This is a Hotel in the center.of the city, dont expect it be surrounded by clean streets. Through the hotel on clean and the rooms are also clean and spacious, one day some electrical line was down and the AC was not working, problem solved the next day as well as the water skewer in the shower was clogfed and they did their best to solve it. Breakfast included was exceptional, the restaurant had really good food if you opted to dine in, price is just, based the area and the location of the city you are in. Parking was not an easy task, you had to park a few blocks down a d it was 20 euros per night, if you were lucky enough to fibd a spot in the street then you saved extra bucks there.
Overall I believe is a good hotel to stay near the center, but if you are looking atmore beachy tourist places, then you would have to look at the aouth.
Amazing hotel with great facilities such as swimming pool. Hotel is located a minute away from the beach and there are multiple dining options and coffee shops. Very friendly staff and fabulous cleaning team who is always very nice and helpful.
Très cher pour ce que c'est... Aucun endroit pour la voiture pour l'arrivée et le départ pour débarquer les valises. Assez bruyant la nuit si on est face à la mer car on entend tout le monde sur le boardwalk sur les bancs etc. Aucune machine distributrice donc si besoin de bouteilles d'eau ou autre en soirée ou la nuit, aucune possibilité dans l'hôtel et autour proche. Ils nous disent que le minibar est gratuit ce qui est vrai mais il n'est pas rempli lors du ménage. Même chose pour les cafés. On a donc demandé à la réception un café et il fallait le prendre dehors au grand vent. On a aussi demandé un autre jour si on pouvait nous réchauffer un burger dans une boîte au micro ondes 1 min. Le gars à la réception nous a dit oui mais il est revenu en nous disant que le chef ne voulait pas car cela ne venait pas du restaurant de l'hôtel et que c'était la loi espagnole de salubrité... Aucun micro-ondes disponible nulle part. Les photos montrent des chambres avec balcon mais très peu ont. Très très déçu. La piscine est chaude même en hiver, car peu profonde, mais il vente tellement que nous y sommes allés qu'une fois.
Excellent few days at this lovely hotel in Playa Canteras. Lots of bars and restaurants all along the promenade with a lovely beach too.

I stayed for 11 nights in December in both a superior balcony room (7th floor sea facing), and a classic room without balcony (6th floor also sea facing).
There were some issues with the loss of water supply over the first two days. This was intermittent and outside the control of the hotel, but nonetheless did spoil the experience and cause a lot of aggravation. It's also important to know that the balcony room wasn't really worth paying extra for - I was on the 7th floor, above the swimming pool solarium area. But there was zero sunshine on the balcony for the whole time. I assume you'd get some sunlight in the summer months but if booking in the winter, be aware you might be in the shade the whole time. It did look like the balconies on the very top floor (8th) get lots of sunshine.
The rooftop pool and solarium area is nice but quite small - the pool is very cold and not really worth much. It would be better to have more space for people to lie down - there are only 6 sunbeds so you have to grab these early, before the sun comes round.
If you're not in a superior room but on the front, be aware that there are lots of lively bars and restaurants immediately beneath the floors. I was lucky to get a 6th floor room, away from the bars to avoid noise disturbance.
Also, the water flooded the rest of the bathroom floor in room 709.
Overall, once the issues highlighted above were resolved, I was happy to extend my stay over Christmas and would stay here again.
The hotel is modern, clean, comfortable, and located right on the beautiful beach of Las Palmas. The staff was professional, informative, friendly, and helpful. Everyone spoke excellent English. The hotel has an on-site restaurant serving excellent food with a wide selection of chef-quality choices ranging from Spanish, European and Western dishes. A breakfast buffet is provided with a broad selection of foods ranging from juices and cereals to a broad selection of pastries, tortilla, and waffles. 5-stars. The room was spacious with a view of the ocean and modern, eco-friendly furnishings. Very clean and accommodating. Again 5-stars. There is adjacent parking along the street and a taxi right outside the hotel. There is a supermarket next door and modern Laundromat within a block. A taxi ride to the airport takes about 30 minutes. There is a Hop-on Hop-off stop within a ten minute walk of the hotel. The bus enables site-seeing of Las Palmas' numerous cultural and historic locations. I highly recommend this hotel and will stay here again.
Had a superior sea view large room with modern shower and superb view over the ocean
Breakfast good value and a lot of choice for the cost
Checkin a bit slow even though I did online but staff very good
We arrived early well before check in so were surprised when the friendly receptionist said our room was ready. The hotel has been tastefully renovated and our room which was the cheapest was clean and spacious and modern and very good value for money. Playa Canteras itself is a little run down and dirty so we were glad we were only staying for 1 night post cruise
Excelente ubicación, enfrente tienes la playa y estás en el malecón donde hay variedad de restaurantes, enfrente tienes el supermarket con precios muy accesibles, caminar de la estación de guaguas al hotel me pareció accesible y fácil.
Las instalaciones son muy acogedoras con una limpieza excelente, el precio me pareció muy justo por el servicio y el desayuno incluido, muy rico, vareado y llenador, cabe mencionar que desde la recepción, fueron súper amables y acogibles, sin duda volvería.
It's right by the beach and the promenade. Clean, modern and very pleasant with helpful staff. Only stayed one night as an emergency stay over as our flight was delayed overnight so we didn't get to see a lot of the hotel or the pool, but what we did see was very nice.
We got a room that smelled of smoke and alkohol..
This ruined the whole hotel experience..
We just stayed for one night, if not we would have asked to change room. Not sure if it would be better in another room. Apart from this the hotel is located nicely next to the beachfront.
We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Exe Las Canteras. The location was perfect! We chose sea view rooms and had fantastic views!!! The hotel is right on the promenade in front of the beach and is easy walking distance to hundreds of restaurants, cafes, and bars. The rooms are no frills but very functional. The building is showing signs of wear and tear, but that did not bother us. We were not there to spend the day in our room...our room was just for sleeping, and it was perfect for that!
The whole resort is run down as is the hotel - very tired. Things were broken or not working in our room. The AC didn’t work & as we only had a thin blanket on the bed, we were cold. The floors weren’t often cleaned and the balcony was never cleaned. Black oily smuts from nearby chimney deposited on furniture & onto our clothes. The only way to get Wi-Fi was to stand at our our room door. There were ants in the room and even in the bed. Cockroaches in the bathroom and big ones in the Spa. (This was listed in hotel details but was not free to guests. £9 each for 2hrs). No toiletries in the room when we arrived & after that the bare minimum. We had to buy our own. Often only 1 bath towel was left in vathroom. Reception Staff unhelpful. Cost us £160 to park 1K away. Details said street parking but never any spaces. Traffic a nightmare in Las Palmas. Told us there would be nowhere to eat Christmas Day which turned out untrue as many places open. No Christmas entertainment in hotel or in & around Las Palmas. The weather was warm & beach very good, although red flag up most of the time. We won’t be going back.

Great location right on the boardwalk. Ocean views from the breakfast room and solarium.
Had to change room as it smelled smoke, woke up with ants all over my face pillow and blanket closets to my face approx 60-100 ants. I filled in a legal Claim at the hotel in the morning but they didn’t take it seriously.
