bikes and cycled past the airport to Arricife along the promenade to Playa Honda. A great way to spend a few hours away from the hotel to get some exercise and to catch some rays. Local area - having stayed in Puerto Del Carmen before we knew what to expect. It is a tale of two cities, the strip for those who like the English/Irish style bars serving large beers at 2 euros, and the "old" town harbour part with a bit more sophistication. The Fire House bar is just around the corner and well worth a visit - great live music every evening, great atmosphere, clientele and hosts. Overall - I wouldn't hesitate to come back and stay at the Plus Fariones Suite hotel, albeit on a B&B basis (already looking to book for Nov 2025). Having also previously stayed at the Fariones 5 start hotel (next door), I found my stay at the Fariones Suite hotel far more enjoyable (and much better value for money). Thank you to all the staff who made our holiday a memorable and enjoyable one.

You will NOT be disappointed in this hotel we booked select but to be honest the hotel is so good we really didn't use the services that come with it except the rooftop solarium and that was probably the reason we booked it so we would be guaranteed a sun bed but there were plenty sunbeds without having to get up a stupid o'clock, we were half board and that would be my only criticism the food in the evening was pretty boring, but that is a personal choice, staff all fabulous

This Hotel has the best location , to wake up to .. but sadly the rest didnt meet up to the standard I was expecting. Firstly the room , strange lay out, felt like I was sleeping in a box , its nice to wake up from your bed and see the sea but the rooms are not planned out like that . a little disappointing. I couldn't wait to have our meals , breakfast etc , but what a let down . The food was so bland , and believe me Im not a fussy eater. We started to feel low about going to the restaurant because of the food and the way it is set up. In the morning the tea is poured into a small tea pot , but nowhere for your Milk, so you had to fill another pot for your Milk , which was nowhere near the tea. That was just annoying. The food was not very nice at all . The bacon was transparent , just a piece of oblong fat .. awful, the eggs where ok , the sausage not to my liking, so I ate cereal and fruit. The evening meal.. what can I say , so bland , and why put fried onions on top of cauliflower ?? the chips where ok . The carbonara had mashed potato on top ! ?? I saw some turkey sliced so thought I would try that , it had no taste at all .. I thought to myself ok Ill have rice pudding , surely that cant go wrong ?? It was watery and tasted of perfume. really weird. The scrambled eggs where also full of water .. It was just awful we ended up eating out 3 times costing more to the holiday . In the room there is a microwave , but no plates or cutlery ?? there was a kettle and 2 cups . The fridge door was hanging off , we did tell them to come and screw it back on .. and they did . The housekeeper never washed the cups we left . In the evening they put away the coffee machines so you cant get yourself a coffee , you would have to buy it . We went to the bar around 10.35pm we asked for a cappuccino, he said the machine was broken , yet in the morning it was working , we just felt he didn't want to bother as it was late . One evening I was told some staff didn't turn up for work so one of the waitresses Fernanda was rushing round the place, doing the job of 3 people , I gave her 10 euros as a tip as I could see she was stressing out. Getting back to the food , even the ice cream was melting , it wasnt like ice cream should be . In the morning I thought I would just have toast , but again the jams etc where nowhere near the bread , and had to spoon it on the plate, then the butters where on a different side ?? all strange , they need to look at this . Getting back to the location its the best , but sadly the food isn't good at all , one guy said to me " who on earth would put fried onions on top of the cauliflower , even the peas where hard as they had been burnt. I tried the goulash one night it was just full of fat hardly any meat , couldnt eat it . The lasagne was tastless. We felt miserable going down for dinner at times, as we knew we wouldn't like it , believe me we tried !! had 3 great meals out though to make up but cost us an extra 190 euros . sorry this is so long but when we return I think The fariones Hotel is one to book although 5 star its not that much more than the cost of the Fariones suites.
