Playa Blanca, H10 Lanzarote Princess

We were a bit unsure about this hotel after reading some of the negative reviews, but I would like to assure anyone thinking of visiting this hotel, it's a wonderful atmosphere and the negative reviews were just a lot of old griping. As far as we were concerned we had the best time ever at the H10 Lanzarote Princess, and are certainly hoping to go again

The hotel has been under major refurbishment. This has been done in stages and has just been completed.We have been to this hotel 7 times - and are going back again in November - so watch this space.

I can find nothing wrong with this hotel, my sons enjoyed it and my husband did. Now I am a widow I am still coming but with a friend.

The staff are most friendly and polite, the atmosphere is pleasant and happy. Everywhere is clean also the rooms. God service all round.

This hotel is now very out of date and tired. 1980's decor and scuffed gold/marble are wherever you go. The room we had was depressing and poorly decorated, and it did not match the brochure pictures. The hotel caters primarily for the elderly and perhaps undemanding crowd. It desperately needs to be closed and refurbished, and First Choice we understand will shortly drop the H10 Lanzarote Princess Hotel from their books for this reason. The hotel is trying to avoid this by decorating around the guests. This is not good for first impressions. Given the number of guest complaints about rooms, the hotel offers guests the chance to transfer for free to a sister hotel down the road - the Rubicon. I would strongly recommend you do this, as the Rubicon is significantly better. The H10 group is just being let down here by poor infrastructure, as their other hotels are great.

The hotel staff are helpful and pleasant, but they cannot disguise the fact this hotel is now really a 3* hotel pretending to be 4*.

Playa Blanca, H10 Lanzarote Princess - Stayed here in March with partner & 3 year old. Guests very much over 65 years old. Hence 3yr old allowed in Kids Club. She thought that was fab as had one on one looking after. Pool area very nice and large. Foodvery good and plentyful. Entertainment could be better.

This was our second year back at the H10 Lanzarote Princess Hotel. Again we were very pleased. There is nothing I could say that was bad about it. It is very family friendly. Very relaxed atmosphere and friendly. Many people that we spoke to again are returners. It is highly recommended for families and older couples. Not really for 18-30's if you see what I mean. There is a lovely Piano Bar if you just want to relax and enjoy soft entertaining music, or there is an entertainments bar which is brilliant for the kids (and adults). Both my children aged 6 and 8 absolutely love it. There is something for everyone. Food is great with theme nights to make it more interesting. If you decide to go, you would not be disappointed. We have already booked to go back next year. Great!!!!

Playa Blanca, H10 Lanzarote Princess - This is possibly the best hotel my wife and I have ever stayed at. There is just something about its atmosphere that is very appealing. We have been seven times over a six year period, and it is the only place we have been back to more than once where we have not been disappointed. The staff are brilliant and exceptionally friendly, the food is consistently good, the rooms are spacious and well equipped, and the facilities are faultless. The hotel is older than many others in the area but enjoys an identity all of its own. Playa Blanca is changing rapidly with new development but still retains a particular charm. Advice is to go soon before the place is spoilt beyond recognition and is dominated by even more Chinese restaurants and camera shops. It is cheaper to book one's own flights and hotel online, and get a car from the airport (AutoReisen was cheap and good service).

Stayed at H10 Lanzarote Princess in Dec 2003 with my wife and we had a great holiday.

I Loved the hotel and it was a real bonus to end up here as it was a last-minute job. Loved Playa Blanca. Lot quieter than the naff Puerto Del Carmen and the none descript Costa Teguise, but also lot more classy. Recommended all round.
