What is a short title?
28 December 2007
This is a good hotel with no serious problems. Just a couple of negatives first. The water in the room never got hot enough - warm at night, barely luke warm in the morning. Also the swimming pools are not warm leading to them being under utilised. However, the hotel has much to commend it. The decor of the hotel is solid four star. the rooms are comfortable and spacious also kept spotlessly clean, as indeed is the whole hotel. The service at the bars is quite good but they could use more staff at times. We were all inclusive which I recommend, the beer is San Miguel both draught and bottled. There are also a number of branded wines and spirits e.g. Martini, Tio Pepe, Smirnoff etc. This is not always the case with A.I.
I have read reviews in the past criticizing the food. Anyone who cannot find food to their liking here should not really be leaving the house. There is a huge selection of high quality food. The imaginative salads and fish dishes are particularly good. Some of the food could be hotter but there is a microwave in the restaurant for diners to use if required. The Costa Teguise centre was not particularly to our liking, but we hired a car to tour the unspoilt island - highly recommended. We would not hesitate to use the hotel again.

This hotel was brill. The food was great, plenty of choice, room kept clean and beds made daily. Poolside bar good. Did notice on one of the reviews a comment about having to pay extra for food. This is if you want something not included in the AI. Found the AI range was good enough without paying extra for other food. Entertainment was good, the Flamenco daners were out of this world. Free drinks end at 11pm but managed to get tipsy by that time. Would recommend Loco Coco(cocktail) drunk these every night, WOW. Staff very friendly and helpful. This hotel impressed us that much that we are looking to book with the same chain for the next holiday. One word of caution though,the pool is NOT heated and was rather cold, My husbands extremities took a battering!!
Go and enjoy and have a great time.

Review of 'Barcelo Lanzarote'
06 April 2007
El hotel esta muy bien las comidas son muy buenas las piscinas son grandes y la habitacion que nos toco era bastante espaciosa ya que alquilamos una junior suite el servicio es excelente el unico inconveniente es que el hotel esta un poco alegado del centro de costa teguise y la playa y si no alquilas un coche estas todo el dia con taxi o el autobus pero en definitiva recomendaria el hotel a cualquiera es una buena eleccion.

Review of 'Barcelo Lanzarote'
11 December 2006
Having read other reviews, I was slightly concerned that I was going to be met by an ugl hotel, miles from anywhere, with bad food and smell for the de-salination plant. Not so.
Yes, this hotel is some distance from the centre of town, but a courtesy bus solved that problem. The walk into town is do-able. It is more of a pleasant stroll than a major hike. Nightlife, however would have to be centred around the hotel as it is possibly too far to walk at night unless you get a taxi.If you like roasts, then you are all set!! Roast veal, duck,beef, chicken, turkey etc. Otherwise the meals can perhaps get a bit samey. Having said that, the hotel was no worse than most other hotels I have visited. A taxi from the airport is only 15 minutes. I wouldn't travel by courtesy coach, it's not necessary. I always found the staff helpful and pleasant, even though the majority of guests were Spanish. The only problem we faced was the location of our room in block 5. There were stairs to negotiate whichever way we attempted to get to the room as the lift did not go to our section. The layout of the hotel was somewhat confusing. I wouldn't stay at this hotel again, purely because I prefer the other side of the island. If you like Costa Teguise and don't want to be in the centre of town, this hotel is fine.

Review of 'Barcelo Lanzarote'
20 October 2006
We booked our weeks holiday All Inclusive and this is one of the best bar service that i've stayed in however the A.I. finishes at 11pm and the bars stay open till 1pm for a late disco. The quality of the food was average and very repetitive. Okay if you like steak and chops every night! I would have preferred a choice of cold meats to go with the salad stuff they had almost every sitting. The choice for the kids was not great either and we found the variety of food at the snack bar during the day to be much better however 90% of the food on the menu you have to pay a supplement (30% discount on the price). My kids love pizza and we had to pay for this almost every day and spaghetti also. The entertainment for the kids and adults during the day was superb and some of the evening shows were also good. A free courtesy bus ran almost every half hour into the town. I would definately go back here again but eat out more often!

Review of 'Barcelo Lanzarote'

A very good hotel, plenty of sunbeds around the pool with pool bar as well as a couple of sun terraces with loads more, there is also a quite pool with more beds behind block two,the food is of a good standard. the hotel is a good thirty minute walk to the town but the hotel will call a cab that only costs 4 euros, there is a good mixture of Spanish, English,Italian,German,and French, the entertainment team work hard but if you get involved be prepared to get wet. . Overall a very good hotel and if you dont want to spend your time with the pie and mash brigade then a good choice.

Review of 'BARCELO LANZAROTE'
16 June 2006
We stayed at the Barcelo Lanzarote in Oct 2005 and had a fantastic stay. The Hotel had been recently refurbished and was very clean. On arriving, the reception area was large and staff very friendly and helpful. Our room was a good size and very clean. We sayed on a half board basis - the dining room is very spacious and food was excellent with a good choice for breakfast (Champagne if desired!) and dinner was excellent too. The Pools are a good size and again kept very clean. Bus to beach every 30 mins. (7 minute journey). Would definately visit a barcelo hotel again.
