City energy with the Atlantic close by
Forget sprawling resort grounds. HD Acuario Lifestyle puts Las Palmas itself at the centre of your stay. This characterful hotel occupies a historic late-19th-century house beside Santa Catalina Park, one of the city’s best-known gathering spots. Step outside and you’re straight into the restaurants, cafés, shops and everyday buzz of Gran Canaria’s cosmopolitan capital.
Inside, the old-meets-new approach continues. Contemporary, avant-garde interiors give the historic building a fresh personality, while seven different room types mean there’s plenty of choice when it comes to your city base. This is very much a hotel for getting out and exploring and its central location makes that wonderfully easy.
And then there’s Las Canteras. The hotel puts one of Europe’s great urban beaches just a few minutes away, so sightseeing can very quickly become swimming. Spend the morning wandering Las Palmas, squeeze in an afternoon on the sand, then head out for tapas and drinks nearby. City break, beach break? No need to pick a side.
