Review 3:Staff we're amazing. First family holiday. Absolutely loved my time spent. 9 month old had an amazing time too
Review 4:everything was perfect!
Review 5:The location was just right, a 5 minute walk to the Sunset strip.The staff is delightful and very helpful. Completely value for money
Review 6:maybe the food but I'm rather picky.

Review 10:I would recommend hotel to family and friends. Overall from the cleanliness of the room to the food in the restaurant, could not complain. A very enjoyable stay at the hotel!
Review 11:1)I had asked for an upper floor but i diidnt get it... since im a solo traveller they could have provided an better view ....i was on 1st floor and very poor site to see..2).they could have given me a take away bfast coz i got this early flight ...it was bread and coffee ony for a sit down bfast ????....anyway there will be a next time
Review 12:Female Power for the Reception Team is very remarkable accessisble from Bus stop Bounty Bfast
Review 13:N/A
Review 14:Excellent friendly service, spotlessly clean throughout, dining I would rate 4-5 stars, room modern including British tv! Fab location for sunset strip as mambo, del mar 5 mins walk & Golden Buddah across the road. Definitely going back next year!!
Review 15:I didn't like the fact that I wasn't able to stay longer!!!
Review 16:The hotel personnel, at all levels, were extremely courteous, professional and helpful. Nothing was too much to ask of them. Managerial staff were able to speak many languages. The hotel was spotless and showed great attention to detail. I cannot understand why this hotel is still rated 3 stars as it is clearly a 4 star hotel!!
Review 17:They forget to make the wake up call that we asked for 6 AM, so we could catch the plane. Luckly we awake be ourselfs. The hotel could have more activities.
Review 18:The pool bar staff where very nice. The food was also very good.
Review 19:There is nothing about the hotel that I can say I did not like. Everything is positive.
Review 20:The location of the hotel is excellent as it is near to the centre of San Antonio (approximately a 10 minute walk). Everything about the hotel is great including the excellent range of food available at breakfast and dinner as they have thought of everything, there is so much variety. My friend and I are looking to book again for next year, our third time at the hotel!
Review 21:Nothing re the hotel (although our view did overlook a petrol station!) but we didn't like San Antonio. Only stayed one night to go to Cafe del Mar (which was great) but sadly the town isn't nice. Where the Gran Sol is is definitely the best part however.
Review 22:The staff and the way the hotel is set up is really customer focussed. They were really friendly and helpful with questions and requests. On the day we checked out, we weren't flying home until late, and they accommodate this situation really well. They have lockers large enough for suitcases that you lock like a safe, and the have showers, fresh towels and toiletries all for free so you can freshen up. Fantastic service, especially when it's not a costly hotel.
Review 23:Pool was cold and no music round pool I don't mean loud party music bit a few chill out sound soil have give the hotel some atmosphere
Review 24:The food and staff were great
Review 25:None.
Review 26:Cleanliness of the hotel is 1st class in all areas. Lovely staff always helpful, a credit to the hotel. Deserves a lot more than3*. Location for us was just right. Would return and definitely recommend.
Review 27:Pool was not heated
Review 28:Great location just far enough away from hustle and bustle . Great for singles couples or families , a little more chilled out and relaxed hotel but within walking distance to mambo etc
Review 29:awful staff - confrontational, wouldn't return my passport for 45 minutes (?!) - how long does it take to make a photocopy (?!). Check-in woman very rude and also pretended not to speak english then suddenly spoke perfect english while trying to sell me more nights (?!!). Room didn't smell fresh. Looks out over an abandoned lot and a gas station. Far from everything.
Review 30:I would like to see more entertainment for children and in the evenings other than that nothing.
Review 31:Everything from staff to the amazing breakfast inc full English breakfast,pool was gorgeous ....a very welcoming relaxed family run hotel to the highest standard. Lovely stay we will definitely visit again.
Review 32:Was a nice 15/20 min walk to the west end where all the bars are
Review 33:The room was super clean and comfortable, also fridge in the room to keep our drinks cold, also beds were made up and fresh towels provided every day
Review 34:Lovely hotel, perfect location, room was clean & had everything you needed. Staff were very pleasant and welcoming. Breakfast was a high quality, pool area was quiet and relaxing, will definitely advise anyone to go (families, couples and groups) who would like an excellent hotel in a quieter area of San Antonio. Will be back next year.
Review 35:We loved this hotel. Staff could not be more accommodating, hotel was spotless, beautiful pool and terrace. Excellent location, only 7 minute walk to cafe del mar etc and short taxi to San Antonio. Would highly recommend this hotel.
Review 36:No character. Slow WiFi. Salty tap water. No facility to boil hot water for tea or coffee. Cold staff. Noisy cleaners.
Review 37:A modern hotel with air-conditioning. Spacious room and big bed. Small fridge. Quite comfortable.
Review 38:It's a bit far from the bus station like 1.1 km. But if you come here with a taxi then you have no problem.
Review 39:The hotel is very new and has everything you need. They sell 5 liters of water at the reception so you don't have to carry a heavy bottle of water from a supermarket. Also as a solo traveler this was the best choice ever. The room I stayed was a normal double room but the price was cheaper.
Review 40:In my room Wifi was pretty good although you need to log in every time. In my friend's room Wifi was a lot worse.
Review 41:Staff was very friendly and helpful! The hotel was only a 5 minute walk from the sunset strip (Cafe Mambo, Cafe Del Mar...), where you can go and watch the sunset. Breakfast was good and there was a great variety.
Review 42:Could hear people in the room above. Also a lot of ants around the pool/garden area.
Review 43:We had a room with a view of the sea front which was lovely. The hotel is close enough to the bars but not too close to be able to relax.
Review 44:A very minor issue and I do not want to be negative about this hotel as it was very good. However, we had a room right by the lift and it was a little noisy-especially late at night and early in the mornings. If/when we stay again we would simply request a room away from the lift and I'm sure the hotel would accommodate.
Review 45:The hotel staff were very helpful and I could not fault them at all. Plenty of information provided about the island and any questions we needed answering. Fab! The pool was very nice and food at the poolside was good and very reasonable!
Review 46:Everything was just great. The best choice for San Antonio and the best value for money. Clean and cosy hotel near Sunset strip, professional staff, nice pool area. There were wifi, mini-frige and safe box in our room, in fact everything you need.
Review 47:I come to this hotel every summer at some point and it never disappoints. The staff is always nice and respectful even though they have to deal with some difficult clientele being in San Antonio. I never have any negative interactions with the staff which is a bonus in Ibiza! Thanks for being so awesome!
Review 48:I stayed here with 4 friends all aged 30 yrs old. We found this hotel excellent place to stay. It is right beside cafe mambo (about 3 min walk) and about 10 min walk from the west end. Excellent location. Staff are very friendly and excellent service. Rooms are very clean and towels changed daily.food is nice in the hotel or there is nice restaurants around to go to.free safety deposit box and air conditioning. Recommend this hotel for groups or couples or families who want a good location but don't want a noisey hotel or mad pool area. Very chilled out atmosphere.
Review 49:Shame no food on site
Review 50:Sarah on reception is amazing nothing ever too much trouble. I am regular visitor to ibiza stayed all over the island at 5star hotels but first choice is always Don Pepe Staff great, location great, view from the right room great
Review 51:Quiet hotel - lots of couples and some families, but it's the price you pay if you'd rather stay in better location & better quality hotel.
Review 52:Close to Sunset Strip Over the road from Supermarket & little cafe Cleaners visited daily Polite/Friendly staff
Review 53:Beds are comfy but would be good if they had doubles instead of twin beds
Review 54:Fantastic stay again at Gran Sol, staff lovely and food was great, pool very clean, best value for money in San antonio
Review 55:Excellent hotel. Location great if you wanted to be in a quieter part of San Antonio. All staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast - everything you could want to eat. Will definitely return.
Review 56:Unhappy that coffee in room was only provided on first day and I had to buy a jar myself after that. Also had to clean coffeetray and cups myself.
Review 57:Excellent facilities and staff were very friendly
Review 58:This is a fantastic hotel, so clean. all staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Location was excellent only 7 min walk along the coast walkway to the sunset strip but a quiet hotel. 3 Swimming pools were great and you never had to look far for a bed. Grassy area was immaculate. Breakfast was amazing, so much to choice from! Drink at the bar was cheap and the food was lovely!
Review 59:Can't fault it!
Review 60:Nice feel to the place, no drunken idiots in the hotel! Staff friendly and full of information. Room very clean and fresh. Well organised for check out procedures with separate lockers and showers etc. I was on room only and paid €12 for dinner there on my last night, plenty to choose from and really tasty, wish I'd done half board! Location great as 3 min walk to watch the sunset on the beach or at Cafe del Mar.
Review 61:Location is absolutely superb with close amenities. Shops are within 20 metres with some really nice breakfast cafe's around too. Take a nice walk down the beach to Cafe Mambo - the beautiful Ibiza sunset. Here you can get in to San An quickly and find bars, restaurants and the rest. Hotel itself was spot on, a nice mix of guests which made for it to be not to "mental" which is good. We sunbathed outside with a little speaker on but everyone was very respecting. Staff were fantastic, all service was with a big smile on the face and everyone is willing to try and help you wherever they can. My girlfriend lost an expensive necklace in the room, only to realise once we had checked out on our last day. They asked for details to send it back and although she gave the details, we were skeptical about getting it back. 2 days later, my girlfriend had an email to say that they had found it and they would post it back free of charge. What service is that, couldn't possibly be better :) 100% recommend.
Review 62:The hotel staff are great, location is perfect in San Antonio, breakfast and dinner food options are really good, rooms are clean, spacious and comfortable. I have nothing bad to say about this hotel.
Review 63:I can't find any faults.
Review 64:Loved everything about this place. The little touches before we had even arrived...an email with useful information for arrival. Every staff member was professional and friendly. The room was perfect, clean and comfy. There was a lovely selection of food and the pool area was ideal with plenty of loungers and space. Location was perfect, a short walk to all of the main bars and clubs, some nice chill bars only a few seconds away, but hotel was still quiet and relaxed.
Review 65:anything, I was happy with my stay.
Review 66:I liked that the hotel was close enough to Mambo cafe and cafe del Mar, also 15 min by walk to bus station where you can get bus to any club or to Ibiza town for only 2 Euros. It was very quite hotel not for party people but for someone who want to sleep as well during the night. I loved breakfast and dinner, so delicious and so many options of food, really nice. Room was clean, bed was comfortable and large balcony enabled me to work out in the morning. People working at the hotel were all really friendly and helpful, spoke good english and create family like atmosphere. Would recommend this hotel to anyone who like to see Ibiza but doesn't want to stay in the place full of drunk party people.
Review 67:Not anything I didnt like as such but Wifi tempremental but this is an issue at all hotels in Ibiza. Can of Pepsi 2.20 Euro bit steep
Review 68:Loved the Gran Sol! great hotel rooms very nice the breakfast and dinner were great plenty of options and idfferent selections each day.
Review 69:The hotel was excellent value, it was perfect as a place for a group of friends to stay and was extremely clean and well maintained. The staff were also excellent, so friendly and helpful. Would definitely come back!
Review 70:Noisy when staff are cleaning the other rooms. They move all furnitures and walls are not soundproof ! A bit annoying to be wake up every morning ok vacation
Review 71:Location, quiet area but not far from downtown bars and restaurants
Review 72:Can't fault Gran Sol. Staff throughout were super efficient & friendly, couldn't do enough to help. Rooms were clean & comfortable, food was superb, drink prices from the bar very reasonable. Wouldn't hesitate to return.
Review 73:Kettle in the room would have been helpful. That's probably more of an English than continental thing though. Cannot fault anything else.
Review 74:Best thing was the little room fridge. Not expected and very useful. Scores 10/10 for cleanliness - everywhere was gleaming. Huge shower head gave lovely monsoon shower. Tons of loungers at pool.
Review 75:Had a minor issue with our a/c but this was sorted really quickly.
Review 76:The staff were fantastic, really friendly and helpful. The hotel was lovely and clean, great breakfast and room was spotless. We tried a hotel recommended restaurant in San an which was beautiful and very authentic Ibizan food.
Review 77:I've stayed several times at this hotel and WiFi has never worked reliably in the rooms. Even during the low season it was completely unusable. On every occasion I needed access I had to use the coin operated public computers downstairs --a less than ideal situation.
Review 78:Impressively clean!
Review 79:Wifi was poor in bedroom despite good signal. It was much better in foyer. The room's fridge was a but noisy and no way to turn off.
Review 80:We booked a couple of nights here last minute in October. We meant to stay one night, but enjoyed the hotel so stayed 3 nights. As it was end of season there was a nice discount. The hotel was quite modern, mostly excellent staff, nice clean sizeable rooms, great breakfast and the evening buffet was lovely. The bar did a very nice sangria too. The sea and Cafe del Mar / Mambo were a short walk away, the main strip a little further.
Review 81:Nothing apart from some rude guests which can't be helped.
Review 82:Within San Antonio, it was less than 300yds from the coast, 5min walk from Cafe Del Mar and the Sunset Strip and a 10min walk from the marina & bars of San Antonio yet far enough away to be very quiet at night time. Private feeling inside around the pool. Good food and drinks choices to suit all tastes. Room was clean, large and modern and all our room (and most others) ha a great view. Some may have even caught the sunset on the other side. Wifi (free!) reception was very good in Reception area, room (6th floor) and around the pool. Friendly staff only too happy to help. Most speaking English Spanish and some German. Excellent holiday. Would definately return again.
Review 83:Nothing to dislike
Review 84:Attitude of reception (smiley) Most pleasant staff ever helpful Buffet meals, best of any hotel visited, in both varity and quality Cleanliness overall perfect
Review 85:wifi only good in the reception
Review 86:This place is great. Rooms are very clean and balcony with a view of the sunset strip. Location is great walking distance to the sunset strip and town is only 10 mins walk.
Review 87:Liked it all..clean throughout..lovely grassed area for sunbathing..very helpful staff..excellent variety of food..local to shops and bars...
Review 88:The dinner isn't great. Just go breakfast only.
Review 89:the breakfast was excellent but the dinner wasn't very good. i would go breakfast only next time and not half board. Good location for the sunset bars and far enough away from the west end. comfy rooms. Free wifi etc.
Review 90:Absolutely nothing!
Review 91:This hotel is very well located for Central and Mambo bars etc. but just far enough away from the noisy buzz. Great food and oh so friendly. Lots of people staying there had come back for years which speaks volumes.
Review 92:water not freely available at evening meal
Review 93:close to beautiful beaches close to Cafe Mambo close to Golden Buddha good bar prices great service beach towel hire very clean
Review 94:The wifi was a bit slow, but it was free which was a bonus.
Review 95:The staff were very friendly and helpful. Easy to book tickets for club nights at the reception desk. Taxi booking service from reception. The buffet dinner was absolutely brilliant. Great variety of food, fresh salads and hot options. Breakfast also had a great selection of hot and cold food. There was a good mix of guests, all ages, so hotel was quiet and relaxed, but very close to the sunset bars and west end. I have already recommended this place to family and friends and absolutely would stay here again. Perfect location, facilities and price!
Review 96:There was nothing not to like, it was excellent!
Review 97:I am rather fussy when it comes to staying away from home, but I found the hotel to be extremely clean, with friendly staff, and a nice choice of food. Would definately stay again, and recommend to others.
Review 98:Air conditioning could be more powerful and was a bit noisy when tryingto sleep. Lack of music at the pool meant the car noise from road wasthe background noise.
Review 99:Hotel 1 min away from sunset strip with some good value bars closeby.Staff were okay but not overly enthusiastic we were just anotherguest arriving, we were not really told about any facilities orexcursions but that works for us. Great restaurants nearby(Spanishsquare tapas and a great Peruvian tapas bar which we stumbled across)perfect for catching boat trips to other parts of Ibiza, note that thefrequency of trips away from San Antonio are low compared to Ibiza townhowever some great deals just limited in flexibility and you need to beup and at the harbor, 10-15 min walk away before 11am to get the besttrips or book at least one day before. All in all Gran Sol is perfectfor those who want some rest and relaxation and not looking for anythingtoo luxurious! The pool area is spacious and always loungers available.
Review 100:Only complaint is wifi connection was poor.
Review 101:Great staff. Excellent bar prices. 5 mins walk from sunset strip.Perfect for those on a budget looking for a quiet haven to stay.
Review 102:The wifi was unreliable. It kept dropping and when it was working was quite slow. Luckily I have 3G roaming which proved more reliable.
Review 103:Everything except the wifi
Review 104:nothing to dislike
Review 105:the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. rooms cleaned everyday. rooms have a free safe. in a good location for the sunset strip and nearby nightlife but still far enough away to get a good nights sleep. pool jacuzzi and childrens pool. free use of tennis court and free use of irons, ironing boards and hairdryers. very good value for money.
Review 106:Brilliant hotel very helpful staff, nice pool area to chill, little walk to Kanya and Cafe Mambo, but if you get a sea view room, you have the best view of all, also great leaving facilities, bag storage and showers.
Review 107:WiFi was slow and erratic not working for half of our stay. A little onthe pricey side for room only.
Review 108:Clean, well air-conditioned. Nearby bars, restaurants, beach allin walking distance. Very comfy sunbeds always available. Britishtv channels.
Review 109:Not that close to good beaches
Review 110:Friendly staff, delicious breakfast, clean rooms, sea view balcony, wonderful air conditioning in the room. The value for money is great
Review 111:Nothing negative. The food from the snack bar was sometimes not the best.
Review 112:Rooms are of a high standard, clean towels every day, good size balcony and we could see the sea even tho this isn't a sea front hotel. Good pool too. Friendly helpful staff. Go to the Golden Buddha just round the corner to have dinner & watch the sunset. Magical.
Review 113:I was away with four other girls who wanted a chilled holiday and to experience ibiza's nightlife. Great location, hotel is quite relaxed and quiet yet near enough to the nightlife. Room very clean. Pool area great and plenty of sunbeds
Review 114:Can't really fault the overall stay Stay amazing always friendly especially the bar staff always making sure people are happy Rooms are big and spacious and do what they are there to do Pool quite small but was never too busy in there anyway No rush for sun beds we would go down around 11.30/12 and still plenty left Food very good, lots of choices breakfast brilliant and always a different menu for dinner Overall can't fault hotel and would definitely go back
Review 115:Only that the wifi could have been stronger
Review 116:The location, the cleanliness, extremely helpful staff - would definitely recommend and can't wait to come back!
Review 117:Very pleasant stay at Gran Sol, would highly reccomend! Cleanliness is faultless, pool area really nice. Wish I'd found this hotel 10 years ago!!! 9/10
Review 118:The wifi was poor, and the breakfast and food in the restaurant wasn't excellent either.
Review 119:It was a more than decent hotel, the staff was friendly, and the hotel was clean. The food was cheap and decent enough. The location is excellent, only a 10 min walk from the bus station and Cafe del Mar. Rooms were good, clean, and comfortable.
Review 120:No evening entertainment apart from one evening which didn't bother us but a family may find it useful.
Review 121:Swimming pool and solarium area was good size and during our short stay always plenty of beds available. Also has a relaxing outdoor jacuzzi. Breakfast meals were plentiful and they serve real british bacon and choice of fried and scrambled eggs. Very nice bar serving great cocktails. Upon checkout our flight wasn't until 9pm but we were able to keep our luggage secure in a locker and also had the use of a shower and towel for free which we greatly appreciated after trekking around the old town in 34 degree heat!! Would stay here again. Reception staff are very informative and organised club tickets for us to see Ellie Goulding at Ushuaiwa which was brilliant.
Review 122:WiFi wasn't amazing, but it was free so can't really complain!
Review 123:Good location in San An - away from the rowdiness of West End, yet close enough if some nightlife is on the cards. Also walking distance to the Sunset Strip. Nice pool area & cheap drinks / snacks at the pool bar. Also very friendly & efficient staff & good value for money for Ibiza! If you want to visit Ibiza Town or Playa D'En Bossa both are only a 30 Euro taxi drive so you are never that far from anything.
Review 124:2/8 of us on a girls Holiday stayed at the Gran Sol on a room only basis for 1 week at end of July. We couldn't fault much with this hotel, maybe not suitable for groups of young people as we were told one night to keep the noise down. Although we liked how quiet the hotel was. Wifi was Slightly tempromental se Days but when it's free you can't Complain. Towels & beds changed and room cleaned everyday. All in all excellent hotel, lovely, helpful & very polite staff. I would 100% recommend and return to the Gran Sol.
Review 125:Weak wifi
Review 126:Really nice staff, neat and tidy rooms, new furniture, nice view fromthe balcony (was staying at the 4th floor). I arrived 1 day before mycheck-in and was kindly let to leave my belongings at the luggagestorage room (nice ones - with spacious electronic lockers), take ashower etc. Staff at the reception speak english fluently (or r theyfrom uk?), everybody is friendly and willing to help. And all this - atthe time of my booking - was for almost the lowest price at bookking(single accomodation, 1 week prior to check-in, end of July 2014) Willsdtrongly recommend this hotel to anybody!
Review 127:The service was pathetic.There is no room service for food.The cleaners leave by 3pm and your room wont get cleaned after that,& its highly unlikely yul leave the room before that time as its IBIZA.The receptionist are really rude and know nothing apart from faking a british accent.Wont recommend ever!
Review 128:The breakfast.
Review 129:Rocky beach. Only small area of sand. Very little entertainment.
Review 130:Staff were extremely friendly. Very clean hotel. Excellent choice of food in restaurant. As a solo traveler I felt very comfortable staying here on my own. Quiet area which suited me.
