Gran Hotel Victoria
10/10 Excellent
"The Americano breakfast for our first morning was uninspired; however, our fruit and yogurt choice the second morning was very tasty and more than we could eat. That second breakfast success assured that we would stay there again. The hotel had few guests during our two-day stay and was very quiet at night. Clean throughout the property."
"Ideal place! 2 minutes walk to the beach and all the restaurants. Great view and even greater hosts. Carolina is super helpful and is always there to make sure you dont lack anything. "
"Note: it is far from the beach. You will need a taxi to take you to and from the beach. Which is around $20 round trip. All the restaurants and stores are at the beach.
BUT other than that, the resort is amazing. I’d say spend a day at the beach because that’s all you really need. The resort has a nice pool, bar, skatepark, gym and restaurant.
The room is comfortable. Nice shower, cozy bed. AC. No bugs or dirt. "
"Solo female traveler here.
Let me just start by saying if you want to do more fun hostel partying, stay near the little volcano. If you’re here to chill and take it easy. Stay around big volcano. Unless you have a moto or car.
The area around has everything you need. Restaurants both touristy and local, groceries, cafes, tour guides, etc. I felt safe and entertained but most of the activities I had to use a moto (or find a guy who had a moto haha)
The room itself was very nice. No bugs or dirt. A good AC (if you hear weird noises at night, it’s most likely AC or birds on top) nice shower.
The staff was helpful, all of them were very nice. The tipico food was very good. Those ladies are wonderful cooks :) I’d stay here again if I wanted a relaxing island vibe. "
