Our friends recommended this hotel..We went the ftrst week of May 2013, the weather was perfect 25 c average and the hotel as you would like it to be,friendly,very clean and all the staff very helpful.The hotel was a wash with beautiful tropical plants and water features even in the main restaurant, absolutely stunning.The village/ water front was only 10mins walk on a lovely boulevard lined with trees and bushes all in bloom.The shopping area was a fine mixture of very up market stores through to lots of little souveign shops.Then you come to a stunning picture perfect water front full of restaurants and a little ferry port providing trips a long the coast to other resorts.Fresh fish being landed daily from the small fishing fleet based there.We enjoyed every minute of our stay at Cordial Mogan Playa.

We have recently returned from the Cordial Hotel Mogan Playa. The staff were friendly and helpful, the food delicious, the rooms spotlessly clean and spacious and the pools and gardens very well maintained. We were impressed with the hands on approach of the senior managers who were always visible around the hotel. We would definitely recommend this hotel and will be returning in the future.

Un hotel muy tranquilo, con unas instalaciones excelentes y un trato al cliente inmejorable. Tiene dos piscinas de agua dulce, climatizadas, que son fantásticas. La vegetación es muy abundante y bien cuidada, al estilo de los buenos hoteles del Caribe. Comida razonablemente buena dentro de lo que es un buffet (siempre me aburren). Habitaciones cómodas. La única pega es que no se puede ver el mar.

Wow, what a place! Stayed between 2nd May to 9th May 2013. Never been to this side of the island before and was not disappointed. Let me start with the hotel, we stayed at the Coridal Plus venue which for us included full board plus. The design and build of the complex is amazing. Lots of internal plants, trees and waterfalls and the walkways, paths and pool areas are beautifully decorated. Our room was a twin room which had an extra fold up bed - we had to move some of the furniture around to fit the fold-up bed in. The room was clean and nice - bathroom was spacious with a attached hair-dryer. A small 'mini-bar' (but empty) fridge is in the room for personal use. TV has a range of English and foreign channels. Air-Con is part of the room. Rooms were cleaned every day which kept the place nice and clean. Food was fantastic. For breakfast there was a massive range of food on offer even down to the chef making omelettes when requested. Lunch was buffet style with a smaller range of food but dinner was on an epic scale of food and themed foods during the week. For dinner, you have to select one of two sittings - the reason why you do this is so that you are allocated the same table each night at the same time slot - handy to know without debating where to sit and the table is all prepared waiting for you. If you book Full Board Plus then you have an option of free drinks available to consume and this also applies to lunchtime. If you require drinks during the day then you have the choice to pay cash or put the charge onto your final hotel bill so it reduces the need to carry cash with you. We stayed mainly by one pool for the week which clean and not busy. For active people, there is a tennis court, ten-pin bowling alley, pool table, tennis table and some arcade machines. There was entertainment every evening and found that this was a bit hit and miss which normally started at 22.00 and was over by 23.00. When I stayed, there were mainly older couples or very young families which added to the peace and quiet of the area. The harbour is less than 10 mins walks away which is a very pretty place along with a beach and an option of boat trips to other parts of the island. There is a main bus station less than 5 mins away although I didn't use any buses during the week. Would I go back again? You bet I would - as mentioned, a fabulous place, wonderful staff and a beautiful location of the island. Happy to answer any questions....

Séjour en Junior Suite, au calme, et avec beaucoup de place. Environnements de jardins très agréable. Petits déjeuners dans un bâtiment séparé, là aussi pour les JS. Bons buffets, pas trop de bousculade. La plage est sans plus, la petite station Puerto Mogan est à taille humaine, mais manque un peu d'authenticité (un peu surfait). Cela reste quand même bien agréable à côté des grosses stations qu'on peut trouver aux Canaries. Les piscines sont chauffées, ce qui n'est pas le cas dans tous les hotels...

Just returned from our EIGHTH visit to the Cordial Mogan Playa and already planning the ninth! What a gem of a hotel this is. All the staff are so friendly and accommodating - they really make you feel welcome and can't do enough to make you comfortable - from the general manager to the gardeners, it's like one big family! We've tried lots of other four star hotels in many different locations but none of them come even close to this one. For a relaxing, chilling-out holiday with or without children, I would cerainly recommend the Cordial Mogan Playa.

We travelled here on a first family holiday with a 22m old. It was quite superb. While we have some suggestions these are really to add to the experience, not things that took away from it. The hotel is a lovely place, with extensive grounds and although was, we were told, nearly full to capacity didnt feel crowded. The three pools (2 large and one kiddies) were warm and well maintained, and there was a good presence of staff around. the grounds are extensively landscaped with lots of arid region plants, mostly with labels. There are a good selection of restaurants and bars, and again not crowded. Puerto Mogan is a couple of hundred meters away via a mostly pedestrianised surface, good for a buggy! Nice beach and all the trimmings, a nice marina also with astoundingly clear water. We were on half board so ate each evening in the hotel at the buffet. No complaints, lots of food and all good to above (veggies so so but...) with different themed meats and fish most nights. Over a week you couldnt really tire. A fantastic breakfast buffet. One thing I will say is the staff were astoundingly nice to all, and mostly so to any kids we saw them interacting with (including ours). Really nice, pleasant and warm and very very obliging. We had a lovely room, not very large but perfectly ok for a week, with a small patio area. Main suggestions to make this even better is perhaps some more toddler/wobbler toys in the children club and to perhaps create a botanic trail perhaps with a selfguided tour. The gardens are wonderful but if your like us you look and wonder "What is that " a lot...

El Hotel Cordial como bien su nombre indica se caracteriza por la gentileza de su personal y la máxima atención al cliente, y el clima donde se ubica este hotel también hace referencia a su nombre. La existencia de hoteles superiores o iguales en categorías de estrellas en la isla de Gran Canaria no hay diferencia quien se lleva el mayor galardón. Sin duda en cuestión de hospitalidad, limpieza interior y exterior, entorno y alimentación, el Hotel Cordial es el mejor hotel en Gran Canaria para pasarlo en familia, pareja, amigos, bien por unos días o largas estancias, dado a su calidad-precio.

My husband and I have only ever once returned for a stay at the same hotel abroad over the years, as there are so many wonderful places to visit in the world. This will change, at least for our Spring holidays, from now on! After the 'non summer' of 2012, followed by the long and miserably wet and cold start to 2013, we desperately decided to seek some sun, but not to a 'long haul' destination. What a gem we happened upon in the shape of the Mogan Playa. All the positives commented upon on Tripadvisor, relating to this lovely hotel, are exact. Gardens, rooms, public areas, staff all tip top. We were totally impressed by the choice and quality of the food at both breakfast and dinner buffets and I should like to comment in particular on the layout of the 'food stations'. Room to browse before choosing and space aplenty to serve yourself. What a joy after the jostling RIUesque 'school dinner lineups' we have experienced at buffet meals in the past. Altogether a holiday to be repeated next spring. Thank you Mogan Playa!

We expected a good 4 star hotel experience. We got a much better than expected, excellent value for money holiday. The room was clean and serviced well, the food was amazing in its range of choice, quality and presentation and the grounds are stunning. Although the hotel was busy it never felt crowded because of the well laid out accommodation blocks and the outdoor facilities. Most staff were friendly and helpful and enhanced the holiday experience. Not only that the hotel is a very short walk to a beautiful, very attractive village and harbour/port area. definitely a place to return to, which is not something we often do!

This excellent four star hotel is a definite cut above most other hotels in this category and delivers outstanding value and wonderful hospitality. The lush gardens are a special treat and there are many amenities including two huge very warm pools. The rooms are well maintained, very comfortable and well equipped. The staff are kind and well trained and do everything they can to help. There is a good balance of all ages and families are well catered for, although it is not a noisy hotel and different activities are sensitively arranged to ensure nobody is disturbed and there is something for everyone. The breakfast is excellent and there is a huge variety of good quality food. The evening food is buffet style in the main restaurant, although there is an a la carte restaurant which I did not try. The dinner was plentiful and appetising. You can walk down to the harbour front in a few minutes and there are pretty bars and restaurants and a clean safe beach. It is not spoilt and there is almost no large scale development which adds to its charm. Previously the downside of that was that Mogan was only reached by a windy road and the journey from the airport was over an hour. Now it is well under the hour, thanks to a new motorway that delivers you within a two or three miles of the door.

El hotel es muy bonito y tranquilo, la gente que trabaja allí muy amables todos y te solucionan cualquier incidencia al momento. La comida tanto en el desayuno como la cena de muy buena calidad. La animación para los niños muy buena. Estoy acostumbrado a ir a los resorts del Caribe y este hotel lo único que tiene que envidiar de estos es la temperatura del agua de la playa. Repetiré seguro

We are currently at the Cordial hotel in Puerto Morgan. Situated a short walk to a sheltered sandy beach (golden sand) and in a valley with volcanic cliffs either side, the hotel is packed with friendly, helpful staff. Food is plentiful, high quality and lots of choice. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and immaculately cleaned (lots of staff) they will change the sheets daily if you really want them to. The hotel is apparently full but it doesn't feel like it, there are lots of poolside beds and no shortage of them, buffet :-)buffet style meals are held in two sittings, no problem with queues or choices not available. An a la carte restaurant is available. Around the pools are fantastic botanical gardens which you can explore down towards the beach. The port of Mogan is small but many beach side bars and cafes with sea food the speciality. A large beer is 2 euro and coffee and cake 3 euro. There is evening entertainment, not the most exciting and last nights would not have won x factor but the G and T was excellent. I can't fault this place, there are all ages but it is not noisy, rowdy or disruptive. Great weather, lovely clean pools and all the food and drink you could want. No real night life so if its clubbing you want then look elsewhere. Many people appear to be return visitors, we will probably join them.

J'ai passé une semaine de rêve avec mon fils de 2 ans et demi la dernière semaine du mois d'aout 2012 dans cet hotel fabuleux,entre mer et montagne!Le cadre est idylique,35 degrés toute la semaine,une jolie chambre avec télé lecteur dvd,wifi gratuit dans tout l'hotel y compris les chambres,belle salle de bain ,grande armoire de rangement et un petit jardin avec vue sur la piscine d'un côté et montagne de l'autre! Hotel très beau ,personnel adorable,aussi bien à la reception ,qu'au restaurant,les femmes de chambres adorables,tout le monde au petit soin pour vous!Il faut simplement parler anglais /allemand ou espagnol bien sûr car le français est très peu parlé,ça c'est pareil partout aux Canaries! Tout près de l'hotel il y a un supermarché et à environ 500 mètres se trouve Puerto de Mogan,la mer,la marina,des boutiques et des restos les uns après les autres! Ideal pour les familles avec de jeunes enfants,la mer calme sans vagues peu profonde,des aires de jeux un peu partout ,des restos délicieux à petits prix ,pleins de boutiques souvenirs et accessoires de plage et la marina somptueuse ,possibilité de prendre le bateau pour quelques euros à peine pour vous rendre dans les villes voisines Puerto Rico,Arguilegin....mon fils a adoré! Hotel de rêve parsemé dans un immense parc subtropical ,le plus bel hotel que j'ai vu en Europe et j'en ai visité pas mal voyageant régulièrement,2 piscines somptueuses,une calme pour les personnes plus agées cherchant le calme et une plus animée idéale famille ,et de magnifiques jaccuzzis à coté des piscines,mon fils est tombé sous leur charme voulant passer tout son temps dans les bulles! Animation le soir jusqu'à 23h puis hotel très calme la nuit puisque fréquenté essentiellement par des personnes avec jeunes enfants et des personnes retraitées donc pas de cris hurlements ou autres au milieu de la nuit,très appréciable de pouvoir dormir tranquilement! Je recommande ce sompteux hotel à tous ceux qui recherchent le calme ,le soleil la mer dans un endroit attipique et très pittoresque dans un hotel niché dans un jardin luxuriant vraiment sublime! Enfin chambre de courtoisie à disposition lorsque vous quittez l'hotel dans l'après midi et que vous devez liberer la chambre à midi,super appréciable lorsque vous voyager avec de jeunes enfants.... Rien à redire ce fut une semaine de bonheur pour moi et mon petit garçon et même presque 1 an plus tard,toujours pleins de merveilleux souvenirs plein la tête et les albums photos...

From the moment we got into the hotel-arranged taxi, a luxury Merc limo, at the airport, we thought it was going to be good! Thirty-five minutes later, as we checked in, with a complimentary glass of bubbly in our hands, we thought, "It's getting better!" When we were taken to our room and saw the facilities, we thought it couldn't get much better, until we went for lunch! The variety on offer at the buffet astonished us, and the house wine was very palatable after a long journey. At dinner, Christian, the excellent Public Relations Manager, greeted us warmly and showed us to a charmingly located table. The dinner buffet even exceeded the expectations set by lunch!The food was better than at any other hotel we have visited on mainland Spain or the other Canary Islands. We enjoyed a French appetizer, a Chinese starter, an Indian main course and a Spanish dessert. In fact, we have got to go back for at least a month to sample everything that was on offer! I was able to practise my Spanish with our wonderful cleaning lady Ana-Maria, and in fact all the staff could not do enough to make our stay happy and comfortable. I also saved on perfume - the grounds smell so delicious because of the wonderful flowers and plants I decided I just couldn't compete! Finally, I must mention the complimentary wine and fruit left in the room on my birthday. We had a fantastic time. Thank you so much - see you again soon!

After reading numerous reviews and seeing such a good rating, I decided to book it for my wife and I for a one week break in April to see if it really is true what everyone is saying.I can report it is true, We were blown away with this Hotel from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. We were greeted with a glass of Cava at a very welcoming reception our bags were taken to our room and from then on the service and quality did not stop until we left. The restaraunt is incredable I have never seen such a choice of foods for breakfast and dinner,very high quality, we were invited to a mangers champagne reception with live canarian music one evening where during his speech to all guests he declared it is of most importance to them that no guest should want for anything and should be totally satisfied, I have never seen this openly declared at a hotel. Will certainly go back here again and would certainly reccommend to anyone.

This is only the second time that my husband and I have written a review but thought it really worthwhile. We stayed at the cordial mogan player for a week from the 13th April and had a throughly lovely holiday. We have travelled a lot and at this time of year just appreciate a relaxing week in the sunshine. Culture and sightseeing are not on the agenda, but we enjoyed a week of excellent service from lovely hardworking staff always helpful and seeming to enjoy the jobs that that they do. Beautifully kept gardens and pools and considering the number of people staying in the hotel the food was perfectly good! Always lots,of choice and constantly replenished. Would recommend this hotel and would certainly return.

My sister and i stayed at the hotel in April, well what can i say the hotel was wonderful, reception staff, the waiters and all the staff are so very friendly nothing was to much trouble, food was amazing my sister and i are gluten and dairy free it wasn't an issue. If i was going to be picky there could have been more choice for dessert for us.......but i suppose thats are fault we never let the hotel know before we arrived. Breakfast was fantastic so much choice. The grounds were beautifully maintained. The pool area was lovely everything about the hotel was fantastic. We can't to go go back there again.

Where to start? I first visited the enchanting Puerto De Mogan on business in 1995 when all that existed was the old village, the marina (little Venice) and a very rocky beach to the left of the inlet. Subsequent years have seen some considerable development but not to the detriment of the locality which in my opinion has retained a charm that makes it among the best resorts in the Canaries. Furthermore the recently completed motorway link has reduced the 1½ hour travelling time to 30 minutes which is in itself a major bonus. So what of the Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa where I have just returned from ten days of sheer bliss? I have previously rated only two other 4* hotels (St George in Paphos & Grand Hotel Nastro Azzurro, Sorrento) as outstanding and this hotel is up there with them and probably the best of all. I have no desire to go anywhere else in the Canaries now. Initially I struggled to understand the official rating that has been allocated (4*+) as it had all the hallmarks of a quality five star but having visited two 5* establishments in Melonoras during our stay I can understand the differentisl in terms of building facilities, but nothing else. The quality and standard of this hotel can be evidenced by it’s inclusion in Thomson’s 2013 summer A La Carte programme. Rooms I contacted the hotel prior to travel requesting a quiet, top floor room with afternoon sunshine if at all possible. I was allocated a superb room with two French windows, one opening onto a Juliet balcony and another onto a private terrace housing a table and chairs together with two sun loungers. The room itself was spacious with a flat screen TV that received Sky news, BBC1 & BBC2. Unique to the Canaries from my experience. There was a fridge to keep the personal drinks supply cold and a safe deposit box somewhat surprisingly charged out at €2 per day but “c’est la vie”. Needless to say the room was serviced spotlessly on a daily basis and nothing was too much trouble for the maid who despite limited English was always friendly and polite. Facilities The architect responsible for the building of the hotel in my opinion deserves an award for taste and inventiveness. Built into the hillside of the Mogan Valley the design has incorporated a huge Atrium which serves as the fulcrum of the main reception building and which houses a central piano bar positioned above the restaurant and night club which appear to have been cut into the rock face. The restaurant has a conservatory extension surrounded by water and a waterfall and an area within the atrium which gives the appearance of eating in a tropical garden. The extensive site incorporates residential buildings, waterfalls, streams, an ancient archaeological site, two swimming pools, Spa and gardens that resemble a botanical nursery with all the plants identified by labels. Located in the grounds is a small chapel ideally suited to wedding planning with a small piazza outside for additional seating and at the opposite end is a restaurant capable of housing the social reception. Dining I cannot comment on the two restaurants providing lunchtime dining facilities and located near the swimming pools as we stayed on a half board basis and after breakfast, which is served until 10am, lunch was not a requirement. Evening meals are taken in the main buffet restaurant which accommodates two sittings during the times 6pm-7.30pm and 8.30pm-10pm which ensures the provision of fresh food on both sittings. Guests on a half board basis are able to exchange the evening meal for lunch if desired. I have read criticism of the catering by previous contributors and quite frankly cannot believe that anyone could not find any suitable choices from the huge variety of food on offer. On a daily basis the restaurant offers two soups, a wide range and variety of salad dishes, a carvery offering three meats, a griddle producing three fish varieties and a wide range of other dishes served in sources or stir fried. A speciality table serves a daily range of food from different nations which included by way of example fresh Japanese Sushi and Mexican Enchiladas. Needles to say the wide range of main courses are complemented by an equally wide range of deserts. All food was well prepared, served hot and very edible. Drinks are quite expensive in comparison to local bars but not excessive to general hotel prices. As an alternative to the buffet there is the Los Guayres a la carte restaurant located above the main buffet which boasts some prominent gourmet credentials in terms of the chef, the menu offered and the quality of food served. Residents on half board are allowed a €15per person deduction from the final bill. A glass of champagne awaited our arrival at our table as we dined alfresco on a Saturday evening in extremely warm temperatures and the whole experience was excellent. The maître d’hôtel took our order, recommended a quality Rioja that was not on the wine list and attended to every need with the support of his waiting staff. We chose the €42 six course taster menu for what was a special occasion and every course was presented to the highest of standards and tasted thoroughly delicious. I have no hesitation in saying that it lived up to all its self professed platitudes. If Michelin stars were awarded in Gran Canaria I would anticipate this restaurant would be suitably rewarded. Entertainment Not the strongest section of the facilities on offer with some quite basic artistes but they helped to pass an hour on as the very substantial dinner digested. Conclusion I apologise to readers for the length of this review but a hotel of this quality deserves to be properly reflected. If this hotel continues to operate as at present or even continues to develop it cannot fail but to go from strength to strength. It is certainly the Cordial group flagship and having stayed at the Cordial Golf Plaza in Tenerife I have no hesitation in saying that there is no comparison. I cannot wait to return and I am currently exploring the possibility of spending Christmas there this year.

We are just back from an idyllic week in this fabulous hotel.. I can only echo the last few reviews.. Hotel is faultless.. Lots of lush greenery everywhere.. Food is beautiful and accounts for all tastes, be as healthy or as naughty as you like (!) I stayed here with my husband and 3yo son and my 70+ parents and all had a ball, if it is a sun drenched week of fab food and lots of bits to do for all you could not do better. Special mention must go to Claudia and Carlos in kiddies club.. Our son Hugo adored the kiddie disco every night,super fun! I cannot imagine anyone having a bad word to say about this hotel.. We will definitely return. Staff were just amazing, lots of friendly Germans and French staying same time as us which to me was a great sign! ;) all had the same impression as us. The only advice I would have is regarding the shuttle taxi in case you book one ( like we did with a travel package)... It is approx 35 mins by motorway to this resort from airport (which we found out on our return!!) the transfer we booked and paid for took approx 3 hours whilst it dropped off people from other flights .. Up and down hills.. Reversing in and out of car parks.. Dropping off 1/2 people in other resorts.. A bit of a nightmare with a tired 3yo and elderly parents. My advice.. Pay for a taxi!! ;)

Nydelig hotel.Flott hage.Fine bassengområder.Passe langt fra sentrum. Maten kan anbefales. Vi var heldig med plassering av rommet, men tror det ville vært bra uansett. Kommer veldig gjerne tilbake.....

We enjoyed our visit to this fabulous hotel so much last year that we decided to return. We were not disappointed. From the friendly 'champagne' check in greeting to the final check out it was a dream holiday. A special mention must be made to Christian - Public Relations Manager - his assistant Alexandria and our waiter Patricio Eduardo who all contributed to making our stay such a pleasant experience.The cleanliness throughout was exceptional - there always seemed to be someone cleaning something somewhere, whether it be in the rooms, gardens, pool, or atrium. I do not know how some trip advisors can criticise the food. The breakfast was superb with such a variety - even sparkling wine was available. The evening meal was even better. Everyday there was something different. There was always a choice of fish (sea bass, hake, sole and swordfish to name but a few). There was a choice of 2 soups, meats (entrecote, fillet beef, lamb, pork, veal, duck and even rabbit) and some superb sweets, pastries and ice creams. The chocolate fountain was to die for. They had themed nights with chinese and mexican foods. Even my mother-in-law ate heartily and that is the best compliment the restaurant could ever have. The new spa was well worth a visit even though it was not cheap. The only criticism I could find, even though it did not directly impact on our group, was that the 'no reserving sun loungers' rule was not observed and as far as i could see not enforced (but if truth be known I did my bit by swapping a few towels around). To summarise:- This hotel has everything. It is ideal for all ages. It has activities for both children and adults. The food has to be seen to be believed. The rooms are spacious and cleaned daily. The balconies can take 6 chairs and 3 round tables. The port is about a 10 minute saunter away and flat which was ideal for the elderly. There is a supermarket only 2 minutes away. The bus station is about a 5 minutes walk. The cabaret / entertainment was a bit hit and miss but we did see one of the best groups for a long while singing motown songs of the 70's. All in all an excellent experience. A must try place.

Having already discovered Mogan, probably the most picturesque resort in the Canaries , we were delighted to see the building of the Cordial Mogan Playa and have now stayed there for the last 7 years, mainly as a couple but also with friends and on one occassion with our grown up children and grandchildren. Perfect for each scenario. Beautiful hotel, great staff, pretty gardens,wonderful location and of course loads of sunshine !Can't fault it, we'll be back next year and hopefully for many more.

Schönes Hotel. Der Service ist sehr gut und die Zimmer sind sauber und angenehm. Das Essen war sehr gut und vor allem das Frühstücksbuffett war sehr groß! Dazu liegt das Hotel sehr nah zum Strand und dort sind viele Restaurants in denen man auch einen gemütlichen Abend verbringen kann. Das Hotel ist zu empfehlen!

We've stayed in a lot of Spanish hotels and this was by far the best. I really don't know why it isn't a 5-star. The staff were great, the food was brilliant and so much choice each day at the buffet that the only problem was choosing what to have. The whole place was kept very clean and the gardens were lovely and extremely well kept. Our room was perfect, we even had enough wardrobe space and that takes a lot of doing. Playa de Mogan must be the best place to stay in Gran Canaria - away from all the endless built-up hotels and apartments in some other parts of this beautiful island. We wouldn't hesitate to go back because we know how good it will be. It could NOT be faulted.

Hotellet ligger ca.5min fra stranden og den nydelige havnen. Hotellet består av mange bygninger,så hvor man havner kan bety mye for trifselen. Bygningene liggeri et stort annlegg,med mye trær og blomster.Bare hagen er vert et bessøk. I hagen er der flere bassenger,og et stort basseng,med kunstig oppbygd sandstrand. Egne basseng for barn.Der er også en avdeling med forskjellige kaktusser utrolig mange forskjellige arter.Om jeg skal finne noe på minussiden,så kan vegen til spisesalen bli lang om man har vasker med føttene.Vi bodde der i 14 dager og trivdes godt. Maten var allsidig og det var meget å velge i. Topp betjening over alt.Høfflige og hjelpsomme. Rent og pent,med håndkle etter behov,både til innendørs og utendørs behov. Egen lunsjrestaurant i hagen(Innendørs og Utendørs servering) Dette hotellet kan trykt annbefales.

This is a lovely 4 star hotel. Customer service – excellent. Friendly, English speaking, very accommodating. Rooms – comfortable, clean, spacious. I believe some other Tripadvisors have advised requesting a sea-view. I didn’t have this luxury, but was perfectly comfortable in my room (for the little time I spent there). Spa – beautiful, relaxing, though expensive. If you want a basic mani/pedi – there are plenty of local salons which are much much cheaper. Swimming pools – lovely. However be warned, although it is documented in the hotel brochure that reserving sun loungers is not allowed, I observed many people doing this. People put their towels down the night before, came down before breakfast and swapped them for clean towels, disappeared off then reappeared around 11am. Some people therefore secured the best spots at the pool for their entire stay. There are some other sun loungers around in sunny places, but I did find it annoying. Food – excellent buffet breakfast. Half-board meant that there was a buffet evening meal. If you want the earlier setting, you need to specify this clearly early on, maybe prior to arrival, as this sitting seemed to be the most popular. I was also informed that if you preferred to have lunch, this was possible too. However my experience that the breakfast was so plentiful, and you could take a “doggy bag” of fruit and pastries, so you don’t really need lunch if you are having your evening meal in the hotel. I had no complaints about the food, unlike some other Tripadvisors. Activities – there are numerous sporting activities which, as far I could tell from the hotel brochure, are free. I didn’t get involved in many of these, but the aquagym looked fun. Beach – 5 minute walk away. Sun loungers for hire. A lovely walk in the evening to Puerto de Mogan. Lots of things to see and do. I particularly enjoyed watching locals playing dominoes. Entertainment – I thought this was great despite some of the other comments of Tripadvisors. Family-friendly, good fun. Supermarket – 2 minute walk away. I would recommend stocking up on water and soft drinks here. Summary – fantastic relaxing family-friendly hotel.

We visited this hotel in January, and were so impressed that we decided to visit again. Prior to arriving, we e mailed to ask for the same room. On arrival, this request had been obliged and we were pleased to find flowers, fruit and wine in our room. The overall service at this hotel really is first class, and although Mogan offers a wealth of food and tranquility, if you wanted a truly lazy & relaxing break, you wouldn't need to leave the hotel because nothing appears to be too much trouble for the staff. The simple touches, such as every member of staff saying hello, or good morning, the restaurant manager showing care about the service provided, and the constant cleaning are just some of the things that make this place so relaxing. We enjoyed this stay even more than the first and I'd whole heartedly recommend a visit to anyone.

Es waren traumhaft schöne Tage in diesem wunderschönen Hotel. Unsere Vorstellungen wurden um vieles übertroffen. Die gesamte Hotelführung steht unter einem sehr guten Stern. Beim nächsten guten Angebot werden wir sofort wieder buchen. Diesmal waren es nur 7 Tage zum testen, das nächste mal sind es mindestens 2 Wochen. Wir freuen uns jetzt schon drauf.

Returned here with my husband after visiting twice with girl friends. He is not a mad keen sun bathing person - however he ( and I ) had a great holiday. The staff are exceptionally helpful and polite and the hotel continues to be kept lovely and clean - with beautiful plants and flowers. The food is lovely - and the choice is vast. We went on some walks over the cove - by the banana plantation. Check it out on Google Earth if you are feeling energetic. If you go with girlfriends - stay on your lounger and drink Sangria - you can press a little buzzer and the waiting staff come to your lounger .

This was our third time back to the hotel. Yet again it was faultless. The staff continue to be so helpful and friendly, the accommodation is kept to a very high standard and I can't recommend it enough. Well worth going on the hotel arranged hotel tour as it takes you behind the scenes of the hotel and you can see how it all runs. Thank you Cordial playa again. We will be back!

Vi boede i en fantastisk junior suite. Hotellet har top service, et fantastisk stort udvalg ved morgenbuffeten, og de dejligste udenomsarealer man kan få. Alt er i tiptop stand, og alle er søde og hjælpsomme. Det er 5 gang vi besøger dette fantastiske hotel i den kønneste by på Gran Canaria

We have just returned from our second trip to this excellent hotel. The rooms are spacious and have the facilities that you would expect. I saw a previous review that said that the rooms would have been perfect if there had been tea making facilities; If you ask at reception they will give you a kettle and you have a supermarket next door to the hotel to buy milk etc . The gardens to the hotel are a real feature as is the bird song which you often hear as you walk through them. Given that this is quite a large hotel, the food is to a high standard, especially if you pick the freshly cooked meat and fish dishes. The wine list, which is mainly Spanish is reasonably broad and not bad value. There is a wide range of activities on offer, including various classes, such as Pilates and yoga with a truly excellent instructor, Sarah. There is also some very good cycling on offer, both on road and mountain biking with a local specialist company, In Motion,offering very good guided tours or rental, as you wish. There are some very high end bikes available and as challenging routes as you could wish for. A review would not be a review without one whinge and here that is the high cost of bottled water which is all that is available in the evening at the dinner table but this is a minor irritation.

The motorway has now been extended right through the mountain into Mogan so expect your transfer to be about 35 minutes. What a great start to your holiday. The hotel is as good as ever and one small example illustrates their focus on customer care. During our first breakfast we overheard a Manager having a conversation with a German couple with a small child( both speaking in fluent english I might add!) regarding their child's need for a glutten free diet. It was clear that the Hotel were making serious efforts to accomodate this dietary need and my wife and I could not fail to be impressed by the Manager's helpful attitude. This is the kind of ethos embedded in the organisation. We also noted that that management and staff work alongside eachother in a mutually supportive way which was also impressive. I am not going to add much to the usual list of praises for this brilliant hotel, but I would strongly recommend you try the taster menu at the A La Carte restaurant. Both the service and the food were first class. Mogan continues to be a chilled out and classy resort so my advice, yet again to those of you who have yet to try to Cordial Playa, is simple. Book it! ( Try Monarch for the rooms, we saved at least £70 per person and their were 6 of us travelling) We will make it a 4th visit next year without a doubt.

I am writing this review as I sit in the spa on our last day at the Hotel Cordial Playa. (Using free wifi to do so which works very well everywhere) Like most of the other reviews on here I have to say this really is a gem of a place; The hotel is very clean and welcoming, after arriving here last Saturday afternoon we were welcomed at reception by some very gentle and polite staff who also gave us the customary glass of Cava which was needed after flying Ryanair to get there (sure you all know what I mean if you have had to use the terrible airline). After asking if I could buy a bottle of the Cava, as we had not come all inclusive, they said yes it was 14 euros and once I had agreed to pay they gave it to us for free, suffice to say this set the tone for how good this hotel is! I can recommend this hotel to couples, family's, elders and more as really works well for all from what I can see, we do not have children but they seem very well catered for with various activities. The staff here really make it what it is as they cannot do enough for you, they do not seem to have the word no in their vocab! The food is great, plenty of choice and, while we normally would not go for this 'food hall' type of holiday, it has been really good although we have said when returning we would probably choose B&B (instead of H/B) as we would like to get to the port more and experience different restaurants. Must mention the climate here if you have not been to Gran Canaria before, it's perfect, lovely and hot during the day yet cool enough at night to sleep. Hope this helps.

We are currently staying here with a family of 6 all under 11. I felt it necessary to put a review on ASAP as this has got to be one of he best Hotels and destinations we have ever been to weve dine it all Sandals carribean dubai the lot.. and will be returning in winter. There are really no faults and nothing but great thoughts here. The location the staff the food the pools even other holiday makers are nice people I think this is a real "secret " I'm happy Travel Republic advertise this gem as I would not have found it otherwise. I recommend if you can afford to book "Full Board Plus" we haven't had to spend a penny since arriving all drinks are named eg Pepsi in bottle Shweppes and bottled tropical lager is spot on. The house wines are very good we personally think the Rose is the best. If your booking a holiday Look no further Go For It you will want to return again and again..

Voici un très bon hôtel, assez luxueux (sauf détails) mais en même temps sans prétention. Personnel charmant (en général) et prompt à satisfaire nos demandes. La station de Puerto Mogan est vraiment adorable, nichée dans une petite crique, la mer est belle, plein de bons restaurants bordent le bord de mer... L'hôtel permet aussi de profiter de deux belles piscines, une plus pour le plaisir des enfants, l'autre plus pour les séniors qui souhaitent nager tranquilles... avec des jacuzzi, des cours d'aquagym, yoga, etc. Mini disco super sympa pour les petits loulous le soir, spa pour les mamans, parfait ! La demi-pension est correcte, grand et riche buffet - sans surprise, pas de grande gastronomie, mais produits frais et bons. De plus, pour notre fille intolérante au gluten, c'était très bien, pan cakes ou céréales adaptés le matin, suffisamment de plats sans gluten ou même des pâtes sur demande.... A recommander !

My husband and I stayed for 1 week for our honeymoon at Cordial Mogan Playa. The hotel was just great and beautiful. We had an amazing week! Thanks. This hotel have really all what you need! Beautiful swiming pool area and fantastic garden to relax and have fun! A lot of fun activities all the time, such as aqua gym with instruktor Sara (my favorite), water polo, fitness, yoga, football, cocktail games etc. The hotel offered fun things to do all the time. In the evening they had a mixed variety of entertainment and music acts. The breakfast buffett every morning was great, as was the dinner buffett which we tried a couple of days. Everything with the hotel invites you to relax, enjoy your holiday and participate in fun activities. Thank you Cordial Mogan Playa!

We came home to Gotland,Sweden this week from our 9th stay at Cordial Mogan Playa.14 days with excellent food and the sun will hopefully help us through the snowy and cold spring here. We will be back in November together with our son and his family!

Ma femme et moi avons passé une semaine (du 30 mars au 6 avril) dans ce bel hôtel. Les chambres (standards) sont propres, le buffet de nourriture est de qualité et varié. Il y a quelques animations durant la journée (surtout pour les enfants). Spéciale dédicace à Sara et William que nous avons appréciés. Les animation du soir ne nous ont par contre pas convaincues. Notre objectif était toutefois de nous reposer et de profiter du soleil. Les piscines et les jardins sont très biens. Bref, je recommande cet hôtel. On trouve certes moins cher sur l'île, mais la qualité et les services étaient au rendez-vous.

I read a lot of these reviews before we decided to book the Cordial Mogan Playa, definitely wasn't dissapointed, lived up to our expectations and more. Would like to make this an annual trip to this hotel and to Mogan. If there was tea & coffee making facilities in the rooms, this would have made it perfect. Thanks again to all the staff for making this holiday so enjoyable

Just back from The Cordial Playa Mogan, Had a wonderful 2 weeks in the sun. The Hotel is superb. Staff very friendly. Food excellent, delicious fresh fish, Lobster and prawns on Friday nights. The gardens surrounding the hotel are a gardeners paradise. Two large swimming pools with well laid out sun bathing areas, comfortable sun loungers excellent pool bars. 5 minute walk to port and restaurents. Can't wait to go back. Joe

Спокойное место с бассейнами, водопадами, мини ботаническим садом и детскими площадками. Есть детские группы, где можно оставить ребенка. Море и магазины рядом. Апартаменты на любой карман. От комнаты в многоэтажке, до маленьких домиков. Сам город тоже спокойный и семейный.

We stayed at the hotel in late May with children. The four stars are well deserved. The hotel has nice gardens and a good pool area with a children's pool and a shallow area in the main pools. All the services were working (shop, bars, kids club etc.). The restaurants were good with a big selection at the buffets. The standard of food served was good throughout and some excellent local dishes had been prepared. The age clientele was mixed, but perhaps a bit older than in the more lively parts of Gran Canaria. The walk to the beach is short and the beach itself is as nice as it looks in the pictures. It is shallow and sheltered and suitable for children. The Puerto Morgan village an marina are picturesque with many good restaurants and relatively few tacky shops. We will be back there.

We have just come back from a fabulous holiday in the Cordial Mogan Playa. Everything was lovely and very good quality from the staff to the rooms to the gardens, pools and the food in the restaurant. The breakfast buffet was amazing with everything you can think of. The evening buffet was very good too with sole, swordfish and many other lovely things being cooked to order in front of you. The staff were very friendly and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The tips on here for requesting a room helped as we were given what we asked for; a high floor with sun in the afternoon. This was Ok at this time of year, just though, as the terrace would become unbearable with no shade on it. The cocktails and drinks at the bar are very reasonably priced which enabled us to enjoy them!! We would recommend this hotel and we will definitely be going back there next year.

Siamo stati al Cordial Playa con nostra figlia piccola, la prima settimana di marzo 2013. Il tempo non è stato molto bello, infatti abbiamo avuto un giorno di pioggia ed uno di tempo variabile. Per fortuna che abbiamo scelto questo hotel che è davvero accogliente e ti fa stare anche in una giornata senza sole! È posizionato in uno dei posti piu belli del sud della isola, un grazioso paesino con porto e spiaggia che si raggiungono in cinque minuti di cammino lungo una passeggiata pedonale. Nel paese ci sono buoni ristoranti. La spiaggia è pulita e ben organizzata con negozie e ristoranti vicini. Il mare nonostante vicino al paese e chiuso dai moli del porto è pulito, anche se con il fondale di sabbia scura. La struttura è grande ma si ha sempre la sensazione di essere in un posto riservato e tranquillo. Il giardino gropicale è curatissimo e da solo vale una visita. Il personale è molto professionale ed estremamente cortese. La camera è abbastanza spaziosa, arredata con gusto e sempre pulita, tutte hanno terrazzo o giardino. La maggior parte delle stanze affaccia sugli splendidi giardini in cui si sono due piscine magnifiche, calde e pulitissime. La sala ristorante è ampia, affaccia su un laghetto con piante e rocce, il tavolo rimane lo stesso per tutta la settimana. Il primo giorno si sceglie il turno delle 18 o delle 20.30 per la cena. Contesto informale ma comunque distinto per la cena. Buona la qualita del cibo, soprattutto di carni e vedure. La clientela è totalmente nord europea, rarissimi gli italiani, prevalentemente su di età. Comunque si trova anche qualche famiglia e d è disponibile un servizio di baby club con pochi bimbi ben seguiti e la baby dance a ssre alterne. Il silenzio e la quiete sono i punti di forza. Insomma, consigliato cento volte.

This is our second holiday at this hotel and we had a wonderful two weeks in February. Everything is just perfect - the rooms are comfortable and clean and the grounds and gardens are so quiet and beautifully maintained.The staff are all so very welcoming and helpful and nothing is too much trouble from senior management to junior waiters. Breakfasts can be a little overwhelming when everyone arrives at the same time and is trying to find a table, however a member of staff will soon help you out. We spent most of our days at the beach which is only 10 minutes walk along a very pleasant pedestrian area and were blessed with wall to wall sunshine every day which can't be bad! We plan to return again next year.

We've just returned from another great week at the hotel during Feb half term . Can't really add anything new , would just wholeheartedly recommend !! Planning to return at new year - third visit in 22 months should say it all !!

Vi åkte i slutet av Februari med 9 personer och hade stora förväntningar eftersom vi redan hade varit där en gång, Rummet låg precis mellan de två poolområderna, och var väldigt fint med hall, sovrum, badrum och egen balkong, maten var väldigt bra, speciellt frukosten, i alla gångar mellan husen och poolerna var det en trädgård med växter och kaktusar, poolerna hade ganska bra temperatur, sängarna i rummen var däremot inte alls bra! Staden utanför är en lugn fiskeby med ett shopping center, strand och en hamn.

Our sixth visit and booked for another! Every year we return to celebrate our wedding anniversary the Staff are friendlier than ever; nothing is too much trouble, their motto being "You're happy, I'm happy!" The grounds are immaculate. The quality of food has improved each year, we now dine in every night at either restaurant. A big thank you in particular to Claudia, Christian, Juana and Henry, extended to everyone who made this holiday such a dream. Added to all this was wall to wall blue, a lovely temperature, a great chill out - heaven revisited!

Zum vierten Mal haben wir den langen Winter im Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa unterbrechen und so etwas verkürzen können. Und wieder war es ein Erfolg. Sauberkeit, Freundlichkeit und Qualität werden nicht nur im Prospekt erwähnt sondern tatsächlich praktiziert. Ein Urlaubsziel für Erholung und interessante Aktivitäten.

Vi er lige ved at afslutte en uges ophold med morgenmad på dette fantastiske luksushotel. Det er uden tvivl det flotteste hotel vi nogensinde har boet på. Værelse og ALT er perfekt og vild luksus. Der er 2 kæmpe opvarmede swimmingpools med sand rundt om. En kæmpestor men hyggelig reception med klipper, vandfald og 8 m høje palmer og en morgenmads buffet med mere end ALT hvad hjertet begærer uanset hvilken nation du kommer fra. Der er endda også champagne til morgenmaden! Det er helt sikkert en hotel, som vi meget gerne vil besøge igen hurtigst muligt og byen MOGAN er vildt hyggelig med mange gode restauranter i rimeligt prisleje. Kanon ferie!!!

Nous avons passé une superbe semaine du 17 au 23/02/012! Le temps annoncé était ensoleillé pour 22 degré. En réalité, nous ressentions bien 28-30 degré!!! Le bonheur !! (tout de même 2 jours d'acclimatation nécessaire le temps que le corps s'habitue au changement de température (nous avions 0 degré chez nous en Alsace). L'hôtel est superbe, les chambres spacieuses (avions rajouté un lit pour notre fille). Seul hic c'est que nous n'avions pas un lit double mais 2 lits accollés pour les parents.. Salle de bains spacieuses, tout parfait pour les handicapés! Le buffet est très variés et bon! Chaque soir au menu, des poissons/viandes différents et un repas à thème (chinois, mexicain, ...) Vous gardez la même table tous les soirs pour le dîner, qui est servi en 2 services. Placement libre pour le PDJ. Le personnel est très agréable! Pour les enfants, il y a un mini-club et une mini-disco le soir (il faut absolument manger au 1er service! Un peu tôt pour des vacances, mais que ne ferait-on pas pour nos bambins! Les piscines sont très belles et propres! Les petits cailloux sont bien mieux que du sable qu'on trainerait partout. Ma fille ne s'e, ait pas plainte, au contraire, elle s'imaginait des châteaux de cailloux ;) Pureté de Mogan est très joli, le sable de la plage est super fin et tiède, très agréable. Il y a plein de petits restau sympas. L'idéal est de louer une voiture à l'aéroport. Visites à faire: palmitos park (possibilité de caresser un dauphin pour 20€ et une photo), ou de participer au show des dauphins dès 7 ans. Aller aussi à Maspalomas voir les dunes de sable.. Attention, ça brûle les pieds!!! Vacances géniales, les gens forts sympathiques, ... Nous avons hâte d'y retourner.

We are serial returners to this hotel, among others , but this is probably my favorite. We have lost count how many times we have stayed here since it opened. The manager is absolutely right when he says it has the best weather on the island because it really does. Puerto Mogan's microclimate is fantastic as is Puerto Mogan and it is well worth the longer drive from the airport. For a taxi, pre book before you go. We go for the junior suites because they are 2 storey buildings in the gardens and have a separate room with a sofa bed for a child. When our son was younger, we opted for ground floor rooms with a garden but these are a bit shadier than the first floor rooms which are also quieter. Breakfast for the junior/suites is in a nearby building and much quieter than in the main restaurant. The communal areas are fantastic, the pool is always warmer than anywhere else we have ever stayed in the canaries and the atmosphere is very welcoming and relaxing. I have enjoyed better food in the canaries, however the food is still very good. You choose a table on your first night and keep it for the duration of the holiday which is great and means no rushing to get a good table for dinner as at some hotels. The staff are very helpful and do everything to accommodate your requests. In difficult financial times this is still a safe holiday investment, and the fact so many of the other guests are also serial returners is a reflection of the attentiveness of the management and staff at the hotel. We'll be there again later this year.

Hemos estado alojados ya dos veces en este hotel y volveremos el próximo verano. Al margen de las excelentes instalaciones y la tranquilidad del lugar, lo más destacable de este hotel es su servicio. Desde el personal de recepción, restaurantes, servicio de habitaciones, matenimiento, piscina,... todos han tenido un comportamiento fantástico. Cualquier solicitud ha sido atendida con impresionante rapidez y eficiencia pero, además, haciéndonos sentir casi como en casa. Gracias a todos

We have just returned from our third holiday in this hotel - and we booked our next year's visit before we left! Cordial Mogan Play is exceptional. It is a large hotel capable of accommodating up to one thousand people but due to the clever architectural design it does not appear so. Rooms in nine blocks of varying sizes and heights are positioned in beautifully maintained gardens almost to botanical standard and one can always find a place to sit in privacy and seclusion. Play tennis or squash or bowls, relax in the wonderful spa. Swim in one of the two pools, have some diving lessons, go to the gym or hire a mountain bike. Visit the library or make use of the hotel's wifi. Or do none of those things and just relax and enjoy this stress free environment. There have been some comments about the dinner in recent posts. The selection is huge and it can be sometimes daunting to find one's way around all that is on offer but one soon learns what appeals. What can be so bad abut beef carpaccio to start, pork in mustard sauce with rosti potatoes and ratatouille and crepe suzette to finish - or rare roast beef, or swordfish, or salmon or sole cooked as you wait with a very fresh salad.. Michelin star food it is not but it is excellent buffet food served to large numbers of people. Go to Los Guayres for fine dining and benefit from the discount if you are on half board. We eat well every night and we like our food. But the real stars of this hotel are the people who work there. The management team is always visible and not tucked away in their offices and the staff are wonderfully well trained, professional, competent, friendly and willing to do everything they can to make your holiday a happy one. Book today!

My stay at this beautiful hotel with lush gardens and two wonderful pools was way beyond my expectations. The staff were, happy, kind and very service-minded. We had halfboard and the food was very nice and there was a lot to choose from. All very well prepared and very nicely displayed. The wine list was very good. All in all my fiancé and I would go back time and time again.

Excellent endroit pour passer des vacances ultra reposante en plein hiver. Nous y avons séjourné fin février pendant une semaine, résultat: 27 degrés à l'ombre...Cet endroit (puerto de Mogan) bénéficie d'un micro climat, en effet nous nous sommes rendus deux fois à Maspalomas , Playa de Ingles (à une heure de route en bus) il y faisait froid , venteux et très nuageux, alors qu'à puerto de Mogan il y faisait magnifique. Il faut dire que l'hôtel est très bien protégé par de formidables plantations exotiques et autour de la piscine c'est un vrai régal de lézarder au soleil dans une ambiance calme et décontractée. Que dire de cet hôtel: il faut prendre une chambre supérieure dans le bloc "bleu", pour le petit déjeuner vous avez accès à l'extérieur, c'est beaucoup plus calme que pour le bloc "orange" et c'est un vrai paradis de pouvoir déjeuner dehors entouré d'une végétation luxuriante avec vue sur la petite chapelle avec un verre de cava rosé (le blanc est plus sucré)à la main, histoire de bien commencer la nouvelle journée de farnienté.. Le buffet du petit déjeuner est excellent et très très varié. Nous avons pris la demi-pension, le buffet du soir est excellent également et très varié, à part les desserts qui le sont beaucoup moins et pas d'une qualité exceptionnelle! mais rassurez-vous, le reste est très bon (pour un hôtel en Espagne entendons-nous bien!) Que dire encore, il faut y aller, c'est une valeure sûre si vous voulez passez un moment très déstressant, vous ressourcer..ne compter pas faire la fête tout les soirs, vers 23 heures il est l'heure d'aller se coucher après une petite animation d'une heure (chanteurs, magicien, ou autre groupe de musique tous d'un bon niveau). Le bonus, les petits déjeuners sont disponibles de 9 heures à midi, encore une fois: pas de stress d'arriver en retard! Il faut se promener le long de la plage et du port de puerto de Mogan, il y a d'innombrables restaurants pour se restaurer, d'ailleurs nous retournerons au Cordial Mogan mais pas en demi-pension, histoire de changer d'air et de découvrir les petits restos du petit port de plaisance. En bref, j'ai déjà séjouné à Ténérife, à Fuerteventura et c'est ici qu'il y a le meilleur hôtel pour se reposer, et j'insiste pour se reposer, pour la fête n'y aller pas! Il y avait également pas mal de jeunes couples ou de papy et mamy avec de jeunes enfants, la piscine est particulièrement adaptées aux enfants (faible profondeur, pente très douce pour y accéder...) mais le bruit des enfants ne nous a pas déranger plus que cela. Nous avons testé le SPA. Il est très beau, encore une fois, le paradis: nous l'avions pour nous, après avoir eu un peeling à l'orange, un cocon au thé vert et un massage relaxant à l'huile essentielle de fruits exotiques ( 90 euros par personne), nous nous sommes reposé au soleil dans de grands relax en forme de feuille, ou de lits à baldaquin entre les divers coussins... Le prix n'est pas donné, mais la prestation est de qualité. En ce qui concerne le personnel: très gentil, serviable, il n'y a jamaiss de problèmes ou d'énervement, leur devise: le client est roi, et il faut qu'il se sente bien durant son séjour. Je peux vous assurer qu'il y sont parvenu, en tout cas en ce qui nous concerne.

We spent a week at this hotel earlier this month. We were initially appalled on approach to see a hideous supermarket dominating the entrance but mercifully this first impression rapidly gave way to delight once we entered this amazing oasis in a fairly arid region. The hotel is huge, luxurious and beautifully and imaginatively built, and furnished. Everywhere you look there are trees and flowers, both inside and outside the hotel. Our room on the top floor overlooking the pool and gardens was excellent, the food was completely amazing. They cater for 1000 guests in two sittings in the evening in the main restaurant (there are 2 more!) and every type of food you could imagine is there (with the sole exception of fresh cream which, in common with other Canarian countries doesn't seem to be used). Lounging around either of the two pools in a joy although as in most other places people are reserving sunbeds from the crack of dawn. We found the further away pool to be a bit better in this respect. The staff were polite and helpful. I asked for a kettle for our room and a mattress topper as the bed was rock solid. Both were immediately provided. The hotel is a ten minute walk from Puerto Mogan.

Mycket bra hotell med fint läge nära Puerto Mogan. Stort hotell, men det märks inte.Vackra trädgårdar. Bra pooler med uppvärmning på vintern. Utmärkt frukost. Utvalet av lunchrestauranger inom området kunde vara bättre. Halkskydd i badkaren vore önskvärt, annars stor risk att halka. Trevlig altid leende personal.

Great hotel in nice location with friendly staff and excellent food and facilities. Mogan itself has a marina and a beach with many small restaurants to choose from. It is arguably the most pleasant resort on Gran Canaria Our 4th visit - can't fault it.

Superb in every way. Wonderful location, beautiful architecture, nice and friendly staff. Good food, clean and nice rooms. We had a wonderful time in Mogan, and we will be back sometime in the future for sure.

This is a wonderful holiday hotel: it has everything you could wish for. We stayed as a couple looking for some winter sun and a chance to get some exercise by walking in the mountains but we also just enjoyed meandering round the hotel gardens: it was like a Botanical Garden and also included a small archaeological site. Our room overlooked one of the pools but it was never noisey nor did we hear anything of the live music when it was on. It seemed to me that this place had struck a perfect balance between all the amenities and activities you could wish for: disco; live music; cocktail bars; children's entertainment; pool exercise; spa and wellbeing; games rooms; mountain biking; hiking tours; diving; tennis; squash; bowling and more, but at the same time it was peaceful and relaxing. We stayed B&B but we did eat in the hotel a la carte restaurant one night and the food was excellent. Breakfasts were stunning, there was just everything you could imagine and all excellent quality. There were also copious bottles of Cava to get the day off to a good start :) Staff were truly remarkable, I don't think I've ever stayed in a hotel, business or holiday, where people were so friendly and also where they actually looked as though they were enjoying themselves too - this gave the place a really great atmosphere. Rooms were a good size, I had wanted to book a suite but they had all gone. I was more than happy with the room though when I saw its size. The beds were really comfortable and a special mention for Marlene, our maid, who relalised after our first night that we wanted our bed making up as a double, not twin, and when we came back from breakfast it had been done without us even having to ask. Excellent service.

Ausgezeichnetes Hotel , sehr freundliches Personal, einwandfreie Sauberkeit, gutes bis sehr gutes Essen bei einer sehr großen Auswahl und Vielfalt. Sehr gute Lage, nur wenige Minuten fußläufig vom Hafen und Strand entfernt. Wir waren im Februar zu Gast. Zu dieser Jahreszeit ist es tagsüber angenehm warm (22-25 Grad), morgens und abends aber noch kühl. Wir empfehlen leichte Pullover oder Jacken mitzunehmen.

This will probably be my shortest review yet . Simply put, from the moment we checked in, this hotel did not disappoint . Rooms, pools,lounges, gardens, restaurants, cafes all great but I think that what's special about the Cordial is it's staff. Everyone, from reception personnel to the housekeeping staff, went out of their way to make us feel welcome . It's no wonder that people keep going back. I love Mogan and to stay here is the icing on the cake . Well done Cordial !

El mejor complejo hotelero en el que hemos estado ( y hemos estado en muchos). En primer lugar en Puerto de Mogan hace siempre un clima fantastico y eso hace mucho cuando vas en invierno. Despues el complejo en si con sus magnificas piscinas climatizadas, sus maravillosos jardines y todo un entorno encantador. La gastronomia muy bien cuidada y sobre todo la exquisita atencion de todo el personal, muchas gracias a todos y en particular al maitre gallego, a Diego que nos toco de camarero y a Maria de animacion, encantadora con los niños, todo un acierto tener una animadora española (otros años solo habia dos animadoras extranjeras y con los niños no se entendian). Solo decir que pronto volveremos.

Just back from Gran Canaria after a very relexing week in the Cordial Mogan Playa. The hotel had everything you could want and was really good for a break at this time of year. Puerto Mogan is a very quiet place and perfect for oldies like us. We booked a junior suite which was lovely with a private garden etc only one small point it did not get sun at any time of day but that was the only thing but other then that it was perfect. The buffet for breakfast and dinner offered a great choise. The lace is beautifully kept with lots of things to do. After being in the Canarias before I though I would not ever go back but Puerto de Morgan is well worth a visit.

How can you start different to any other review, the place is brilliant, the staff are first class and polite and friendly, the rooms have all you want and cleaned daily. the buffet has something for everyone, how anyone can complain we have no idea. there is 3 pools with lots of beds, although people do put their towels on them very early and then not use them! and the staff do try, we saw them leaving notes to people asking them not to do this, but to no avail, maybe there should be a new rule, no towels on beds before 11am unless you are sat on them, otherwise your towel will be taken and sun creams books ect put into a box, you then have to pay 2 eruo to get another towel! we all like rules and this would stop the silly behavior, there are enough beds for everyone. This said, it did not detract just how well this hotel is run. Every one of the staff just want to please you, come on how many places can this said about? The restaurant beside the pool is fab, the young lady there brought us the same every morning at 11am, after ordering a cortardo (small coffee) two mornings, she knew this was what was required and brought them without even asking!! thoughtful, there are a lot of people there, but you are treated like you are the only one that matters. Will we be back? YES this is only holiday I have been on where I wasn't ready to come home, another week would have been great, 3 weeks next year, yes please.

Hotel room clean and comfortable. Beautiful little village. Exotic campus and surroundings with a variety of lush vegetation. Never tired of buffets after 10 day stay. Very attentive staff. No complaints whatsoever. Recommended without hesitation.

We are just back from Cordial mogan playa we had a fantastic time in a junior suite which was quiet and very clean we were half board and thought the buffet was great very good quality and had great choice and only a few minutes from the beach our favorite holiday so far we will be back

Firstly, I do not think there is a more beautiful place in Gran Canaria than Puerto de Mogan and if you want to stay there then the Cordial Mogan Playa is the place to stay. We stayed there at the beginning of February and were not disappointed. The rooms are large and spacious with a wonderful bathroom with shower.The whole hotel is clean and tidy. We stayed half board and both breakfast and evening meals were buffet. Both meals have a large selection of food and I thought of a high standard. Whilst we were there sunbeds around the pools were always available. I am not sure if this will be the case in the summer months. Staff were helpful but unobtrusive. It is just a short walk to the town and beach and both are excellent and you also have a harbour were you have a regular service to Puerto Rica ( a pleasant boat ride to a rather tacky place although the cafes on the beach are quite nice!) I would certainly recommend a stay at Cordial Mogan Playa and hope to return next year.

This is the second time we have stayed at the Cordial Mogan Playa and it is the first time we have returned to the same hotel and location for our Winter Sun holiday; that alone speaks for itself. We were not disappointed. The hotel facilities are maintained to a very high standard. All the staff are polite and helpful. We stayed Half Board again and enjoyed the wide selection of food. We would not hesitate to recommend this hotel for all ages. Don't go to Puerto Mogan if you want nightlife; it is a delightful peaceful haven and is a great location for relaxation. The motorway extension to Mogan opens in March 2013; we hope that doesn't spoil this idyllic location. We just wish it was only 2hrs away instead of 5hrs; it would be great for a long weekend break to recharge the batteries! We are already planning a return.

At last we Find our best visit in Gran Canaria. Excellent hotel, Fantastic food. The views over the nice gardens and the 2 pools, we never forget. We give our best rekommendation. Staff very polite and helpful. The first contact with the reception is very importent and here was It very wellcomed. The room was very well cleaned everything day.

Excellent hotel and beautiful little harbour town. Can't speak highly enough of it. Lovely rooms, clean and spacious with views over the gardens or pools. Food was excellent with a great choice. We stayed half board and were not disappointed with the carvery. How many hotel managers take the time to come and say 'thank you' to you on your last night? This is the only one where I've ever experienced that. Their attention to detail is superb. We'll certainly go back and will be highly recommending to all our friends.

This hotel was recommended to us by Mr & Mrs Ian Smith, whilst in a transfer taxi, last year, from Bellapais to Larnaca. What a gem! can't thank you enough if you happen to be looking at this review! Hotel BRILLIANT - best we've ever stayed in - GREAT location, hotel faultless, excellent room, fantastic food, staff, cleanliness - we could go on, but dashing to travel agents to book here again!

This was our third visit to CMP, same time the last three years. Bearing in mind the many people who walk through their doors it's lovely to be met with, "Hi, welcome back!" Needless to say the staff were as excellent as ever, in particular Nerea on reception, who treats everyone like her own family. Ignore the negative comments re the food. With such a big buffet you need to go for a wander first and see what's on offer. We dined differently every time we ate. Fresh food - fish, prawns, rabbit, beef, pork duck, lamb - cooked in front of you, how you like it, cold meats, cold fish dishes, cheeses and with hundreds of side dishes. what's not to like? A vegetarian would not be disappointed here either. The gardens are beautiful and well maintained and the spa is great too. Brilliant location five minutes walk from the charming harbour town, where you'll find excellent restaurants. The service can be quite slow in most of them but you're in Canarian time, relax and go with the flow. The reason it takes time is they're making it fresh for you. All in all a fantastic hotel, great location, and see you next year!

Just returned from a very relaxing week at Hotel. Staff very friendly and helpful food amazing and so many choices. Pool areas immaculate with attentive staff. We had lovely views of the gardens which were a delight to walk through, once we found the gate at the end of the garden, which took only minutes to reach the beach. Will certainly be booking again, thank you for a great week.

We have just returned from a week at this high quality hotel; all the staff are very friendly, going out of their way to greet guests and the smiles are genuine. We wanted to go to Playa de Mogan because compared to other, larger and frenetic Gran Canaria destinations this resort is much quieter, with well-maintained mature plants and trees. There is for example no traffic along the marina front which retains a traditional charm and there are no high rise blocks to spoil the view. Cordial Mogan Playa Hotel provided us with high levels of comfort and services we needed and excels in serving a very wide range of high quality buffet style food, there is also a themed menu on most nights and for something special there is a smaller gourmet restaurant. We enjoyed our walks to the harbour through the hotel's extensive gardens where all the plants are named. We will return!

We spent a 9 days at Cordial Mogan Playa in January 2013, and now I can say that is ideal for a break during winter holidays (especially russian winter holidays-very long and very cold). Everything about the hotel was good (including location). The hotel was very beautiful inside.The gardens were full of exotic trees and flowers and had a little cactus park. Pools were clean but could be some heater. Architecture of the buildings was beautiful and the hotel even had an archaeological zone. Our junior suite was nice and comfortable and we had a sun on a balcony from 1p.m. till 4p.m. The food in the hotel was very delicious and very varied. We had half board and it don't includes the drinks! And that was the only problem, because good dinner needs some wines, but even ordinary wines were very expensive. All the staff were so friendly and helpfull (especially thanks to Monica). So the hotel is a great place for a relaxing holiday

We have just returned from a week at the Cordial Mogan Playa. This is the second year we have been because we enjoyed it so much last year. Nothing has changed it is still superb. The rooms are very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The catering is fantastic, you certainly will never go hungry and there is such an amazing selection at every meal to chose from. Despite its capacity to house a large number of people you do not ever feel crowded. The gardens are beautiful and the staff are so friendly and want to help whatever you need. We shall b booking again for next Janaury very shortly.

I have stayed a week at this magnificent hotel and I am overwhelmed. The architecture, the gardens and the staff are of absolute top-class. The only negative item is that full-size buses have difficulties in turning around in front of the hotel, that is a little bit dangerous.

Just back from a week break at the Cordial. This is one of the best hotels I have experienced in over 60 years of travelling. The staff were exceptionally friendly in all areas of the hotel; facilities are spot on. The buffet dinner was excellent with the widest selection of choice imaginable. Pool area was always clean and well managed. For once I can find no negative aspects to comment upon. I can recommend this to anyone wanting a relaxing break. Top marks Cordial!!!!

Picked this hotel as part of Thomas Cook package. We have stayed in many hotels during our lives but this one is right up there! From the warm welcome from the reception staff (including a glass of Cava), and the exceptional "bellboy" who arranged a choice of two other rooms after we were mistakenly shown to a "smoking" room , the service was top quality! Our room, with private balcony, was bright, clean and spacious. The grounds were like a botanical garden with a number of ponds with tropical fish and even a small aviary with Canaries (what else?) dotted throughout. The swimming pools beautifully clean and there were plenty of semi-private spots to relax on sun beds. The Buffet style restaurant was incredible! Forget "buffet" as we know it, Roast Pork, Half Duck, Roast Beef, Chicken - you name it, it was there! Sushi, Chinese, Italian and of course Spanish, you could not fail to find something you liked. You chose a table on your first evening and that table was guaranteed every evening unless you requested a change. The Restaurant staff could not be more professional - friendly, attentive and always ready to enjoy a laugh but never intrusive. The town with its wealth of restaurants and bars is only a short walk and the Friday market should not be missed.This Hotel is the complete package!

Obwohl das Hotel hauptsächlich von älteren Gästen besucht wurde, fühlten wir uns mit unseren beiden Zwergen sehr wohl! Das Personal und auch alle anderen Spanier sind soooo Kinderfreundlich, dass es eine wahre Freude ist! Die Entfernung zum Strand, sowie zum sehr schönen Hafen (Fische beobachten) war für uns immer ein willkommener Spaziergang! Der Transfer zum Hotel dauerte 40 Minuten und beinhaltete 4 Stops bei etwa 10 Gästen. Das war absolut ok! Der Transfer zum Flughafen beinhaltete 8 Stops bei ca. 50 Gästen und dauerte 2 Stunden... das war etwas anstrengend, vorallem mit kleinen Kindern!

This four star plus hotel was one of the best hotels we've stayed in, on any of the Canary Islands over the last nine visits. Set in magnificent tropical gardens, it is surrounded by exotic trees, shrubs and flowers. There are three swimming pools - a little one for toddlers, and two spacious, heated pools. All are spotlessly clean and well maintained. There are lots of sun beds, and fresh towels are available whenever needed. The public areas of the hotel were very well maintained and had lots of seating. The desk staff were very helpful and extremely friendly and even presented us with a glass of champagne on arrival. We will definitely return this hotel.

We visited this hotel last April '12 and loved it. I worried a bit about going to Gran Canaria for Spring sun as I thought it may be um, how do I say this......overcrowded with English and loud. How wrong can I be. Puerto Mogan is a lovely little town, with lots of character. Hotel Mogan Playa is a well run hotel, with beautiful grounds. The best I have seen anywhere. We did have a room that was high up and facing the top pool near reception that received the evening sun. Lovely to come back and have a glass of wine sitting on the balcony before getting ready for the evening! The reason for the late review is that we have booked again for this May '13 so I have been keeping an eye on the reviews. This is the first time ever in my travelling life that I have returned to the same hotel/place. So that says a lot about how much we enjoyed our visit. The food......For the size of hotel, we were truly amazed at the fantastic standard and variety. For a buffet we thought it exceptional. In the best of restaurants, there will be something not liked. So if you want roast beef/turkey etc abroad, stay in England! To sum up: Lovely hotel with good size, clean rooms. Smiley, helpful staff. Good food. Entertainment every night if you wish. An attractive resort a short walk away with good restaurants if you fancy a change of scenery. Local bus stop is not far for visiting other locations. (Is next to a little shop where you can buy the wine for the balcony!) After our visit in May I'll put another review on, from the comments I've seen I'm sure it will be just as good. No stars for the Spa, purely because we didn't go in there.

Just spent a week at the Cordial Playa. The staff can't do enough for you, the restaurant and service were superb (although I do agree with a recent review regarding the luke warm coffee at breakfast) the entertainment was good, and the extensive gardens were beautifully kept. And as non-cat lovers, we were pleased to see that the two resident cats had their own feeding station and beds, so they didn't "pester" guests around the pool or bar area! We'll be back!

I stayed here at Christmas 2012, and have booked to go back this year we were so impressed. The overall hotel facilties are marvelous. The staff made us feel very welcome, and may i add were all local people.The food was freshly made ,and served to you, by very friendly staff. The rooms are all stratigically layed out in a village like formation, you dont feel as if you are in such a large hotel. The grounds of the hotel itself are very well kept, and maintained to a very high standard. The swimming pools cater for children and grown ups alike, as there is more than one area to bathe. It was very good value for money and i would highly recommend a visit. I particularly enjoyed all the staff singing christmas carols and handing out champange to us on christmas day, nice personal touch. Feliz navidad.

Just come back from Cordial Mogan Playa for second year. Fantastic hotel . Very quiet resort with lovely harbour area, plenty of restaurants and bars. Lovely beach although we are not beach people. Hotel staff can't do enough for you and any complaints are dealt with straight away. My husbands birthday while we were there and the hotel gave us a bottle of Cava and a happy birthday lettery which was much appreciated. Rooms very good and maid service excellent. Staff remembered us from last year which is quite a feat after all the clients they have during the year. Will definitely go back again. Sophia on breakfast duty fantastic lady and sang happy birthday to my husband with a lovely card and gateau!!!!

Un endroit magique : Mogan Playa et le Port (la "petite Venise"). Un climat exceptionnel (20°-24° à midi, en janvier), plein soleil alors qu'il pleuvait ou ventait sur le reste de Gran Canaria ! Et au milieu des collines de lave, un village-oasis avec son propre "jardin botanique", ses bâtiments isolés ,à taille humaine et de couleurs gaies, des chambres et des services ****, un vrai paradis en hiver ... Bien entendu, le rêve et la beauté ont un prix ... certain, mais justifié par des prestations exceptionnelles. Mais attention : le plus pénible dans un tel séjour, c'est la fin et le retour en Europe continentale, en pleine neige, alors que la veille je me baignais encore dans celle des 2 piscines qui est chauffée à 25 ° en permanence.

This was our second stay here. We spent one week during the Christmas holidays and were just as satisfied with our stay this year as we were last year. Cordial Mogan Playa is a perfect place for relaxing. The staff made us feel very welcome and did all they could to make our stay as comfortable as possible. A special thanks to Nerea at the reception who speaks perfect English and helped us change our room to one with more sun in the afternoon. She also managed to get us a reservation for the New Year’s Gala Dinner at the superb Los Guayres restaurant even though it was fully booked. Great work, Nerea! The hotel is big, but because of the architecture and the many buildings spread round in the wonderful garden, you don’t get the holiday factory feeling that is often very present in other big Gran Canaria hotels. Even though the hotel was full when we were there, the atmosphere was quiet and relaxed. We had half board and enjoyed dinner in the buffet restaurant, but for a change the a la carte restaurant Los Guayres is a great experience. Different entertainment every night and several activities during the day. There is free WIFI in all the rooms, and free parking in the hotel garage. Free pool towels which can be changed every day if needed. There are two big pools with lots of sunbeds with thick and comfortable mattresses. If you prefer the beach, it’s only a five to ten minutes’ walk away. Cordial Mogan Playa is an excellent hotel situated in what is probably the most charming resort on Gran Canaria. We have already started to plan our next stay here.

We have stayed at this hotel in Dec. for the last 4 years and in Jan. last year. The Cordial Mogan Playa is by far the best hotel we have stayed in, and deserves a 5 star rating. The moment you arrive you are greeted with a glass of champagne and made to feel special and welcome. All of the staff are very helpfull and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Everywhere is spotlessly clean and the gardens are amazing. If a problem occurs, very rare, it is delt with immediatly. The rooms are spacious and a fridge is provided for your convience. There is a small shop in the hotel which sells souveniers and importantly water and suncream cheaper than the local shops. We hope that we are able to stay at this hotel many times in the future and would not consider any other resort or hotel in Gran Canaria.

This was our first stay at this wonderful hotel, it was amazing, and only 5 minutes walk from the beach and port, the hotel itself was magnificent, the service first class and very friendly, the rooms were spotless, the director even offers a drink to the guests every Friday, our only issue was that the dining room is so big and you have so much choice, is that in the evening it was not always easy to find what we wanted, it took us a few days to get used to, that's why we will be going back again, without doubt but in general amazing, plus we had the sunshine every day. Like to say here thank you to all the staff who helped give us a wonderful holiday.

We stayed at the cordial Mogan Playa for the second time, arriving on January 5th and staying for one week. We are a couple ages 43 and 50, having travelled all over the world, staying in many different hotels. One of our absolute favorite experiences is when viviting Puerto Mogan and the Cordial Mogan Playa. The welcome greeting from staff is always excellent, you feel welcome and relaxed at once. The rooms are cleaned so perfecktly every day, we often had to comment on how clean are roooms where every day. Breakfast is enjoyable and there is absolutly nothing missing, just for you to enjoy all kind s of fruits, eggs, omlette, all kinds of breads, all kinds of cakes, champagne, coffe, tea....the staff is so help ful at all times. We did not have lunch or dinner at the hotel so I can not comment on this. Short way to walk to the harbour and enjoy the lovely Puerto Mogan. We were suprised and really enjoyed the entertainment this time, we saw 4 shows during the week and especially liked - Frequencies (kind of IL-Divo music)and the group from Cape Town(Well know soul music from the sixties) high quality shows at night. We will go back again - next January, it is a trip to pamper yourself! Make sure to bring a sweater as the nights can be quite cold. But sunshine all day long:) No worries, worth a visit if your going to Gran Canaria, you will not be dissappointed.

We have just returned from a 3 night stay at this beautiful Hotel after spending 7 nights in a different resort. Our only regret is that we weren't staying longer. It is without doubt the nicest Hotel we have ever stayed in. It's rating is 4* plus - cannot see why it's not a 5 star. We were greeted with a glass of champagne on arrival and a porter took our cases and showed us to our room. The room was lovely - tastefully decorated and equipped with fridge, HAIRDRYER, toiletries, etc... We had a beautiful view overlooking the stunning gardens and pool. The whole hotel is immaculately clean. The common areas are amazing and it was just a case of WOW everywhere we went. We found the food to be excellent with a wide choice and beautifully presented. Just a short stroll to the harbour of Mogan which is so pretty with its winding streets, beautiful flowers and choice of many restaurants and bars, the hotel is ideally situated. Could go on & on but can only conclude by saying this Hotel is extremely ' highly recommended' and that we hope to return there very soon. Just one more thing.......the staff all across the board were very professional, helpful and welcoming & went out of their way to be accommodating to all their guests. If there were to be any down sides ......there were certain times when there was a bit of a drain smell and also the beds could have been firmer.....but really only minor niggles and didn't spoil our holiday .....as previously said the only thing that did that was having to leave!

Un pequeño paraíso enmarcado en la zona más bonita de Gran Canaria, el puerto de Mogan. Lo que más nos ha impresionado es lo atentos que han sido todo el personal del hotel, sobretodo con nuestra pequeña Zoe, o "la muñeca" o "la farola" o "ojazos" como la conocían casi todo el personal del hotel y principalmente del restaurante Tamarona. Las instalaciones impecables, limpieza absoluta en todas las estancias y detalles por todos lados. El jardín tropical, precioso y las piscinas muy buenas y limpias. Nosotros hemos estado en Enero de 2013, con unos 21 grados de media y gracias a la climatización de la piscina, nos hemos podido bañar razonablemente bien a media mañana. De toda nuestra estancia solo un pequeño pero, la rigidez en los horarios de restaurante y de zonas comunes como las boleras, los cuales están más dirigidos al huésped foráneo (inglés o alemán) con unos horarios más "tempraneros". Pero esto para nada empaña nuestra maravillosa estancia en este pequeño paraíso. Gracias en especial a todo el personal del restaurante Tamarona, nos habéis hecho pasar una estancia inolvidable. David, Ana y Zoe

We stayed at this hotel for the last week in July and first week in August 2012 and had a wonderful holiday. The hotel is beautiful and the gardens are stunning. It was lovely to be able to sit on a sunbed in such lovely surroundings. The ages of people staying, ranged from babies to great grandparents. As we have 2 teenage daughters, I was a little concerned that they may be bored, but they made lots of friends and had a great time. The water polo was the highlight for them and did get rather competitive at times, but was a great hit! The staff were very helpful, and the hotel and grounds were extremely clean. We had requested rooms overlooking a pool, which I know they cannot always managed, but the reception staff were very accommodating and managed to get us moved after one night. We also took advantage of the great classes offered by the pool - from yoga & meditation to aqua aerobics! The buffet dining room was large and offered a great variety of food. Towards the end of holiday it did start to get a busy at meal times, and the level of greed shown by some people shocked me. I will never understand why people pile their plates so high with food, and then just leave it. The staff were constantly re-filling, so there was no reason for it. It was a little off-putting, but not the hotels fault at all. As we were leaving, getting a sunbed started to become an issue for some people. The towel reservation system started to come into effect!! Having said that, we never had an issue getting a bed. If you couldn't find one, the pool attendants were on hand to help you. I think it was more for people who wanted to be right on the poolside. Sat away from the edge, in amongst the lovely gardens was often more peaceful anyway. Mogan itself is very picturesque, but quiet. It is not the place to go if you want a wild holiday. It was lovely and relaxing and a good base to explore the rest of the island.There are some lovely shops and restaurants. One thing we did notice was that the exact same items in shops in Playa des Ingles, were a lot cheaper in Mogan. We used the bus service and the boats that left from the harbour, and were very efficient. We would definitely go back to this hotel again, and have no problem recommending it to others.

I stayed at this hotel from 26th November to 10th December 2012. My 5th visit. The rooms are great, and I have always had a lovely balcony. The food is excellent and varied. The staff are so welcoming and kind. For me the resort and hotel are perfect.

In December 2012 my family and I including two small kids stayed for a week in Cordial Mogan Playa. The hotel was very beautiful inside, and the standard of the rooms we had, was high. There were new entertainment almost every evening in the bar area, a spa department was also available. The pools were very nice. The hotel even had its own church on the property. There weere two nice girls, Alina and Sarita, looking after children and playing with them in a special room for children. These nice young ladies also took part thogether with Santa Claus in a seremony where all chlidren got a litle present. This was very popular. In the hotel there also was a kiosk where I every day could by Norwegian newspaper from the nice girl named Nudia. It was 5 minutes walk to the beautiful senter of Pourto Mogan with a beach. I really enjoid the stay at Cordial Hotel.

Spent the New Year here again for the second time with my family. Wonderful location, beautiful food and calm atmosphere. Will be staying again in the near future. Recommend a leisurely walk down to the harbour early morning for fresh coffee and fresher sea air

We stayed in this hotel in December 2011 for 1 week and loved it This time we arrived on the 21st December and left on the 5th Jan we asked for the same room and got it which was great I agree in a way about the food as it became a bit samey after 2 weeks but we varied it by getting a voucher for lunch and going to the restaurants at the harbour for delicious inexpensive food The main attraction has to be the staff as they just worked their socks off and were funny too Thanks to the Housekeeping staff for their lovely Christmas carols on Christmas day We must have loved it we are booked for March and we are waiting for our 10% loyalty card to arrive so we can save a bit on drinks etc Thanks to all

The hotel setting is very nice. Our room was clean and there was a cleaning guy coming every day. Every room has a balcony and ours was great to sit and enjoy the view of the mountains and the pool when our little boy was sleeping. There were 2 pools, one for children with music and animation staff. Other is quiet and generally older people were there. We stayed there for Xmas and the New Year and there was a dinner gala for those 2 nights with free drinks. Our 17 months old son enjoyed the mini club and kid's disco. There is a small playground. Puerto de Mogan is 5 mins away if you prefer to walk. Nice beach and harbour, many cafes and restaurants for lunch and dinner. Supermarket in a few mins away to buy water or baby food/nappy. Breakfast staff and buffet were excellent. Every staff loves children and our son received a lot of attention. I definitely go back and recommend it everyone except couples. It wasn't a very romantic place for honeymoon. Especially if you don't like children.

The reviews give an accurate picture of this hotel. My one observation - the pool could have been a few degrees warmer. The staff are excellent, always helpful and with a smile. Plenty of sunbeds near the pool and the Spa was terrific. The weather was excellent and Mogan is an attractive smaller location with some good sea front restaurants. We hope it stays that way for the future as some of the other locations appear very busy and aimed at a hectic nightlife. We took the day trip to the central region, up into the mountains and the clouds - this was very enjoyable, Big Gary giving the running commentary between the 3 people carriers that formed the convoy. It gives a view of life beyond the tourist hotel - but - it can get very cold in the clouds -take multiple bits of clothing ! We also took one of the local 'dolphin viewing trips' from Mogan - we met Big Ronnie on the beachfront selling the tickets - you may want to view the vessel before signing up ! - The trip was good without being spectacular - but we were pleased to reach dry land 5 hours later after hitting some fairly friskie waves ( for landlubbers like us anyway ! ) I think there are better trips available than those available through Big R. We hope to return next year - its a great place to spend the Christmas Hols.

We stayed in the hotel from the 21. December 2012 and a week forward. We really enjoyed our stay. We were impressed with the layout of the hotel, which ensures that children can play freely, while adults can relax away from noise. The rooms were nice, clean and spacious and the staff is very servile and friendly. Breakfast was delicious and elaborate, so definetly worth a try. The hotel grounds are designed as a botanical garden, which makes for a relaxing environment and at the same time ensures some privacy from other guests. The fancy restaurant at the hotel is worth a try as well. Finally, a word about Puerto de Mogan playa and harbour. At the end of the hotel grounds you will find PDM town, which ends to the left with a small lagune and to the right a beautiful harbour with great restaurants and views. Enjoy your stay:)

We returned to Cordial Mogan Playa this December based on a perfect stay during the same week last year. Everything about this hotel is first class with the most charming staff who go out of their way to ensure guests have the best holiday possible. All our special requests were dealt with which ensured a blissful week of relaxation - just what we were looking for. In addition this year, the TV/DVD has been replaced with the latest models. Many thanks, again, for a wonderful experience.

This is the second time that we have stayed and on both occasions we have had an excellent time; great service, food and amenities. The gardens are worth a visit on their own; highly recommended. Puerto Mogan is a quiet place where you can enjoy a relaxing holiday away from the crowds.

Wir waren jetzt schon zum sechsten Mal in drei Jahren in dem Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa und sind immer wieder begeistert. Man hat das Gefühl in einem botanischen Garten zu wohnen und nicht in einem großen Hotel. Viele fleißige, hilfsbereite und herzliche Angestellte tragen dazu bei, daß sich die Gäste sehr entspannt wohl fühlen können. Dies beginnt bereits an der sehr professionellen Rezeption. Die freundlichen und kompetenten Mitarbeiter der Rezeption laden die neuen Gäste zu einem kostenlosen Getränk (Sekt, Orangensaft, Wasser) ein, während die notwendigen Formalitäten erledigt werden. Die Zimmer sind großzügig und sehr sauber. Die gesamte Hotelanlage ist sehr gepflegt und bis ins Detail durchdacht. Wir sind rundum zufrieden und freuen uns schon darauf auch im nächsten Jahr wieder Gäste im Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa zu sein. E&R

We have just returned from spending Christmas in this hotel, it was fab and will definitely return the staff at the hotel were outstanding could not do enough for you, We spend 5 night in Gloria Palace in Porto Rico and 5 nights in Morgan the only way I could describe the difference in the hotels is it was going from hell to haven the Gloria Palace which is suppose to be a 4 star was awful the staff were the most rudest people I ever came across the rooms are big an outdated with old carpet in the room, the smell from the room turned my stomach every time I entered the room the T.V. was a old big outdated telly I would not recommend the Gloria Palace to anyone the only thing it have going for it was the view of the sea which was beautiful. On the other hand the Cordial Hotel was out on it own the staff were unbelievable each and every one of them. The Hotel was beautiful from the rooms to the gardens and the reception area to the pools it was a beautiful relaxing break, the port was beautiful picture est with beautiful flowers everywhere and lovely restaurants it is only a small area and would not be suitable for young people looking for night life, we have stayed in 7 different hotels in Gran Canaria area over the past few years and I would rate the Cordial Hotel as the best experience of the all and will return again for a winter break in 2013.

Wir waren jetzt zum fünften mal drei Wochen dort und sind immer noch begeistert. Ein Platz wo man sich wirklich wohlfühlen kann. Man wohnt praktisch in einem botanischen Garten und hat nie das Gefühl in einem grossen Hotel zu sein.Die Anlage ist sehr grosszügig, es gibt was für jeden Geschmack. Alles ist sehr sauber und gepflegt und die beiden grossen Pools ohne Klorgeruch laden zum Schwimmen ein. Das Personal ist einzigartig, immer freundlich, entgegenkommend und hilfsbereit mit einer Herzlichkeit, die man nicht so oft findet. Es ist schwer sich zu trennen, wenn man abreisen muss. Wir sprechen schon von unserem nächsten Besuch dort. Eveline Mair

Just arrived home after a week in the beginning of december, I will once again say it is a fantastic hotel. The staff and the service they give is outstanding. Rooms nice and clean. The breakfast and the buffet at nigth are perfect. But most of all we like the architecture of the hotel, there is always somtething new for your eyes to look at, a new detail you just discover and which surprises you. The same is for the tropical garden, very well kept and again arranged with different plants and flowers. All this gives your eyes something new to look at and gives you good feelings. We will for sure be back in the coming year.

Wanted to celebrate my birthday in sunnier climes, and as my father celebrates a December birthday (he was 79 years young) it seemed a great idea to get away from it all. Delighted that the four of us, myself, partner and parents chose Cordial Mogan Playa. Beautiful Hotel and grounds, with modern and well appointed bedrooms/bathrooms. Staff were very friendly and helpful and appeared to love their work, making it a very fine environment to be within. Everywhere was immaculate, without exception and beautiful to boot! A big thank-you to the General Manager Alberto Pernalete, who organised complimentary ice buckets of fizz to be placed in our bedrooms on our respective birthdays. Must also mention the main restaurant, which supplied varied, well presented tasty food. Especially loved the night time entertainment of the Tenors (our favourite of the week). Would highly recommend this hotel, and can understand why many holidaymakers return to this hotel and resort.

Out of over 35 Spanish holiday hotels we've stayed in over the years, this is easily the best. The rooms, the pool area and the grounds are beautifully looked after and the buffet is excellent. What is also oustanding is the quality of the staff. They are bright, intelligent, knowlegable and helpful - but more than anything they are all clearly happy in their work which creates an atmosphere that pervades the whole hotel and is a credit to the management. Not surprisingly, almost all the guests we've talked to were repeat visitors who to fully intend to keep returning. The many other reviews already describe in detail why the hotel is so well thought of - so this review will provide just a tip for first time visitors. Puerto Mogan is at the furthest point from the airport. This means that a shuttle bus takes a LONG TIME!! On our last trip, the flight arrived at 5.45 in the afternoon, the shuttle bus left the airport at 7.05 and we arrived at the hotel two hours later at at 9.05. This meant dashing in for dinner before the restaurant closed. Had we taken a taxi, we'd have arrived at the hotel at around 7.00, unpacked, showered and had a leisurely evening. The return shuttle involved a 2 o'clock pick up for a 6.45 flight! This was beyond the call of duty so we arranged a taxi for 4 o'clock and were dropped at the airport 39 minutes later. The taxi costs 65euros each way - and is worth every penny.

It was our fourth visit to this hotel and now with children and grandchildren, total 6 adults and 3 children and we stayed in juniorsuites that is the best you can have. If you choose ground floor you do have a little garden and if you take one at the first floor you do have a big balcony in both you have sun chairs. The only negative is that if you are on first floor there is no roof and sometimes ? it rain or the sun is very hot. We do recommend that You don't have half board because there's so many nice restaurants in the village that is only 5 to 10 minutes away. And You should walk up to the mountain besides the village to have a good view of it all and it is a easy walk we met people of all ages. The only negative is that we found the pools colder than earlier but they were not to coold

What a fantastic place. The hotel is top class, the staff were brilliant and it is so, so clean. The hotel and it's neighbouring self-catering villas are the main accomodation in the area (there are some other, smaller places, but very few of them came up online) so we were a bit concerned about being isolated. We were pleasantly surprised though. Not only was there loads to do at the hotel, it was only a short walk (5-mins) to the beach and another couple to the harbour. Both of which had plently of shops, cafe's and restaurants although we enjoyed the food at the hotel so much, we hardly ever ate out. The included dinners were all buffet's but very, very good ones with plenty to chose from. You are allocated you table on your first day and that table is yours for the rest of your trip which I really liked (dinner only, mornings you help yourself to tables) be warned though, gentlemen are asked to wear trousers in the evening. Which I personally tink is a nice touch, but as someone who would often only pack shorts to such a hot place, I was glad to have read the same advice on here previously! We really cannot praise this place enough, the only people we felt it might be a bit unsuitable for is heavy pubbers/clubbers who want a high energy night life. But for most people wanting an enjoyable and relaxing holiday, it is fantastic!

Cosy hotel, far away for a concrete complex, Nice and friendly staff. High quality breakfast, the evening buffet is ok but not more Calm and quiet and perfect for r&r. The Friday market was rather busy and crowded. Not my cup of tea, but I am not much of a shopaholic either.., At the next stay, I will skip the half board and go for the many restaurants in the harbour instead.

My second visit to Cordial Mogan Playa - and this time on my own, I was made to feel very much at home and thoroughly enjoyed my two week stay - the weather was great and the staff were as usual helpful and friendly. A great place to chill out, relax and soak up the sun. Will definately return again next November - such a good time to escape the cold here in the U.K.

Everything you read is true! We traveled (my husband and I) with our 16 month old. We stayed last week in room 9018 (south facing suite). The room has a rather small living room, but nice size bedroom and a great garden with lots of sun, flowers and places to sit. The staff are happy, helpful and fun. They doted over our daughter! The place is simply spotless (and that's by Swiss standards!). I had a really nice massage/wrap at the Spa (highly recommend!). Also recommend renting a car and going to the Palmitos Park in Maspalomas. Definitely worth a trip. The only thing I could possibly wish for is an ocean view/private beach - but I think this would have mad e the trip unaffordable for us (looking at some of the other prices on the Island). The beach is only a five minute walk from the suites and is lovely for little ones. We will absolutely be back!

Esta es la segunda vez que disfrutamos de este fantástico hotel. Como siempre, el personal fue muy atento ante todas nuestras peticiones: mandamos un mail para elegir un tipo de habitación concreta y cuando llegamos lo tenían todo preparado. La comida del restaurante es excelente, las carnes son de gran calidad y cada día hay gran variedad de platos a elegir. A pesar de estar el hotel casi lleno en pleno mes de noviembre no hay problemas para poder coger una buena hamaca en la piscina, incluso si acudes tarde a ella. He estado en muchos hoteles de alto standing en diferentes países, y tengo que reconocer que en este hotel tiene un encanto especial, tanto es así que es la primera vez que hemos querido repetir. Lo recomiendo a todo el mundo.

Super super super. Clean large room with great facilities, fantastic buffet for breakfast and dinner Choice of wines a bit disappointing. Staff super friendly. Highly recommend for a chill out holiday short walk to beach which was rather small with imported sand, but why would you leave the hotel with all its facilities.

Detta var vår 3:e vistelse på Cordial Mogan Playa och allt helt suveränt, otroligt fin juniorsvit med underbar trädgård, perfekt service av personal och kanonbra mat, ett hotell som passar den som vill ha det bästa.

Returned last week from our first visit to this wonderful hotel. Arrived about 8.30pm and the reception staff could not have been more informative or efficient. There are two sittings for dinner and you can choose which sitting you prefer and are allocated a table for the duration. The range and variety of food available at meal times was amazing, every taste is catered for and was always excellent. There is even a chocolate fountain several times a week at dinner! Our room was on the third floor, spacious with an excellent en suit and balcony, but lacking much of a view due to 2 large palm trees right outside! Excellent range of toiletries provided, you don't need to bring shower gel or soap and usual hotel wall mounted hair dryer. Immaginately designed main building containing bars, main restaurant, a la carte restaurant (pricey) bar with nightly entertainment - free. 2 large pools with plenty of loungers with 3in thick cushions and also lots of umbrellas. Pool towels are also provided. The hotel is set on the edge of the village against a mountainside so that in November when we were there the sun does not get over the ridge to reach the main or lower pool until about 9.30am. The "quiet" pool outside the main building gets the sun about half to three quarters of an hour later. There are lush plantings everywhere and all the plants are labled. A short stroll through the grounds to the back gate takes you to the edge of Puerto Mogan and after two minutes you reach Puerto Mogan beach with restaurants and shops. A minutes further walk takes you to the port and more restaurants and shops and the ferry down the coast. Highly recommended. Would go back again.

Second time in this wonderful hotel. First we got at room with some noise from the street, but when we asked to change, there was no arguing, we soon got a nice quiet room. Very good service, polite and kind staff. Nice pools and this fantastic, huge garden. Short walking through the garden to the charming restaurants by the sea and close to a beautiful mountain for walking or jogging.

Our fourth visit to Gran Canaria and our stay at Cordial Mogan Playa was the best yet. Lovely architecture and a fantastic garden. Service met our high expectations. So did the breakfast buffet and the poolside bar. Already looking forward to our next visit.

My friend and I stayed for 1 week 2-9 November and the hotel exceeded our expectations. All our booking requests were met ie. high floor, south facing quiet room and from the very friendly welcome by Elena to our leaving we just had the best time. Fantastic food, beautiful gardens, great spa treatments, very friendly staff and good choice of exercise sessions throughout day. Loved the architecture of the hotel and how it nestled in the mountains and how the layout felt intimate. Mogan is beautiful and we will certainly return to this hotel. No need to look any further for a holiday in Gran Canaria. A perfect holiday - thank you.

Best holiday ever, fantastic food (buffet, but on another level) Gardens like the Amazon. Friendly staff, nice pools. stunning reception area. Everything you need for a really enjoyable holiday. Thoroughly recommend.

My husband and I stayed here 3rd November for 1 week, half board. We booked via Travel Republic, whom we have booked through previously, and had no problems! and booked our flights with Thomsons who were superb. We were early to check in as travelled by local bus from Maspalomas where we stayed for our 1st week, we were allocated our room on arrival and were able to access it by 2pm which was good, we enjoyed a complimentary cava and orange juice drink on our arrival. The hotel is very plush and has 2 lovely pools, Pool 2 has the activities - e.g meditation, pilates and aqua fit in the pool, and there seems to be more children there, but both pools lovely and never really crowded. The entertainment was hit and miss, and really could be better for such a lovely hotel! There could have been some entertainment around the pool areas at night which there never was, sometimes there was some music in the bar. The shop could have done with being open longer than 4pm in the afternoon. We found the drinks very expensive in the hotel and that the wine wasnt great. We had half board and did the 1st sitting which was 5.30 - 7.30pm, we tended to eat around 6.45 as felt the 2nd sitting was too late for us, and then we could go out and explore afterwards, it was great to walk to the beach area and grab a beer only 1 euro 50 at La Lintern! or pop by the picturesque harbour for a meal or a drink ( we loved it there - and had a beautiful fish dinner at Costa Bella!) We found some places had live music which was great! You can swap your dinner for a lunch which we did, and the lunch is served at pool 2, both pools served meals generally and it was nice to sit and enjoy a beer or two there. The food in the hotel was very good and very varied, I particularly enjoyed the fresh fish cooked while you waited, the buffet was very spread out, but always of good quality. You kept the same table at night, and we had a lovely table in the garden area, which I chose when we arrived when I went to look at the restaurant, my only bug bear is that they seemed to put families with young children out there to dine, and some of them were running around, I dont think it is a hotel for families personally, and think there could maybe a separate sitting for them. Whilst we enjoyed the food in the hotel, it was lovely to eat out too, and everything is so close 5 minutes or so. The supermarket is very close by, and we enjoyed having a gin and tonic on our balcony, the rooms are all air conditioned and have a fridge, we took a kettle,but you could hire one from the hotel and the restaurant were fine if you wanted cups and saucers, It was nice to have a bath and a shower ! On the friday evening, there was a managers cocktail evening and sangria, cava and soft drinks were served in the bar along with canapes, which was a nice touch, and the manager even came round to us at our table at dinner, to wish us a safe journey home and hoped we had enjoyed our holiday. This was our first time in Gran Canaria, and we were very impressed! I can recommend the Friday market, which spreads out round to the other side of the harbour, and a trip on a glass bottom boat, and using the local buses. We also enjoyed staying in Maspalomas, and camel riding.

Another wonderfull stay at the Mogan Playa. Stayed in a junior suite again as the surrounding gardents and being able to take breakfast in the blue building is so worth it. Breakfasts with bucs fizz still a highlight, saw some good acrobatic entertainment in the evenings and the pools still beautifull and not crowded. A new activity (not linked to the hotel) was trying the Spanish game of paddle - a cross between tennis and squash. The courts are opposite the side of the hotel (through the back door by the swimming pool). Only 4 euros for an hour but you have to pay on a card. They will supply bats and ball. Great fun!

I stayed here for a week in July with my 3 month old baby. Hotel surpassed my expectations. Beautiful grounds and pools. Lovely food. Location perfect for a quite holiday. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and very child friendly. Lovely spa here too. I couldn't fault it.

This hotel is unique both in size, hospitality, service, activities and food. One of the best hotels in Spain. Absolutely the best breakfast ever tasted. The rooms are quite big with a varanda, large bathroom og a huge bed. There are a number of pools two of which are quite big and both for children and grovn ups. To each pool there is a pool restaurant with light meals and beverages avaliable. Allways enough space for everyone.

We've stayed here for the past 3 years in October and the high standards have been maintained in all areas. There is little doubt that we will return in 2013 for what has become a chill-out week. We experienced rain here for the first time but consider this to be a one off. One piece of advice:- book a taxi from airport to hotel and for the return journey. 40 minutes in air conditioned style whereas our first stay here was done by coach transfer and took 2 hours and 20 minutes.

As others have said this hotel deserves it TripAdvisor rating. This was our first visit to Playa Mogan and the hotel lived up to our expectations. The staff are very helpful, the two pools are lovely, the grounds immaculate, and only a 5 minute walk to the seafront. Yes you do have to choose a sitting for dinner but we were aware of that before we came and had no problem with it. There was an excellent choice of food at both breakfast and dinner and one evening had a chinese theme. For those with children there is a DVD player in the rooms so bring your own for a rainy day or you can rent them free from the hotel shop by leaving a security deposit. Other things to keep the children entertained are kids club, tennis, games arcade, pool, table tennis and of course the mini disco in the evening. There are two good size pools with plenty of sunbeds so we never had a problem getting one at any point during the day. The pool by reception is the quieter one and slightly deeper so tends to attract more adults than kids. The other pool is at the bottom end of the hotel grounds by the restaurant that opens for lunch so attracted more families but still not noisy. Finally rooms were large with twin beds pushed together with room for a put up bed. Also a good size bathrooom to a good standard. We will come back? Yes one day as plenty of other places to visit first. Tip - Dont bring pool towels unless you are going to the beach as the hotel provides them and you can swap them for fresh ones every day.

spotlessly clean, beautiful surroundings good food and courteous staff. 2nd stay and were not disappointed. Mogan is the perfect place for a relaxing break. The hotel is a short 5 min walk from the beach and 10 mins to the port.

Just returned from my 5th stay at this hotel. Thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait to go again. Food standard was good however possibly a bit limited for vegetarians. The gardens are beautiful having grown considerably since the first trip when they first opened and are very exotic. A new service is a buzzer where you can call for a waitress from your sun lounger round the pool which is very nice. Overall staff very pleasant, decor to a good standard and very clean.

Dette hotellet har vi bodd på tilsammen 4 ganger nå. Og garantert ,- vi kommer igjen. ALT ,- fungerer flott. Utrolig blid og smilende betjening som hilser først,- hver gang ,- og med stor servicegrad. Omgivelser både ute og inne er fantastisk flott. Helt topp mat til alle måltider. Bufee'n på kvelden er helt rå. Bassengene er store og fine ,- og varierer fra 5 til 190 cm dybde. Noe for alle. Har dere ikke vært på Cordial Playa tidligere ,- så løp og kjøp. Blir nå lansert som en av de 10 beste steder i verden å feriere. Gleder oss til neste besøk i 2013

Vrienden van ons waren vol lof over het hotel dus hebben we geboekt. Het was nog beter dan we al dachten. Leuke architectuur, ruime kamers, prachtige tuin, uitermate vriendelijk personeel, super service (ook aan de pools) en prima eten. Wat wil een mens meer? We hebben genoten. Onze kamer met terras lag richting pool en bar. We zaten dus eerste rang voor het dagelijkse avond-entertainment. Gelukkig houden we van muziek. Heinz

This was our third stay at the hotel and once again we were not disappointed. My husband and I went with my sister and her husband for a chill out week and once again The Cordial Mogan Playa was perfect. All the staff are so friendly, the complex is always spotlessly clean and there was a wide variety if delicious food on offer. We dined at the al a carte restaurant, Los Guayres, where we received faultless service and food. If you want a quiet, peaceful and relaxed holiday then this is the perfect place. Mogan, which is a gentle stroll down the road, is lovely with it's pretty harbour, shops and restaurants and there is a lively market every Friday. We will definitely be returning!

El mejor Hotel de Gran Canaria, por sus instalaciones, situacion , comida ... Da mucha tranquilidad y es idoneo para despejarse de la rutina del trabajo. Muy recomendable tanto para familias como en pareja.

What a super hotel the Cordial Mogan Playa turned out to be, We had a great time from arrival to departure. The 2 swimming pools were excellent with plenty of loungers, sun shades and free towels and quite a few shapy areas when it got too hot. The games organised for children and adults were fun and very well run. The buffet breakfast and dinner were very good with just about everything you could think of on offer. The staff were very friendly and efficient and aways available. The evening entertainment was very varied and enjoyable. The en-suite bedrooms were a good size, well maintained and servised by excellent and efficient staff. We would especially recommend the hotel tour which takes place every Friday. Following a fascinating insight into the hotel management we were taken around the backrooms of the hotel and were given an insight into the operation of many departments, laundry,restaurants, swimming pool and many others. The beach area was a five minute walk away, the beach was clean and well maintained with loungers and sun shades available at very reasonable prices. The port area was interesting with many restaurants and shops to be enjoyed. We travelled to Mogan Playa with Thomson Holidays from Gatwick and found them to be well organised with flights both ways on time. The staff were friendly and aways contactable during our holiday. Simply a great holiday with no complaints.

Just back from our annual visit to this fabulous hotel and the good news is that it is even better than before. Great friendly staff and management, free WI FI in rooms and plenty British TV channels if you need a TV fix. Would recommend to get a full board plus deal which gives you house wine, beer and water with lunch and dinner. Buffet restaurant has great selection of well cooked food but prepare yourself for weight gain when you get home after tackling the breakfast! If you are a couple request a table outside the restaurant or in the conservatory for really nice atmosphere. We always have a couple of visits to the a la Carte Los Guayres which has fabulous gourmet meals. If you are on half or full board you receive a 15 euros per person discount on your bill. The rooms although not ultra modern are comfortable and well furnished with a powerfull shower and hot water. A mini bar is available if required and the room safe is not to expensivePlenty of sun beds at both pools, with one more suitable for small children and has a small playground. All in all this hotel is a great place for couples and families with young children to relax and recharge the batteries. I wouldn't however recommend it for teenagers or young couples as the nightlife in Mogan is restricted to restaurants and one ot two small laid back bars. Thanks to all the staff and Henry for their fabulous service already looking forward to next years visit

Il Cordial ci è piaciuto tantissimo. A cominciare dalla hall bellissima e con personale velocissimo al check in. Giardini meravigliosi con piante provenienti da tutto il mondo una più bella dell'altra . Due piscine favolose con vasche idromassaggio che per 2 giorni non siamo andati al mare per quanto si stava bene. Le camere standard senza essere nulla di eccezionale ci hanno fatto passare comunque una settimana comodissima , carine con un bel terrazzo o giardino , pulitissime e con la lodevole idea di lasciare il frigobar vuoto in modo da potersi comprare le bevande preferite . Unico imperdonabile difetto la endemica mancanza del bidet scoperto in Italia qualche anno fa ma ancora semisconosciuto in quasi tutte le latitudini. Per quanto riguarda la ristorazione il Cordial fa una politica da applauso. Prevede solo la mezza pensione con possibilità di scambiare la cena con il pranzo in modo di favorire la sopravvivenza dei ristoranti e i bar di Puerto de Mogan e non far diventare l'hotel una cattedrale nel deserto. Questa è una cosa molto importante che in Spagna sarebbe ora che fosse molto più diffusa. Ristorazione forse non molto varia ma con ingredienti di buona qualità . Grazie ad una recensione precedente che spiegava che il tavolo assegnato la prima sera diventava definitivo ci siamo assicurati una posizione all'aperto fantastica che ci ha permesso cene piacevolissime . E anche se piuttosto esigenti per la prima volta abbiamo cenato tutte le sere in albergo. Complessivamente consigliatissimo siamo stati benissimo e ci torneremo . Qualche idea per migliorarlo : a posto dei bar alla piscina io metterei 2 ristorantini etnici magari Sushi Bar e Caraibico che funzionino anche per cena in modo da variare l'offerta gastronomica e fare un piccolo sforzo per migliorare le camere. Un discorso a parte merita Puerto De Mogan. Bellissima . Una piccola Venezia con case deliziose ristorantini negozi carini . Sembra Porto Cervo ripensata nel 2010. Eravamo entusiasti poi abbiamo visto il mare.... E' Incredibile . Ma come si fa a distruggere un posto così bello fra l'altro su un isola non con il porto come suggerisce qualche recensione precedente ma con uno scarico a mare che raccoglie tutta..... Mogan . Censuratemi ma poi affacciatevi dal romantico ponte a fianco alla spiaggia.... Noleggiate una Seat . Playa De Anfi Playa Des Amadores o le dune di Maspalomas . Non sarà Formentera ma ad Ottobre e Novembre ( la stagione migliore secondo noi per le Canarie ) vale davvero la pena.

We recently stayed here and really liked it, the staff was very accommodating and the place was clean and the grounds beautiful. the walk to the beach is easy and no problems. it's a very relaxing place. they have mattress toppers but the beds still could be a little more softer. we also went to Mogan to get our Open Water Dive Cert at Gran Canaria Dive center located right on the beach. Great place to learn. we are 50 y/o and took the course with our 14 y/o son, the place is fantastic and the water is clear.

Wir haben bereits zum wiederholten Mal unsere Herbstferien in diesem absolut empfehlenswerten Hotel verbracht und werden auf jeden Fall im kommenden Jahr hierhin zurückkehren! Abgesehen von der wunderschönen Gartenanlage, den tollen Pools und den reichhaltigen Büffets verfügt das Cordial Mogán Playa über ein ausgesprochen nettes und herzliches Animations-Team, was vor allem für Familien mit kleineren Kindern ein herausragender Pluspunkt ist! Die Animation ist lediglich ein Angebot für interessierte Gäste – niemand wird auf lästige Art und Weise überredet teilzunehmen. Man merkt dem Team an, dass sie sich untereinander bestens verstehen und selber mit viel Spaß und Herz bei der Sache sind! Besonders hervorzuheben seien an dieser Stelle Saritta, Alina, Franco und François – und natürlich das von unserem Sohn heiß geliebte Hotel-Maskottchen Carlos! :-) Wir waren auf jeden Fall ganz begeistert und haben uns schweren Herzens von allen verabschiedet!

Prima hotel, mooie tuin, goed zwembad en ligt in leuke omgeving. We zaten er half pension. Leker eten, misschien te veel eus en uets te weinig variatie. Thema avonden? Vriendelijke mensen. De mgeing is prima, wij hebben half zwembad, half aan het trand gezeten. Helaas geen 2 pers bedden. Een aanrader.

Spent two nights at the Cordial Mogan Playa after a week in a timeshare in Maspalomas. This hotel is simply stunning and is as good a destination resort as I have seen anywhere in the world....and I have traveled a lot. Elegant luxury in a beautifully landscaped setting. Even the plants in the garden are labeled!! Guests are mainly English and German with a number of Scandanavians. Staff are attentive and communicate effectively in English. Really enjoyed the weekly Wednesday afternoon Staff versus Guests friendly tennis tournament and have the T-shirt to prove it! Buffet food, both breakfast and dinner, was excellent with a wide variety of choice although the large number of guests did create some congestion. Double beds are made up as two side-by-side singles (only suitable for couples going through a bad spell) but on request they will quickly re-sheet the bed as a double. For those with evening flights, and subject to availability, late checkout until 6:00pm for only 30 EU is possible. This is great value and effectively added another day to our stay. Be warned that the in-room safe will stop working at noon. Free in-room wifi runs a bit slow at peak periods but sitting on the balcony or near a window was a big help. Mogan Playa has its own charm. I hope that they never allow anyone to open a night club there. Numerous small restaurants provide a pleasant change to the hotel's catering. For us this is now the only place to stay in all of Gran Canaria and we hope to return for a longer stay one day.

Hotel is very impressive, very clean and very friendly. The staff are excellent. Food is good quality and varied. The entertainment provided is good and children are well catered for. I don't think I would go full board as its nice to go out now and again. They allow you to change dinner for lunch a couple of times which is ideal. Will definatelty return.

Dette hotellet kan virkelig anbefales! Vi er en meget reisevant familie, som har bodd på mange flotte hoteller, men dette hotellet hadde det "lille" ekstra. Ved innsjekking ble vi møtt av noen flotte ansatte, som virkelig kunne service. Har vel sjelden følt oss så velkommne. Da vi er en familie på 4 hadde vi to rom med dør i mellom, veldig greit. Rommene er godt vedlikeholdt med fine bad. Det er to flotte basseng og deilige solsenger. Servering ved solsengene, for de som ønsker det. Hyggelig bar/restaurant ved begge bassengene. Flott spa. Vi hadde frokost og middag inkl. i prisen. Maten er nydelig. Variert og stort buffet med alt man kan ønske seg. Servicen på hotellet er den beste vi har opplevd, imponert over de ansatte: ) Vi gleder oss til å reise tilbake!!!

We travelled to Gran Canaria 15th September arrving late in the evening, following what felt like a really long transfer. This would be my 1st tip - book a private transfer or taxi rather than a communal transfer; the last thing you want is a tour of gran canaria in the dark following a long day travelling. When we arrived, dinner was just finishing so they guy on reception said for us to go down to get something to eat and drink and he'd sort everything out and come up when we are ready. The dinning hall is large with a wide variery of choice that should cater for everyone unless you are looking for a gourmet meal; if that's the case you can book a table in the hotel's a la carte restaurant and receive 15e discount per person - great foof and great wine selection. The food in the main area is good, but can become a little repetetive, so we exchanged are evening meal for lunch and eat out most nights. This seemed a good idea, as the hotel is only 10 minutes from all the restaurants in the village. As we had a junior suite, we had a seperate restaurant by one of the pools; a 30 second walk from our suite made ideal first thing in the morning. From what we were told by some guest, the main restaurant at breakfast can be a bit hectic. There is a good choice with a happy chef who will cook omlettes, eggs how you want, cook your bacon as crisp as you like. The hotle is spotless and set in idillic gardens with great pools. We could always find a sun lounger and the days' we spent by the pool were very relaxing - even when they played the hotel song. Playa de Mogan is a very small resort; we stayed onlyone week and decided we wanted to chill rather than explore - this was enough. If we were staying longer a few trips would have been needed, just for a change of scene. The "playa" and old town are full of restaurants, where you should find somewhere to suite your tastes. We would go back to this hotel as it is well situated, freindly, not loud, clean, great pools and flexible so you can enjoy the town as well.

This was me and my husband's second visit to this hotel in the last 2 years and it was as excellent as the first, if not better. Hotel grounds, service, restaurant cannot be faulted. Puerto Mogan harbour is beautiful and peaceful. No night life just bars and restaurants. We requested a particular room and got it so we were very pleased. Room has small fridge for keeping drinks etc cold. No brewing facilities at hotel, so we took travel kettle and plastic mugs which sufficed. Book this hotel you will not be disappointed. Please feel free to ask any questions.

We have just spent three marvellous weeks on a half board basis at this amazing hotel. It was our second visit, so we were able to make full use of our Cordial Club card, which entitled us to 10% off the extra food and drinks we purchased during the day at the various bars. Well worth applying for one. It also helped ensure our room request was granted: we were in block 7 on the second floor, with a splendid view of the lower pool and even a glimpse of the sea over the rooftops of the picturesque port area. Sun on our balcony all day! It is worth contacting the hotel a week or so before your arrival to have the best chance of obtaining the sort of room you would like. We took advantage of the facility to swap the evening meal for lunch on two occasions, choosing both times to eat at the magnificent Casito Mediterraneo restaurant down by the marina – truly superb food and service. We also ate at the hotel's A la carte restaurant, Los Guayres, one evening - excellent cuisine, highly recommended. For our breakfasts and evening buffets we sat out on the terrace area – very relaxing. You can ask to change tables, if you are not satisfied with your original allocated spot. As with everything else, the staff are prepared to bend over backwards to meet your wishes. Any problems, report them immediately, and within a matter of minutes something will be done to resolve them. We had an initial issue with our safe, but all was sorted within half an hour by the two technicians who arrived very promptly. Yes, you can single out the odd feature that could perhaps be improved, but the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive. We will almost certainly return for a third visit soon. It has become our favourite place to relax and chill out.

Andre gang vi var på Cordial. Denne gangen i oktober. Temperaturen lå rundt 30 grader og sol hver dag. Servicen på hotellet er fenomenal i alle ledd,fra rengjøring,resepsjon og oppvartere i frokostrestauranten og La Fula. Hotellet ligger i en passelig promenadetur til den sjarmerende fiskelandsbyen Mogan

Like an oasis in the desert! The brochure & website do not do justice to this hotel - the setting is beautiful - The rooms are fine - and the food in the restaurant is very good. We rarely had to queue, but it was worth it for the freshly cooked steaks and fish. This is a 4* hotel offering excellent value for money - very impressive

We choose this hotel in part from the TA reviews and it didn't disappoint. We are 3 couples in our 50's and spent much of the time just chilling in the immaculately kept grounds. The public area's are all very clean, smart and well maintained butthe grounds were particularly impressive. We found the restaurant system ok, you can flex between the early and late sittings if you tell the restaurant manager and the total buffet had decent quality food with a huge variety. Staff were universally happy and helpful. Booze prices reasonable, beer 3.7 euro's for 0.4litre, wine around 18 euro' for decent bottle. It is a 5 minute walk to a very cute but busy marina area and there is a SPAR nearby if you want additional provisions. All in all, a very good choice for some winter sun. And definitely the prettiest cove on then island. Only negative point was the bloody annoying habit of having to reserve sun beds early on to get a group together. Should be banned!

es la segunda vez que me hospedo en este hotel y para mi es el numero uno de todos los que he visitado . Mucha vegetacion muy bien cuidada , personal muy servicial y amable . La gastronomia con unos asados superiores en calidad . Seguro que volveré.

Absolutely beautiful hotel, the grounds are fantastic, staff do friendly and helpful. We upgraded to a junior suite which although lovely room spotlessly clean as was everything in the hotel the problem was we were in 9013 and it was quite dark, with only been there for a week we didn't say anything but if we had been staying for 2 weeks we would of asked to be changed and from speaking to a couple at the hotel they asked to be changed and they were given another room straight away. I cannot praise this hotel enough, in actual fact we had booked to go to Mexico for the 6 th time next year as we love it and didn't think we could find anywhere we would love as much, it we have that is why we have cancelled Mexico and transferred it to the cordial moganplaya for next September. We also love the area of puerto mogan it is lovely, there is no pressure when you are walking round to go into bars or restaurants, no time share reps coming up to you. We were half board in the hotel so we diidnt eat out it what we seen of the food that was served it looked lovely and really ample portions especially in a bar/restuarant called the Zoo, and the staff were lovely with 1 of the girls coming from my area which was nice. I could go on and on about the hotel and the area. But if you read all other reviews they all agree with me. If anyone does find anything well all I can say they must be very very hard to Please.

We stayed here from 13th - 20th September 2012, and from the moment we arrived the quality, service and hospitality were exceptional. Having arrived at 9.30pm, we expected a 'plated up' salad, however we were greeted with a glass of cava on checking in followed by our evening meal in the restaurant! Our room in Block A Level 3 was perfect, overlooking the beautiful gardens and one of the pools - lovely to sit out in the evenings listening to the singer in the pool bar and watching the sun go down with a G & T! We booked Full Board Plus, which was exceptional value. The quality and selection of food at all meal times was excellent. We were always able to have a lazy long lunch, out of the strong sun, with a bottle of wine sitting out on one of the restaurant terraces. At the evening meal you were allocated a table for the full stay of your holiday - this was really good as you got to know the people around you and the waiting staff always knew who to expect, what your drinks order would be, and had a chat about your day. As other reviewers have said, the grounds at this hotel are outstanding - the gardens are so beautiful and very well maintained. Sunbed availability was never a problem, there was no need to get up early at this hotel - and the lovely thick mattresses made them so comfortable. Access to the resort of Puerto Mogan is only a five minute walk. The resort is lovely and uncommercialised, a lovely safe beach at one side and 'little Venice' at the other. The only possible negatives here is that they have made 'beach' areas around the pools with very coarse grit like sand - this becomes very hot and is difficult to walk on and does end up being trailed into the pools! Also I would advise a taxi transfer rather than the bus that comes as part of your holiday package. The resort is not that far from the airport but on the transfer bus there are many drop offs in Puerto Rico, Taurito and Amadores which prolongs the journey on very narrow twisting roads!! We will definitely be returning to this hotel and have recommended it to many others!!

What can I say , great place to stay food is fantastic room is clean and all you could ask for, all the staff are great and always helpful, it happened that it was my birthday today and when returning to my room the hotel had laid on a bottle of champagne. The resort is also great with some lovely places to eat, if your looking for a break you need look no more.

Having read several of the other reviews, all can do is endorse their comments.It is a truly astounding setting beautiful, quiet and peaceful . The gardens are superbly laid out. Each plant whether bush , shrub, tree or cactus has an ID plaque with it's botanical name. Our room ,in block 7 of 9, was clean and spacious. The staff are brilliant. Every member of staff we met was helpful, friendly and efficient. I cannot think of a single negative comment. Ideal if you want a restful break in a superb setting

The hotel is stunning, from the atrium style reception with glass lifts to the magnificent tropical gardens. The rooms are comfortable and very clean and of a reasonable size. As far as the food is concerned......Breakfast has an enormous choice of cooked food as well a an excellent selection of breads and pastries. Lunch is served in the Blue building and is adequate especially the fresh cooked fish. Dinner is also very good with something for everyone, especially the roasts, grills and fresh fish. We were on full board plus which meant wine, beer or soft drinks with lunch and dinner a good choice. We also had a meal in the Guayres and even though had a surcharge it was well worth it. To end the day the evening entertainment and the bars were first class. Will definitely return.

After two years of illness my husband and I wanted a holiday in a peaceful, picturesque resort, a first class hotel and guaranteed sun! We were certainly not disappointed. We chose the hotel mainly through reading the many reviews on TripAdvisor. It is well worth reading as many of these as you can if you are considering the hotel. I found out a great deal of useful information and it prepared me well for our two week holiday. I e-mailed the hotel with a room request and received a prompt reply stating that they would do their utmost to fulfil the request. We were delighted when shown to our room that it was exactly what we had hoped for. We found that the staff, from being greeted by a porter as our taxi arrived right up to the receptionist who checked us out, were friendly, helpful and professional. The hotel is beautifully designed both inside and out. We were more than happy with our large, comfortable room.The fridge provided was very welcome and well-used, but it certainly didn't stop us using the bars in the hotel. We loved the well-cared for gardens and all the amenities the hotel has to offer and its location in Puerto de Mogan is ideal. We went on the hotel tour on the first Friday of our holiday. It was very informative and Jens was enthusiastic and entertaining. We had booked half board and chose the second sitting for dinner. We enjoyed the entertainment pre-dinner in the Fula bar, especially the amazing singer David Searle who performs each Tuesday and Sunday. He has a repertoire of hundreds of songs and sings in a number of languages. We made a point of going to hear him each time he was there. We loved the breakfasts and for this meal you choose where you want to sit. This was never a problem at whatever time we arrived. In the evening we were allocated a table in a beautiful area just outside the main dining room.This wouldn't suit everyone as it was a long way to go to the varoius buffet stations for our food, but we loved it. We had intended to eat out much more than we did, but because of the table we had we only ate out on two evenings. We are not lovers of hotel buffets but sometimes to get everything else we want we have to put up with it. However, there is plenty of choice and it was never too crowded. On the evenings we ate out we exchanged our dinner for lunch which is taken in the Tamaragua restaurant by the larger pool. This was a lovely experience - very relaxing - and there are tables inside or outside in either the sun or the shade. The only thing we didn't enjoy about the holiday was having to pack up go home, but we are planning to return as soon as we can.

My husband & I have just spent an excellent 2 weeks at the Cordial Mogan Playa. Having read the reviews before booking, we were confident that we were in for a treat & we were not disappointed. All the staff were so friendly & helpful ensuring that we had a perfect holiday from beginning to end. The grounds were really beautiful & both pools were great, no problems finding sun loungers & the aqua aerobics with Sarah was great fun. We e-mailed a week before arrival requesting a top floor room overlooking the pool & our request was granted. Puerto de Mogan is a delightful resort & hopefully won't get any bigger. We can highly recommend this hotel & look forward to returning.

Vi reiste som par i vinterferien 2012, og nå skal vi bestille for to uker i neste vinterferie. Nydelige omgivelser, god mat, godt renhold og svært elskverdig betjening. Veldig fornøyd med frokostbuffeten med alt som hjertet og magen begjærer! Forøvrig er Puerto Mogan en nydelig liten plass som passer oss to meget godt. Der kan man komme seg ut på fjelltur, båtturer, bade og oppleve marked. Anbefales på det varmeste

This was the first time I have stayed at this hotel and I was not disappointed, food and staff were of a very high standard ,the rooms were very comfortable and clean, both pool area's were lovely. Puerto Mogan is a very pretty resort with a good choice of restaurants and bars . I look forward to returning in the near future.........

a very relaxing holiday, in a comfortable, clean and friendly hotel, beautifully kept gardens, good pool areas, good variety of food - we will definately be returning, This holiday was shared wih a girl friend, but I will definately return again with my husband. I would not say that the hotel is ideal for young teenagers as there is not enough evening entertainment, and I think it would spoil the overall telaxing experience of the more mature guests to have youngsters roaring around

My wife an I are just back from a weeks stay at the Cordial Mogan Playa. We last stayed there in 2007. It was an excellent hotel then and I'm glad to report that it has continued to improve since our last visit. All aspects of the hotel have been improved..Rooms, food selection, grounds, operational efficiency. Not that any of these areas were lacking before. All staff are extremely friendly, helpful and efficient. This is an ideal place to unwind and relax. The village of Porta de Mogan is very quiet and beautiful. If you are after an all night party scene, you will not find it here. The hotel continues to refuse to offer an "all inclusive" package as it believes this would have a detrimental effect on other businesses in the village. Which is very commendable. All the normal "service" aspects of a hotel of this size are carried out "out of sight", in the vast underground world of the hotel i.e. laundry, catering, delivery's, parking, rubbish storage/collections. If you take the "Hotel Tour" (every Friday @ 11.00 starting from the reception area), a guide explains about the hotel and will show you round all the surface areas of the hotel, explaining about various aspects, history as you go. The second half of the tour goes below the hotel and shows you are the functional service areas etc. You will find it to be as impressive, clean and efficient as the above ground operation. This hotel consistently delivers above it's start rating. We could not recommend this hotel enough. A hidden gem.

Perfecto, fueron unas de mis mejores vacaciones, cogí media pensión y pagaba el menú del medio día (precio considerable de 3 platos). El servicio fue bueno, la decoración perfecta, y situado cerca de la playa, aunque tenia una piscina enorme acompañado de varios jacuzzis. Muy romántico.

We have returned from 2 weeks at this hotel. We went there last year for 1 week and liked it so much decided to go back this year. The hotel itself is stunning. From reception, to both pools, the bars, the gardens and the restaurant. We spent our time at the second pool as this had the entertainment!! The entertainment team work exceptionally hard and totally understand that many of us just want to chill and soak up the sun. However, should you be able to prise yourself off the sunbed there is plenty to do. Highly recommended is the aqua gym classes at 12pm everyday. It is hard work but fun too and Sarah really gets you to work off a few of the calories you have put on from eating too much good food. Also, play the cocktail game everyday...it really is throwing your flipflop or chucking a dice...hardly too much effort and the cocktail should you win is delicious. Waterpolo in the afternoons is a hoot!! A BIG thankyou to Jens and Francios for being such fun and getting us involved!! The restaurant for both breakfast and dinner is amazing and with all good intentions to eat heathily it really is hard when you see what is on offer. Always 3 types of fish cooked to order, always steak cooked to order and always 3 meats on the carvery. Be prepared for a lot of the meat to be coated in garlic, not sure what the other reviewer was talking about but there is plenty of it in a lot of the food. We did eat out a couple of times and swapped for lunch just for a change and not because the food was not good enough. The rooms are spacious and clean. Yes, a little tired ( we had a handle off of one of the drawers and a wonky light) but really we only went to the room to sleep and get changed so were more than happy. A nice touch is that wi-fi is free for the duraion of your stay which is unusual. The service was excellent from the housekeeping to restaurant, to bars and reception. Should you have any complaints just mention them at the the time and they are dealt with straight away...also the hotel sub director is onhand most days to speak with you directly. In short I recommend this hotel for a quiet break to do as much or as little as you like in fabulous surroundings and great service. Would love to go back next year ..........

My wife and i have been to this hotel several times over the last few years and it is truly a fantastic hotel, extreamly clean, very easy check in,very helpfull and nice staff most of wich speak two or three languages, breakfast,lunch and eveing meals are buffet type but the food quality is very good, two swimming pools and plenty of sun loungers, nice bars with a very good selection of drinks, all in all as i said before a Fantastic hotel, the little resort of Mogan is also nice,clean with a good selection of bars and resturants, our favorite is the irish tavern.

Stayed for a week at Puert Mogan a fishing village that has become a chic resort but carefully developed (so far) and hopefully easier access in the future (when road tunnels opened) will not encourage the horrific development of places like Puerto Rico. The hotel is brilliant with all facilities. My wife unusually thought she could stay for a week and not bother visiting elswhere. Buildings are immaculate and well articulated, reception area is spectacular. It seemed all rooms have balcony or patio with a view. Buffet which is so vast and spread out that you need to be in training to get around restaurant! Separate a la carte and other restaurant for those not on half or full board. Excellent entertainment, no need to go out at night with a guy called David Searle singing on a terrace an absolute joy before 22.00 show (They like tribute acts) but all quality and a variety. The grounds are an immaculate tropical jungle where any leaf of flower that fall is cleared up before the next day, water falls and pools,quite amazing. Two big swimming pools suitable for all, the pool adjacent to the main reception is best if not an activity fan. New spa was not cheap. Recommended by a Thomas Cook travel rep. as rural, up market and relaxing. Five stars. later informer on of the best three hotels on the island

El hotel es precioso, tiene muy buenas instalaciones, y unos jardines maravillosos, incluso tiene un pequeño estanque con peces de colores. La comida muy buenas y variada, y el trato del personal inmejorable, pero sobre todo destacar el equipo de animación todos muy simpaticos y amables,siempre dispuestos hacer que lo pases bien, en especial Sara super divertida y muy dulce con los niños, mis hijas quedaron encantadas con ella.

we spent our honeymoon here in 2010 it was a suprise wedding gift from my wife.when we arrived,after being in the coach from from las palmas airport and seeing some of the hotels which other people were being dropped off at i was concerned that it would be disappointing,but when we arrived it was the wow factor.It was an impressive entrance to the hotel and the staff were very friendly & welcoming.we arrived at night so couldn`t see much ,but when we were taken to our room we walked past the pool area and was amazed at how beautiful it was at night.next morning looked out over our balcony and wow was all i could say,it was like being in the tropical section of kew gardens.since then we have been back 4 times & are going back this year in october.i love the place, people are so friendly,the grounds are stunning and well looked after.

Positief: - ligging (dicht bij zee, prachtig dorpje /haven, bijzonder rustige omgeving) - vriendelijk personeel - kader van hotel (mooie tuin, mooie zwembaden, zicht op bergen, ...) - mooie inkomhal - uitstekende keuken - kamer tot in de puntjes verzorgd (we hadden een junior suite) Negatief: - groot domein dus relatief lange afstanden te overbruggen - kiezelsteentjes aan en in zwembad

La verdad es que después de leer las buenas opiniones en tripadvisor me cree unas grandes espectativas hacia este hotel y la verdad es que las vi cumplidas con creces. De echo visitamos otros hoteles de la isla durante la estancia y este nos pareció el mejor. El hotel es magnifico, a unos 200 metros de la playa de Mogán, instalaciones buenísimas, personal y amabilidad de este, habitaciones, limpieza, un jardín botánico digno de mencionar y ver, lagunas, cascadas, excelentes piscinas con buena temperatura playa artificial y un sin fin de pequeños detalles magníficos, el hall de entrada precioso. Quizás y por buscar algo que para nuestra opinión fue menos de lo que esperamos fue el almuerzo que digamos es menos copioso y variado y el spa que no es digamos grandioso. En definitiva un gran hotel merecedor de ser el mejor de Gran Canaria, de las buenas criticas que tiene y al que volveríamos

We stayed at the Cordial Mogan Playa on 3rd Septemeber for 7 nights. We arrived around 9.30pm, before we checked in the friendly reception staffed rushed us off to Dinner before checking in to make sure that we did not go hungry, after enjoying a lovely meal we were offered champage/juice/water while checking in. We were walked to our room with a Bell Boy to take our bags, he pointed out some key parts of the hotel so that we knew where to go when we started our first day in the morning. Our room was very lovely, with a larger wardrobe than i have at home! Great bathroom area and a comfortable bedroom space with a large television and DVD player. Balcony was also lovely and gave a nice view of the sun coming up behind the mountatins in the morning. Breakfast and evening meal were amazing, the biggest choice of food you could imagine, and our impression was, if there was something you wanted that wasn't already there, they would arrange it, Restaurant staff were great, everybody greeted you when entering and leaving, and the efficent waiting staff never left a drink or plate on the table for long. Carvery for evening meal was great, always a variety of meats and fish to choose from. Not only was the food amazing, there was a great choice of places to sit, inside and outside! We loved the pool, we even prefered it to the lovely Mogan beach! We chose to lay by the pool that was designed for families, as we found the adults only pool slightly boring, with no noise at all. Both pools beautiful however, with bar areas by each. Activities took place in this pool which we were more than happy to watch/take part in during the day. All other facilities were great, could not fault anything. The grounds of this hotel are beautiful, every flower shrub and tree look perfectly placed and the waterfalls throughout the hotel give a very special atmosphere, they can be seen from the Restaurant, in the entrance and in other areas of the hotel also. Mogan is a beautiful resort with a gorgeous little Harbour, a very quiet place to relax, so perhaps not the place for those that like an exciting night life. Our maid was amazing, every day we came back to a spotlessly clean room, she even folded our clothes and tidied our dressing table, such great service. Overall this hotel made for a very special week away - would come back in a heartbeat!

My husband and I have just returned from a weeks stay at the hotel. Puerto Mogan is a lovely resort and the Mogan Playa is in great location close to the beach and marine. On arrival the reception staff were excellent and check in was quick. Our room was a lovely double room overlooking the pool. Room was spotless and maid and had all facilities including fridge. The pool and surrounding grounds are exquisite, the only complaint is that the hotel says it has a no reservation policy for sun loungers but it doesn't enforce this. It wasn't a problem whilst we stayed there as it was low season but still a bit annoying. Restaurant food ( breakfast and evening meal is of a high standard) waiting staff are excellent, just cant fault any of the service. lots of facilities at this hotel, nothing is too much of a problem for the staff. A great hotel in a great resort and we will definitely be going back soon.

Nous avons passé deux très belles semaines au Cordial Mogan Playa ! L'hôtel est situé dans le plus coin de l'île près du joli port de Mogan. Chambre spacieuse, belles piscines avec transats et parasols toujours disponibles et jacuzzis. Buffet à profusion avec tous les soirs des grillades de poissons et de viandes et de multiples palts et desserts à découvrir. L'hôtel est très propre et proche de la plage. Il dispose d'incroyables jardins fleuris autour d'immenses palmiers. L'atmosphère de l'hôtel invite au repos et au calme. Pas de discothèque, ni de musique à la piscine. Bref, nous n'avons qu'une seule envie, d'y retourner pour profiter du climat merveilleux de Gran Canaria.

Just returned from a weeks holiday at this amazing hotel which looks and is lovely, Service was very good we were greeted with some bucks fiz on arrival The food was very good and plentyful the evening entertainment was average but we enjoyed it. Puerto de Mogan is a really pretty place take a stroll down there and dont miss the market day on Friday. If you only do one trip out do the Palmitos park if you like your animals and dolphins.

Me my sister and father stayed here in August for 10 nights. I booked the hotel because of it's great ratings on tripadvisor. It was everything I expected and more. The food was great - wide selection, tasty, frequently replenished and fresh. We were on a half board basis. The pools were very good. There is a more chilled out pool with a great pool bar for lunch, La Fula. The calamari was a personal fave! The other pool was our favourite and had the daily activities such as water polo - a great opportunity to meet other guest at the hotel. The highlight for my sister and I was the animation team of the hotel. We loved there energy and commitment to make guest feel so welcome. In particular; Francois, Alina and Sarita. They ARE so much fun! The musica in the disco/club song after the evening entertainment were so catchy. Tacata if you know what I mean! We even met Sergio Rivero who sang one night (a spanish x factor singer). The hotel was kept immaculate and the restaurant staff were so helpful and polite. I know this was an awesome holiday because everyday since I've been home I think about being there... alot! Thank you Cordial Mogan Playa Hotel for such an unforgettable experience!!!

Lo escogimos guiados por las opiniones de esta web, y aún así no me esperaba tanta excelencia en el trato, la calidad de la comida, la eficiencia del servicio, la amabilidad del personal. Destacar que en toda la semana no tuvimos que hacer ninguna cola, ni en recepción, ni para desayunar, ni cenar, ni en los ascensores, ni si quiera en los jacuzzis de las piscinas, piscinas excelentes para los niños, las tumbonas con colchones son comodísimas. Pasé toda la semana esperando el fallo y no lo encontré. Fue todo perfecto, lástima que descubrí tarde que los asados de carne eran excelentes, destacaban entre otros platos deliciosos. No sé si por todo esto o por el buen ambiente del personal, pero es que incluso el resto de huespedes eran también muy agradables, destacar que hay muchos de las propia isla, supongo que conocedores de la calidad del hotel. Todo el hotel parece un jardín botánico, maravilloso, lleno de plantas, cada una con su etiqueta y también una jaula de más de dos metros de alto llena de canarios cantarines. Y el pueblo para mi de los más bonitos de la isla. Volveremos seguro. Gracias al personal.

Stayed with my wife and granddaugter and we had a superb time.The staff cannot do enough for you,the hotel has to be seen and explored to do it justice.My recommendation is the majority of people we meet said they would return again.

E' stata veramente una splendida vacanza. Il volo dall'Italia dura meno di 4 ore e si raggiunge un isola che sembra un altro pianeta! L'albergo è ottimo, immerso in un profumato giardino tropicale, si mangia benissimo, le camere sono confortevoli e spaziose, nelle piscine c'è spazio per tutti senza creare sovraffollamento Il personale gentile e disponibile. La hall ricca di palme, grotte e cascatelle che rendono l'ambiente quasi magico. La spiaggia si trova a pochi minuti dall'hotel e, avendo a disposizione un'automobile, in una mezz'oretta di viaggio si possono raggiungere località che offrono qualsiasi tipo di divertimento. Un'esperienza da ripetere!

I am in the midst of packing in preparation for flying home to the UK. I have been here for a weeks half board with Thomson holdiay. I don't usually have much time for travel reps but, in this case, John, the Thomson travel rep was simply first class! Incredibly knowledgable about the resort and clearly passionate about his job. We arrived at the hotel via a "ResortHoppa" transfer, a company I always use and find them to be first class. A tip for anyone who finds bus travel difficult is to definitely book a taxi transfer as the road from the airport to puerto Mogan is horrendous!!! On arrival, we were greeted with friendly staff and a glass of champagne, juice or water. As we were too late for dinner, the hotel had laid on a courteu light buffet which, although basic, was hugely appreciated. The room (4404) overlooking the quiet pool was spacious, clean and very comfortable. The hotel itself is stunning. Lush grounds and incredibly well maintained. The pool and other communal areas are lovely. Plenty of bed space around the quiet pool. I can't comment about the south pool, as I didn't go there, although this is more geared towards families. The restaurant is well run with excellent staff and beautifully presented food. The range of food is excellent and of a very good quality. This holiday has lived up to every expectation and more and I would recommend it to everyone except families with older teenagers

We stayed here in May and like many other reviewers, can't fault it. Food was great, rooms were spacious, comfortable and very clean, pool areas spotless and you could either choose a quiet spot or more lively if you wanted to. Free Wifi access kept our daughter happy and for us there was just the right level of entertainment; something to tempt you off your sunbed during the day if you wanted to and also some quite good acts on a night if you wanted an evening in the hotel. A short walk to the harbour was well worth it, with plenty of bars and restaurants to choose from and the market was worth a look. We didn't see any groups of young men or women and certainly not the "scooter" culture you get in many resorts. Our teenage daughter loved it and would go back - unheard of! The proximity of two large supermarkets was very handy to stock up on soft drinks for around the pool and something stronger for the balcony. If you are looking for a bustling hotel and busy nightlife, this is not for you; this is simply a fantastic, quality hotel which seems to get everything just about right.

We find it difficult to find fault with this hotel. As many people have said before, it is beautifully situated in stunning gardens. Our accommodation was very good indeed and we found the choice of food, restaurants and range of facilities all just what you hope for in a holiday hotel. It is near but not on the beach and entertainment finishes earlier than some might wish but this is definitely a hotel and location we would wish to return to again and again. We found the staff throughout the hotel very helpful and obliging including the enthusiastic animination team who work tirelessly. We left a small personal item behind which Monica in Reception went to great lengths to return to us in the UK so she gets a special mention from us. If you are looking for a resort with boisterous night life then other resorts on the island will suit you better. If you are looking for a quiet, attractive resort and a very good hotel with high standards, then Puerto de Mogan and the Cordial will not disappoint.

We spent nearly 2 weeks at the Cordial Mogan Playa recently. It was our second time since we liked the hotel last year. I like that the hotel's staff is extremely helpful, friendly and genuine and staying in hotels for business on a regular basis, I believe that the hotel has created an unique atmosphere that makes the guest feel special. Everywhere you will be find beautiful gardens which invite for walks. The concept of the hotel seems to fit well in with nature and their environment. Personally, I find the exotic birds and the cactus garden interesting. The hotel offers a variety of entertainment. I enjoyed the evenings with David, a singer, who has an incredible range of song choices and a fantastic voice. Also the Spa Area is outstanding. Again, the staff is very friendly and supportive and the massages have been excellent. Beside, the Spa has been newly renovated and are an oasis of relaxation. I also like Mogan which offers a small beach, a variety of restaurants and a few shops. From the port operates boots to a few places alongside the coast. Overall, a fantastic experience and worthwhile visiting. I highly can recommend the Cordial Mogan Playa for your stay.

EL hotel muy completo, las instalaciones del hotel son muy buenas. Preciosos jardines y maravilloso spa. Se diferencian dos piscinas una para relax y otra con animación; Los animadores son excelentes! muy agradables, atentos y siempre dispuestos a sacarte una sonrisa! Nuestros hijos pasaban el día en el miniclub, quedaron encantados con Sarita una de las animadoras, una chica muy dulce y simpática. También dispone de varis bares en los que puedes elegir ver un show o simplemente ir a tomar algo con la familia por la noche. Lo único que falla un poco es la situación ya que no hay muchos lugares donde ir fuera del hotel, pero sin duda volveremos en cuanto podamos!

Opinión escrita el 20 agosto 2012 Appena rientrata da Gran Canaria. Ho ritorvato il mio albergo preferito come l'ho l'lasciato 12 mesi fa. Al momento della prenotazione ho richiesto la junior suite dell'anno scorso e all'arrivo... con grande gioia ho appreso che mi avevano assegnato proprio quella, la 9022!! Cosa si vuole di più dalla vita? Personale sempre sorriente e disponibile, dalla reception, ai camerieri, alle signore delle pulizie. Anche quest'anno abbiamo noleggiato l'auto per tutti i 17 giorni di soggiorno, il parcheggio coperto sotto all'albergo era perfetto. La Spa è completamente rinnovata, meravigliosa. Consiglio un pomeriggio di relax a tutti.

Voor ons het beste hotel dat we al bezochten. Zeer mooie hall met schitterende beplanting en waterval. 2 mooie grote zwembaden met gratis handdoekenservice. Er waren ook steeks ligzetels vrij op elk moment van de dag. Mooie standaardkamer met alles op en aan. Ontbijt en avondeten waren excellent. Keuze te veel. 2 zwembadbars en ook ook bar/disco binnen met 's avonds allerlei animatie voor groot en klein. Fantastisch animatieteam om kids en volwassenen te entertainen. Vriendelijkheid en behulpzaamheid was voor ons top. Tgo hotel ligt kleine shopping op en 300 m heb je de haven van mogan met zijn strand, pedalohuur en allerlei watersportmogelijkheden. Uitstap met duikbook en mogelijkheid tot boottrip naar oa puerto rico. Markt op vrijdag. We gaan normaal nooit 2x naar hetzelfde hotel maar dit is voor herhaling vatbaar.

Mi marido, mi hija de 6 años y yo nos hemos alojado en este hotel a principios de Agosto, durante una semana. La experiencia no pudo ser mejor. El hotel es precioso, muy cuidado (tanto las habitaciones como las instalaciones), todo inmaculado. Las opciones de ocio están muy bien:mini club para los niños, competiciones en la piscina para los adultos, espectaculos nocturnos... el desayuno y la cena eran buffet, la variedad y calidad era buenísima y el restaurante era maravilloso. Por último quisiera destacar la amabilidad y cordialidad del personal del hotel, se desviven por hacer tu estacia lo más agradable posible. Volveremos sin duda!!!

This is our second time to the cordial mogan playa and it is still our all time favourite hotel. The food a fantastic buffet with great choice. Well worth asking for a table on the decking overlooking the small waterfall and pond. The staff again couldn't do more for us and are just so friendly. The pools are brilliant and are heated or kept at an even temperature which means you can go in the all year round. The pool area is lovely and clean and tidy and the pool lifeguards are really helpful. The animation was great especially the 9 -13 year old maxi club which catered for the older kids by doing bowling, water polo table tennis and then some games (like flip flop throwing) in the shade. Top marks for the hotel again! We will definately be back as soon as possible. As to Puerto de Mogan a beautiful harbour with colourful flowers and boats with great restaurants. Small but lovely - the beach was quite busy when we went in August but that was expected. The sea water was a little on the cool side.

We just arrived home, after our second stay at the Cordial. As others have stated, we were a bit worried if it would be wise to return, since our stay last year was fantastic! We weren't disappointed though: From the greeting with Cava in the fabulous lobby, till the end of our stay, we had no regrets about returning - at all! The rooms are spotless, the grounds are beautiful and the pools are simply magnificent. Upon arrival in the room we called the reception for a bed topper, since the ''king'' bed is actually two singles pushed together. Within minutes the bed was arranged to our satisfaction. Later on, a balcony chair accidentally broke. Again we called the reception with the same result: A new chair was brought instantly. As to the food, we only ordered the breakfast (had the half board last year) since we wanted to make sure to ''get out of the hotel'' at night, since the harbor is lovely. The breakfast didn't disappoint with the lavish amount of choices. Anyone who faults the breakfast at the Cordial must be very, very, very (very) picky :-) We spend a lot of time by the pool at the main building ordering coffee, drinks, snacks and so on, and found the prices quite reasonable for a four star establishment. What we did miss was a coffee maker at the room - that would be awesome for those slow mornings sitting on the balcony. But hey: take a short walk to the restaurant, and your coffee is set before you as you are still settling into your chair. There is just such a great ''feel'' to this place, that's hard to explain. Three words might do it though: You Feel Welcome! To sum it up: JUST GO! :-)

Wir waren sehr zufrieden. Es war ein schöner Erholungsurlaub, und durch die Größe der Anlage fielen die vielen Gäste gar nicht auf. Auch beim Essen hatte man genug Ruhe (wenn man zur ersten Sitzung abends hinging) und konnte auch immer im Wintergarten draußen essen.

My brother and I stayed at this hotel last year. I recommend this hotel, it is very nice and the staff are always very pleasant. We were there for a special birthday and the hotel manager came to our table with champagne and later on in the room was a cake. Great hotel and Puerto de Mogan is a lovely place to go.

Ya hemos estado varias ocasiones en el hotel. Nos encanta. Es un lugar muy entretenido para toda la familia. Entre otras cosas, cuenta con una ludoteca donde dejar a los niños con unas cuidadoras que, además, son animadoras del resto de actividades del hotel. Sara, en especial se ocupa muy bien de los pequeños españoles: les pinta la cara con dibujos chulísimos, dibuja con ellos, juega, realizan manualidades juntos, les divierte, y es muy cariñosa. ¡¡Arriba Sara!!

Vi ser nå frem til neste opphold her, det blir 5 gangen. Området er fantastisk, solrikt med fin have med mange busker og trær og godt skjermet mot ubehagelig vind. Maten er førsteklasses buffet både frokost, lunsj og middag til rimelig pris.

We stayed a week, and enjoyed every single moment. The breakfast was excellent, and we enjoyed sitting by the artificial lake with a waterfall. The staff was friendly, and we got a free parking space for our rental car. Free Wifi

Cet hôtel est excellent à tous les points de vue : un emplacement idéal dans le très joli port de Puerto mogan, des installations magnifiques très haut de gamme, un jardin tropical paradisiaque et bien entretenu, des chambres très bien décorées, une propreté parfaite, des repas excellents, très variés et très bien présentés. Le service de surcroît et très raffiné : le dernier jour le maître d'hôtel vient même vous saluer en prononçant votre nom pour vous souhaiter un bon retour dans votre pays. On pourrait croire que mes remarques sont exagérées, mais je précise que je suis une personne très critique qui a voyagé dans le monde entier et qui a de nombreux points de comparaison en ce qui concerne les hôtels quatre étoiles. Je reconnais que j'ai été emballé et que j'espère pouvoir y retourner à une période plus propice que le moindre d'aout!!!!

Hemos podido disfrutar de unos dias en este presioso hotel la semana pasada y sin lugar a dudas nos hemos llevado un muy buen recuerdo y unas ganas de volver en cuando podamos tomarnos unos dias libres. Sinceramente no teniamos muy claro que hotel visitar y el Tripadvisor nos ayudo mucho,, todo lo que hablan de el es asi, es presioso las habitaciones estan muy limpias, la comida es de un 5 estrellas, las isntalaciones son estupendas las piscinas climatizadas de lo mejor y su presioso Spa recien reformado, todo de maravilla y por supuesto lo mejor de lo mejor es su personal gente con ganas de hacerte pasar unas maravillosas vacaciones se vuelcan en sus clientes de verdad un gran equipo, muy sonrientes y alegres, solemos ir a hoteles de 5 estrellas y este no tiene nada que envidiar, todo lo contrario las merece.Y hacer una mencion especial al Subdirector Marcos que se porto en todo momento maravilloso con nosotros y felicitar a toda la Dirección por tener en los momentos que corren un personal tan especial, que entiende lo importante que deben de atender a sus clientes. Muchas gracias a todo el personal.

Our first visit to Gran Canaria, we could not have selected a better place to stay. Had a great holiday in beautiful Mogan, 2 Adults and 2 Children. Could not find any fault with this hotel - pleanty to do, great pools, grounds were superb and food great. A real little gem.

Just had 10 days at Cordial Mogan Playa. Rooms very comfortable - we had a small garden outside our room (we were on the first level in block b). Buffet is fantastic. Everything you could want for breakfast and at night there was a choice of 3 fish being cooked freshly and 5 meats. A great choice for all ages and appetites. We had the 6pm dinner sitting out of choice and had no experience of (a) noisy children running around (b) slow collection of dirty plates - in fact some nights they were ready to take your plate away the moment you finished. There is also an 8.30pm sitting for those that don't want to have small children around. Not loads to do in the local area but the hotel has a pool table, table tennis table, air hockey and a 4 lane ten pin bowling alley. We will definitely go back.

Recently spent 12 days at this amazing hotel and had a wonderful time. It was our first visit to Gran Canaria and we arrived late at night, in total darkness, so we were n't too sure what to expect.However we soon realised that the hotel was a real find and we had the most perfect holiday. Everything was first class- the friendly staff, the relaxed atmosphere, a lovely clean room, lush gardens beautifully maintained, choice of food and service at mealtimes, pools with sun and shade- and sunbeds for all! We really could not find fault with anything -and guests we spoke to said the same-but the management team are always around the hotel if you do have a problem. The design of the hotel is unusual but has everything to make your holiday complete. Having passed through other places on the island, this hotel and resort are definitely the best and we cannot wait to return.

I second timkee's review . Was recommend this hotel for a relaxing break and was certainly not dissapointed. The clientele at this hotel seemed better than average, was nice to go on holiday for ten days and not hear the f word once

My husband and I have just returned from this amazing hotel after our first visit there and can I just say it will definitely not be our last. There was nothing to complain about. All the staff, right from our check in when we were given champagne and throughout our stay, were wonderful, they were very friendly and could not do enough for you. Rooms were spotlessly clean and very well maintained. The grounds of the hotel were wonderful to walk through and the pool areas were very clean and well maintained with comfy pads to lie on, they even provide towels for use around the pool. Food in the restaurant was excellent and if any one was to complain about it they are very hard to please, the choice of food was extensive and there was bucks fizz/champagne every morning for breakfast as well as smoked salmon and caviare. What we saw of the entertainment was really good especially the Fab Four Beatles tribute band who were excellent. All in all we had a fantastic time and will definitely go back again. As for Puerto Mogan, it was beautiful and very picturesque and no one trying to flog you time share unlike Puerto Rico where we went on the ferry, we only walked about 10 metres and were accosted by 4 time share touts, shop keepers dragging you into the shops and waiters trying to get you to go into their restaurants. We couldn't wait to get back on the ferry and go back to our wonderful Puerto Mogan and the peace and quiet. Definitely not a holiday for those people looking for lots of night life but if like us you enjoy a relaxing holiday in beautiful surroundings then Puerto Mogan is for you.

Just back from a two week stay and wanted to thank the staff at the hotel for making our holiday exceptional . A special mention goes to Carmelo (you know who I am :), Fina and Sofia in the restaurant for their professionalism, friendliness and outstanding service. Sarah who ran the exercise classes (according to my wife) also did a great job. And the lady who looked after our rooms was superb. The hotel was also impeccably maintained and is in an ideal location to take advantage of the beach which is a short walk away. We loved it all! Mike, Ciara, Lewis, Olivia and Molly PS Christian, do you remember me? I was the guy who came to see you just to say thanks!!!

Wir waren Ende September 2011 eine Woche im Cordial Mogan Playa und waren begeistert! Lage: Die Hotelanlage liegt in einem Tal, wenige Minuten vom idyllischen Fischerdorf entfernt. Mogán ist kein Ort zum Party machen, sondern ein Ort zum entspannen. Das Hotel ist etwa 5 Minuten vom Meer entfernt. Der Strand von Mogán liegt in einer kleinen Bucht und ist somit sehr ruhig - perfekt für Kinder. Für Erwachsene lohnt sich ein Ausflug an einen grösseren Strand. Hotel: Das Cordial Mogan Playa besitzt eine wunderschöne, mit Pflanzen dekorierte Anlage. Die Mitarbeiter sind stets bemüht, die Anlage sauber zu halten. Dadurch entsteht ein sehr gepflegter Eindruck. Das Hotel bietet viele Unterhaltungsmöglichkeiten, darunter eine Tennisanlage, zwei grosse Poolbereiche und eine hervorragende Bar mit Live-Musik. Verpflegung: Das Essen war ausgezeichnet! Riesen Auswahl, super Qualität und sehr abwechslungsreich. Einfach hervorragend. Man sollte unbedingt darauf achten, dass man Vollpension Plus bucht. Denn dem Essen zu wiederstehen ist nämlich so gut wie unmöglich. Service: Auch im Bereich Service kann ich keine negativen Punkte finden. Sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich. Besonders der Spa-Bereich hat es uns angetan. Dank der fachmännischen Auskunft konnten wir so richtig relaxen und den Alltagsstress hinter uns lassen. An dieser Stelle möchten wir uns nochmals bei der Leiterin des Spa's für ihre super Arbeit bedanken. Wenn ich die Möglichkeit habe, werde ich auf jeden Fall wieder kommen. Das Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa hat es mir wirklich angetan. Ich kann es uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.

Hele week mooi weer,lijkt hier wel een microklimaat,schitterend hotel,mooie buffetten,mooie zwembaden waarvan 1 verwarmd dus ideaal voor kinderen.Publiek ouderen en gezinnen met kinderen. rustig, goed gelegen, vriendelijk personeel. Een aanrader !

Este mes nos alojamos por segundo año consecutivo y VOLVIÓ A ENCANTARNOS. Sin lugar a dudas creemos que es de los mejores hoteles de Gran Canaria, no decimos que es el mejor porque evidentemente no conocemos todos los hoteles de la Isla, pero de los que hemos ido, ES EL MEJOR. El hotel es precioso, la arquitectura es muy singular y los paseos en el jardín botánico tropical son increíbles. Las zonas comunes están llenas de vegetación, cascadas y fuentes y el olor es embriagador. La recepción también es muy descatable. El hotel dispone de bolera y zona recreativa, el yacimiento funerario de las Crucitas, capilla, gimnasio, spa... Es un auténtico poblado! Sobre las habitaciones, lo cierto es que son espaciosas, el baño es grande y la bañera no es muy alta. Todas disponen de terraza, en esta ocasión hasta teníamos un pequeño jardín de césped en nuestra terraza. Todos los días limpian, cambian toallas y sábanas, no puede estar más limpio la verdad. En cuanto a las piscinas, a nosotros nos encanta la que está más cerca de recepción, puesto que es la más tranquila (aunque también es un poco más pequeña), la de abajo es más grande y allí se realizan todas las actividades diurnas, por lo que normalmente hay música y más gente que en la otra. Destacamos muy positivamente la entrada en forma de playa... Es súper relajante acostarse a tomar el sol ahí mientras estás fresquito por el agua. Las toallas podemos cambiarlas y recoger unas nuevas cada mañana sin coste alguno, además en las hamacas podemos poner unas colchonetas muy cómodas que encontraremos en cualquier lugar de la zona de piscinas. En lo que respecta a las comidas, nos alojamos con media pensión, ya que en la anterior ocasión cogimos el régimen de pensión completa y no podíamos, era demasiada comida! Hay dos turnos para la cena: de 18.00 a 19.30 o de 20.30 a 22.00 horas. El desayuno es increíblemente variado, hay de todo: más de cinco variedades de zumos diferentes, bollería para todos los gustos, más de seis tipos de cereales, gofres, tortitas, fruta pelada, tantos tipos de panes que ni sé decir cuántos, muchísimas variedades de embutidos... Y todo esto sin contar el clásico desayuno inglés: salchichas, huevos, beicon con mucha variedad y también podíamos encontrar: papas, tomates gratinados, tortilla, fabada... Hasta aritos de cebolla!! La verdad que todo muy completo! Sobre el café, desde que nos sentamos en una mesa, los camareros traen dos cafeteras calientes: una con café y la otra con leche; si esto no nos convence, podemos servimos distintos tipos de cafés y chocolate en una máquina de NESCAFÉ. Cuando hicimos el año pasado el almuerzo, lo tomábamos en otro restaurante, TAMARAGUA que es el edificio azul que se encuentra junto a la piscinia de abajo. El almuerzo es bastante menos variado que la cena, por lo que no recomendaríamos hacer el cambio de la cena por el almuerzo, ya que salimos perdiendo en cuanto a cantidad. Normalmente sirven: carnes, pasta, pizza y arroces. Y por último, la cena. La verdad es que nunca he visto un buffet tan variado para las cenas. Hay de TODO: distintos tipos de carnes, de pescados, seis tipos de pizzas, cuatro tipos de pasta diferentes cada noche con tres variedades de salsas, y en cada noche una temática distinta: comida china, comida mediterránea, comida mexicana... En el postre podemos encontrar muchíiisimas variedad de mini pastelitos, tartas, mousse, helados, fruta, y hasta una fuente de chocolate caliente en la que podemos bañar fruta o dulces. Las bebidas tanto del almuerzo como de la cena son de pago. Los espectáculos están bastante bien, el salón en el que se ofrecen es muy bonito y amplio, las bebidas son buenas pero muy caras y tardan un poquito en servirlas. Echamos de menos algún espectáculo más movido para el fin de semana... Sobre el personal, la verdad es que son todos muy amables y hacen su trabajo de la mejor forma, nos llama mucho la atención la vestimenta de los trabajadores, simulando la ropa canaria, es bastante curioso. No tenemos ni una sola queja, para nosotros es 100% recomendable y repetiremos SEGURO el año próximo. La única pena es tener que irte y empezar a contar los 360 días que quedan para volver... Si podemos, claro.

El nombre de este hotel lo dice todo, y verdad es, ya que todo es amabilidad, cordialidad y un largo etc. Te hacen sentir mejor que en tu propia casa, debido a la amabilidad, tranquilidad y relax del que se disfruta, independientemente de todas las actividades que tienen y la situación del mismo es perfecto para desconectar de la rutina diaria e incluso te olvidas de que tienes que volver a retomar la misma, ya que los días pasan volando. Referente al hotel, he de decir que es uno de lo mejores hoteles que he estado, pués las cuatro estrellas con las cuales está calificado pasan a ser CINCO. En relación a las comidas, mejor calidad imposible, la limpieza perfecta y lo mejor de todo el excelente trato que he recibido por parte de todo el equipo que trabajan en el mismo La diversidad de plantas, las piscinas y el aspecto arqutectónico te hace sentir que estás viviendo en un pueblecito. Otro detalle a destacar es el yacimiento arqueológico de Las Crucecitas que posee. He llegado con muchas ganas de volver y espero que así sea. Mi más sincera y cordial felicitación para todos lo que trabajan en el hotel y te hacen que pases unos dias de descanso muy gratos.

Este hotel tiene varios puntos fuertes que son determinantes para disfrutar de una estancia maravillosa. Para empezar, se trata de un hotel cuya arquitectura es preciosa, dando la sensación al huésped de estar en un pueblo, hay una gran vegetación, bonitos jardines, amplias piscinas... El resultado: un hotel bellísimo. En cuanto al servicio sólo puedo decir que es muy amable y está bien formado. El subdirector del hotel nos saludó personalmente en la cena, comentando su disponibilidad para cualquier duda o problema. La comida es variada y la calidad excelente, de lo mejor que puedes saborear en cualquier hotel de Gran Canaria. Sin duda, volveremos

De los mejores hoteles que he visto, bonito, tranquilo, el trato del personal fantástico, el comedor enorme y la comida buenísima.

Estuvimos unos dias alojadas en este hotel y nos encantó, tiene un jardin tropical precioso y esta distribuido en diferentes edificios, puedes pasear de una punta a otra del recinto y es una gozada, las piscinas estupendas con hamacas suficientes.el bufete muy bueno con mucha variedad sobretodo en el desayuno y todo el personal amabilísimo, autenticos profesionales.las habitaciones muy amplias y limpias.el pueblo de puerto de mogan es precioso y pintoresco. Creo que es una estupenda elección si lo que se busca es tranquilidad

En pocas palabras UNA MARAVILLA, ya conocemos bastantes hoteles de gran canaria y demás islas y este es uno de los mejores sin dudarlo, aunque está lleno se respira tranquilidad, y el personal hace que te sientas super agusto. saludos a Marcos desde Madrid

Comentado el 13 marzo 2012 NUEVO Couldn't have picked a better resort on Gran Canaria as we saw most of them during the drop off and pick up which were a pain to be fair as you are last off and first on. Having said that it was very worthwhile. The hotel and its grounds were beautiful, the staff were friendly, polite and very helpful, the check in was a great example of this where we were greeted with a glass of champagne. The food was fantastic, plenty of choice and very well presented. The room we were allocated was perfect, the only slight problem was the fact that there wasn't a socket near to the dressing table and mirror. The town was very attractive and the walk to the top of the hill via the 'zig zag' path is well worth attempting for the wonderful views. Thank you to all of the team at this hotel for making it such a fantastic holiday! Can't rate the spa as we didn't use it but the gym was good.

We were looking for some early sun (February 2012), & Gran Canaria ticked all the weather boxes at this time of year - it should have been low 20's but we got 23 - 25C. However, we were also looking for an attractive place to stay, & it must be said that a lot of the resorts on Gran Canaria are a bit manufactured & bland. Puerto del Mogan though was very pretty, based on an original fishing village, & the Cordial Mogan Playa hotel more than matched it for attraction & was a real gem. The hotel is not on the sea front (so no sea views from rooms) as that really isn't possible with the geography of the bay, hence I guess why it doesn't get it's 5th star, but other than that it deserves it. The pools & gardens are lovely; the staff very friendly & attentive; food choice & quality excellent; & room spacious & comfortable. The only minor criticisms are the hard beds (common to most hotels, but we got the optional mattress topper which helped a bit), & the timing of the meal sittings - we could have done with a time in between them, but managed very well at the end of the earlier sitting (they don't push you out if you sit over your meal). The hotel is located only a few minutes stroll down to the beach & harbour, & the nicest way is to walk down through the hotel's own sub-tropical gardens & out the gate at the end using your room card-key. There's a good market in town on Fridays, & the beach area, harbour & little town are well worth a stroll round every day. There's a good ferry service to Puerto Rico, from where you can walk round to Amadores beach, & we took a local bus into Playa del Ingles & walked along the front to the sand dunes at Maspalomas - you can walk across the dunes to the lighthouse & catch another bus there, but we decided that was a walk too far for us that day! The round-the-island coach trip is worth doing as well - they use mini-buses, as coaches won't get up some of the roads, so you get quite personal service. A tip here is not to be constrained by the tours offered by your own agent - we were with Thomas Cook & their island tour was full, so we booked via Thomsons instead - they were happy to fill their coach seats. Overall, we'd strongly recommend the hotel & resort, but do bear in mind that after a fairly long flight, you'll be the last drop-off if you're on a coach transfer, & although it's not very far in miles, they go all round the world to numerous drop-offs on the way, so retain some patience for the last lap! You may think it worthwhile to forego the coach & book a taxi or hire car instead - extra cost but possibly worth it? It's well worth it when you get there though!

I can't praise this hotel enough. Everything about it was lovely. I won't go into details as it would take too long, but this hotel is fab - for every age, young or old. Great staff, lovely, unusual building, very clean everywhere, heated pools, fantastic food (I gained 4lbs in 11 days) and plenty of things to do within the hotel. All evening entertainment is below the ground floor, so there is no night noise. Also, the road outside the hotel is a walkway, with no noisy, passing traffic. It is more like a peaceful little village than a single hotel, beautiful design, and all less than a 5 minutes stroll to the beach, shops, restaurants, bars.Playa Mogan is a small, pretty village with a lovely, small beach and a pretty marina. Buses are 3 minutes walk away and run frequently to other resorts on the island. The weather was great. We have no complaints about this hotel, at all, and we would certainly love to return.

What a wonderful week, yet again, our 5th visit, and the perfect spot to celebrate our 40th Wedding Anniversary. For us, this lovely hotel and surrounds have everything. At the top is the very special courtesy extended by all the Staff - so friendly and helpful, nothing too much trouble. The breakfast menu is to die for - we've never seen such anywhere else, while the a la carte restaurant is superb in every way. The village itself draws us daily, a lovely atmosphere, of which we never tire. Wall to wall blue sky has been a bonus, and we feel totally relaxed - wanted to stay on, but that will have to wait til our return next year! Chris and Kit Slade, Cheltenham

Amplio, precioso y muy tranquilo. Las zonas comúnes son inmejorables y la comida muy buena. Si buscas un sitio tranquilo, no lo dudes.

I december kom vi hem till Visby efter en fantastisk vecka på hotell Cordial Mogan Playa, vårt sjunde besök på samma hotell. Vi längtade genast tillbaka och i mars återvänder vi, nu för två veckors vistelse och med halvpension! Maten är underbar och med stor variation, personalen serviceminded och hela atmosfären lyxig och vänlig.

Having had ankle ops was limited in mobility. Everywhere in hotel had lifts or ramps and wheelchair fitted through bedroom door. Was able to go swimming as swimming pool had ramp with hand rail to get in. It was easy to get into Puerto Mogan as flat pedestrianised road and most crossing points had ramps and Puerto Mogan is flat. It enables us to have a family holiday where the kids could scuba dive and be active and I could get around. Bad point is €14 a week to hire safety box and drinks expensive but supermarket over the road and could store drinks in fridge. Buffet food excellent and Las Guayeres restaurant v v good , 6 course taster menu very nice. Variety of age groups from active cyclists to families to older folks. Very quiet in evenings which suited us but may not suit if you like active nightlife .

Dette hotellet med tilhørende områder var mye bedre enn forventet.

Vår jr.suite viste seg å være oss seniorer verdig. Soverom, bad og stue var av god standard. Betjeningen sørget for topp renhold av bad og rom og for rene håndklær her eneste dag. Eneste mangelen var king size dobbeltseng. Det bør være standard på en jr. suite. Omgivelsene var fantastiske. Nydelig brolegning og flott beplantning. Rent og ryddig overalt. Nydelige pooler. Gode trenings- og fritidstilbud. Naturen lett tilgjengelig. Godt utvalg til frokost. Vennlig betjening. Kort spasertur til en liten, men sjarmerende by. Vi kommer garantert tilbake.

I was at CMP for just one week this time. The next one`s gonna be two. A fantastic hotel, with great service. The average age on the guests is high, so this is NOT a party place. But they are not selling that kind of experience either. If you want a great holiday with children, or just want to be pampered and have a nice/quiet time, this is the place. Super place for everyone with a handicap by the way. Easy to move from the hotel to the harbour with a wheelchair. The only thing I did not like was the bed. Too hard ! Had to ask for a top matress, and even that was not enough. The internet is slow. EVERYTHING else was just perfect.

We stayed for a week in a Junior Suite. These are mainly housed in two storey buildings quite a way from Reception but are nearer to the beautiful fishing harbour and beach. You also get to take breakfast in a separate building rather than walk to the main restaurant. Food choice is extensive and of a high quality in the buffet restaurant. A superb a-la-carte restaurant is also on site for a special treat. The gardens are outstanding, a plant lovers dream. A truly relaxing break!

An excellent hotel in a quiet location away from the chavs! What a delight ! Super food , very clean hotel and pool. Can't fault the hotel we will return. lovely Indian restaurant upstairs in the shopping mall opposite the hotel

Excellent hotel, friendly service and wonderful amenities. We stayed for 2 weeks and found lots to do in the village and on-site. Our accomodation ranged from single rooms to a suite - all were spacious and well maintained. Staff are particularly attentive. Arnando (Pool Cafe/Bar) was wonderful, helped us find a lost phone and always had a smile for us when we passed. We enjoyed the exercise classes, our cute Swiss instructor was more than willing to tailor the class to individual needs and even put on a special classes for us. Night entertainment was typical for a resort, the lobby usually had a pianist or guitarist for more traditional entertainment. I'm not a fan of all inclusive, however, food was excellent and varied each day at the buffet. 1/2 board it gave us the option to eat lunch out or trade dinner for lunch vouchers-very nice. Dinner at Los Guayres was top notch both times we ate there. We were celebrating a birthday and the staff did a wonderful job making it a special occasion. Well worth the upgrade in price. Local bus service is prompt and reliable, we visited the town of Mogan-charming and historic Las Palmas, well worth the trip. I would highly recommed Mogan and the Cordial.

Det er et meget dejligt, men stort hotel. Dog er størrelsen vel også en forudsætning for de mange aktiviteter, man kan deltage i. Maden er helt i top, og vi har ikke oplevet en bedre morgenbuffet end her, hvad angår udvalget, kvaliteten og anretningen. Hotellet er meget rent såvel inde som ude, og omgivelserne er indbydende og lækre. Kort sagt er det en oplevelse, som vi kun kan anbefale.

Superb hotel, excellent food with exceptional choice, first class staff and accommodation. Beautiful grounds and pools, all spotlessly clean. Fitness classes and good evening entertainment all gratis. Close proximity to pretty harbour for evening or daytime walks.

We stayed here between 5th-16th January! On arrival we were offered either a glass of water or cava, of which we went for the latter to start our holiday off in the right fashion! We were checked in efficiently and with no rush answering any questions we had and explaining the hotel facilities in general! The porter took us to our room along with our bags and we were located in block three! This block over looks the quieter of the 2 pools and isnt too far away from main reception and therefore the restaurants etc, the only downfall for us was the lack of morning or evening sun on the balcony (of which was a good size). The room was lovely with a nice size bathroom. There was a tv but it lacked in English speaking programs significantly, with only the news really to watch which was a shame. We didnt want to watch the tv all day and night but it would be nice to have the option if you wanted. There were no tea and coffee making facilities but you can ask at reception for a travel kettle where a small deposit is required. There is a supermarket opposite the hotels reception area which has everything you would need. We got some drinks and snacks to keep in our room. Another thing was that you have to pay for the safe for the time that you are there if you require one. However the maid service was very good, very friendly and when we asked for a 'bed topper' to soften the bed up they were very prompt in doing so. Including the maintainence team who bought us a fan to the room as my partner was a little warm whilst drying her hair etc! The hotels main restaurant was fantastic, that from the food to the staff!! It was very organised as you keep the same table for your evening meal for every night you stay and there were two sittings so it was never over crowded! The food was lovely with plenty to choose from and a lot of thought had quite obviously been put into the food options to cater for all nationalities! So much to choose from and we never had the exact same meal twice! After the meal we would sit in the lobby bar where there was often a musician playing either saxophonist, pianist or guitarist! I would definately recommend the cordial cocktail!! Puerto de Mogan its self was lovely, very picturesque and plenty of restaurants to choose from! Non of which where pushy for your custom so its nice just to be able to have a stroll around and stop for a drink! On the Saturday evening there was a local man playing his trumpet in the band stand to some jazz back track, very nice to sit next to the harbour and just relax! The pool nearest the reception was our favourite as it was quieter with waiter service (buttons by your sunbeds to get there attention) the food in the snack bar in this area was also very nice! The pool furthest away was the louder of the two with the animation in this area and was a lot more family orientated. We went with Thomas Cook and were VERY disapointed with the service, we were mis-sold an excursion (the VIP trip) which did not include anything VIP about it! We spent our day stopping off in laybys to look at the same view for half an hour at a time, the lunch was awful and were it was held can only be described as a school canteen environment! The 'local guide' was from Watford and had lived in Gran Canaria for a few years, not what we expected as a 'local' guide!! The rep was un helpful when we complained about our wasted day and wouldnt let us talk to her management!! In light of this we were only delighted to be back at our hotel which was a delight in comparison! Overall the holiday was brilliant, the hotel and its staff all fantastic. The hotel grounds we amazing and as a horticulturist myself the gardens really were lovely and varied! We would recommend this hotel time and time again and will most definately be making a trip back there ourselves!! Infact, we met couples and families that had been back for many years! Thankyou Cordial Mogan Playa!!

Just returned from 5 nights at the hotel & had a fantastic time ! Hotel grounds are superb with beautifully tended gardens . We spent our time around pool 2 , which is more suited to families with an animation team organising a few activities & a few exercise classes , nothing too strenuous but makes you feel a bit less guilty hitting the pudding station later on ! The food was excellent , buffet style & rather busy at times ( allotted table for the two evening seatings ) , but something for everyone, including my fussy eater . Evening entertainment fairly cheesy so we used the games room ( table tennis , pool & air hockey ) and the excellent bowling ( bargain at €2 pp ) . Staff were extremely pleasant & professional & we were impressed when a manager came to say goodbye on our last night. We ventured in town a couple of times , nicer than most Canarian resorts , with the usual shops , but we were happy using hotel facilities & staying by pool. Would absolutely recommend , my favoured location would be upper floor of block 7 , overlooking pool 2 for nice view ( hotel not sea front ) and sun from early pm onwards , at least in Feb !

Als Familie (Großeltern, Eltern, zwei Mädels) haben wir einen wunderbaren 14tägigen Urlaub hier verlebt. Die äußeren Bedingungen (Lage des Hotels, Ausstattung des Appartements, das Essen) sind hervorragend. Aber am meisten hat uns die Freundlichkeit und die Hilfsbereitschaft des Personals an der Rezeption und im Restaurant beeindruckt. Sie haben alles getan, damit wir uns richtig wohl fühlten. Besonders im Restaurant fielen uns Ramon, Eugenio, Idaira und Lidya auf, die nicht nur sehr flink arbeiten, sondern auch immer den Eindruck vermitteln, ihre Arbeit für die Gäste gern zu tun.

We stayed in this hotel from 30th January for a week booked as a package with Thomas Cook. However we decided to get a private transfer from the airport with click transfers as we had heard it can take up to 2 hours on the coach and we didn't want to waste this time. This was an excellent idea as going back to the airport, the coach picked up at 10.30 am and we didn't leave until 12.00 noon. On arrival after 40 minutes in a taxi we arrived and checked in quickly (as the coaches had not arrived!) we were very impressed with the lobby and reception, it is stunning and had the wow factor. We were given room 3506 which over looked the top pool but due the mountains/sun we spent everyday at the bottom pool. The whole place is spotless, this is the cleanest hotel we have stayed in and we have stayed in a lot. Our room was what we had expected, I can't understand people expecting a modern room when the photo's in the brochure and on the website show that all rooms are the same and are average in décor and furnishings, after all, we only slept in the room so it wasn't important! The rooms have a dvd player which is handy if you know about it before you arrive. We took our own travel kettle so the lack of tea/coffee facilties was not an issue either. We had heard that mattress topers were available and we did ask for these and an extra blanket as I felt it was cold through the night. Some rooms are plunged into darkness because of tree's/lack of sun and if you really want a sunny balcony I suggest emailing in advance to secure this and avoid disappointment. I don't want to go on and repeat what others have said but this hotel really is fantastic, we can't fault anything at all and had a perfect week in the sun (25 degrees everyday!) Puerto de Mogan is the nicest resort in Gran Canaria and we will return! No complaints what so ever! (And that’s rare!!!)

After reading reviews of this hotel I had high expectations, but I was definitely not disappointed! This is an Excellent hotel with lovely grounds and great facilities. The cleanest complex we have ever stayed in. Staff very friendly. Fantastic Holiday! We will be back!

Just returned from a lovely holiday at this hotel, celebrating my partners birthday, its a great hotel with great facilities and great food, catered for all tastes and a good variety, did not have the same meal twice. The resort of Puerto Mogan is ideal, nice beach and harbour, we were on the beach everyday, as everyone says it's like 'little venice', we loved it, took the ferry to Puerto Rico and Amadoras one day, nice resorts but glad we were staying in Mogan. Met a great couple from London on our first day there and had some great evenings with them, thanks Terry and Val, icing on the cake. I would definately recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a nice relaxing holiday.

Et helt unikt hotell. Absolutt det beste jeg noen gang har bodd på. Underholdning med dyktige artister hver kveld. Det eneste negative for meg, var harde madrasser i sengene, men noen liker jo det.

Vi hadde høye forhåpninger men ble likevel positivt overasket over hotellet. Vi bodde her en uke i februar 2012. Alt holdt god kvalitet, og spesielt servicen var fantastisk. Juniour Suite anbefales da disse ligger betydelig nærmere byen/stranden enn de andre rommene. Rommet var stort (ca 40kvm?) og holdt grei standard. Eget kjøleskap til egen drikke. Kort vei til alt i Puerto De Mogan. Frokosten var glimrende.

I stayed in the hotel Cordial Mogan playa in the beginning of january and it was the best start of the year I could get. It´s a fantastic and big hotel with a beautiful environment and a lot of plants. good food, especially the breakfast, and wonderful staff. I came to relax and take it easy, but still i joined many of the activities with the animaition team. Special thanks to Elin who made my holidays to something extra!

Our stay here is one of our most relaxing stays in a hotel ever. We spent 8 days with half board and checked out weighing a couple of kilos more than when we arrived. It is a big four star hotel with about 500 rooms and suites, but because of the way it is built it never seemed overcrowded. It consists of several buildings spread out in an enormous garden with more than 200 species of plants. The room we had was spacious enough with two comfortable chairs, a flat screen satellite TV, free WIFI and a balcony with a nice view of the fantastic garden. Everything was working, and the room was very clean. The architecture of the hotel is a creative mix of different styles and very different from most of the other uninspiring Gran Canaria hotels. The service in the reception and elsewhere was effective and friendly, but there seemed to be a shortage of staff in the buffet restaurant and the waiters looked a bit stressed from time to time. A few more waiters would make the meals more relaxing for the guests as well. On the first evening we were showed a table and told that this was our table for the rest of the stay. Nevertheless, we had to change our table three times during our eight days. They definitely need a better system for the seating. The food was great, though. After eight days we still hadn't managed to taste everything! We also tried the Los Guayres a la carte restaurant one evening and had a delicious meal in a quiet and relaxed atmosphere. Can be recommended. In the garden there were two great pools with artificial sandy beaches and free sunbeds. Some of them with thick comfortable mattresses. Free pool towels could be changed daily. Free parking in hotel garage, but to use the safe in the room, you had to pay extra. In a four star hotel this ought to be included. Puerto de Mogan is a very quiet place with a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, especially in the evenings when all the day trippers have left. So if you are looking for party, this is not the place, but if your main goal is to have a nice and relaxing holiday in the most sunny area on Gran Canaria, go here. We will definitely come back here.

Un paraíso para escapar de maspalomas y de sus abarrotados hoteles tenia buena critica y nos dejamos guiar por los comentarios nos gusto mucho buenas instalaciones buen trato buena comida enclave maravilloso cerca del pintoresco mogan me encanto

At first sight the hotel looks like Disneyland but give it a chance. The rooms are comfortable and very clean. You have privacy. The lanscaping is imaginative. You are surrounded by sensationally beautiful tropical plants, birds are everywhere, fish swim in pools, all in excellent condition. The food is excellent too. OK, you have to bustle around with the other diners to get it but that's quite fun. I wouldn't bother with the exclusive restaurant again, it's pretty but you can get that sort of food in London. Pools and poolside are great and you're a five minute walk downtown to the little, not-too-done up port with bars, restaurants and shops. There's also a quite challenging cliff path and you can get to the next bay. I would definitely come back. MW

Great place to stay. Everything you need at the hotel. Good food, pool, gym, bike rentals and dive centre. Supermarket nearby to buy water, beer and other essentials at low prices. Launderette at Cordial apartments to do mid holiday laundry. A short walk into Puerto Morgan for banks, shops, restaurants and bars. We had a great holiday! I find it hard to find fault with this hotel but if pressed we did not like the beach type stones around the pool - these stick to your feet when wet and it's like walking with a stone in your shoe. Also, sound proofing in our room - we could hear next door snoring and using the toilet during the night, but this was not so bad as to be a problem, more a source of amusement!

I say "team work" for perhaps this goes unnoticed in many reviews here but for me given a base of excellent food and good accommodation the staff of Cordial Playa set the standard of a relaxed and gentle atmosphere throughout this fine resort. During our seven night stay here we never once saw a member of staff unhappy at work and indeed from cleaners to reception staff they were a smiling content lot and senior management has to be applauded in fostering an atmosphere so essential to every guests enjoyment of this excellent hotel. For good service to be successful all other elements of the hotel need to be of a similar high standard. This hotel succeeds in every department with food of a high quality and clean and comfortable rooms. The two pools surrounded by comfortable sunbeds have been set in immaculate gardens tended daily by gardeners. To be honest I have been to less well kept National Botanic gardens. Nits ? No .... our overall experience was comfort throughout served up by fresh smiles, courtesy and efficiency.

Godt hotel med god service. Super beliggenhed og kanon gourmet restaurant til rimelige priser.

We had a great holiday at the Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa 7 - 21 January 2012. Excellent hotel, excellent staff. Ask for a south facing room over pool areas. Excellent pool areas but busy in January. 5 - 10 mins from small beach & village/marina & harbour. 2 hour transfer by coach 1 hour by taxi. Food buffet style but very good quality & plenty of it - breakfast, lunch & dinner - forget the diet !! We would definitely go back again. Beautiful grounds.

Dette var virkelig en opplevelse av de helt store ! Fine rom, flott hageanlegg, bassengområder jeg kun trodde det gikk an å drømme om ! Frokost og middagsbuffeter var hemningløse, god mat og overdådig utvalg. Mogan var en svært koselig by med mange flotte restauranter langs havnebasenget mm. Hit vil vi igjen !

We stayed at the Cordial Mogan Playa 5th January to 16th January 2012 and must say that this is one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. The room was excellent, we did have a suite, and it was spacious and clean. There are no tea making facilities in the room but you can hire a kettle from reception for 10 euros and this is returned when you check out. The food was excellent and plentiful, both breakfast and dinner. The swimming pools are lovely as are the gardens and everything is so clean. I can't praise the staff enough, they are all so friendly and helpful. We will certainly be coming back to this hotel

Like many others we really enjoyed our time at the Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa. As has already been said the staff were excellent - whether on reception, in the restaurants or bars or even maintenance men about the site - all had a cheery smile and greeting and seemed to genuinely enjoy helping the guests. Ours was a twin room and pretty standard for holiday hotels with a good bathroom (ours had a shower over the bath), good sized wardrobe, and room to sit in easy chairs if we didn't want to be on the balcony. The floors are all tiled so as others have remarked you do get some noise from neighbours moving furniture around but as long as it's not as you're trying to get off to sleep it's not a problem. The beds WERE firm - but no firmer than we have at home - although some might find they need the matrtress toppers available from reception. Our room (and several others by the look of it) didn't get any sun on the balcony at all, so if this is important to you make sure you request a sunny balcony when booking. The whole hotel, and its grounds were all immaculately clean and well maintained - especially impressive as we went on Jan 2nd so there may have been a reduced staff over the Christmas / New Year. The food, both at breakfast and dinner, was better than most we've had in hotels of this sort and we never had any trouble finding several things we fancied to eat. Yes, it got busy at times - but I guess that's almost inevitable - we just varied our times to find a quieter period. There is an A La Carte restaurant in the hotel which is well worth a visti - quieter, more space, more time and FABULOUS food for a special treat. If you're half board you can even swop a dinner for a lunch and go out for your evening meal to the harbour where there is a huge selection of small, friendly restaurants around the bustling marina. Because of the way the hotel is built it doesn't ALL get the sun ALL of the day so inveitably there is some jostling for sunbeds. Yes, some get "reserved" when they shouldn't but we did see the lifeguards ("Socaristas") putting notes on some beds and even on a couple of occasions removing towels from beds that hadn't been occupied for ages. There were plently of daytime activities - mostly of the keep-fit variety and the pools were both heated, or you could spend hours exploring the hotel because although it's a big hotel it's laid out bery creatively with lots of interesting little gardens and ponds so you never see the whole place from one vantage point. On that note its well worth going on the free hotel tour on a Friday morning to get a feel for the place and see the warren of underground tunnels used by the staff. The transfer from the airport IS quite a long one (just over an hour for us) but we just regarded it as a free tour of the South of the island. Despite the evening cabaret being rather average this is one of the very few hotels we've stayed in that we'd go back to - which just about says it all. Not directly hotel related but worth mentioning that Mogan Playa and marina is an enchanting little town/port with lots to see and do - both in the daytime and the evening (it's not Blackpool mind!) and a lovely relaxed atmosphere to the place so even if you don't stay at eh Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa it's worth visiting Mogan. Oh, and the "Island Premier Delights Tour" is worth every penny - but not for the faint hearted!

This was our third year running to this hotel.... I say in my title 'third time..lucky.. .yet again' because once again we had wonderful weather, sunshine every day, and the hotel lived up to our memory of the previous two years. Spotlessly clean, and the staff friendly and extremely helpful. We ate too much....there is such a CHOICE of food....with entracote steak and fish all being cooked in front of your eyes. There are two dining rooms....we chose to eat in the WINTER GARDEN which is a bit like a conservatory with windows all around looking onto trees and streams....it's truly delightful. We tended to take a walk along to the MARINA at PUERTO MOGAN (about ten minutes away) in the morning and then return to the lovely gardens and swimming pool in the afternoon, relaxing and reading. The MARINA and HARBOUR is buzzing with people.... eating and drinking at the many cafes and restaurants, and the view is lovely. So many other reviewers here have described both the hotel and the resort in more detail, so I won't repeat them...we will CERTAINLY be going back for a fourth visit.

We stayed at this hotel for a week with our 2 young boys in January 2012. Overall we were very impressed and in our opinion it deserves its status as the number 1 hotel in the Canary Islands. We found the staff to be very friendly and attentive to our needs, especially our children. The hotel is well situated, close to the harbour and many restaurants. Breakfast was excellent, my wife and i travel a lot and this was possibly one of the best breakfasts that we have encountered. On the negative side, the rooms lack tea and coffee making facilities and the hotel does not provide ironing facilities except for their laundry service. The rooms were a bit noisy, on a number of occasions we were able to hear furniture being moved in adjacent rooms. We had a great time staying at this hotel and would recommend it to others.

We have just returned from this Hotel, it certainly does live up to its excellent reviews. The Hotel gardens are beautiful, a real tropical oasis. We opted for a Junior Suite which was very nice. Bathroom was spotlessly clean and not the normal shower over the bath, there is a separate walk in shower. We rang the Hotel and asked for a suite facing south to get as much sun as possible, our request was fulfilled. We also asked for mattress toppers, again these were provided and we found the beds to be very comfortable. There are two swimming pools, one which has daytime activities so a little noisier than the 2nd pool which is tranquil. The quality of the food and the variety was excellent, I am not sure why some people feel it is repetetive, we didn't have the same thing twice unless of course we wanted to because we enjoyed it. The entertainment was not really to our taste but we gave it a try. The hotel staff in the main were very friendly. We had a problem with the hinge on the mini bar door, we didn't report it, however the cleaner must have reported it and it was put right the same day. The bar in the Reception Area closes at 11 p.m. so if you want a late night you would have to drink in the Nightclub area. Mogan is a beautiful resort which we enjoyed each evening. A drink in the harbour before our meal in the evening was most enjoyable. I would definitely return to Mogan and would certainly stay at this Hotel again in the future.

In der Vorweihnachtszeit hübsch dekorierte, sehr gepflegte Anlage mit Wohlfühl-charakter. Das Essen sehr abwechselungsreich in angenehmer Atmosphäre (Wintergarten). Die Zimmer sind hübsch eingerichtet und mit Balkon-wie überall braucht man Glück mit den Nachbarn. Das Personal ist sehr fleißig und freundlich. Das Entertainment sportlich wie auch kulturell hat uns bis zum abendlichen Tanz immer mitgerissen - danke besonders an Sarah und Sven. Für Anregungen hatte das Management immer ein offenes Ohr. Bei unserem nächsten Besuch freuen wir uns auf die Wandertouren.

Picked Peurto Mogan as it is not over-developed, unlike some parts of Gran Canaria, and still has an old village feel to it. The Cordial Playa hotel is just a flat 10 minute walk from the harbour, past flower-filled streets and alleyways that are colourful and atractive. The hotel itself at first sight felt perhaps a bit Disneyland in its architectural style, but once we found our way around it was clearly a rather stunning place to be. The gardens are beautifully landscaped and full of interest, pools are very good, restaurants and bars are varied and well-designed and we understood why some visitors hardly left the hotel at all. We couldn't inderstand why a few reviewers complained about the food. Breakfast offered more choice and quality than many 5 star hotels and we enjoyed the spectacle of all the different nationalities searching out their own version of breakfast, or indeed trying something different from the norm. If the huge range on offer is insufficient for you, well, get a life! Dinner occasionally had the feel of 'queing for school meals', but we were in fact queing for freshly-cooked-before-your-eyes entrecote steak or tasty fish. Duckling, pork loin, salmon etc etc were also on the menu. Vegetarians would not be disappointed either as the salads and non-meat meals were also very varied. A good way of doing half-board is to swap [in advance, at reception] a couple of evening meals for the excellent lunchtime buffet at a poolside restaurant, then dine instead at one of the many good harbour retaurants on those evenings. For us, this avoided the repetitive feel that half board can cause. Our room was spotless, good-sized and well-appointed, with a decent balcony and excellent bathroom. We were lucky enought to have a balcony that caught the sun most of the day, though one or two of the blocks looked as if they might be in the shade too much. If we were at the hotel all day we generally used the very comfortable sunbeds by the pool, and were often treated to hours of birdsong from the resident blackbirds. Butterflies and birds seem just as happy with the wonderful gardens as we were. What makes the hotel special is undoubtedly the staff, over 200 of them. With hardly an exception they were highly-trained and motivated, friendly,fun, hard-working and fully focused on meeting the needs of guests. It was my partner's birthday during our stay and we were touched to find a bottle of iced champagne in our room when we returned - a very gracious gesture, and much appreciated. Any questions we had were answered fully and clearly at reception. If a taxi was needed they arranged it within five minutes and even knew roughly how much the journey should cost. There isn't much in the way of criticism, as this is clearly a hotel that has listened to guest feedback. I would have liked tea/coffee making facilities in the bedroom, for those early morning or late night cuppas, but that's about all. I would come to the Cordial again, or perhaps to the Cordial Valle apartments next door for a little more freedom - particularly if the weather is always this good in January. Thnak you Cordial Playa Mogan for a very very pleasant stay.

Have just returned from the Cordial Mogan Playa. This was our second visit to the hotel, on this occasion to celebrate my partners 60th birthday. We were not disappointed. We found all staff to be friendly, helpful and effecient-nothing was too much trouble for any of them. We were given a lovely room with a welcome bottle of red wine and a basket of fruit on arrival. On the day of my partners birthday we returned to our room after lunch to find a bottle of sparkling wine on ice with a letter from the management wishing her a happy birthday. Our table in the dining room that evening was decorated with celebratory decorations and table settings ( a nice touch) and another bottle of sparkling wine awaited us. We decided to share its contents with guests on the next two tables. The waiter eagerly went to get glasses for them whilst the dining room manager came over to our table to speak to us - all this made for a memorable birthday celebration. The food was of a high standard, with something to suit everyones taste. We particularly enjoyed the freshly cooked fish and the wide ranging salads available. I would highly recommend this hotel as regard to location, value for money, quality accomodation and last but not least the beautiful gardens that surround the whole area.

Wow, what more can I say that has,nt already been said about this place on this site, Champagne with smoked salmon and caviar for breakfast or anything else you could possible think of is there, Evening meal, Fillet steak, Suckling pig, Roast duck, all sorts of fish, I could go on and on. Absolutely something for every one's taste is there, The hotel is like a tropical oasis that is beautifully designed for relaxation and chilling, The staff give amazing service at every level. Oh and one more thing to say it was my husbands birthday and to both of are surprises they brought a bottle of champagne and a cake to are room, they must of noticed his date of birth from his passport on checking in, A fantastic stay was what we had in every way.

Das Hotel ist sehr schön und sehr freundliches Personal. Die Gegend ist sehr ruhig und der Strand-Shuttle funktioniert super Das Essen ist frisch und sehr gut. Die Einrichtungen sind sehr sauber und sehr aufmerksames Personal an der Poolbar, die Zimmer sind sehr sauber und freundlich empfangen. Herr. Montiero war sehr nett und freundlich. Vielen Dank

This was so much better than staying at the Mogan Valle apartments - a sister hotel which we found basic and noisy. This place was really quiet and very comfortable. Far too much tasty food if you are watching your weight...wide variety which - if you loaded up your plates each day would I guess be very samey, when you restrict yourself to 3 or four courses of different dishes each night, this gives more variety to a couple of weeks food intake! Same goes for the breakfasts - everything you can think of and more every day. I never found any problem with getting sunbeds at either of the big pools - wish the water had been a bit warmer but then I could say that about almost everywhere I go. Bedroom with balcony on a high floor gave some good views, next year I have opted for a junior suite so hopefully will get a bit of winter sunshine in the room. The early evening entertainment is dominated by kids club which is fine unfortunately they kept the same approach to livening things up for the adults which ensured we went out every evening for our entertainment, having said that we always managed half an hour on the dancefloor before we left and when we returned! Puerto Mogan remains our favourite location in Gran Canaria, so quaint and relaxed with a nice little beach and harbour and lovely restaurants. Hope the junior suite makes it even better next time.

This hotel went far beyond my expectations. Staff really went out of their way to ensure a perfect stay. On arrival, which was fairly late in the evening, reception staff suggested we went straight to the dining room while they dealt with passports, etc. Unknown to me my husband had contacted hotel to arrange flowers, champagne and fruit in our room. All of this made for an excellent first impression. The layout of the hotel is charming with several buildings set among delightful gardens, an archaeological site and pretty chapel. Buffet meals had an impressive array of food but the icing on the cake for me was the discovery, on our second evening, of the a la carte restaurant. With an allowance of 15E it meant we ate in style for the rest of the week. Restaurant staff had an excellent knowledge of food and wine. A bonus was the DVD player in room. This was a First Choice package holiday and I agree with previous reviewer who recommended taxi transfers. This was the only downside to our holiday

We stayed during January 2012. The hotel was great in all respects. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful & efficient. The weather was also excellent. The buffet restaurant served a huge range of food that varied from day to day, including different meat & fish cooked freshly to order. Whilst we never tired of the food, the buzzing nature of a big buffet room sometimes grates a little. However, opt to sit in the Winter Garden section, and you're a little bit off the beaten track and will have a quieter meal. The room was comfortable and very clean, although as it was on the ground floor of our block, it was a little dark all day long. I would imagine that this would be a plus-point at the height of Summer. You can rent a kettle from the hotel if you like making tea & coffee for yourself. We spent our days around the lower pool, as this had a more relaxed layout & gardens. The pool nearer reception had a more 'regimented' layout of it's beds, but probably accomodated more people. There was pleanty of activities offered both during the day AND evening. By the pool there was various things offered like pool aerobics, other fitness activities and even rifle shooting! The staff offer you everything but leave you in peace if desired (Thanks Sarah). There is also a scuba school there, where we tried it for the first time and really enjoyed!! (Thanks Max). The evening 'entertainment' I thought was poor, and would be my only negative point. Also, if you dine in the 2nd dinner sitting, it's nearly finished by time you leave the restaurant. The proximity to the beach, and very pretty harbour, meant that alternative activities were very close by. Overall we loved our time here and will definitely visit again.

Very impressive lobby and swimming pool areas made the room look disappointing. Only just a tolerable size for two adults and a 10-year old. Good tourist standard but no more. The restaurant did a very good job of catering well for all nationalities. Buffet food will never be gourmet food but that didn't stop me eating far too much every single night. There are a small number of dishes, which are cooked to order in an open kitchen. They do have an a la carte restaurant but we didn't venture in there. Breakfast were impressive and, I felt, even better than the evening meal. Half board will provide more than enough food for the day. I don't think that we ate lunch at all during our stay. The swimming pools and the grounds are very well laid out and maintained. We never had a problem getting a sun lounger, even if certain nationalities insist on reserving their space at the crack of dawn. Signs do state that hotel policy is to remove such 'reservations' but we didn't see it being enforced. We are going back, but this time to a two-bed apartment in the Mogan Valle apartments, which are next door and sharing most of the outdoor facilities with the hotel. MOre on this later....

Vi har nyss kommit tillbaka efter en vecka på Cordial Playa, vi har försökt att samla våra intryck för att kunna ge en rättvis bedömning av detta fantastiska hotell. Vid ankomst blev vi helt fantastiskt bemötta av charmiga Serena i receptionen , som utöver att checka in oss, hann med att servera oss Cava, springa ut till vår hyrda bil och hjälpte min man in med väskorna, vilka sedan kördes till vårt rum av hjälpsam personal. Då jag läst tidigare recensioner om att sängarna skulle vara hårda beställda vi "toppers" och extra kuddar direkt i receptionen, och inom 1 timme var det diskret arrangerat. Men jag måste faktiskt säga att vi hade nog klarat oss bra utan dem också, för så hårda var inte sängarna. Vi hade bokat en juniorsvit och dessa ligger avskilt längst ned i trädgården där det var lugnt och tyst men ändå nära till både frukostmatsalen och "bakdörren" för att ta sig till hamnen. Vår svit låg på andra våningen vilket jag var glad för, då sviterna på markplan hela tiden låg i skugga på grund av växtligheten på området, så jag kan tänka mig att de uppfattas som lite mörka. Men växtligheten är ju fantastiskt vacker på området, så det känns lite sniket att klaga på det. Vi hade halvpension med i paketet, och tänkte att vi skulle byta middagarna mot lunch buffe , för att istället äta på någon av de många restaurangerna i hamnen på kvällarna, men efter att vi första kvällen valde att prova middagsbuffen ändrade vi helt inställning , för maten var så god, vällagad och variationsrik så vi såg verkligen fram emot måltiderna, som vi valde att inta på den "sena" sittningen. Poolerna var uppvärmda till behaglig temperatur även för små barn, och vi valde att alltid bada i den nedre poolen där solen kom åt att värma upp lite tidigare på dagen . För om det är något som kändes lite tråkigt så var det just detta med "jagandet" av solsängar där solen kom åt att lysa. Det fanns sängar så det räckte till alla, men igen på grund av den frodiga växtligheten så blev det lite trixande med att flytta sängarna för att inte ligga i skugga. Men helhetsintrycket av Cordial är så positivt så vi sitter redan och börjar planera för att resa tillbaka.

Il s'agit de notre troisième séjour à l'hôtel Cordial Mogan Playa et nous sommes toujours aussi satisfaits des services, de la gentillesse du personnel et de la qualité des repas. Nous y avons passé un super réveillon de la Saint Sylvestre avec une très bonne ambiance. Nous y retrouvons chaque année les mêmes membres de personnel, ainsi que des clients fidèles, ce qui est toujours un bon signe dans un hôtel. La direction est omniprésente à tous les niveaux et dans tous les endroits (bars, restaurants, piscines). Les chambres offrent tout le confort attendu dans un 4 étoiles plus et sont équipées de frigo, flat tv avec lecteur de cd et dvd, coffre-fort, terrasse meublée et salle de bain complète avec produits de toilette et wc séparé. La literie est très confortable et permet même un choix d'oreillers et de couette si désiré. Les buffets, tant au petit déjeuners, qu'au diner sont très variés et offrent un choix presque illimité. Le soir choix de viandes, volailles, rotis et poissons, le tout en show cooking, ainsi que des plats préparés internationaux (espagnols, italiens, asiatiques etc..). Nous ne sommes pas des grands fans de buffets, mais ceux du Cordial Mogan Playa sont aptes à satisfaire les plus difficiles. Au niveau des bars, nous nous demandons quels alcools ne sont pas proposés ! L'animation est cool et soft, sympathique et pas envahissante. Participe qui veut. En réponse à "jacouillenivelles", nous signalons que nous avons rencontré quelques membres du personnel et de la direction parlant un français très correct, et qu'en tant que francophones nous avons pu néanmoins nous faire des amis parmi les clients (entre autres un couple d'écossais). La langue ne constitue donc pas, à notre sens, une barrière pour les contacts. Nous espérons y retourner une quatrième fois.

Just back from one week stay. On arrival we were allocated a twin room with fold away bed for my son....overlooking a rusty shopping centre complete with foul smell. Thank god we managed to secure a junior suite on the 2nd day (50 euros extra per night, per room). This changed the complexion of our whole holiday. The suites are spacious and set in stunning, lush tropical gardens next to a quaint chapel in the grounds. Breakfast can be taken in a beautiful peaceful blue building with tables on the veranda. Bliss. Felt like another hotel. Pools great but need more space for loungers. The place is huge and the main part is fine, just too big and busy. Staff great especially at the blue building cafe. Great location, lovely Marina and would go back in a heartbeat....to a suite!

My husband and I stayed in the hotel in December 2011 for 1 week. From the first moment was special. We´ve got a welcome drink, great hospitality, they carried our bags to the room. The room was beautiful, confortable, big, quite. Food was excellent at breakfast and dinner, a lot to choose from. During our stay we´ve got everything we desired. They change my hairdryer immediately after I reported that was not working properly. All the workers were friendly and helpful. The free parking and internet were very welcome. The last day they let us stay until our flight departure in the evening. Every detail was great. I am going definitely to be back in this hotel as often as I can. I highly recommend to everyone.

my wife & myself stayed at the mogan playa for 10 nights july 2011, the hotel was fantastic, the staff very pleasant & helpfull, food was very good, no problems with sun beds even though the hotel was really busy, champagne on arrival is a very nice touch. would recommend this hotel to everybody

Die Gartenanlage des Hotels ist überwältigend schön. Allgemein hat man in diesem Hotel immer sehr viel zu entdecken. Die zimmer sind immer sauber und ordentlich. Das Buffet hat immer einige spezielle Highlights geboten und war mehr als zufrieden stellend. Das Personal war sehr angenehm, freundlich, fleißig und nicht aufdringlich. die riesige Überraschung war für mich aber das Animationsteam. Dieses war extrem freundlich und hat nicht mit der Motivation der Gäste übertrieben. Die Aktionen waren dabei immer passend und trafen den Geschmack der Gäste. Persönlich möchte ich hier der schwedischen Amateurin Elin und dem Kölner Jens für die tolle Zeit danken. Ihr habt meinen Urlaub noch versüßt :)

Just returned from a week over Christmas for the 3rd year running! Ticks all the boxes for us, great food, quiet resort, wonderful hotel & staff. Evening entertainment is typical but not our style so we tend to avoid. A few more families seem to be attending since we first went so can get a bit noisy if you are a couple wanting r & r. Will be back though, feeling very relaxed, shame we came back to dull rainy UK!

My husband, teenage son and I stayed for a week just before Christmas and it was quite quiet, though more people were arriving all the time to stay for the Christmas period. The reception staff are excellent; very friendly and efficient and can speak several languages. The complex is large but well designed with lots of lovely tropical plants, cacti and trees all around the site. We were given intercommunicating rooms even though we had just booked two rooms, hoping they would be near each other so we were impressed. The rooms were very comfortable and clean, with wine and fresh fruit to greet us.If you find the beds a bit firm, you can ask for mattress toppers. Our rooms were on the second floor, which is not quite so good if you want the sun on your balcony, as at this level the tropical vegetation blocked it out, so maybe ask for a room at a higher level. Altogether though we couldn't fault this hotel. The food is varied and excellent (yes, self-discipline was a problem!) and all the staff are polite and friendly, though as anywhere, some better than others. There were plenty of loungers available around the heated pools, despite some people insisting on 'reserving' them with towels even though the hotel ask you not to do this. The hotel is built down in the cove, towards the back of the resort, with the cliffs/rocks immediately behind some of the room blocks (2 & 3) so the sun in winter doesn't appear over the cliffs until about 11 am. Therefore, the loungers on the west side of the pools go first. However, you get more of the later sun around the other side. The hotel gardens run down from the hotel entrance towards the town and there are two gates where residents can let themselves in and out with their room key/card rather than using the front entrance of the hotel. There is a shopping centre directly outside the hotel which is a bit incongruous, but it has a useful supermarket and it's probably the quietest shopping centre I've ever seen! There is a market every Friday in the town when busloads of tourists descend, but it wasn't a problem(and you have the advantage of being able to escape back into the peaceful oasis of the hotel gardens) plus it was fun bartering! There are various activities organised during the day by the entertainment team, mostly for children, but also exercise classes in and out of the pool which were a lot better than others I have been to on previous holidays. There are various bars/restaurants on the complex and you can take breakfast at the pool Bar instead of in the main restaurant if you wish, which is a bit quieter. The evening entertainment ranged from gentle piano/saxophone or guitar in the reception bar area to quizzes and 50s/60s/70s nights downstairs in the 'club'. The entertainment wasn't bad; I think the 70s 'Allstars' group were probably the best, but that's just personal preference! We also enjoyed the Friday evening Manager's Cocktail Party! The resort is lovely for strolling around. The harbour area is very pretty and there are lots of restaurants if you want a rest from the hotel's food. Because the resort is the furthest from the airport, the transfer is the longest which lots of drop offs, so paying more for a taxi was worth it for us. If you go on excursions towards Playa del Ingles or Las Palmas the same can apply, so be prepared to be on the coach for a while! I would say this hotel suits mainly older people and couples, but there were quite a lot of families with children staying for the school holidays. We would definitely return to this hotel. We had a lovely holiday with a week of sunshine. Again, Gran Canaria didn't let us down!

We've just returned home after two weeks at the Cordial Mogan Playa, our first trip to the Canary Islands. The hotel is superb - we have no complaints at all (well, maybe we could have done without "Elvis" as one of the entertainment acts............!). The food was excellent at every meal time, and although the hotel was extremely busy over Christmas week-end, we didn't find any queues of more than 4 people at the various food bars. Add to that the fact that the wine of your choice was free with the evening meal on Christmas Day, and that there was a lovely champagne reception in the lobby bar with a trio of lady gospel singers entertaining us with carols, we thought the hotel made a lovely Christmas for everyone. Everyone comments on the grounds, and we aren't going to be the exception - it truly is like staying in a botanical garden. We also visited the archaeological site in the grounds, which is interesting and well-labelled. We had a car for 7 days, and that made life interesting - we looked at a couple of the nearby towns - Maspolamas (for the sand dunes) and Arguineguine, but felt that Puerto Mogan won hands down. Driving inland to small villages was hair-raising in the extreme - we've driven to ski resorts in Europe, and these were the worst hairpin bends we've encountered, not to mention the sheer roadside drops! But most people seemed to be driving sensibly and carefully, so no problems actually occurred - just a bit of nervous anticipation! We haven't been away for Christmas for about 20 years, and this experience has made us very tempted to repeat the trip next year, and to include New Year too!

Stayed second week of December and found most of comments on Tripadvisor spot on. It's more of a village than a hotel all within lovely tropical gardens with some clever water features. I'm not normally bothered by my weight, but towards the end of the week I had to consciously hold back a bit as the food is just so good ! The balcony view from the first room was a bit lacking, but this was changed w/o a problem - the reception were most helpful as indeed was everyone there. They really do seem to put their guests wishes first and everyone seems to have a natural friendly and positive attitude. I noticed that the General Manager gives his personal email and mobile numbers on the paperwork in your room, which says a lot. Not that we needed it. Mogan Playa itself is one of the prettiest locations on the Canaries with eye catching bougainvillea covering the low rise buildings, fronting onto a harbour and marina with lots of restaurants and touristy shops etc and alongside is a good sandy beach. We went there with First Choice who were generally helpful and efficient, but had a disappointing array of excursions. One was "a coach tour to visit a local bakery" but having arrived at such a lovely hotel, who on earth would want to do so ?! Another was a "night out with cabaret etc" but on the far side of the island - not really very savvy. But not an issue as there are excursions from the port and the hotel is effectively self sufficient with good evening entertainment in the hotel and nearby restaurants. So our stay which was extremely enjoyable - just have to ponder a diet for Xmas.

det beste hotellet vi noen gang har bodd på. Det blir så klart vårt valg neste gang vi reiser til Gran Canari

Definitely worth to see and spend some time there. We were there in September 2011 for a week and it was great time.

Var her i 14dager i november 2011. Hadde store forventninger. De ble innfridd og vel så det. Internettet fungerte utmerket også på rommene. Frokosten var fenomenal. God service. Vennlighet i alle ledd. Rent,pent og ryddig. Ved neste besøk på Canari er det bare ett hotell for oss:Cordial Mogan Playa.

This is a beautiful hotel in a lovely resort, on arrival at the hotel we were very impressed with the reception area it really does have the WOW factor, we were greeted with a glass of champagne very much appreciated after the journey from the airport, the staff are very helpful nothing was too much trouble, we asked for a quiet room overlooking the gardens it was gorgeous ,there were a few little problems with the room which were immediately rectified, the dining room was a little overwhelming on the first evening but once we found our bearings it was quite easy, freshly cooked meat and fish every evening fantastic choices of dessert , breakfast was excellent with omlettes made to order everything you could want ,the gardens are outstanding as is the whole of the hotel, entertainment every evening,Puerto mogan itself is a very pretty resort,would definitely go back to this hotel highly recommend it

We have just returned from an excellent week spent at this beautiful hotel, The layout and decor of this hotel is first-class and we're puzzled why it is classified as 4 star plus, rather than 5 star.The staff are all friendly and cannot do enough to ensure that your holiday is enjoyable. Unlike some other reviewers we were very impressed with the choice and quality of the food in the main restaurant, though we do agree that the dining room can get busy at times.The gourmet restaurant was superb and we thought it was good value for money with the 15 euro discount we got because we had booked half-board. A terrible accident occurred while we were there, leading to two fatalities and some serious injuries involving members of the staff. At first we wanted instant information on what had happened, then when we realised that the staff and management were having to deal with such a serious situation we were then full of admiration with the way that they managed to continue to provide a full service to all their guests at a time when many of their staff were grieving.This made the hotel go up even further in our estimation because of the professional way things were handled and the determination that guests should continue to enjoy their holiday. If anything, it is more likely to make us return as we felt a solidarity with the staff and what they were going through. Puerto Mogan itself is, in our opinion, the prettiest resort on the island .

Wir waren 2011 im Mai und im November je zwei Wochen im Cordial Mogan Playa. Die Anlage ist ein kleines Paradies (Oase). Es gibt nur wenige Zimmer mit schlechter Lage (zur Zufahrt und Dauerberieselung von einer Freiluftbar im nahegelegenen Einkaufszentrum). Freundlicherweise konnten wir ein solches Zimmer wegtauschen. Für uns sind die beheizten Pools der wesentliche Vorteil, da wir gerne Schwimmen. Das Essen ist ist gut, aber auf Dauer doch immer gleich. Nur wenn man nicht alle Speisen täglich auf den Teller legt bleibt die Abwechslung. Leider kommen Vegetarier auch in diesem Hotel zu kurz. Trotz eines traurigen Gasunfalls während unseres Urlaubs wurde die Situation für uns nicht zu schlimm. Fahnen auf Halbmast, Trauertreffen in der Kapelle und Trauersträuße zeigten die Anteilnahme ohne zu großen Einfluß auf den Urlaubsalltag. Das Personal ist ausgesprochen freundlich. In der Hotelhalle treten regelmäßig Musiker auf (mit überwiegend vom Recorder eingespielter Begleitung). Wenn allerdings gleichzeitig in der Kellerbar eine Band spielt oder neben dem Musiker Fussball gezeigt wird, ist kein Genuss mehr möglich. Da das Hotel vollständig ausgebucht war, vielleicht auch weil im Nachbarort Taurito das 800 Betten Hotel Mogan Princess nur noch gebucht werden kann wenn die anderen Hotels voll sind, war im Speisesaal meist ein "roush-our - feeling", allerdings auf gehobenem Niveau. In der Hotelanlage gibt es keine Dauerlärmberieselung was für uns ein wesentlicher Pluspunkt für das Hotel ist.

We arrived at the hotel at 8:30pm after an easy 45 min drive from the airport in our hired car. During check-in the receptionist saw that we were half board and made arrangements for us to have dinner before we were shown to our room. I cant fault the food quality or variety on offer in the restaurant, 3 varieties of meat and fish cooked fresh in front of you which changes every night along with the vast choice of other food on offer. We had booked a suite which was at the far end of the hotel gardens. The suite was well serviced twice a day with clean towels and in the evening our beds sheets were turned down and chocolate left at the bedside.There was a seperate restaurant for breakfast and lunch only and another pool at our end of the hotel grounds. A quiet hotel experience, very relaxing with no noisy teenagers, beautiful gardens and very friendly staff. I am finding it difficult to find any negatives but maybe tea/coffee making facilities in the room would be good and possibly a pool waiter would benefit both the hotels income and the relaxed people lazing by the pool.

We stayed at this hotel for the third time in November 2011. The hotel and the place - Puerto de Mogan - are - literally spoken - recommended at the warmest.

Me and my boy-friend stayed at this hotel in August 2011 for a week. Our first impressions were 'WOW'. The hotel is very grand, we got greeted with champagne/ juice even at half 2 in the morning! The hotel grounds were AMAZING and we would go back in an instant We were even called in our room by the hotelk manager just to make sure that we were enjoying our stay. And everyone in the hotel were invited to a champagne reception by the pool in the evening, where we were introduced to the hotel manager and staff. Anyone that has said that this hotel is rubbish must be insane. It is by far the best hotel that we have ever stayed in.

Visited this hotel in April as a 50th birthday treat so we were looking for something special. We were not disappointed. The hotel is very well run and beautifully laid out and the staff are efficient, pleasant and friendly. We were half board and had booked a junior suite which has the advantage of an exclusive restaurant for breakfast, a turn down service at night and use of bathrobes during your stay. The suite was well appointed in a tranquil area in beautiful gardens at the rear of the hotel. The food was excellent in the buffet restaurant and gourmet standard in the a la carte Los Guyares restaurant (on the half board option you are allocated 15 Euros per person towards the bill once per week of your stay) we had a wonderful meal there on the terrace overlooking the waterfall and the gardens. The entertainment in the hotel is a bit hit or miss in the evenings, we preferred to walk into Puerto Mogan after dinner for a drink or relax on the balcony of the suite. The facilities in the hotel are excellent it is spotlessly clean throughout and the pool area is beautiful with the comfiest loungers we have ever encountered. Some other nice touches are the managers cocktail party, the fruit platter and the champagne glasses and wine glasses provided in the suite. Overall a relaxing holiday which lived up to the description in the brochure

Acabamos de pasar una semana en este hotel, en pleno mes de noviembre el hotel estaba lleno, y no es de estrañar. Las instalaciones son fantásticas para un hotel de 4 estrellas. El personal es muy agradable y atento en todo momento. Las habitaciones son amplias aunque hay algunas que tienen mejores vistas que otras (hay que pedir habitaciones con vistas a la piscina, los módulos B y C son los mejores y después de hacer la reserva se puede llamar al hotel para que te alojen en uno de estos dos módulos). El bufet del desayuno y de la cena es fantástico. El hotel es enorme, muy amplio, a pesar de estar lleno no tienes sensación de agobio ni siquiera en el restaurante. Es uno de los mejores hoteles en los que he estado en Canarias. Muy recomendable.

A pesar de estar lleno este hotel es todo amabilidad, desde recepcion, bazar, camareros, jardineros, todo el personal, la comida excelente, la unica pega que le encuentro es que la persona que esta en la puerta no se ofrece a sacar ni meter las maletas en el coche. Las instalaciones magnificas, bien cuidado, sin problemas de hamacas, sombrillas, etc, Es obligatorio no perderse la zona de arqueologia que esta dentro del hotel. La Playa a diez minutos.

We stayed in September 2011 and loved it. As many of the reports say, dont go there if you want lively. But you can get a bus/taxi into Los Christianos for a day (we did that to swim in the sea) if you need to. But we really loved the Apart/hotel and would definitely go back. Met some lovely people there, within 15 minutes of relaxing on our sunbeds, fellow guests and the lovely entertainment guy had persuaded us (not pushed!) into playing a game. Plenty of sunbeds and lovely pool. Such a comfortable place - wish we had stayed longer. Only ate in the restaurant for breakfast the day we were leaving - ok - but we do like eating out in different restaurants and found the wonderful Rendevous Restaurant just down the road. We enjoy walking and the coastal path was delightful and relaxing. The apartment itself was lovely, we overlooked the road, but it was very cool, as opposed to the guests overlooking the pool - it was extremely hot while we were there. Walked to Los Abrigos, so pretty, but it was too hot to eat lunchtime, although we had a few beers there before the walk back. But everyone recommended the amazing fish restaurants there. All staff at hotel from reception to cleaners very happy and helpful. Bed changed frequently and soo comfortable.

En fantastisk service, lekkert anlegg, hyggelig betjening, nydelig mat, virkelig balsam for sjelen. Kan absolutt anbefales!

We stayed at the hotel from 5 - 12 November. It had been highly recommended by a friend and we were not disappointed. The hotel is beautifully laid out and the grounds are lovely. All the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The hotel was not full when we were there and we had no problems with queues anywhere or finding a tranquil spot to relax. We stayed on a half board basis in a junior suite (chosen largely so that we would have peace and quiet!). The suite was lovely and very peaceful. The junior suite also entitled us to have breakfast until 11 in the quiet pool-side restaurant and to a free meal in the lovely a la carte restaurant in the hotel. (We also had a free half bottle of white wine and half bottle of red wine with the meal which was an unexpected added bonus. NB We booked our meal on Tuesday for Thursday evening and had no problem. I overheard someone trying to book a table on Thursday evening for that evening or the following night and was told that the restaurant was fully booked for both nights so it is probably a good idea to book up early if you want to eat there.) We didn't particularly want to stay half board but were given no choice by our travel company. We would have preferred to stay on a B & B basis and ended up swapping dinner for lunch on three nights and eating out near the harbour which was lovely. The hotel was expensive for drinks and I would advise either stocking up at the local supermarket and storing the drinks in the fridge in the room and/or having a pre-dinner drink by the harbour which is gorgeous. The hotel buffet was excellent but the second sitting was at 8.30 which is a little later than we'd prefer and the first sitting was rather too early. We were surprised that the hotel was unable to operate on a walk in basis, especially when it is not full. The hotel is situated about 15 minutes' walk from the lovely harbour (or about 5 minutes' walk from our suite using the back gate). The resort is lovely and i would think is probably the prettiest and least spoilt of the resorts on the island. We took a boat trip to Puerto Rico on one day. The boat ride was nice but Puerto Rico is tacky and has little to recommend it. My husband took a ride on the submarine from Puerto de Mogan harbour which he thought was quite interesting and we hired a car and driver for the day on one day and went on a tour of the island which was worth doing. (Teror is lovely.) All in all, if you want a relaxing week in lovely surroundings I would highly recommend the hotel.

Just back from an absolutely fantastic holiday at this hotel. The experience was second to none, the service was first class and the staff were excellent. Our rooms were 2207, 2208 and would highly receommend them. We travelled with teenage children who had lots to keep them entertained on our break, it was ideal for them. We have stayed in many hotels over the last number of years and have never made any recommendations on trip advisor. So signs are on that we really did love this holiday.

Ett fantastiskt fint hotell med hög standard, rent och snyggt. Maten som serverades såväl vid frukost som middagspensionen var av hög kvalitet och med ett rikligt utbud av rätter. Rätterna var snyggt upplagda så att det var en fröjd för ögat.Servicen på resturangerna var synnerligen god. Mångfalden av de exotiska växterna inom hotellet var välskötta och frächa.Stora rena badpoler med kostnadsfria stolar och handdukar.

We arrived on the 3rd October 2011 for 1 week. The staff were excellent and the rooms were kept very clean. One of the largest hotels we have stayed in but due to it's lovely layout it is not imposing. Plenty of walkways lined with vegetation. Would we go back - absolutely. The only bit we struggled with was the buffet style evening meals - food and the options were brilliant but the queuing with other guests on occassion was a little irritating (only when fellow European's have no manners and not the hotels fault!).

Even though in the more expensive end, it was perhaps the best vacation ever! Actually the kids now want to go there instead of skiing.... (4 and 7 years). Much older kids might find it a bit borring, but we are going again!

Et glimrende hotel som så absolutt stod til beskrivelsen. Nydelig resepsjonsområde. Fantastisk frokostbuffet med kaviar og champagne. Ikke vant til det daglig. Nydelig beplantning og generelt god plass. Kan så absolutt anbefales. Ta juniorsuite, det lønner seg.

We stayed here in October 2010 and left a full review of our stay which can be found way down the list. Having returned in October 2011, I am happy to report that the high standards have been maintained and I am a heartbeat away from booking for October 2012 as well. I contacted the hotel prior to departure to request the same room that we had in 2010, which they kindly arranged for me. We had a couple of minor issues with the room but these were sorted quickly and with no fuss. Having stayed there previously, we were more street wise which enhanced the pleasure of our time there. The nightly entertainment was of a good quality and we were pleased to find the ten pin bowling alley which we somehow missed in 2010. There's a small fridge in the rooms which used to be a minibar, but this is now an on request service so there's now plenty of room for your own cold drinks. 5 litre bottles of water for 1 Euro from the shop in reception represents good value. Overall, if you are looking for a place to chill out and have some late year sun, we are more than happy to recommend this hotel.

Just returned from our second visit to this fabulous hotel. Quick check in with a welcome glass of sparking wine from friendly staff who recognised us from our previous stay . A e mail request for a particular room was fully met. The room with a great view of the pool was imaculate with comfy beds and fluffy towels. Free pool towels are available so lose that extra weight in your lugage. We booked full board plus which gives you House Wine, beer and water with lunch and dinner. The hotel has fabulous gardens to wander through and if inclined a botanical tour of the complex is available. The food in the buffet restaraunt is tasty, plentiful with a great choice including show cooking. Veggie meals are available and the breakfasts cater for every taste including sparkling wine! The A La Carte restaurant Los del Guayres is fantastic and if you are on half or full board an allowance of 15 euros per person is deducted from the bill (if you are on full board plus the house wine etc is still included). During our visit the pool bar was closed at night leaving the lobby bar, the lounge bar and the entertainment bar, which are all inside, open. It would have been a pleasure, coming from Scotland, to sit outside at night in the balmy air to have a small libation! A couple of considerations for the Management are although not a 5 star hote,l it would be nice to have tea and coffee making facilities available in your room and please give us any British TV Channel which is not BBC world News. All in all this hotel provides a Top Class holiday at a reasonable cost, the staff from reception, gardeners, waiters and maids are great and are always willing to assist you with any questions. Will be back next year. PS Many thanks for the lovely Birthday cake and champagne provided by the hotel on my wife's Birthday John & Moyra Morrison

The hotel is set in amongst the most lovely surrounding garden areas giving a feeling of privacy and tranquility. There are two swimming pools - one best for families, where the animation team hold aqua classes, water polo etc., the other pool has a more peaceful air about it. We used both. My son had a great time on the 3-day dive course which we booked through the hotel's dive centre. He tried the free 'taster' session held in the 'family' pool (available several afternoons a week) and went on to do the course (theory and practical) with Max and had a further dive with Manu on our last day. This wonderful experience will stay with him. The Taylor family.

Stayed here in October with husband, son, wife and two children aged 3 and 1. Had a great time, apartments really clean and big, lots of room for children to play. Also handy for pool. We were half board and food was excellent, lots of choice. Lovely area and easy to walk to beach along promenade.

We picked this place from previous reviews on trip advisor we chose the 2 bedroom option which I have to say was the correct choice although you have to get used to the lifts 4 in all to get to our room but it sounds worse than it is . The 2 bedroom are huge apartments with two large bathrooms and a balcony which is the biggest we have ever had complete with outdoor shower . For the.kids there is the animation team which has daily activities and a special mention to Karolina who looked after our daughter well with games and arts and crafts certainly took a little pressure off mum and dad .... All in all a good place to stay would consider it again

What a wonderful hotel. Staff were brilliant and made our holiday. Food superb, rooms lovely and clean. Pool area great. Spa lovely and relaxing

Can only echo the glowing reviews below - we stayed here over half term and had a great family holiday with everything we needed on hand. The room had a travel cot ready for us without us even requesting one and they had taken note of all our requests re the room and being near other members of our party. I would recommend our apartment - K230 as it was just above the swimming pool and very close to the restaurant, soft play, laundry, everything! So we didn't even have to use the dreaded lifts!! The pools are not the biggest but this does mean they are not as cold as you sometimes get so you could actually enjoy swimming in them. Our kids really enjoyed the kids club and Karolina does a wonderful job actually doing some arts and crafts with them and not just colouring in. The downside was having to find room in the suitcase for their creations! Food - we were on full board plus which was a good deal despite some meals being better than others. I have had better hotel food but I think what you get is pretty good value for money. There are lots of lovely restaurants in Puerto Mogan though and with teh Hiperdino opposite it is really well set up for a self catering holiday and I would consider this next time. I am sure we will go back!

I've just returned from the Cordial Mogan Playa, and was very pleased with the overall holiday experience. The grounds are fantastic; it's as though the hotel has been built inside a sub-tropical Kew Gardens! The pools are probably the cleanest I have come across, and generallty the level of service and facilities is very high. Inevitably, there are a few minor moans: MarieStretford's recent review was absolutely right about the evening buffet. After a couple of 'bun fights' we took the option of having the lunchtime buffet (smaller, but far calmer), and then going out for the evening. We had one dinner at the a-la-carte restaurant on site, but this wasn't exceptional (although the atmosphere was lovely). Also, be aware that the Friday hotel tour drags on for over two hours - but you can't escape the latter part because you've gone underground into the bowels of the hotel. Aside from these gripes, I thoroughly recommend the hotel for anyone wanting a package hotel with significantly more up-market feel than the average

this place is like heaven i enjoyed every bit of it though i found it expensive but just loved it greats ervice great room i dont have any complains

Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa A most unusual layout for a hotel, not boring and repetitive blocks, but imaginative and tropical. Water and streams are used to effect and really enhance the the atmosphere. Reception was polite and efficient, we were shown to our room by a friendly porter who pointed out the salient points of the hotel as we went. The room passed all tests for cleanliness, we could not detect anything wrong at all, it also stayed that way as room service was first class. The air conditioning worked well and was not noisy or intrusive. The grounds are very well kept with interesting trees and shrubs in abundance. Both pool areas are clean and well maintained, the use of salt instead of chlorine is a huge plus as you don't leave the pool smelling of bleach. There are ample sun beds, the most comfortable I've ever met, with parasols available. Food was first class at all times with a wide selection, well cooked and replaced frequently. One complaint is that water is not supplied free at dinner and costs E2.1 for a small bottle. The management tried hard to make everyone's stay a success and were often seen “walking the patch” a questionnaire we completed outlined that the morning coffee was not hot enough, this was soon rectified. Evening entertainment was generally good, the Choice Show Band were very professional and put on an excellent show. Other tribute bands were also worth a visit. Tea and coffee facilities in rooms were not available anywhere despite some brochures saying they were. Bar drinks are a bit pricey but can be bought outside at a reasonable price, no one seemed to worry if you brought in a carry bag full of drink. There is a fridge in the room, handy for keeping beer and water cool. The harbour area is pleasant to walk around at night with many bars and restaurants available. The beach is safe and sandy (sahara sand) and only a short walk from the hotel.

Just arrived home having had two fantastic weeks at this hotel. This is the first time on a holiday where I can honestly say ALL the staff are very proffessional and friendly unlike most of the staff we came into contact with at Doncaster airport!. The staff take pride in their jobs and it makes the holiday more enjoyable. Our only gripe was the lack of staff at the bars but it didn't spoil our enjoyment. The hotel and gardens are very clean and the food was fantasic with lots of choice even for vegetarians. Being able to swap an evening meal for lunch came in handy and it was nice to eat lunch in another buiding for a change. The rooms are spacious and there are plently of sunbeds!! The beauty of this destination is not only the hotel but the picturesque harbour which is bar far the nicest along the coast. Will be returing in the New Year.

This is our 3rd visit to this hotel and we always find it is exactly what it says on the tin! We have been at various times of year but this is the first time in the winter months (first week in October) despite having a ground floor room (which is one of my pet hates!!) everything was great, food does become a little samey and alcohol prices seem to have increased dramatically at dinner and in the bar but okay. I do wish the hotel would start it's own transfer service though as being on the usual package holiday bus for a long time does always taint the start and end of the break!!! We did try the spa this time and found the treatments to be great and okay prices in comparison, I did feel that you should not have to pay to use the sauna and steam room etc as an extra!!

These bungalows are fantastic six of us statyed at green golf and we where giving two bungalows right next to each other. both bungalows were in a great and clean condition. The grounds of the complex are also in great condition and everyday we saw upkeep of the grounds. After reading other reviews i was worried about the "rude / unhelpful staff" but every member of staff i met was smiling and very helpful! The complex also offers free buses down to the dunes of maspalomas and playa del ingles, But taxis our very cheap as well. Green Golf is a fantastic complex and we will be returning!

We stayed here for the 4th time in January 2011 - my husband & two children aged 4 & 2. The whole place is spotlessly clean, well maintained and the rooms clean & comfortable. The food is good and I always know that there is something that the children will eat. It would probably get a bit samey if you stopped for two weeks but thr fish & meat grills means that you get a good variety. The hotel is in a great position and most days we would walk into the town. The pools are very clean and there are plenty of sunbeds. The only thing I would like is more english guests. My little girl loves meeting & playing with other children but over 90% of the guests are germans so the language proves a huge barrier! The kiddie club is great too. I really can't fault this hotel. They cater very well for families and that's why we keep returning. Can't wait for January 2012!

We have recently returned from the most calm, relaxing and enjoyable holiday we have had in a number of years. Cordial Mogan Playa is set in the charming, picturesque Puerto de Mogan with its lovely beach, shops and harbour. It is a beautiful area to stroll around and soak up the local atmosphere. The Hotel rewarded us with excellent service from its friendly, attentive staff, delicious food and exceptional entertainment. This Hotel is so confident of its standards it encourages its visitors to go on 'The Hotel Tour', which takes a couple of hours to look around the hotel's nooks and crannies, which sounds boring but was the most fascinating insight to what makes a hotel tick and the high standards that Cordial Mogan Playa uphold. We cannot fault the care and attention we received on our holiday and are looking forward to returning again soon

Puerto Mogan is a great choice for the visitor who doesn't want thumpety - thump nightlife - it is small but based around a genuine old fishing port rather than being a purpose built resort. So it has charm and also a good choice of restaurants, but no water parks, crazy golf or time share salesmen. The hotel is outstanding. It is scrupulously clean and the staff seem to share a genuine commitment to customer service. Food is buffet based with almost too much choice. There are two swimming pools - one with 'animation' and the other a bit quieter - set in grounds that could qualify as a botanical garden. And there are a lot of grounds; you could spend hours wandering around. It is also what we in the UK would call DDA compliant with specific rooms for people with disability. Rooms are a good size with a decent balcony and air-con. There was free entertainment of a reasonable standard every night of our stay; a Bee Gees tribute - not usually what we would watch - was actually quite outstanding . An unusual highlight was a (daytime) tour of the hotel (taking a staggering 2 hours) that included visiting all the backroom parts - including laundry and kitchens - that hotel guests usually never see. It says a lot about their confidence that they are prepared to show these areas, and it reinforced the impression of a high quality operation staffed by people who care about giving guests a good time. So no negatives really - you'll pay 4 star prices in the bars, but there are nearby supermarkets where you can get perfectly drinkable wine from two or three euros (no really, it was perfectly drinkable!) And it was very hot in October - in the 30's - but a dry heat so when we go again we'll probably leave it to the new year.

We have just returned from two sunny weeks at Cordial Hotel Mogan Playa and found this exceptional hotel to be even better than we remembered.We first stayed there in February this year and for the first time in over 20 years of European travel returned to a hotel in the same calendar year.There are nine accommodation blocks ,with a total of 480 rooms and suites,spread over a huge area of trees and bushes and 2 massive pools .The architecture of the buildings is mind boggling with trees and waterfalls galore.Helpful staff and omnipresent management never revealed a sullen frown and always greeted you with "ola".The food was excellent .Mogan,a small village when we first saw it in 1998,has not suffered from its major development ,and its flower strewn area known as Little Venice is still the same as it was 13 years ago.It would be unfair to single out any particular member of staff as "the star"but that title could be shared between the air conditioning (an unfailing relief to return to after a day of temperatures in the mid 30s)and the coach driver who returned us to the airport after nonchalantly manoeuvring his large vehicle through ten point turns in the pick-up hotels'narrow driveways.

We were a little apprehensive as we were "stuck" here for 10 days! But we needn't have worried. The hotel fully deserves the 4 star rating ...and maybe even more. it is clear there are friendly and professional managers here. I have always said...happy managers = happy staff= happy (repeat) customers. Reception was effortless, friendly and smiling. And Wow! The hotel itself is just a wonderful collection of well designed and thought out buildings. The reception area just beggars a stroll around. Our room was fine with all you will need for a sun holiday. We experienced some noise, like furniture moving, but a polite word to our neighbours fixed the problem. Our "double" bed..why 2 singles?? And the mattress? Mmmm...hard and not nice. TIP...ask for a softer over mattress. I only realised this the day we left!! The pools are the centre pieces and deservedly so. Plenty of sun beds and great bar service. Each lounger has a wireless pager for service! The pools themselves are spotless as are the surrounds. I prefer the pool nearest the reception. Less pesky, noisy kids. The gardens and their maintenance are a credit to the gardeners and my compliments to them as an ex landscape designer. The hotel caters for 1,000 guests with about 260 staff. However you don't ever feel there are 1,000 guests! The restaurant is wonderful. We luckily had an outside table and were able to enjoy the gardens and the water features which were right beside us. Fabulous! There was never a sense of rush or panic as is often the case with buffets. But then we always wait awhile. If I have a gripe it is with the food. The breakfast is deffo one of the best we have had in any hotel, including many a 5 star. Lots of fresh fruit, great pastry and bread selection, meats, cheeses, juices, shakes, smoothies, cereals, hot buffet, cava (!) etc, etc. I had only one gripe here. I like bacon as do most people in the morning. The bacon offered was uncooked, white and should not have left the kitchen as it did...it should have been crispy. Also, the sausages were not good. The dinner for us became monotonous. I would suggest less salads and more live cooking stations such as a paella station and a pasta/pizza station in addition to the meat/carvery station. There is a pizza station but well hidden away! The hot buffet selection just did not do it for us. It was bland and uninspiring. The desserts were good and varied. We ate out twice, once in the village and once in the restaurant upstairs. Worth a visit, if a bit pricey. A special mention to the wonderful and ebullient Carmello, the maître d'. And to our professional and attentive waiter, Alfonso. Both true professionals who helped make our stay a very enjoyable one. The cleanliness throughout the hotel was exemplary. My other half has hawk eyes for the smallest speck of dust and this hotel passed with flying colours!! All in all this gets 5 from us as there are far too many good and great points that far outweigh any small gripes.

We stayed at the Cordial Mogan Playa last week and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The Hotel is an amazing structure centred around an enormous circular building - The reception staff were extremely polite and we received a glass of bubbly on arrival. The room was very comfortable and included a large bathroom with bath and shower plus a separate WC. The cleaniness was superb, air conditioning which worked really well, towels changed most days, a fridge in the room for your own refreshments etc. The restaurant, although large, provided any food you could imagine.Eggs at breakfast and other items prepared in front of you by the chefs. For dinner we had a reserved table of our choice and many foods were on offer including amazing fish (a choice of at least 3 each evening), huge variation of salad items and various selections of hot meats and vegetables. The attention to hygiene was first class and the restaurant staff were so helpful and polite. The wine on offer was reasonably priced (about the same as UK). The outside pool areas are exceptional with loads of beds available and not many people leaving towels to reserve beds etc. Within the grounds there are many well tended garden areas with a huge range of tropical plants and cactus. The evening entertainment was good with tribute bands, acrobats and a modern string trio playing modern music - interesting! We would thoroughly recommend this Hotel and will return asap Finally, there appears to be no sea view rooms, as some of the guests were expecting, but the hotel balconies are sensitively set out as a rule. In saying this some rooms face the cliffs at the rear, but most clients were happy with their accomodation. A truly wonderful experience. M and J Bicester

Stayed at this hotel 1st to 8th October. Having read all the great reviews, we were not disappointed. From the minute we arrived to the minute we left the staff went out of their way to make this one of our best holidays ever. They take customer service as a priority here and the food is of a very high standard too, Rooms too are well furnished and the hotel is worthy of a 5 star rating in my opinion. We went on a guided tour of the hotel on the friday of our holiday along with approx 20 other guests.. We went into the underground tunnel and were shown the kitchens, underneath the swimming pool, the laundry room and the carpenters workshop. We even went into the hotel MD's office and he shook each of our hands in turn and thanked us for staying at the hotel. This was a nice touch indeed and he invited us all to a cocktail party that same evening. We have always stayed in the Riu chain of hotels previously and have always been impressed by them and I didn't think that we would find another hotel that could possibly surpass their brand. I can honestly say that The Cordial Mogan Playa is better in every respect. We will be back, the sooner the better!!

we previously stayed here 3 years ago and wondered if we could be a little disappointed 2nd time around, could it possible be as good as we remembered. We shouldn't have worried, once again it was a marvellous stay in a first class hotel. From the moment we arrived to the time we left it was so relaxing and the staff were excellent. The sun loungers have to be the most comfortable ever, I could have slept on one through the night, the beds were quite hard, only a slight criticism. Food was again very good with so much choice and the price of drinks was reasonable compared to other hotels we have stayed in. The cocktails were absolutely yummy, if you like mint try the Grasshopper. The pool was spotless and just the right temperature, it was so peaceful at the pool nearest to reception, absolute bliss. Can't wait to go back again!

This is our 3rd year at this hotel and we were again not disappointed. It is a 4 star hotel but probably could be a 5 star. The moment you get there, the Reception staff are great, there is a glass of bubbly for each guest and a porter takes your cases to your room. From then on, its first class all the way. There are plenty of sun loungers and umbrellas so no one has to fight to get them, or get up at the crack of dawn. The restaurant serves fabulous meals, the weather is heaven - what more can I say? Also, if you get chance to go to their exclusive Las Guevayes restaurant, you get a discount of 15 euros as part payment against your half board. I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough.

We were looking for a holiday to rest a recouoperate and we certainly found this at the Cordial Mogan Playa. I had researched this hotel in depth and the surrounding area and was not disappointed when we arrived. The hotel is certaily worthy of a 5* accomodation, the staff were very accomodating and friendly. The harbour area is quiet but thats what we were looking for on this holiday. We sat most evenings sipping Sangia people watching overlooking the sea whilst the sun set, we then wondered back to the hotel in time for drinks at the cocktail bar in the hotel. We will be returning as soon as we can. I would recommend a private taxi from the airport, we booked this in the UK at £80 return and was much better than sitting on a coach fo a couple of hours.

We stayed in the hotel (there are apartments nearby) and were really very impressed. Puerto Mogan resort is very pretty and there are lots of little restaurants and bars and a pretty marina. It isn't typical of the resorts on this island at all - thankfully!! On our journey from the airport we were terrified that we would end up in a resort like the ones we were passing through en route (from memory I think these were Playa d'Ingles and Puerto Rico). We were so pleased to finally arrive at this hotel!! It is a fairly long journey from the airport and the last stop the coach makes. We were the last two people on the coach. But it is really really worth it and we have both said that we will definitely return again. The weather was fantastic (we stayed end of Aug-Sept). The hotel itself is really beautiful and spotlessly clean. Food in the restaurants was to a really good standard with lots of variety and choice and they are flexible changing from evening meal to lunch if you are on half board. We changed to lunch a few times and again, the standard and variety was really good. My only complaint food wise would be regarding the main hotel poolbar - don't try it. It was awful and not typical of this hotel or the rest of our experience here at all. The only other problems with this holiday/resort are easily solved I think - firstly, I agree with other reviews that the resort really isn't big enough to hold your interest over a week and especially over two weeks. But it is quiet and pretty and that's far more important to us than a full on entertainment resort. There is a good beach - it is quite small but it is very clean and lovely. There are a number of little shops and boutiques and it is very charming. The restaurants we tried in the harbour served gorgeous food - especially fresh fish. Because the resort was small, we hired a car and toured the island and I would really recommend this to anyone - stay away though from the horrid resorts and go inland - it is a very pretty island. The roads through the mountains are a bit insanely terrifying at times but thankfully the boyfriend did the driving and the photos we took are fab. The only other problem is the coach journey transfer from Las Palmas airport - when we go again we will definitely book a taxi or pick a hire car up at the airport. We both said that spending well over an hour twisting up and down the roads of Puerto Rico in a coach at 2am is something we don't want to repeat. If you do take the coach - don't be dismayed as you make your way through all of the horrid resorts en route. The hotel at the end of your journey is fab - we are hotel snobs and loved it!!

Vi hade höga förväntningar på hotellet utifrån vad vi läst på det här forumet men allt stämde till 100%. Trädgården var helt underbar med alla sina växter från hela världen; gröna frodiga i välskötta rabatter som bl a gav skön skugga vid poolområdena. Dessa var väldigt fina och välordnade med sköna solsängar och dessutom bubbelpooler till allas glädje. Vi bodde i en junior suite vilken höll hög standard med bra fasthet i sängarna, ej för hårda som vissa tycker. Oberoende vilken personalkategori du hade kontakt med så bemöttes man på ett mycket bra sätt, inget var omöjligt. Trevligt med flera olika resuranger, med mycket bra mat, för intag av fruskost, lunch och/eller middag. Sammantaget, inklusive närheten till Mogans charmiga och pittoreska centrum, gör att vi gärna återvänder till Cordial Mogan Playa.

I have stayed in many hotels around the world, and the Mogan Playa stands out as one of the very best. The environment within the hotel, and it's grounds, is faultless with a huge variety of plants and water features. The staff are friendly and attentive, and the restaurants are of a very good standard with a wide variety of well cooked and presented food. My only negative comment applies to the nearby village. The harbour and the small beach are attractive, although there is not enough variety to maintain ones interest over a weeks holiday.

Just back from a weeks' stay here and from the moment we arrived we knoew we were going to enjoy ourselves.. The Receptionist (Anamaria) organised room service for us as we arrived later than we intended and missed dinner - however we "exchanged" this for lunch on our last day. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable with aircon. Minor quibble - why only one English language TV channel - BBC news. Gardens and pools are wonderful and the atrium area around reception is just stunning. I liked the little short cut through the gardens to the main area of Puerto Mogan. Having chosen the 2nd dinner sitting we felt we didn't need to rush to get ready which suited us fine as we had a lovely wee garden to sit in with a drink. Puerto Mogan has changed since our last visit 12 years ago but still retains its charm. We hope to return to this terrific hotel in March, this time bringing my mother who will shortly celebrate her 80th birthday - we can't wait to show her how good it is!!

I wasnt convinced with all the "excellent" reviews on trip advisor being disappointed in the pasr but we decided to give it a try for a family break with our toddler daughters. It has been everything we expected and a hell of alot more. The booking advisors with Cordial have been excellent, we got interconnecting rooms with an adjoining hall creating tremendous space but also extra security. Food is 5 star, childrens club and animation team superb and staff wonderful, polite and intuitive.We have visited similar five star family hotels in the canaries and it is a surprise the Mogan Playa has not been awarded its fifth star yet. We cant wait to come back in 2012.

Recomendable para todo el mundo , sobretodo si bucas un hotel tranquilo con buen servicio y alejado de aglomeraciones y ruidos .

My couple and me spent a week at Cordial Mogan Playa with our eight years old child and I must say that this is maybe one of the best hotels I've ever been. Leisure facilities always enjoyable, specially the gorgeous garden area. I would like to highlight the kindness and professionalism of the enterteinment staff, they made us feel at home among them. Of course I would recomend this hotel to other British couples with little children.

The many positive reviews on this site are not wrong - we found this to be an excellent hotel, we had a great time and are already planning to return. There's not a lot I can add to the many detailed reviews already here. Personally I feel that the most impressive thing about the hotel is the fact that although it's a huge complex with a large number of guests, the sprawling layout of the grounds means that it never really feels busy or crowded. It's obvious that they take a great deal of pride in the appearance of the hotel and gardens and the whole place looks very well taken care of. Food was excellent, I am a bit of a fussy eater and my partner is vegetarian, and we both found plenty we could eat every night. Breakfast was a particular highlight. This is the first hotel I've been to in the Canaries where you could still ge a sun lounger beyond 10AM - there are two large pool areas and we always saw sun loungers available at both of the pools throughout the day. The pools are huge and a nice temperature, and outdoor jacuzzis are also available which was a nice touch! We spent a little extra money on a Junior Suite - we were in two minds before we booked but if you can I would definitely recommend it. We had a separate living area, bedroom and a private garden with our own loungers. The layout of the suites is fantastic - they are set back a little from the main hotel towards the resort, you almost feel like you have your own private villa in the sun. Well worth every penny. There is free, reliable, fast wifi Internet in the lobby too - fantastic. If I had any criticism, I would say that drinks are a little expensive - however the bar service was always excellent, and they use premium brand name spirits in all the drinks so the cocktails are very nice. In the main restaurant the drinks service was occasionally a little slow, but I think the staff are just getting used to a new computerised ordering system. Entertainment was of the variable quality you normally find, but there's a magic show which was well worth seeing, very entertaining! The resort was nice, it's split into two halves, a beach and a Marina, with a channel separating them. There are some nice cafes and restaurants in both halves, the beach half had some nice ice cream places too. There's a shortcut out of the back of the hotel to get to the resort (accessible with room key card) which was a nice touch as it saved a bit of walking. For a relaxing holiday this would be hard to beat. I think you'd have to go looking for problems not to like this hotel. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.

Wow! What an amazing hotel. Having read the reviews we were expecting something good but never imagined that it would be this good.Our most relaxing holiday ever. We hardly left the hotel which is unusual for us on holiday. All staff were really helpful and friendly and any requests were dealt with immediately. Food good with a great choice. The hotel and gardens were beautiful and always spotless. The reception area was stunning. We were really pleased that we had booked a Junior Suite with a separate lounge area - we even had our own garden surrounded by a hedge and trees. The entertainment was mostly good and enjoyable. Jens and the animation team were brilliant- great fun and always very professional-the best we have encountered. Thank you all! Management were always around the hotel and happy to talk to us. We cannot speak highly enough of this hotel. We will be back!

Im just back from Gran Canaria having stayed at the Cordial Mogan Playa Hotel as a lone traveller. The hotel and its staff are out of this world, the setting and service couldnt have been better. I was last off the transfer bus and by then was a bit worried as to what I was going to, (having seen some really nice hotels on the way)..................I shouldnt have wasted a moment worrying. The general appearance of the hotel was of a really high standard and the reception staff couldnt have been more helpful. The food was brilliant with ample choice for even the fussiest of eaters. The wine and soft drinks were I thought a bit on the expensive side, Id advise to upgrade to include drinks in your tariff. The restaurant staff were quietly efficient and very thoughtful in giving me a table to the edge of the dining room where I felt comfortable as I was eating on my own. I used the spa and wellness centre and the gym, both were great and no problem with getting on the equipment at the gym even although its fairly small. The evening entertainment was really worth seeing and of a standard that I would happily have paid to go and see in a club back home. Playa de Mogan is a beautiful little fishing village but not much to do if your looking for night life or to entertain teenage kids. However if your looking for a total chill out, relaxing holiday in beautiful surroundings then it certainly hits the mark. Would definately rate this as one of the best hotels Ive stayed in and will definately go back.

We had the most wonderful holiday in The Cordial Hotel Mogan it was our second visit in a year it is the most amazing hotel we are ruined for life simply fabulous. It just has it all great facilities, food superb, staff so friendly and great value for money. I have raved about this hotel to all my friends and family since my return and 4 couples have been since and loved it. Go on the Half Board the food is so good each day with their quirky dance fresh fish cooked in front of you every night and the most amazing salads. The pools are so tranquil and relaxing and the entertainment team always give you a laugh with their catchy dance and tune. You must visit Los Guayres the fine dining restaurant for 1 night it is gorgeous and such good value. There is nothing I can complain about for this hotel except why could my holiday not have been longer!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just been back to the hotel for the third time and it didn't disappoint. It is really a fantastic hotel. The staff are so attentive from the time of checking in to checking out. Nothing is a problem. Check-in is quick and efficient and greeted with glass of bubbly or orange juice. The hotel is spotlessly clean and is constantly being cleaned by staff. The pool areas are lovely and towels are provided which is a bonus as you don't have to bring any with you and use up valuable travel allowance. This visit we had a meal in Los Guayres restaurant in the hotel and the food was wonderful. There was a good choice of dishes on the menu but doesn't really cater for vegetarians. One of our party celebrated his birthday while at the hotel and the General Manager sent up a note with a slice of birthday cake to our room. A really nice touch. The staff are really friendly and so attentive to children. This is a great hotel for families but equally a great hotel for couples or solo travellers. It absolutely caters for everyone. We had a problem on the first night with our air con and the next morning reported it before we went to breakfast. By the time we came back to our room the problem was rectified. The hotel also provides free of charge toppers for the bed if guests find the beds too hard. We asked for these and they were provided straight away. The hotel is in a great location. Near to the port with the various little bars and restaurants. There is a market on Friday morning and is just a 2 minute walk from the hotel. Can't wait to go back again.

My first experience of the Canaries - just waiting to re-book soon. Amazing location, amazing public spaces amazing a la carte dining experience (twice) If you are looking for a hotel that offers something different in the way of decor and service that is on a low level non high rise canary experience book this hotel. Quiet pool areas , amazing jaccuzzi spa, excellent Half board food, Good rooms and friendly staff a perfect piece of paradise.

A very well deserved 4+ rated hotel the first impressions you get on entering the reception and lobby area are amazing and you will not be disappointed the further you enter the hotel and grounds. The rooms and grounds are kept to a very high standard and we were very impressed by the friendly and helpful staff. good selection and quality of food. The hotel is sited about 10 minutes walk from the picturesque harbour of puerto mogan with plenty of shops restaurants and bars. the resort is quite laid back and peaceful. We would certainly recommend this hotel and will certainly return in the near future. one of the best hotels we have stayed at for some years. 10 out of 10 to all at the hotel for making our stay most enjoyable.

This hotel is amazing! When you first enter the lobby its decor is totally different from the usual boring hotel receptions. There are indoor waterfalls, a massive clock tower that is over a wooden bridge which is illuminated at night. On arrival you are offered juice, water or champagne, a nice touch after a long flight! The rest of the hotel is very impressive as well. The whole hotel is spotless and i have never seen so many staff constantly making sure the place is immaculate. The rooms are spacious and have AC. The bathrooms are also large and a selection of toiletries are provided (hair/body shampoo, soaps, combs, makeup remover pads etc) We had two cots in our room and both very comfortable with toddler size pillows! Also for the kids on channel 23 they have their own cartoon about 'Carlos Caterpillar' who comes from Mogan. Our lot loved this so much we ended up getting the 3 DVDs and are being watched over and over at home! Beach towels are provided you just need to bring your room card down the first day and then every day after that you can go back and change towels. The pools in the hotel are fabulous, nicely warm and start off very shallow that you walk into like walking into the sea great for when our toddler wanted to play at the edge with his boats. There are jacuzzis situated beside the pools. There is water aerobics if u want to be energetic! The hotel has an outdoor tennis court, bowling lanes and a human size chess board. There is a spa and prices seem reasonable however with 3 small children i didnt get the chance to go there so dont know how good treatments are! There are plants, trees and flowers everywhere and everything is labelled so if you have an interest in plants u will really like this place. We chose to go half board so breakfast and dinner were included and if you want to sample one of the restaurants in Mogan you can swap your dinner for lunch. My only real gripe with the Cordial is the amount of vegetarian food and labelling of food. It would be great if they would state what was suitable for vegetarians. Drinks are very reasonable 2.50 for large water is very good compared to some places we have stayed. The chocolate fountain for dessert was a hit with both kids and adults. There are 2 sittings for dinner and you are asked your preference when u arrive. Then at your dinner you will always have the same table. There are two places to eat during the day one serves sandwiches, cakes and drinks the other has a large menu and is very reasonably prices. I would recommend the Chapata which was like a bruschetta and is €1.50! a margarita pizza is 5.50 and is quite large. You def dont have to blow the budget to eat well here. There is a restaurant for night time if you fancy a break from the buffet and the food is really good. If you are half board they will deduct 15 euro per person. the starters range from 7 to 25 and main courses are around the 20 mark. We ate here one and the service and food (apart from my main, a vegetarian dish of just vegetables) was very good. The chocolate cake was just mouthwatering. In the evening there is a kids disco and entertainment afterwards. There is also a toddlers and kids club during the day. There is a small shop in the hotel and they sell english/spanish and german newspapers and magazines, toiletries and gift items. Water is very cheap there at 1 euro for a 5 litre bottle. The town is just a few minutes walk away and you can walk through the hotel garden and exit out a back door you just need to swipe your room key. The staff at the Cordial are all very pleasant and friendly and I cant recommend this hotel highly enough. I cant wait to go back again next year!

wonderful hotel and town . only downside getting ripped of in a restaurant called "the zoo" had a sign outside saying beer 1 euro , went in had lunch and 3 beers got bill 3.80 euro a beer when asked about price on billboard outside was told it said mini at the top . on very close inspection it was there but it was so small as you would have to stop and look from 6 inches to see it other people also queried the price so it was not only me

Wonderful holiday, excellent location, food excellent, third time of booking!!!

we have just returned from the cordial mogan playa it is a fantastic hotel .we went there for the first time in march this year and couldn't wait to return we were not dissapointed ! sometimes when you return you wish you hadn't but his was not the case.every thing about the hotel is perfect and as we are getting slightly older late 50s we now know what we want and are not affraid to make a complaint if something isn't right . as soon as you enter the hotel you are in another world it is so peaceful even though it is a large hotel there is very little noise except in the main dining area but it is still not a problem . the food especially for us at breakfast is fantastic so much choice .the reason we thought breakfast was better was simply that we do enjoy waiter service in the evening so we always ate in los guayes restaurant the food is superb in there as is the service we even let the chef choose our menu and we were not dissapointed we always find it hard to choose what to eat so we leave it to the experts the chefs! as has been written before the staff in the hotel are brilliant nothing is too much trouble and they always have a smile .the cleanliness of the hotel is unbeliveable .as some one said in another review the only thing wrong was that the beds are rather hard but they are huge and if extra pillows are needed they are there before you know it we love this hotel and we can't wait to return to see all the friendly faces again .

Have just got back from a 7 night stay at this splendid hotel. It was our first ever visit to Gran Canaria and we'll definitely be returning. So many of our friends + family had recommended Puerto de Mogan it made sense to check it out. The resort is very quiet which for us is perfect. Although we are only in our early 20's the last thing we want is a tacky noisy holiday! The fact that Mogan has a gorgeous harbour and easy congenial vibe only adds to the experience. We arrived at the hotel late last Saturday night, although we had missed the 2nd sitting for Dinner the staff were more than happy to provide us with some food which was presented in a neat little hamper. As we were quite tired we opted to take the food straight to our room, a personable bellboy (with assisted us with our luggage. If this guy hadn't been on duty I'd of bought him a drink at the hotel bar, great personality and a credit to the hotel. Whilst I'm on the topic of the staff my girlfriend and I found them all very friendly and more than happy to help. Our 'standard' room was spacious with the balcony overlooking one of the pools. The bathroom was also of a generous size with good amenities (eg. stylish extending shaving mirror). The beds were very comfy infact it felt like a chore getting up for breakfast! We chose half-board rather than all inclusive as it's our preference to sample local cuisine at a variety of restaurants rather than remain within the same complex. Breakfast & Dinner was very well organised and had good choice. A range of fresh fish every day (personally cooked in front of you!) which to me was just heaven. The fish chef was charming and his signature sauce was fantastic. They also alternated between pork, beef, chicken & duck (I also recommend checking out the hotel's pepper steaksauce) I could go on but I'll wrap this up shortly. In a nutshell: the hotel far exceeded my expectations and so did the resort. If you're not familiar with southern Gran Canaria and like me want total relaxation complete with a picturesque town and a great hotel then you'd be wise to book yourself in at the Cordial.

We travelled to Peurto de Mogan with Thomas Cook on 27th August 2011 for one weeks holiday - we had read the reviews on TripAdvisor and the reviews were found to be spot-on - the hotel and the grounds were stunning; the staff couldn't do enough to help you and looked really good in their local costumes! The food especially at breakfast was amazing and we were lucky enough to sit out on the sun terrace near the waterfalls. There was loads of choice for everyone - we particularly loved the show-cooking and Cava for breakfast - 5-star rating for a fab holiday. The marina area at Peurto de Mogan was lovely - very friendly local shop owners - and much quieter than nearby Peurto Rico which in comparison was very busy and brash - couldn't wait to get back to our lovely hotel. All-in-all a fabulous holiday at an amazing hotel - we certainly will be going back!! Thankyou Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa and TripAdvisor. J & K, Devon

My wife and I stayed in this hotel for one week in June as part of a package holiday booked with Thomas Cook. The Mogan Playa is an excellent hotel in every respect. We were given a vey warm welcome by an English speqaking receptionist. When checked-in, we were offered a glass of fizzy wine while we waited for our bags to be taken to the room. The hotel is quite well spread out and not all of the rooms are attached to the main reception building. I beleive this adds to the charm of the hotel as it has the most beautiful gardens. The rooms are exactly as described on the hotel website and fully meet the standards of a four star + hotel. There are two resaurants on site however we stuck to the main restaurant which is buffet style. There was a very good choice and every night fresh fish was available as well a roast of some description. The hotel facilities are good with two large swimming pools and a small spa on offer. Each evening entertainment was provided in the large bar located near the main dining room. The village of Mogan is very pleasant, not busy but adequately served by well stocked bars and restaurants all offering deals for a lunch time snack. The Mogan harbour is where the local ferries arrive and there is a good choice of water sports as well as glass bottom boats and a submarine all offering trips the young and old. Overall I would highly recommend the Cordial Mogan Playa as well as the village of Mogan. Try it I don't think you will be disappointed.

I recently stayed at the Mogan Playa and what an experience it was. The buildings are well constructed and the communal areas are of an interesting design. The rooms were finished to a high standard, a couple of niggles the beds were a little on the hard side and the air conditioning is pre set with no adjustment to the temperature but once an engineer serviced it, it was fine. The facilities are good, the a la carte restaurant is well worth a visit (The warm chocolate cake was excellent!!). Meal times in the buffet restaurant can be a bit hectic but the quality & variety made up for this. The animation team were enthusiastic and evening entertainment was provided by outside acts some were better than others!. The resort itself was a little quiet but came to life on Friday for the weekly market. The marina and beachfront have a number of restaurants so you can always eat out if you wish. We also made use of the spa treatments which were very relaxing The staff were very helpful and staff were on reception 24 hours a day for any minor queries. Overall the hotel was excellent.

Hotel lleno en pleno mes de agosto. Sin embargo, el personal y el sistema de trabajo son capaces de atendernos a todos sin colas ni sensación de agobio. Las habitaciones son amplias y cómodas y todo está en muy buen estado de mantenimiento. Creo que es mejorable la variedad y calidad de la comida en el bar de la piscina y las zonas de 'arena' de ambas piscinas son más incómodas que otra cosa.

Stille, rolig, romslig, luftig, frodig, ikke barnebråk, fredlig, ferie!

Mi pareja y yo hemos pasado 3 días inolvidables en este hotel, disfrutamos y gozamos muchisimo, nos hemos encontrado totalmente arropados, agasajados, con un trato formidable por el personal de todos lo departamentos en los cuales hemos estados, empezando por recepción a nuestra llegada con un refrigerio de bienvenida y celeridad en el ceck in, llegamos a la habitación con una buena ubicacion y en perfecto estado, con un buen equipamiento. Nos encantó la cantidad de jardines y variedad que hay sobre todo el orden y la variedad de plantas que hay además curiosamente identificadas, en los buffets y bares también hemos recibido un trato muy bueno. La comida es de muy buena calidad y mucha variedad. Las piscinas están perfectas en limpieza, trasparencia de agua, hamacas, control y orden. El wellnes también hemos recibido un trato muy profesional recibiendo consejos de utilización por parte del personal, y es muy acogedor. No puedo describir nada negativo por que no lo he encontrado. La lástima ha sido de no disponer de más tiempo para poder seguir disfrutando y gozando de este hotel. Lo recomiendo a culquier persona que quiera descansar, disfrutar y evadirse del mundo por unos días. Muchas gracias a todo el personal que compone la estructura de este hotel por hacer posible estos momentos de felicidad. Atte. Carlos González

I can be a bit fussy about hotels and am easily put off by negative reviews you often find even for generally good hotels. When looking at the reviews for Cordial Mogan Playa there were no negative reviews (on the first couple of pages) and I'm very glad I chose it, thanks for all other travellers reviews! It's a modern hotel, I was surprised how large the complex was, lots of small blocks not one monstrous eye sore. It's laid out like a small village with a couple of big pools and lots of greenery. One thing about the area though is because of the cliffs either side, you get no early or late evening sunshine (it was 10am before the sun hit the main pool nearest reception, even on the beach there was no sun after 8pm). You still get a fair amount of towels on the beds without people on them though to be honest the worst culprits doing this I found actually ended up being English. Generally I found tourists were mainly German, lots of Spanish and then English. The one not as good aspect I found was the food. Breakfast was great, I didn't do lunch as I was on half board, dinner was a bit the same (and I was only there for a week) and while the grills obviously had the fresh food, the help yourself vegetables and other buffet tended to be a bit overdone and not so hot. It wasn't terrible and understandable for the amount of people that had to be fed, but it was a weaker point. Dinner wasn't well explained to me when I checked in, there are 2 sittings in the main restaurant and you need to book for either (just the once and then you're there for the rest of your stay). There is another restaurant that you don't need to book at, but this is more of an overflow, less well used with less selection. I didn't venture in Puerto Mogan except for a stroll to beach most evenings. It's a small town with a beach front and marina. If you were going to eat out (you can swap dinner for lunch if you're only half board) the marina looked a nicer location to eat than the beach front. All in all, very clean and modern, I had a lovely relaxing time and would easily recommend it and go back and stay again.

Just back from 1 weeks stay in this fantastic hotel. We were looking for a relaxing holiday & this certainly fit the bill. The cleanliness of the room was great. The staff were friendly & very accommodating. The food was to a great standard & there was more than enough choice to keep us satisfied for the week. The landscaped gardens & the attention paid to them was incredible. Mogan the resort was beautiful & felt a touch of class compared to its neighbour Peurto Rico. A thoroughly relaxing holiday!

My family and I always check Tripadvisor before booking holidays.., so without fail, it was consulted again for our first visit to Gran Canaria. May I say.., thankyou to all your ratings/comments..., again! A very nice place, and worthy of a top spot position. My wife and I (+ two kids: 18m & 4yr old), stayed here for 2 weeks. Weather was great + hotel superb. Arrived late (delayed easyjet flight).., but reception greeted us with a smile + glass of bubbly (awesome!). The reception area itself is impressive, which gives you an initial 'feel good' factor. Shown to room on 4th floor (c-block), which overlooks one of the pools. Rooms were very spacious and well equiped (air-con, extra-bed, fridge, safe, etc..) for a 2-week stay. Hotel has two main pool areas at each end of the complex. Being we were in the height of the season, it was busy..., but not busy enough that we found sourcing a location to 'bath in the sun' too much of an issue. Pool-attendants/Life-guards are on hand to assist if necessary. Facilities are up to scratch (pool, spa, tennis, gym, scuba etc.).., and with two kids there is access to a kids club. An 'Animation Team' are on hand to inform you of the daily entertainment available to guests day & night, and a couple of them (one girl in particular) deliver a rather addictive kids disco at 8.20pm every evening (something which our 4yr old loved, and still regurgitates!). Evening entertainment is 'fine'.., but for me.., the cheesy tribute acts I can quite happily leave. Staff are very friendly, and all speak good English. Food is great. We went half-board and found choice enough not to get board over our stay. There is a selection of restuarants a short walk towards into Mogan town (on the sea-front) + 2 x mini-markets where you can get your refreshments etc.. All in all.., a great place that I would fully recommend to all. Thankyou Mogan Playa for a great holiday.

We first stayed at Mogan Playa in October and it was so lovely we thought we'd go again in July. We had a suite which consisted of a lounge area, bedroom and bathroom. Our son slept in the lounge on a sofa bed which was made up twice a day and the room was also cleaned twice a day - standards were very high. The suites are situated further away from the main hotel and set in beautiful tropical gardens. Staying in the suites also means taking breakfast in the restaurant next to the pool which has a beautiful outlook. As people have said before the breakfasts are a highlight and sitting overlooking the gardens drinking a glass of bucks fizz is not to be missed! The staff are lovely - in particular the Dutch receptionist (Flora or Fleur?) was incredibly helpfull and friendly. We wondered if the hotel and resort would be busier in July but it was just right - the pools weren't particularly busy and there were plenty of sunbeds. The temperature was hot but no more than anywhere else on the med. Bus services are good - we went to Maspalomas one day by bus and took the boat on another to Arugineguin (not that much there) and Puerto Rico. Strolling around Puerto Mogan itself - through the Marina and to the lighthouse to have a coffee or drink is very relaxing and the staff in the restaurants we went to (many Italian) were very friendly.

De verdad que es una pena que no lo tengamos más cerca de casa porque sin duda repetiríamos. A diferencia de otros hoteles de canarias aquí se han adaptado tanto para los turistas extranjeros como para los españoles, de hecho, me llamó la atención (en comparación con otros hoteles de canarias) ver tanto españoles, incluso los mismos canarios, en este hotel. Imagino que se agradece poder cenar en el turno de las 21:00 y que no te echen de la piscina a las seis de la tarde. Tal como decían en otras críticas, aunque el hotel es bastante grande no se siente masificado y es que en nuestro caso no podíamos evitar la comparación con el hotel del año pasado en Tenerife Sur y es que todo lo que no nos gustaba, en este sitio lo han tenido en cuenta y lo han gestionado bien. Daba gusto bajar a la piscina y encontrar tumbona libres. Nuestro pequeñajo estaba encantado con la playa que han hecho en la piscina (aunque a los adultos nos resulte las piedritas un tanto incomodas) y el agua templada. Daba gusto ver lo bien que se lo pasaba. Primera vez que íbamos a un hotel en régimen de Pensión Completa y de verdad que en temas de comida no hemos tenido queja.... salvo que engordamos por todo lo que comíamos. El personal super amables y atentos, en especial las chicas del mediodía. En la cena al ser más gente se notaba que estaban más saturados. En fin, que nos gustó el hotel, que nos gustó Puerto Mogán y las historias de la oruga y que nos la hemos pasado muy bien. Vacaciones así dan gusto!

My husband and I have just returned from a weeks holiday at this excellent hotel. to cellebrate our wedding anniversry.When we arrived a wonderful receptionist ( Monica) greeted us. She even rang the room to see if we were happy. The room was clean with a lovely view of the pool. The only little niggle is the bed was rather hard. The air conditioning worked well and we were very happy with our room. The food was very good and varied. We picked the first sitting and had the same table all week which we liked as it took away any worry about finding a table.The resturant is self service , but the drinks waiters were very heplful

We loved this hotel from the minute we arrived for a winter sun break in March. Reception staff were excellent, the room comfortable and the grounds just beautiful. /we had breakfast in the hotel which was very good but apart from lunch around the pool we didn't sample their restaurant food...there was too much on offer at the port! We found several excellent restaurants which were reasonable (uk prices?) as well as a very good and cheap Italian. Sunbeds were always available and the pool was the perfect temperature. I will certainly return to this lovely hotel. We hired a car from the airport which we didn't use much at all....next time Ill take a taxi.

This is a great hotel, modern, but distinctive with great food and facilities. This is our third visit and each has been good. The hotel is immaculately clean and the staff friendly. We spent most of our days swimming in one of the two large pools or lounging around. The little port of Mogan is only a few hundred yards away through a secure gate. The onlyreservations we had was that it was a little quite. There is evening hotel entertainment in the hotel and some nice resturants in Mogan, bit for more life its a 20 minute drive to Purto Rico

Have just returned from the most amazing family holiday at the Cordial Morgan Playa.We have stayed in many 4 and 5 star properties all over Europe,Usa and the Caribbean and would rate the cordial amongst the very best. Check in was very smooth and you are given a nice chilled glass of champagne,we were allocated in block C on the 4th floor over looking the pool in my opinion I would prefer block A,B or C. Rooms were very spacious and we also had an additional bed in the room for our 4 year old excellent air con,ample wardrobe space,full length mirror and dressing table. Also for a 10 euro deposit you can hire as many dvds from the hotel shop great for little ones. Pool areas were all lovely and spotless and my favourite thing was not having to get up early for sunbeds the hotel runs a very strict policy on reserving beds which I think is great if you put towels down on a bed but do not return after 60 mins then towels are removed!! The best thing about this hotel is the food we stayed at the hotel when it was full to capacity and the restaurant is run to the highest standard.You are allocated your own table at the start of your holiday which I think is great so you know where you are going as a family of 5 this was excellent for us. Quality and standards of food are excellent from breakfast to evening meal. Great selection of high quality meats inc fillet steak,large selection of fish and everything else that you can think of! We were never bored eating in the restaurant and always felt that there were variation each day. Now on to the entertainment there is a childrens club that operates during the day and all entertainers are fluent in english,german and spanish to cater for all the kids.They have a childrens disco every night then provide a professional act after that.Drink is reasonably priced in the hotel bars and they offer waiter service which is very efficient.The spa was just lovely the manager of the spa is excellent we had the most amazing time and also booked 2 full body massages.I would say if you are looking for a luxury hotel with great food in a beautiful resort this is definately the hotel for you.We are actually planning our next visit this year!

We have just come back from our second holiday at this hotel. The grounds are beautiful, and as everything is spread out it makes a lovely place to stroll through in the evening to the harbour. With two pools there is plenty of space for everyone, although people do still reserve beds with towels even when asked not to by the hotel. The staff are always friendly and helpful and do everything they can to please. Special occasions are really made special here! Cleanliness is everything you could wish for, both in your room or in the public areas of the hotel or pool areas. Rooms are in differents 'blocks' - some are near the reception and top pool, whilst others are lower down in the quieter tropical garden area. I recommend you request the mattress toppers which are available as the beds can sometimes be bit hard. There is a great range of food in the buffet both at breakfast and in the evening, and the quality is very acceptable. Breakfast is excellent - a huge choice including Cava and freshly prepared smoothies to drink. At dinner, the gazpacho is so refreshing! We never use the minidisco or evening entertainment as we prefer to sit in La Fula bar and listen to the piano music with a cool drink whilst playing cards. Overall a great hotel deserving great praise and we will be back.

Can really recommend this hotel. It has 2 great pool areas, one which felt more for the quiet ones and the hotel one where all the families were. There is also a shallow kids pool, but we did not use this all week as the other pool get gradually deeper, our kids stayed in the shallow end (almost like being at the beach but with out the waves) our children are 2 and 5 and they loved it. Sunbeds get taken fast, it says no reserve but it seemed that everyone did it and by 9 all the sunbeds were taken. We went down to the pool before breakfast (around 8.30) and put our towels down, otherwise there was no chance of getting a good bed. The food is not amazing, but good enough. However we only ate lunch at the hotel (by the restaurant next to the "adult" pool) I think it was called Fula. And in the evenings we went into Puerto de Mogan, make sure you enter the harbour and don't get stuck by the beach restaurants, Can recommend Zoo Bar. Hope you enjoy the hotel as much as we did. We didn't really leave the hotel, went to the beach one day but the water was a bit dirty and beach really busy, plus to rent 2 beds and an umbrella was 9 euro. We also went to Aqualand in Maspalomas one day, to get there we rented a car from the hotel.

Je me suis essentiellement basé sur les nombreux avis positifs émis au sujet du Cordial Mogàn Playa pour y réserver notre séjour (du 20 au 30 juillet 2011) et y ai effectivement trouvé ce qui était attendu. Voici donc mon opinion (au risque de répéter ce qui a déjà été dit) : Globalement, l'hôtel est superbe: le hall de la réception donne d'emblée une idée du décor fait d'arbres, de plantes, de cascades... ; les jardins sont splendides (innombrables variétés d'arbres, de cactus, de plantes et fleurs odorantes...) et très bien entretenus (tous les jours dès 06h00, les jardiniers taillent, coupent les fleurs fanées, de sorte que tout reste propre en permanence) Les chambres sont telles que décrites : très propres, assez spacieuses, belle sdb, coffre-fort payant (20 € pour 10j, ce n'est pas la mort...) et literie effectivement un peu dure (mais bon, ça ne nous a pas empêché de bien dormir) La clim' fonctionne parfaitement (système de coupure automatique lorsqu'on ouvre la porte-fenêtre de la terrasse, pas de panique) L'hôtel se compose de "deux parties" : une près de la réception (manifestement un peu plus calme ; c'est là que nous étions) et une plus vers la plage (plus d'animation : musique, enfants, activités telles water-polo, aquagym...) Vous pouvez évidemment vous rendre où vous voulez pour nager ou bronzer. L'hôtel dispose également de "chambres de courtoisie" dont vous pourrez disposer gratuitement le jour de votre départ (ce qui nous a effectivement permis de profiter pleinement de notre dernière journée puis de prendre une douche et de nous changer avant de nous rendre à l'aéroport le soir) Il y a des transats en suffisance (avec parasols, matelas épais + serviettes) et vous pouvez arriver à n'importe quelle heure, il y a de la place. Pas besoin de se lever aux aurores et de "faire la guerre" pour une bonne place au bord de la piscine. Petit mot pour ceux qui aiment les chats : ils sont "super-sympas" et toujours en demande d'une caresse (ou d'une petite sieste avec vous sur le transat !) Sinon, ils passent leur chemin et vont piquer un roupillon dans les rocailles (leur vie à l'air très dure... :-) ) Le resto : petit-déj (de 07h30 à 10h30 – placement libre) avec tout ce que vous pouvez imaginer, y compris le "champagne" (cava) tous les jours et deux services possibles le soir (19h00 et 20h30) avec table "attribuée" le 1er soir et qui reste la même durant tout le séjour (donc pas besoin de se presser, elle est libre et vous attend) Nous avons opté pour le service de 20h30, ce qui permet de profiter au maximum de votre après-midi et de se préparer tranquillement (apéro sur votre terrasse !) Il faut vraiment être difficile pour dire que "la nourriture n'est pas terrible" : sur 40 à 50 plats proposés, il y en aura forcément toujours quelques-uns qui vous plairont et, en ce qui nous concerne, on a été confrontés à l'embarras du choix (j'ai tout de même pris 1 kg en 10j... :( ) Ce n'est évidemment pas là que l'on dégustera une "vraie" paella mais, si l'envie est là, elle est très correcte. Les vins à la carte sont de bonne qualité (j'ai "fait" tous les rosés ; dans le doute, optez pour les valeurs sûres telles que le Riojà) mais à des prix un peu excessifs par rapport au prix de vente en grande surface (ex. 3.64 € --> 18 € ; 4.75 € --> 23.50 €... bref, l'hôtel fait x5 sur le prix de la bouteille) Mais bon... Vous en achetez une à "l'Hyper Dino" en face (50 mètres), vous la buvez tranquillement à l'apéro sur votre terrasse et vous en reprenez une au resto, ce qui ramène le prix à une dizaine d'€ la bouteille :-) ! Pour vous restaurer à midi (si encore faim après le petit-déj), la plage et le port sont tout proches (à conseiller effectivement "Tapas Tapas" pour ses... tapas, "Clipper" pour les pizzas, la "Cicola" pour la meilleure sangria...) et si vous n'avez pas envie de sortir, le "snack" de la piscine propose de tout à des prix très corrects et identiques à ceux de la ville. Les spectacles proposés le soir sont globalement de (très) bonne qualité et le prix des consommations défient toute concurrence (5.50 € le Jack Daniel's - astuce : demander directement un double et on vous remplit votre verre à ras bord, vous en avez - normalement - pour la soirée !) Excursion à faire : le tour guidé de l'île (en car) Un peu "au pas de charge" mais vous voyez "tout" : cratères des volcans, "grand canyon", jardin botanique... Excursion décevante : tour en mer pour voir des dauphins... qu'on n'a jamais vus (faisaient la sieste, peut-être) On n'est pas "remboursés" mais on peut refaire le périple (2h30 avec des voyageurs qui commencent à être malades... pfffff) gratuitement un autre jour. On a laissé tomber. Si vous ne voulez vraiment pas sortir de l'hôtel (ce qui est dommage), il y a un "site archéologique"... à l'intérieur du complexe ! Un cimetière qui vaut la peine d'être vu (1/4h) Sports: le terrain de tennis est bien (10 € / heure - libre quasi en permanence - jouer avant 10h ou après 18h, sinon ça équivaut à l'Open d'Australie vu la chaleur) Le bowling est à 8 € (bof... mais va-t-on aux Canaries pour jouer au bowling ? Mon fils, oui...) Voilà, je crois avoir "fait le tour". Un très très bon et bel hôtel, certes où on parle peu le français (et alors ?) avec un personnel sympathique et serviable et une bonne cuisine. Si vous hésitez encore ou avez des questions, j'y répondrai avec le plus grand plaisir. Bien à tous

Hotel bonito, silencioso, con amplias habitaciones, un desayuno buffet espectacular, personal muy amable, limpio... ¿qué más se puede pedir? Nos alojamos allí una semana en la que nos dedicamos a bucear, tomar el sol, visitar pueblecitos de la isla y comer pescado y papas. Para recordar y para repetir cuando se pueda.

El hotel es maravilloso (tal y como ya nos habíamos informado en comentarios de anteriores visitantes). La habitación estupenda: muy espaciosa y siempre limpia, sin ruidos. El hotel en general super acogedor: jardines magníficos, las piscinas y jacuzzi estupendas (estuvimos hospedados la última semana de julio y no se encuentran saturadas) y no olvidar las tumbonas....perfectas...y la comida igual de bien...ni una queja. En resumen, es más que recomendable, nos encantó. Ya estoy deseando volver de nuevo.

We booked a junior suite for 4 nights as a family with 2 parents and a 3 year old child. The rate included half board, which was breakfast and dinner (which could also be substituted for lunch). The hotel is located in Mogan on the west side of the island, in a canyon of stone. Getting to the hotel from the airport is a bit of a chore. Unless you are on a tour which includes transfers, the primary options are bus or taxi. Given our small child and our luggage quantity, we opted for the taxi, which cost about 70 Euros and took about 50 minutes. The bus would have been significantly cheaper but much longer. Our room (#9023) consisted of a bedroom with two twin beds (put together to make a large bed, but with separate sheets), a large bathroom with separate shower and bath tub, a large closet, and a living room with a desk, TV, and pull out sofa for our child. We also had a large porch with lounge chairs and a grassy back yard, with a view of the canyon. Everything was quite clean and in good condition. There is more than enough space to feel quite comfortable in the room. The closet has a safe, although you have to pay extra at the front desk to use it (approx 10 Euros for 4 nights). The room has an empty refrigerator for our use. There is a mini bar service which can be ordered (minimum 6 items), or you can stock up at the grocery store just outside the hotel gate. We were also told that pool towels were ‘included in our rate’ and we found 3 awaiting us in the bathroom, along with 2 robes. (Presumably this means that others might have to pay a fee?) There were toiletries in the bathroom, and the tub/shower both had a shampoo/bath gel dispenser in the wall, as opposed to small disposable bottles, a more environmentally friendly approach. The room had 2 thermostats, so the temperature in the living room could be controlled separately from the bedroom. The hotel complex is quite large. The landscaping is amazing, with many interesting and unusual trees and flowers, and even a large cactus garden. We saw bananas, coconuts, oranges, lemons, and a multitude of different types of flowers. There are two nearly identical swimming pools serving each side of the hotel complex. Both have a child-friendly gradual entrance and then a deeper end on the opposite side of side of the overpass bridge. Children are provided with inflatable beach balls upon check in, which can be used in the pool. We saw lifeguards on duty during the day. The staff also organized some brief events during the day – water aerobics, water polo, etc. The pool nearest the lobby had poolside service for food and drinks. The other pool seemed not to encourage eating/drinking, but rather there is a bar/restaurant next to the pool where guests went for their needs. There is also a large spa, which we did not try, and a gym. We found the hotel to be very family-friendly, and in fact, nearly all guests appeared to be part of a family. A children’s activity center is open for a few hours of arts and crafts each day. There is a small play area, but as it’s next to the pool, it didn’t seem to get much use. The center also has a bowling alley, pool and ping pong tables, and a nature center where signs explain the local terrain. The staff is very friendly and multi-lingual, with Spanish, English, German, and Italian being most common. Everyone was very accommodating to our son’s needs. Breakfast is served buffet-style in 2 restaurants at each end of the campus. We found the quality to be very good, with many staples and some rotation. Staples included multiple kinds of cereal and yogurt, pancakes, eggs (scrambled or fried), cheeses, pastries and bread, bacon, and many kinds of fruit juice. Coffee is delicious, and there is also an espresso/latte/cappuccino maker. Rotational items included waffles, churros, and various kinds of fruit. Breakfast had a relaxed atmosphere, with self-seating and many open tables. For guests with full or half board, dinner is served in the main restaurant below the lobby. There are 2 seatings (6pm and 8:30pm), and you are assigned the same table for the duration of your stay. We found the quality of food at dinner to be better than expected. The variety is also quite good, with freshly grilled meats and fish (our favorite) while you wait, a carvery, salads, breads, appetizers, pasta, cheeses and fruit, and an ample dessert bar. On the down side, there is quite a rush when the doors open, and some food can disappear quite quickly. While most of it was re-stocked by the staff, some items disappeared permanently. All drinks cost extra, from water to sodas to alcohol. However, the pricing was reasonable so this wasn’t a huge concern. Apple juice was approx 2.60 Euros, beer started at 2.50 Euros, and wine in the +/- 20 Euro range for a bottle. The hotel has a more upscale restaurant, which you can reserve and get a 15 Euro credit per adult, in lieu of the buffet for an evening. We did not try, as our 3 year old was better off with the buffet. The hotel is very close to a small shopping center and grocery, so supplies can be bought if you need or forget anything. Wireless internet is available only in certain areas of the complex (it did not reach our room, although we could use it in the lobby area). There seemed to be many off campus activities, including dolphin sighting and horseback riding (for a fee), as well as hiking on the cliffs, although we did not try as we were there primarily for the swimming. We walked down to the beach one morning, an easy stroll of a few blocks from the closest point on the hotel complex. The beach is relatively clean and had many families, both locals and visitors. There is a roped-off area for swimming, separate from the boats. Paddle boats with small slides were available to rent, and also for rent were beach chairs and umbrellas. The water was quite cool in temperature. We saw many small fish swimming in the water, which entertained our son. He could stand for the first 10 feet or so, and then the bottom dropped rapidly down in depth. The hotel was very gracious about letting us stay past checkout and swim on the last day. We did have to vacate our room at noon, but we could keep our towels and use a special shower room later in the day. The front desk stored our luggage. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this hotel for people looking for a quiet(er) family vacation. Cordial Mogan Playa is definitely a four star plus hotel – not quite 5 star, but very, very good.

Cordial Mogan Playa is een fantastisch hotel in een prachtige omgeving. Niet zozeer te danken aan de omgeving van het eiland zelf maar aan het hotel. Het hele resort is namelijk een kleine oase in een verder 'kaal' landschap. Wat niet wil zeggen dat het hotel niet mooi gelegen is. Het ligt tussen twee bergen (nou ja bergjes) waardoor de illusie in een oase te zijn beland nog versterkt wordt. Het resort staat vol met palmen, planten en bloemen waar duidelijk veel zorg aan besteed wordt. Er zijn twee flinke zwembaden. Niet heel groot maar voldoende om alle gasten een verkoelende duik te geven zonder dat het zwembad overbevolkt raakt. Langs het zwembad veel schaduwrijke plekken door de vele gigantische planten en palmbomen. Maar genoeg plekken met zon voor de zonaanbidders. Bedden met comfortabele kussens en parasols. Er zijn strandjes gemaakt van fijne kiezelstenen. Beter dan zand maar niet echt comfortabel. Benadrukt wel weer het karakter van het hele resort. Eten is één woord fantastisch. Halfpension zeker aan te bevelen. De keuken blinkt echt uit. Verwacht geen superdeluxe diners met veel opsmuk. Wel fantastische gerechten met heel veel afwisseling. De grill is heerlijk (als je van vlees houdt). Vele salades, verse vis en leuke kleine gerechtjes. Absoluut voor ieder wat wils. Volpension raad ik niet aan: 's middags hadden we nog weinig trek en het ontbijt is uitgebreid. Een klein broodje volstaat. Er is een prima supermarkt om de hoek (Superdino). Verkoopt heerlijke verse spullen. We kochten daar ook ons frisdrank voor bij het zwembad. Kamer heeft een redelijk ruime koelkast die niet is gevuld door de minibar (tenzij je daar specifiek om vraagt). Koop dus een paar flessen water en blikjes en je bent voorzien. De prijzen in het hotel zijn overigens schappelijk. €2,10 voor een fles water of frisdrank, €2,50 voor een flesje bier en €3,50 voor een grote tapbier (0,4l) bij het zwembad (goed koud!). Ontbijt dus prima: verse omelets, champagne en kaviaar (geen idee of het echte kaviaar is, ben zelf geen liefhebber), verse jus en veel brood, beleg en yoghurt. Personeel is zeer vriendelijk, met name de receptie. Doen echt hun best voor je. We kregen op de eerste dag een picknick pakket mee naar de kamer omdat we laat arriveerden en dus het diner misten. Zo hadden we toch nog iets te eten zonder direct roomservice moesten bestellen. Daarnaast mochten we op een dag naar keuze lunchen omdat we het diner gemist hadden. Hotel is daar zeer flexibel in. Ook als je een keer in het dorp wil eten kan je je diner omwisselen voor een lunch voucher als je daar bij de receptie om vraagt. Animatie is aanwezig maar niet zeer hinderlijk. Elke dag (behalve maandag) worden wat activiteiten georganiseerd. Niets hoogstaand maar kinderen vermaken zich wel. Kamer zijn van alle gemalen voorzien, redelijk luxe en vrij ruim (we konden zelf voor een relatief klein bedrag een junior suite boeken). Bedden zijn ok. Beetje hard voor sommigen misschien. Er is een gratis zachte topping aan te vragen bij de receptie. Bij het zwembad en de receptie is gratis wifi. Geen moeilijke codes, gewoon wifi aanzetten en je bent op internet met een redelijk snelle verbinding. Dit verslag tik ik vanuit een ligbedje aan het zwembad. Dorpje is aardig. Niet meer dan dat. Door het prima eten in het hotel niet overwogen om buiten de deur te gaan eten. Dorpje heeft een haventje, wat terrasjes met de gebruikelijk verveelde obers. Opvallend vonden wij dat veel winkels en restaurantjes gesloten waren. Mogelijk ten gevolge van de economische crisis. Het was immers hoogseizoen. Een tophotel voor de Canarische eilanden en een echte aanrader.

We wanted somewhere to chill out for a couple of weeks and this fitted the bill, something of an oasis in Puerto de Mogan. Very spacious, modern and comfortable hotel with good facilities (although no room service). A lot of effort has gone into planting the open areas with cacti, palms, flowers, etc. to great effect. Good location, 5 minute stroll to the town and marina and beach, which has a wide choice of restaurants and shops. Best restaurant by far was Clipper, fantastic place. Rooms were of a reasonable size and comfortable. A couple of times our rooms hadn't been serviced by early afternoon and had to chase this up but this was a minor issue. Excellent choice of meals in the main restaurant for breakfast and dinner to suit all tastes. Service was friendly and efficient. We went half-board which was perfect for us as we could swap between lunch and dinner depending on whether we ate at the nearby marina or the hotel. When you first eat there, it seems you get allocated the same table for the rest of your stay although we did keep changing. We preferred eating outside and if this is your preference then you'd best state this at the beginning. Evening entertainment was generally good and varied. At busy times you would want to get in there about 9:30 for a good seat. Good spa area which provided a nice place to cool down for a few hours and get a massage. Two pools...we preferred the one nearer reception as it was quieter (the other one has occasional activities). Both provide food and drinks. Waving like a madman at a waiter to attract poolside service is no longer necessary as they've just installed a silent alert system...press a button on your menu and they hone in on you. Staff at the dive centre were friendly and helpful. The dive sites were not the best I've been to but were okay. If we returned to Puerto de Mogan, would definitely stay here again

Stayed at the Cordial Mogan Playa in June/July 2011. First impressions excellent - glass of cava on arrival, superb staff and gorgeous entrance area. Complex is vast and low rise, with plenty of lifts to make getting about easy. Two huge pool areas with no difficulty getting sun loungers at any time of the day which was heaven ! The area with the pool bar is particularly nice. There is a small gym which we used most days (free) and a wellness centre which we didn't try. Upstairs from the reception is a lovely wee area to access internet and there is a book exchange. The rooms were fairly standard, but spotless and had good air conditioning. The room safe was also free to use which was a nice bonus. Staff throughout the hotel were excellent without exception. The food was outstanding - superb range of dishes to choose from. First class. Entertainment was reasonable but we spent most of the time by the pool bar enjoying the evening sunshine. Mogan itself is very nice but not too touristy (except on Market Day) and there is not much to do in Mogan itself, however we hardly had to leave the hotel at all. HyperDino across the road and down the stairs was great for the basics, sun cream, water etc. Avoid the shops in the shopping centre - very overpriced. Also Spar 5 minutes walk away. If you can afford it, book a taxi from the airport as coach takes 2.5 hours which is not great, but well worth it when you get there ! All in all a superb holiday in a superb location. I hope to be back.

We had read the reviews on tripadvisor before booking and were amazed to find that the hotel was better than we expected and we had read quite a few glowing reviews! From check-in to check out the staff were friendly and professional. The cava at check-in the care and courtesy taking you to your rooms set the mood for a lovely relaxing break. Our room viewed over the cactus gardens and the spa and was peaceful, clean and well appointed with good air conditioning and maid service. The pools were very well maintained and provided your own choice of sunbed spot despite being busy it was enjoyable for couple and families alike. The food was of very good quality and although an ambiance is difficult to create for mass evening dining, the food was really lovely - super fresh fish and local produce and a range to suit all tastes. We particularly appreciated the chance to swap our dinner for buffet lunch allowing us the chance to enjoy the restaurants in the harbour area. Lunch in the blue house was relaxed on the terrace and a nice break from the pool. The evening entertainment was mainly tribute bands. All did a good job, but perhaps a little more variety would be nice to see. The magician was comical as you couldn't see him.... no lights! This is the only area we could make any kind of suggestion for improvement! The spa was also a very welcome treat. Inexpensive to spend a couple of hours relaxing in total peace enjoying the pool, jacuzzi, sauna and steam room. The staff were very helpful and pleasant too. I have a bit of a stress neck/back thing and the 2 massages were very therapeutic and relaxing. The harbour and little town are pleasant, but if you are looking for amazing beaches for snorkeling and swimming - you have chosen the wrong island. We did use the hotel scuba facility and this was professional and worthwhile, with some interesting diving available for those who are fully licensed. I can't fail to comment on the wonderful gardens. They created an oasis in the rather rocky and arid landscape. It was a very relaxing spot which we wouldn't hesitate to recommend for couples and families. Thank you to the hotel and staff for a memorable holiday. This hotel will be tough to beat!

From the minute we walked in to this hotel we were made to feel welcome and offered a glass of champagne. It really does have the "wow" factor as soon as you enter. We had a top floor room block 3 overlooking one of the large pools. Although this is a large hotel and was almost full being July it never felt over crowded and there was always plenty of sunbeds. Good choice of food both at breakfast and evening dinner. Genereal managers cocktail party and restaurant managers farewell handshake and chat on our last night also made it feel personal to us. Although we went as two couples I would have no problem in recommending this hotel for families. Only five minute walk to lovely beach when you go through gate at back of hotel. Evening entertainment was fine and the "Beatles" look alike group where excellent. The children also enjoyed their own dance slot with the animation team. Mogan has a lovely harbour and beach. It was festival time when we were there so wonderful firework display at midnight on the sea front. This hotel was recommended to us and we recommend it to others.

Have just stayed at the Mogan Playa and am delighted with what we experienced. This hotel is palatial and is enormous! The rooms are spacious and comfortable (beds a little hard, however) and are cleaned spotlessly every day. The grounds of the hotel are fabulous with what seems miles of footpaths meandering around tropical plants, rock pools and ornate court yards. The staff are pleasant and extremely attentive and will go out of their way to assist. The food is wonderful and you can pick where you want to sit for the evening meal. If you can choose the outside veranda as it's buy a mini lake and waterfall; extremely picturesque. My only criticism is that hotel lacks 'atmosphere'. The bars and 'disco-bar' were pretty much empty and the entertainment was so-so. I could never understand why disco-bar, which is the main entertainment venue is downstairs and indoors. It's dark and the air-con means you are missing out on the gorgeous evening weather. This hotel needs to re-think their entertainment and do some stuff outside in the warm. All in all a very nice hotel.

Stayed at end of June for a week in Cordial Mogan Playa on half board. Spacious, clean room well serviced with 1st class air conditioning which is very important in Gran Canaria. Huge, exotic grounds which are well maintained and a joy to walk round. It was our first time in Gran Canaria and picking Puerto Mogan meant we had the best of the island on our doorstep. Extremely cute village and marina just a few minutes walk from hotel. Lots of choice there for drinks and food if you want a change from the hotel. We were on half board and thought the breakfasts were particularly good. The coffee is lovely and excellent range of hot and cold food, beautiful mini pastries and fresh fruit. On our last night we went to the a la carte Restaurant (Los Guayres) and it was superb. Excellent service and wonderful food. It was the perfect way to finish off our relaxing week. My husband used the spa a couple of times for massages as he has a bad back and he was impressed with the expertise of the staff. Definitely was the ideal relaxing, chillout holiday thanks to such a well run establishment and helpful, friendly staff. Absolutely deserves a repeat visit.

We chose this hotel based on the travel republic review and trip advisor comments, we are so glad we had the confidence to take our baby girl, 7 months at the time on holiday. The hotel was simply amazing. Never been one for large hotels however the management team maintained the service. The hotel sits well in the 4+ category and will continue to receive excellent praise aslong as it stays in this category. The position of the hotel is good, in a quaint fishing village away from the undisirable that flock to the spainish island year on year and take up residence in the livelier resorts, We would recommend this resort for young families and mature couples. We where concerned about travelling with our daughter and what baby goods we could buy in resort. The hotel faces a quiet collection of shops and there is a hyper Dino supermarket, as well. To assist all those planners who want to have a relaxing home with there young babies, I took pictures of baby products for sale in the hyper dino. I will post these soon. I am meticulous when it comes to planning such a trip and can reassure all young parents that there are plenty of products there. There was also a spar in Puerto mogan and a chemist which both stocked baby products. The resort had a few bars and a few restaurants a large harbour, a horrible majority tat market decended on Mogan every friday turning a quiet resort in to something else. There is a submarine if you fancy a trip to davey Jones locker, boat trips to see dolphins that don't necessarily want to see you, expensive trip to see nothing in some quite choppy water, a free trip back if you don't see them....urgh no thanks. I digress.... Hotel breakfast was amazing everything you could think of plus a beautiful setting especially in the conserventory besides yet another waterfall, not forgetting the sparkling wine... Lunch we only had one day and was adequate. Dinner again lots of variety even for a vegetarian like myself. For fish lovers every day there was 4-6 different types of fish to chose from, freshly cooked in front of you. Hotel entertainment has previoulsy been slated however we found the ents team to be doing a good job. Hotel staff v.friend and accommodating, easy to get around with a push chair, we requested a ground floor room with afternoon sun and got it. I requested chocolates and flowers as my wife and I where celebrating our 2nd wedding anniversary. The hotel was more than willing to assist me. Pools were great and graded like the sea, so you can gently walk in. Spa facilitates were very good as well as the treatments on offer. Two of the nicest things was the constant sound of running water from the waterfalls and the song birds gracing us with there tunes each day. Our only gripe would be the cost of the cocktails and drinks of an evening. If memory serves me correctly £6-8 for a poorly constructed cocktail is not good. £4.5 for a large beer... I"m sure I could go on with this review so all in all a great holiday, probably one of the most relaxing, would we go back, definitely, would we recommend family and friends...we already have!

We stayed here for 10 days this month. The staff are very friendly & helpful. We had a few very minor problems, e.g. faulty phone & balcony lock not closing, but these were dealt with immediately when we reported them. The food was excellent & there was a great variety to choose from. The hotel is surrounded by beautiful tropical gardens, but they use an environmentally friendly method of keeping pests at bay. I didn't see any insects there. There are 2 lovely big swimming pools, each with it's own Jacuzzis. I loved this as I cannot swim, but made great use of the Jacuzzis. The main reception is lovely & very unusual. Plenty of lovely places for photos. There was entertainment in the hotel 6 nights a week, but overall Mogan is a fairly quiet place. I had a back massage in the Spa, & found it very good.

We had a very relaxing and enjoyable holiday at the Mogan Playa. The staff were brilliant, everyone, management, waiters, cleaners and gardeners always had a cheery "Hola, Buenas Dias" when they saw you, and nothing was too much effort to help make the holiday a go well. This made the atmosphere more welcoming than I have experienced at any other hotel abroad. Manager held a Cocktail party to meet and greet and the managers of different areas of the hotel stayed to chat, giving plenty of opportunity to give feedback to them. There was a real wiilingness on their part to get it right. Location of Puerto Mogan is very quiet but that is why we chose it. The hotel is superb, The gardens are a delight and walking round the hotel gounds reveals something new to see evey time. No corner is neglected. The garden team deserve a big congratulations. the hotel itself is also ecxellently maintained and interesting. The design is wonderful. I don't know if it is the way the buildings are set out or the planting of the gardens but pool noise does not travel and there is a relaxing air of peace and quiet throughout. Reception staff were very helpful right from the word go with a glass of bubbly as we checked in and a picnic as we were late arrivals. They also were very helpful when one of our booked tours let us down. They organised for them to come back for us! The evening entertainment won't be to everyones taste but the acts were very professional. Bar staff work really hard when shows are on to get drinks out and still a joke and a smile. The Spa staff too are welcoming and cheery, explaining how to get the best from the Spa. I can't fault this hotel and thinking of our holiday there gives me a warm glow and a smile even now in the rain in Scotland!! We will be back

Wir verbrachten zu zweit sechs Tage in dieser äusserst geschmackvoll gestalteten Anlage. Wir waren rundum zufrieden. Schon der Empfang im Hotel war sehr professionell und freundlich, das Zimmer geräumig und sehr stilvoll eingerichtet. Wir hatten Halbpension gebucht und uns für Abendessen entschieden. Es gab ein abwechslungsreiches Büffet mit lokalen Gerichten sowie internationaler Küche, alles sehr appetitlich und lecker. Abends wurde im Hotel ein wechselndes Programm geboten, man konnte aber auch problemlos zu Fuß in wenigen Minuten die Bars und Restaurant in Mogan erreichen. Der Strand von Mogan ist eher unattraktiv, so dass wir ausschließlich den Poolbereich unseres Hotels genutzt haben. Wir haben uns in dem herrlichen, sehr gepflegten tropischen Garten sehr wohl gefühlt und den echten Strand keine Minute vermisst. Das Hotel besteht aus mehrere Gebäudekomplexen mit normalen Zimmern und darüber hinaus existiert ein Bereich mit einzelnen Bungalows.

We went to Cordial having never been in the Canaries before, for my brother's wedding. He and his wife married in the onsite chapel - a beautiful and charming location. The facilities and rooms etc in this hotel are second to none. The two pools are fabulous and were not overcrowded in June. This hotel hits all the marks for customer service, friendliness, efficiency and excellent facilities. Good maintenance and thoughtful design make this a place we will return to again and again. The little port is just a few minutes walk away (beware the heat!) and features a small beach, a fishing port and a marina. The houses around the marina have been crafted into a real 'Little Venice' with attractive flower displays and quaint Canarian designed homes. A real gem!

Had a fantantic honeymoon staying here. The staff were very friendly (especially Monica - thank you!) and arranged some nice surprises for my wife, in addition to upgrading our room. Found the hotel impressive and it was a very relaxing holiday spent mainly by the pool, on the beach and wondering around the beautiful village of puerto mogan.

Es un hotel encantador, sus jardines son muy bonitos y está muy bien cuidados, el personal muy amable. Todo en si me gustó mucho, la comida fantástica. Me parece que está en un enclave privilegiado, se puede ir paseando desde el hotel, hasta la playa de Mogan, una pequeña playa muy tranquila y acogedora, por la noche es un paseito muy romántico. Es la segunda vez que me alojo en este hotel y volveré a repetir, sin duda!!

My husband and I just spent at week at this hotel. We went on a full board basis and were delighted to learn on arrival that this included house wine beer and soft drinks with meals. Breakfast lunch and dinner are buffetts but there is great selection and the food is excellent. There is an a la carte restaurant option and a credit is given if you choose to eat there. When we return we will choose half board so we can try some of the many restaurants in Puerto Mogan which is a short walk away and great for people watching. Beds in our room were quite hard but the hotel supplied comforters which helped, rooms have DVD players so bring a few with you. Fantastic staff very helpful.

For those who just want to relax in beautiful surroundings, this is the hotel to choose. From arrival the staff couldn't be more attentive or helpful. Rooms more than adequate Food is excellent and varied. If there is one slight flaw it is the dinnner timings 6.00-7.30 and 8.30-10.00, so for those who would like to eat from 7-8 its not an option, but this is minor. There is no hoarding of sunbeds, and plenty of room for clients at both excellent pools. This review is short because its only to recommend this hotel for anyone who wants a relaxing holiday in a very good hotel.

We stayed here at the begining of July intending to soak up the sun and just relax and found we couldn't have picked a better place. We arrived late at night to be greeted with a lovley cool drink and sandwich box. Our room was lovely and clean, the only problem was the very hard beds which have been mentioned before. We asked for a mattress topper on our first day so that was soon resolved. The staff were all lovely and always saying 'hola' to everyone. The food was fab, don't see how anyone could fault it. For our firtst night we were given a table in the dining room for us to use all week, the only problem was iot was in a very busy spot so we asked to change it which was done with a smile and no problem. Cocktails were good and entertainment was sometimes good, sometimes funny without hthat always been the intention! Had a few meals in Puerto Mogan which were good, its a very short walk into town, didn't try the hotel a la carte as the meals in the dining room were so good. Pools were lovely and clean, always got sun loungers, we sat by the quiet pool in the day and then in late afternoon would go and swim in the main pool as it is heated, lovely. All in all the hotel was one of the best we've stayed in and can recommend it without a qualm!

Our experience in this hotel is that it is idyllic for us.The gardens are spectacular and it is tranquil and calming, perfect for couples.The rooms and grounds are spotless. All the staff are friendly and very helpful. We arrived in the middle of the night and were greeted with drinks and a porter to take our bags to our room. The dining room is well organised with a huge choice of food to suit every taste and every nationality. The quality of the food is excellent. The resort is quite small and very attractive with plenty of shops, restaurants, cafes, a beach and a marina. There are boat trips to neighbouring resorts, and buses connecting you to the rest of the island. This holiday is most definitely a five star experience.. .

Nos hemos quedado del 4 al 11 de julio de 2011. Y hemos estado genial. Ibamos con un niño de 3 años y medio y se lo pasó en grande. Es un hotel muy limpio y con una plantilla muy servicial y amable. Te saludan en todo momento y son encantadores. Tratan de solucionar cualquier problema o duda que puedas tener. Nosotros llegamos a la 1 de la mañana y nos tenían preparado un picnic que estaba muy bien ya que habíamos perdido la cena. El último día, como nos ibámos a las 2 de la tarde, nos dieron una invitación para comer por el mediodía ya que habíamos perdido la cena del primer día. Es decir, que tienen unos detalles estupendos. Por otra parte pudimos dejar la habitación a las 2 del mediodía por lo que pudimos disfrutar de la piscina por la mañana sin ningún problema. Una cosa que nos sorprendió y que nos gustó mucho fue que en la televisión durante todo el día ponen unos dibujos de la oruga Carlos, que vive en Mogán. Están muy bien hechos y siempre vienen con moraleja final. A nuestro niño le encantaban. Así que por las noches, a las 8 de la tarde, acudía feliz a la disco para peques donde bailaban e interpretaban canciones EN todos los idiomas y ademas... ¡ VENÍA LA ORUGA CARLOS A VERLOS Y A HACERSE FOTOS CON ELLOS! Una cosa que nos encantó es que nunca parecía que estaba a tope aun a pesar de que nos dijeron que estaba al 80%. En la piscina, las hamacas tienen una colchoneta muy mullidita por lo que estás muy a gusto. Además si quieres otra sombrilla puedes preguntar al socorrista que te la trae de inmediato. En fin, un hotel tranquilo, muy bonito, con todo tipo de facilidades. Repetiríamos sin dudarlo.

This was our second visit to Cordial Mogan Playa and we celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary and my husband's birthday on our weeks stay mid June. We cannot fault the hotel at all, we had an amazing time, the hotel was very clean and our room was clean and very spacious. There was lots of food choices and we enjoyed every meal here. We only went to the main pool, which is beautiful and decorated very nicely, the pool restaurant also does fantastic food. I just want to mention that the hotel realised it was my husband's birthday and surprised us on our last day by bringing up a birthday cake to our room to enjoy which was very kind and tasted delicious! We were also greeted with a bottle of champagne at our evening mea and our table was beatutifully laid out which really made our last day very special and the waiters and waitresses were very helpful and polite during our entire stay. As stated above we can't fault this hotel at all and had a great time, we will definately be returning here!! They really do go that extra mile to make your stay perfect. Also, thank you Cordial Mogan Playa for such a lovely surprise for my husband's birthday, it really was the perfect end to a fantastic holiday!

Just returned from a 1 week trip to this hotel and I cannot praise it enough! The hotel, restaurants, rooms and pool areas are spotlessly clean, the staff are extremely welcoming and polite. We arrived in the early hours of the morning and were given a food box as we had missed dinner. This contained fruit juice, sandwiches, croissants, pastries and fresh fruit which was very much appreciated. We were booked in as half board but you can swap dinner with lunch if you want to. The buffet restaurants offer a good selection of food, the only thing I would have liked was free water at dinner. The alcoholic drinks are extremely generous. We didnt get to use the spa on site but heard it was good value for money. we ate at the a la carte restuarant, Los Guayres, where the food was fabulous (even better, I got proposed to!). If your flight home is late, there are courtesy rooms free of charge with beds, showers and towels. The only thing we wished we had done differently was to book 2 weeks instead of 1.

My husband and I stayed at the Cordial Mogan Playa for 14 nights mid June 2011. We had visited Gran Canaria around 10 years ago and vowed never to return (Peurto Rico) however we did remember the ferry trip we took to Mogan at that time and decided to give it another go. We were not disappointed! The hotel is beautiful, the grounds stunning and the staff just so helpfull. Peurto Mogan itself is just beautiful - not cheap by any means but nowhere in Spain is cheap now! We visited the capital Las Palmas - well worth a visit - a lovely city - and that is cheap compared to Mogan. We took the local bus (number 1) to Cura and then got the 91 to Las Palmas. Great place to visit. Another gem is the less touristy spot Aguineguin. Get the ferry from the port in Mogan - only drawback is the last ferry back to Mogan from Arguineguin is around 3.40 p.m. - we could have spent much longer there. Fascinating place and typical old Spain, lovely restaurant and great local fish! Back to the hotel. If you do not like buffet do not go to a buffet style hotel, simple! The food, we thought, was good - loads of variety and fresh. I would agree with one of the reviews re: try and get a table in the conservatory, that is really nice. We stayed in room 7318 had a lovely terrace with 2 x sunbeds, table and chairs however, we spent most of the day at the pool which is so clean and refreshing. Sunbeds galore there and so comfortable. Try the winetasting event - that was good! I do not think you will be disappointed with the Cordial Mogan Playa - reception area is stunning, the grounds not to be missed, the port is just so lovely. If you are looking for nightlife you will be disappointed. Mogan is quiet - that is why we liked it - compared to Peurto Rico? Night and day!!! We visited Anfi (the 'timeshare' resort). Beautiful location and accommodation but we could not wait to get back to Cordial Mogan Playa. Will we go back to Cordial Mogan Playa? Yes we will - it has really changed our view on Gran Canaria.

This was our third holiday in Puerto Mogan; and our second stay at the Cordial Mogan Playa. (Our first holiday was to the Cordial Mogan Valle, their apartments next door.) Each one has been idyllic. The resort itself is quiet and picture postcard pretty, and only a five minute walk from the hotel; but we've spent the main part of almost every day relaxing around the gorgeous pools and enjoying the beautiful, immaculately kept gardens. This really is a wonderful place for chilling out. Each year we've travelled with our teenage son and have had interconnecting rooms. I think they're available at the end of each floor and the layout has allowed us to be together but with our own space too. The rooms are all immaculately clean, though I must say that last year I found our beds rather hard, and any problems are quickly sorted out by the courteous and friendly staff. Each room has its own small fridge which is brilliant as there's an excellent little supermarket opposite the hotel for extra supplies. Overall the food in the restaurant is of a good quality, usually with plenty of choice for all tastes. Lots of show cooking both at breakfast and dinner ensures that the food is lovely and fresh, so my only real complaint about the meals would be the two-sittings arrangement; as the first sitting is rather early for us (6-7.30) and the second is rather late (8.30-9.30); and the lack of outdoor eating space. There is though a lovely conservatory part of the restaurant, so try and get allocated a table in there if you can. Without doubt the best things about the Cordial Mogan Playa are the pool, the gardens and the amazing, romantic, a la carte restaurant. We ate there for the first time last year. The food is typical Canarian, so we weren't too sure what we thought when we looked at the menu, but the service, food and surroundings were amazing and we had a wonderful time. Things that we think could be improved? Not a lot really. The animation team last year were really, really poor. It's a quiet, mainly adult hotel I know; but I've seen more enthusiasm and animation in a retirement home than there was at the hotel last year. The year before, the animation team led by Bass and Sinny was brilliant. Unobtrusive, but lots of fun when you chose to join in. We've never bothered much with the evening entertainment as it's not really our sort of thing and it's in the main indoor bar area so you miss out on the amazing sunsets. So, if you're thinking of going to this lovely hotel, do. It's beautifully clean, amazingly pretty, peaceful, has lovely food, courteous staff, and you probably won't ever want to leave.

We stayed here for a week and the hotel and gardens are lovely. Tired a little of the buffet type meals and although the beach is lovey it is small and was packed at the weekend with local people. All in all it was a lovely week, weather was perfect and it was very relaxing. Rooms can be noisy if cleaning staff start early and drag the furniture around. The only really bad thing about the holiday were the flights out and back, after a 4.30am start we reached the hotel at 2pm!!!! The flight back was horrendous, late leaving, full of very unhappy children. Also no one talks about the hairy journey by coach from the airport to the hotel!!!!!

My wife and I have just returned from a fortnight staying at the Cordial Mogan Playa Hotel, Gran Canaria. I can only echo the excellent comments made by others. From the outset, the Management and staff make you feel so welcome. In particular, I have to praise Christian, the Customer Relations Manager, who went out of his way to ensure we had such a fantastic time at this hotel. He clearly takes a very great interest in how customers are treated and is a great credit to the Hotel. You gain the impression that all members of staff are one big happy family working efficiently to keep the hotel in a class of its own. The Reception area and areas around it have the most impressive plants and waterfalls. The cleanliness of the rooms and all areas of the hotel is exceptional. We took an organised tour of the hotel (2.5 hours) where you are shown the entire working areas, including kitchens. Indeed, such a tour only goes to prove just how fastidious they are about hygiene and cleanliness - a tour I suspect not many hotels would welcome. The food variety and quality was so very good. Difficult not to put weight on - even when visiting the gym on site. The gardens, as so many people have said, have to be seen to be believed. They are superb. Free Wifi in the Reception area. The evening shows were also good with a number of tribute acts. We had such a very enjoyable and relaxing time at this wonderful hotel we certainly hope to return.

Hotel fantastico, molto simile al paradiso in terra, ottima attenzione al cliente , posizione molto vicina alla spiagia di Mogan (molto bella ed indicata ai bimbi piccoli). Le camere sono molto comfortevole e bastante spaziose. Ristorante Ottimo, c'è di tutto per carnivori, pescivori e vegetariani (Attenzione!!!! c'è un cameriere arabo per niente cordial che vi puo rovinare la cena portandovi da bere a fine pasto, parla troppo con i clienti e ci prova spesso con le ragazze, basta tenerlo alla larga). La qualità del cibo e buonissima. Pulizia delle camere molto buona e molto veloce . La piscina ha l'acqua riscaldata ed e molto pulita, fate qualche giro a playa Amadores o Puerto Rico e non ve ne pentirete.

En el momento de reservar mis vacaciones y mirar hoteles en Gran Canaria, dudábamos entre Baobab, Villa del Conde y este, el cordial Mogán Playa. Finalmente nos decantamos por este y nos quedamos con la duda de si habríamos acertado. La duda nos duró 30 segundos. Nada más entrar en su increible recepción nos dimos cuenta de que estábamos en un gran hotel, y en efecto así fue, el resto de sus instalaciones no desmerecen para nada a la recepción. En el momento de realizar el chek-in, muy amablemente nos ofrecieron zumo o agua fresquita y nos comentaron si podían hacer algo por nosotros, lo que necesitasemos. Después, el servicio de botones nos hizo de guía, explicándonos dónde se encontraban los comedores, piscinas, cual era nuestro edificio, los horarios etc. Esto suena un poco fuerte, pero es cierto, el primer día necesitas un guía para no perderte por sus instalaciones, si bien es cierto que en poco tiempo ya te orientas perfectamente. Una vez llegamos a la habitación, descubrimos que son habitaciones amplias y espaciosas, con dos armarios suficientemente grandes como para meter 3 o 4 personas dentro. Todo correcto y como esperábamos. El baño también es amplio con el retrete separado del resto. La limpieza es de primera. Siguiendo con las instalaciones, comentar que las pisicinas son una maravilla, la temperatura es muy agradable durante todo el día y están muy limpias. Algo que merece la pena ver es el efecto arena tan logrado que consiguen...En las piscinas dispones además de 3 jacuzzis, dos en la piscina de la parte baja del hotel y uno en la piscina que se encuentra más cerca de la entrada. Las tumbonas son las tipicas de plástico de cualquier hotel, la diferencia es que además, aquí disponen de unas colchonetas muy cómodas en las que por experiencia lo digo, te puedes quedar dormido perfectamente. En cuanto a la localización en la piscina para tomar el sol agusto, no creo que haya ningún problema, en seguida verás que hay múltiples zonas, unas con hierba artificial, otra con una especia de arena, otras sobre baldosa, entre árboles, escondidas, a pie de piscina...vamos que cada uno puede encontrar su sitio ideal. Durante nuestra estancia, no había problema de espacio y podías relajadamente bajar a la piscina a la hora que quisieses que aún tenías varios sitios dónde escoger, todo hay que decirlo, desconozco la ocupación que tenía el hotel en ese momento, quizás a un 80%¿?. No hace falta que lleves toalla, el hotel tiene de servicio de toallas diario, son amplias y suaves (no puedo decir lo mismo de las toallas de los baños, tenían un tacto áspero para mi gusto). Tema comidas, pues que decir, la verdad es que era como comer en casa, hay variedad de platos suficientes, tienes una zona de ensaladas (con infinidad de aliños posibles), una zona de quesos y frutos secos, dos show cooking (uno de carne y otro de pescado, y en cada uno siempre 2 o 3 variedades), pizzas casi todos los días (comer y cenar), hay algún día de comida italiana, otro de comida mexicana, también ponen shusi...todo muy rico y variado, no es como esos hoteles dónde vas y parece que todo sabe igual. Para mi la comida un 10. De especial disfrute por nuestra parte fue el desayuno, esto no os lo voy a destripar comprobarlo vosotros mismos...delicioso!! :oP. Quizás en la única comida que tenían menos variedad era durante el almuerzo, lógico por otra parte ya que éramos pocos con la pensión completa, aún así la calidad seguía siendo buena. Para todos aquellos que tengáis pensión completa plus, (incluyen bebidas) no os cortéis, nosotros al principio pedíamos solo dos aguas pero luego descubrimos que no había límite (o al menos nunca se negaron a sevirnos) y empezamos a disfrutar de la cerveza, zumos y vino de la casa. Para que os hechéis unas cuentas y ver si os compensa, dos aguas y dos zumos salen por 9,40 €. El tema de la animación, no opino, no participe en nada, lo que si puedo decir es que para nada molestan, simplemente algo de música por la mañana en la piscina mientras que se hacían actividades de acuagym y nada más. Por lo que es interesante este hotel, es por el tema del Buceo. En sus instalaciones disponen del personal y el equipo para inciarse en este mundo, desconozco precios. El SPA, es pequeñito, pero dispone de todo lo que necesitas para relajarte, por 10 euros tienes 2 horas para disfrutar, de sauna finlandesa y de vapor, jacuzzy, ducha de contraste, ducha fría, hielo, bebida, espacio para tomar el sol, piscina con circuito.Por otro lado, tienes la carta de los tratamientos de belleza y masajes, el precio similar al que puedas encontrar en cualquier otro centro de estas características, mi novia se hizo un masaje relajante de cuerpo entero por 65€. Del servicio diría que es lo mejor del hotel, son todos muy alegres y cordiales, siempre te reciben con una sonrisa y dispuestos a ayudarte en todo lo que necesites. En nuestro caso, conocimos a varias personas del hotel con las que tuvimos un trato más cercano y solo puedo decir maravillas, tanto de nuestro camarero en las cenas cuyo nombre no me acuerdo, empezaba por Re, como de Vladimir que nos aconsejó muy bien de que zonas visitar en la isla. Si tenéis dudas preguntar y os atenderán muy amablemente... (se me olvidó decir que te asignan una mesa para tu estancia, que obviamente se puede cambiar si no estás agusto). Un detalle que define como es el servicio: nos regalaron una botella de champán para la cena y una pastelito a media tarde acompañada de una carta personalizada el día que mi novia cumplió años...nos quedamos perplejos con el detalle que tuvieron! Los jardines, merece la pena darse un paseo por el resto de las instalaciones del hotel y descubriréis rincones nuevos cada día, la vegetación es exhuberante y muy colorida y tienen plantas realmente curiosas. Ya no sé que más contar.... :oP....que reservéis en él y seguro no os va a dejar indiferentes. Ah!! si!!! al lado del hotel (a 50 metros) tenéis un super (cadena DINO¿?) muy barato, para comprar, agua o lo que necesitéis. El aparcamiento es gratuito en garaje privado del hotel, para entrar en el garaje primero debéis hacer el check-in (se entra con la tarjeta de la habitación). Lugares para visitar: Paseo de noche y de día por Puerto de Mogán. Visita al Roque Nublo y al Roque Bentayga. Recomiendo que se visiten uno al atardecer y otro a media tarde, la luz en ambos momentos es espectacular. Al primero de ellos se tarda en subir caminando desde el lugar donde se deja el coche unos 30-35 minutos y al segundo unos 20-25 minutos (en este segundo aunque la carretera este cortada, se puede subir andando sin problemas. En el momento de nuestra visita el centro de interpretación estaba en obras). Si queréis hacer una parada después de visitar alguno de esos roques, os recomiendo dirigiros a Tejada, daros un paseo por sus callejas (es pequeñito y tranquilo) y tomaros un café griego en el Let Me Take You! Son una pareja de chicos que os atenderán con mucha alegría y que si os apetece os darán una charla agradable. [--] No podéis perderos las dunas de Maspalomas, es un sitio precioso. Buscar el hotel Riu y entrar a las Dunas atravesando su hotel, os encontraréis con el mirador (está abierto al público), después podréis llegar hasta la playa atravesándo las dunas (30 minutos) y daros un buen paseo por la orilla. Será una experiencia inolvidable, es un sitio realmente precioso. y depués de este rollazo acabo como empecé, hablando de los 3 hoteles, si queréis una zona tranquila, un hotel familiar o para disfrutar en pareja, El Cordial es vuestro hotel, sin embargo si buscáis una zona con más marcha decantaros por el BAOBAB o el Villa del Conde (Costa Meloneras). Y para completar si buscáis locales de ambiente (Maspalomas). Aprovechando la visita, nos colamos en ambos hoteles y dimos un paseo por sus instalaciones, y la verdad que el Baobab para mi gusto es mejor hotel (5*). Espero que este batiburrillo de ideas os sirva para aclarar si realmente un hotel 4 estrellas plus puede realmente estar entre los mejores hoteles de la isla, la respuesta es clara, SI.

Nous rentrons du Cordial Mogan (9 a 16 juin 2011) est ne pouvons que recommander cet hôtel pour les voyageurs amoureux de diversités botanique et d'originalité.L'hôtel a été construit en 2007 de façon magnifiquement intégré dans la roche à divers endroits, ce qui fait son charme.On se croirait dans un petit village aux ruelles et bâtiments colorés.Très facile pour les personnes en chaises roulantes.Deux piscines chauffées, avec ou sans reconstitution de plage de sable à certains endroits.Un bassin rond pour les petits enfants.Aucun problème pour trouver un transat avec matelas des linges et un parasol fournis dans les prestations,c'est un plus fort agréable!Le personnel est très sympa et souriant,(en tout cas en cette saison,l'occupation étant à 70%)nous y avons même parlé français avec certains, (demandez Marco à la reception) sinon communiquez en Espagnol,Anglais,Allemand.La mer est à quelques minutes à pieds,vous vous y rendez par une jolie promenade sur la jetée bordée de restaurants et petits bazars souvenirs (joliment tous pareils).La plage est propre,libre,location payante de parasols et transats. vous pouvez louer des jet-skis (50Euros/30 min par pers) et d'autres activités mais la plupart peuvent se faire aussi depuis l'hôtel.En suivant le bord de mer,vous arriverez au port de pêche et restaurants de poissons frais,et en passant par le chantier naval vous arrivez au submarine advendure, sympa pour voir l'épave d'un bateau sous l'eau mais le fond marin n'a rien de sensationnel!Allez manger des tapas au restaurant Tapas Tapas près du pont vers la place de jeux sur la jetée, c'est tout bon rapport qualité/prix,sauf parfois les odeurs de canal à marée basse!A l'hôtel nous avons été très content des repas proposés en demi-pension,sauf les pâtisseries qui sont pas géniales mais chacun ses goûts!Jus de fruits frais super et machine à cafés gratuit!Une semaine c'est top pour faire le tour de tout le buffet et snacks des piscines.Les animations du soir ne sont pas top pour une clientèle trop jeune.Nous prenions le repas du soir au service de 20h30 et souvent les petits spectacles étaient terminés à notre sortie de table.Pas de disco digne de ce nom!Hormis ça notre séjour a été magnifique, reposant et ensoleillé!

Ein sehr schönes Hotel. Perfekt für Paare oder Familien, weil direkte Umgebung ruhig ist. Für Partysuchende, nicht ideal, weil man ca. 1 Stunde mit dem Bus bis zum Partyareal (Playa del ingles) fahren muss. Morgenbuffet ist der hammer, kann es mit einem 5-sterne Hotel aufnehmen. Zimmer sind eher gros, sehr ordentlich und schön ausgestattet. Pool sehr sauber und gross.

Very well run hotel with magnificent gardens and pool areas. Hard to fault with good food nice rooms and suites spotlessly clean. Staff are attentive and professional without being pretentious. Hotel would be fine for couples families of all ages. My 3 year old was well looked after. It's a relaxing hotel more than full on, but there is evening entertainment, a young child's disco and several bars and restaurants. The area is flat right into Morgan and hotel and area fine for wheelchair access etc. In fact puts uk to shame!. Morgan remains a small pretty town catering for couples and young families rather than groups. I would say great for a week, but would need to start looking at trips for a fortnight. A very high standard safe bet hotel all round. June was quiet and warm (very pleasant rather than silly)as the summer can be very hot. Full board does not include drinks at meal times-this is full board plus and not easily obtainable outside hotel web page. Suites are quieter in gardens and have two rooms and a bathroom and balcony and/or garden area. Hotel happy to put extra single bed in room which was great for our three year old. Cleaning staff are immense in rooms and grounds and a real credit. food id good quality with enough choice. Suites have morning/lunch meals in a smaller garden restaurant which is nice. The staff are also excellent here. The gardens are an experience in themselves and add to the general feel of the hotel. This is a great hotel to go to for a safe bet, to relax as a couple of any age, with a young family happy to play in the pool with a little extra and people looking for easy flat access to most areas. It is a huge hotel complex but feels roomy because of the many bars pools and restaurants. More a good cruise ship on land!-used Canarytransferservice for the airport transfer. Reliable safe and good with kids. Any questions feel free to contact........

Great hotel, good breakfast, great location. Free internet in the lobby and free parking.

In a complete departure from our usual type of holiday, and with a longing to feel the sun on our faces, we booked this hotel (mainly due to previous revues) at only three days notice, This part of Gran Canaria is very stark and quarry-like, but the hotel is like an oasis of style and calm and greenery. From the glass of Cava on arrival to the absolutely immaculate gardens and bedrooms it was just perfect for a week away. The actual small town of Puerto de Mogan is also lovely - plenty of restaurants all built around a pretty harbour where you can while away the time and on reflection, we should maybe just have booked B&B rather than half board as its an easy walk down to the town and we could have tried a different meal every night. In the hotel, dinner was a buffet and it would maybe have been more relaxing to be served but thats just personal preference. If you're thinking of booking, read Trip Advisors reviews and the ones on the hotel's own website - they're pretty accurate. Hints and tips - avoid the Friday market (everyone says you should go, but although its huge, its full of tat). Do a complete circumnavigation of the dining room the first time you go to breakfast and also dinner BEFORE you start loading your plate (if you don't you'll inevitably miss out on something you wish you'd seen earlier ). Lunch on the terrace at the pool nearest to reception is good (very calm and civilised). Take time to stroll along all the paths wiithin the gardens and peep in to the courtyards - the variety of plants ans the colours of the flowers means there's a photo opportunity around every corner. And lastly, don't get a surprise when the light on your balcony goes out at 11pm - the hotel is very energy conscious!

Vi besökte denna fantastiska stad under december månad för att slippa julgröten etc. Hotellet var en botanisk upplevelse och en omfattades av en arkitektur som doftar lyx! Poolområdet ser lyxigt ut men all växtlighet skymmer solen under vissa delar av dygnet. Frukostbuffen var grym! Toppad med Cava för den som känner för det på morgonen. Rummen var stora och utrustade med bl.a dvd. Mycket trivsamma med spansk touch! Städningen var helt ok. Service. Nja, tyvärr stora brister i det engelska språket hos personalen ledde till många missförstånd, tråkigt! Läget. Vad säger man? Puerto de Mogan är som stad en pärla! En 10 min. promenad till hamnen och ett besök på valfri taverna måste upplevas! Fantastiskt!!! Hotellet rekommenderas till par (25-70 år) samt barnfamiljer.

Hi just got back from this lovely hotel!! I was reccommended this hotel by a friend so was a little optomistic!!! The first couple of days were a worry as the hotel was full due to a Canarian weekend so all the spanish were there! It was off putting as the breakfast and dinners were so crowded and it felt like a cattle market! Still by the Monday it was quieter and what a difference!!! A much more relaxed atmosphere! The food was good with plenty of selection and I loved the breakfasts especially the ommelates and the champagne every morning!! The pool was very clean and you could change your beach towel everyday which was a bonus! There was plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas! We ate a couple of nights al-a-carte and would reccomend having a meal in the restaurant in the hotel! On our last day we checked out at 12.00 and then had the use of the courtesey room fully equipped with showers toilet and changing facilities which were of no extra charge so nice as usually you are charged extra by other holiday companies!! All in all a fab stay in a very well run and clean establishment!! We will be returning!!!

I visited here with my husband for a much needed week away in the sun in April 2011. We really enjoyed our stay at the hotel and found Puerto Mogan itself to be charming :) From the friendly staff at check-in to the beautiful surroundings we felt safe in our choice, the atrium is beautiful and really sets the tone for the rest of the resort. We were welcomed, after being the last drop-off (it is about 40 minutes from the airport), with a nice glass of cold cava, which certainly felt like a good start to our holiday. The room was in the hotel side, it was a first floor room with a balcony, so we had a small garden area too. The room was clean, comfortable and spacious. The bathroom was modern with a separate toilet - very convenient. It was cleaned everyday but you could control when by using the door card (not exactly do not disturb but come back later or when you leave you can say the room is ready to be cleaned), I thought this was a nice touch. The cleaning staff always said hello when we passed them and looked genuinely happy to be working there. There was a complimentary bottle of water and wine plus a basket of fruit on arrival which was a super touch. My only niggle with the room was the people in there before us must have had food in there as we saw a few ants. There were small and only on a few occasions but it knocked a bit of the sparkle off, we didn't complain as it was a small issue to us and we liked our room so didn't want to change it. I'm sure if we had the hotel would've sorted it out. We were on half board which worried me at first as I wasn't sure we would want to eat at the hotel every night. I shouldn't of worried though as the hotel is very accommodating, allowing you to swap (we did three times) to the lunch time buffet instead of dinner. We enjoyed all mealtimes as no matter where you ate there was a wide selection, catering for many nationalities and tastes. The food was fresh, often cooked in front of you, and there was a large variety. I defy you to go hungry here! We enjoyed it anyhow :) The only thing not included is of course drinks, you do pay restaurant prices for wine by the bottle etc but they often have two of three on specials and we really enjoyed them. A nice tip though, if you like a drink before dinner is to buy a bottle or two at the supermarket over the road to enjoy on your balcony, we did a couple of times (there are wine glasses in your room), a bottle of Friexnet cost approximately 7 euros (and if you like lager - especially Spanish - that was even cheaper :D). However drinks served at the resort are value for money - the spirits and mixers especially so, however you many need two glasses so you can make several drinks from one serving! Beware of the cocktails, very very alcoholic and strong, slightly too strong for me. Entertainment is provided with nightly shows, we only really saw one or two as we tended to have a wander or enjoy a drink on our balcony instead. It is fairly typical holiday camp style entertainment and gets repeated so you may want to check what it is before staying in the resort. Saying that the resort is extremely family friendly with two sittings for dinner and children being allowed in the bars etc. There's also activities during the day, a kids club and lots of pool activities (play equipment etc). The resort also has tennis courts, a spa and two big pools. The pools were well looked after and the plant life and gardens well maintained. It felt a very safe place, both inside the gated resort and in Puerto Mogan itself. It was a five minute walk into the small town and marina area. The beach is small but clean and the bay and marina are extremely picturesque. We ate a few times near the marina but our favourite restaurant was a place called Zoo (it's by the car park just as you cross the small bridge towards the marina). The food and the food and the cocktails were fab and the waitress was super! You must try it, try the zoo burger - delish! Our Thomson rep was very friendly, funny and gave great advice without being pushy. We booked a couple of excursions with them, one a helicopter ride (quite expensive but fun) and the other a VIP tour of the island - which was interesting but did get a bit samey. Both were good experiences as we got to see another side to Gran Canaria. We also caught the glass bottomed ferry into Puerto Rico against the advice of one of the Information reps. She was right, it is a bit of a dump. Not really for us, too many sports bars and lots of people. But we did find a nice place for lunch, across from the beach - where we had tapas that was yummy for a reasonable price, washed down by a large cold beer. Restaurante Caballito de Mar - try it especially if you like seafood. We also visited Playa del Ingles by local bus, not expensive and very easy, it is also built up but a good start for a walk to the sand dunes at Maspalomas. We will return to Puerto Mogan in the future as it is a super resort, we particularly liked our stay at the Cordial Mogan too, highly recommend it!

A very nice hotel with excellent service and good food in a good setting near the town of Mogan. We have had a 2-weeks stay 3 years in a row with sun all day. The last 2 years with our friends.

I cannot praise this hotel enough. Not only is it an exceptional 4* hotel but the service from all staff is above & beyond what they need to do. The cleaning lady noticed I had rolled a blanket under my pillow to make it higher, so she brought me another pillow (without having to be asked). The waiter in the restaurant learnt our son's name and made sure he spoke to him every evening, when we waited a short while for a beer round the pool they brought an extra one to apologise for the wait, a maintenance guy sent to fix our safe was there before we had got back from reception! These things are just a small list of how they made us feel valued. The buffet is the best we have ever had. All food is freshly cooked and replaced so regularly there's never an empty tray, and quantity - well its hard not to put on weight! The large swimming pools really ARE heated - which really makes a change and was great for our 4 year old, it has a large shallow end ideal for the little ones. On arrival we received a glass of bubbly, our son an inflatable ball which is again such a nice touch. The area itself is very quiet, but lovely for evening walks to the harbour & many restaurants. We will definitely be returning.

Chose this hotel after reading all the past reviews and photos and our expectations were more than exceeded. By chance we were sat next to another couple on the plane that were also staying in this hotel and right from our arrival at 2am, we all got the most welcoming reception with complimentary champagne and also a box of goodies (sandwiches, pastries and fruit) as we had missed dinner, the assumption that we would be hungry after the night flight and transfer was spot on. We were then shown to our room and helped with our luggage. The rooms are as per the brochures only much bigger than I had expected with a well equipped bathroom, massive wardrobe and built in safe. Breakfast is a fantastic choice, full english with fried eggs and omelettes cooked fresh in front of you, continental meats and cheeses, fantastic pastries, fruit, yoghurts, cereals etc even smoked salmon and champagne if you wanted! Half Board was definately worth opting for in our opinion, a vast selection of dishes with fresh meat and fish cooked in front of you then straight to your plate, variying from day to day so you won't get bored of the same thing. Also if you order a bottle of wine and only drink part they will quite happily put it aside and chilled for you until the next night. Swapped dinner for lunch a couple of times, variety again was good with plenty salads, pizzas, paella, pastas perfect for a lunchtime appetite. Used the spa facilities 3 times and whilst aesthetically in places it needs a little tlc, it was great. The perfect mini spa and only 10euros for a 2hour session. Also great selection of treatments at reasonable prices, not too disimilar to what you'd expect in the UK. Had a back and legs massage, which was really relaxing, only wish I had more time and money to take advantage of some of the other treatments like body scrubs, wraps, indian head massage and reflexology. As for the onsite bars, out favourite was the La Fula bar by the quieter pool (near reception), great customer service from barman Edison and fantastic cocktails! This bar also served food during the day and would deliver your order direct to your sunlounger if you wanted. The evening bar with entertainment downstairs again had great table service and even though the entertainment wasn't amazing or to everyone's taste it was a well balanced variety throughout the week. I really could gush and gush about this hotel, with it's great service where nothing is too much for the guests, the gorgeous botanical gardens everything is surrounded by and the situation less than 10mins walk from the beach, marina or bus stop if you want to venture to other parts of the island. But full justice is only done by experiencing it first hand. We will definately be going back here, it's the kind of place I've always wanted to find where I know I can go to for a guarenteed relaxing holiday.

Eine ausgezeichnet geführte Anlage mit allem was das Herz begehrt, Entspannung, Sport, Unterhaltung und sehr gutes, vielfältiges Essen - außergewöhnlicher Service in allen Bereichen von authentisch freundlichem, sprachlich sehr gut geschultem Personal. Bereits beim Check-In mit Erfrischungsgetränken in der weitläufigen, geschmackvoll eingerichteten Lobby fühlten wir uns wohl. Ab diesem Moment brauchen wir uns um wirklich nichts mehr kümmern, die Koffer wurden uns abgenommen, im komfortabel eingerichteten Zimmer mit wunderschönem Poolblick erwartete uns ein Obst- und Getränkewillkommensgruß. Die absolut gepflegten weitläufigen Poolanlagen, die prachtvollen Gärten, der entspannende SPA Bereich und das umfangreich ausgestattete Fitnesscenter gefielen uns sehr gut. Gaumenfreuden in allen Restaurants, sehr aufmerksamer Bar- und Restaurantservice. Eigentlich wollten wir das Restaurant gar nicht verlassen. In der Nähe gibt es viele Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, einen malerischen Hafen mit Bars und Restaurant und einen Strand. Wer ausschwärmen möchte, obwohl es auch ein professionelles Showprogramm im Hotel gibt, hat verschiedene Möglichkeiten im nahegelegenen Puerto Rico. Die Berglandschaft ist auch sehenswert. Wir waren nur drei Tage dort, weil wir eine Rundreise über die ganze Insel unternommen haben. Aber wir kommen bald wieder - an keinem anderen Ort auf Gran Canaria haben wir uns so wohl und ausgezeichnet versorgt gefühlt!

Una 2 semana preciosa estancia durante el fin de marzo. Lo recomendaría encarecidamente y me alojaría de nuevo. Pregunta por un cubre para la cama, ya que son bastante duras!

Nos alojamos en el hotel en 2011 mayo. mi esposa y yo hicimos el check out este hotel antes que la reservamos. la críticas que leímos eran excelentes, así que nuestras expectativas eran muy altas. después nos habíamos alojado por la semana nos dimos cuenta que este hotel debería ser un 5 estrellas nos lo pasamos de maravilla y estoy deseando volver bien hecho!

sehr gut! wir sind zum zweiten mal da gewesen, weil es uns im fubruar so zugesagt hat. das hotel bietet sehr guten comfort und eine sehr angenehme Atmosphäre. ein wohl-fühl-ort für solche, die nicht aktivitäts-besessen sind.

El hotel es excelente mucho mejor de lo que esperaba. Todo el personal del hotel es muy amable y nada era demasiado para ellos. Los jardines son increíbles, como estar en un jardín botánico, y estaba impecable, así como lo era cada zona del hotel. Las comidas eran de un estándar alto, y muy muy variada y de nuevo los camareros muy amable (ved incluso champán para el desayuno). Tanto las áreas de piscina preciosa y bien cómodas hamacas con toallas gratis. Encontrar una tumbona, hasta la tarde, no fue un problema, ya que había muchas. Hotel situado a una corta distancia pie en el puerto. Muy adecuado para cualquiera con una silla de ruedas. Las habitaciones eran muy buenas y las limpiaban cada día y tenía gratis con aire acondicionado y un montón de extras en el baño. En definitiva, volveremos.

This hotel is first class with quiet relaxing surroundings. The gardens are exceptional with over four hundred plants/trees and shrub verieties most of them labled. We stayed for seven nights in mid May when the hotel was not full although it did get busier just before we left (this did not detract from the enjoyment of the hotel or its surroundings as they were well able to cope with the additional numbers). Plenty of sun beds around two good quality pools. One or two small negative points to bear in mind which we seem to experience in Spanish hotels. These are the extra costs involved for example 18 euros ( £17.00) for a room safe for a seven night stay. The table water at dinner we thought was expensive, we paid 2.10 euros (nearly £2.00) for a half litre of bottled water, we had two bottles a night so approx £4.00 for two people per night. I worked this out at 21 times more expensive the buying 5 litres of the same brand in the supermarket across the road. Please note that the cost of drinking water in a large number of holiday destinations is, as you can tell from the above, one of my pet hates. Drinking water is an essential part of survival in a hot climate which everyone seems to take advantage of from airports to hotels. Puerto de Mogan is a quite tourist type village with some of the original housies on the hill above. The shops are of good quality and do not have many of the usual tourist tat shops that dominate other resorts (a real plus as far as we are concerned). A good mix of English, German, Italian and Spanish holiday makers gives it a real international feel.

We had a wonderful holiday here at the Cordial Mogan Playa. The staff were lovely and very helpful. The surroundings are out of this world! amazing gardens, fountains and waterways. We wanted a week of total relaxation, and that's what we got! The spa was wonderful, we made use of the facilities twice during our stay. Both times we had an hour of reflexology followed by a few hours in the spa pool, steam room, sauna, etc. and relaxing on the spa sun beds. The food was good too, we were half board and didn't feel the need to eat elsewhere, this time. Will certainly go back to this hotel, but next time may explore the island a bit more. Hoping to go back in January next year.

ho viaggiato da sola con 2 bimbi di 3 e 5 anni.sono riuscita a rilassarmi grazie all ottima qualità dei servizi offerti e della struttura tutta'comoda'.temevo gli albergoni tipici di canarie enormi dove ci si mette 3 giorni per orientarsi.devo invece dire che la scelta è stata ottima anche perchè la struttura ricorda un villaggio molto curato,4 stelle plus tutte meritate,tutto comodo.i bimbi andavano perfino da soli in camera e si muovevano con facilità.avevo una junior suite dotata di giardinetto privato,bella veranda attrezzata,bagno con vasca e doccia,tv con lettore dvd,ben pulita 2 volte al giorno.le j.suite sono ubicate tra la spiaggia, a 200mt,e la piscina,riscaldata e ottimale anche per i bimbi.c sono 2 vasche idromassaggio e sabbia a granellini che non appiccica,molto positivo, parzialmente intorno alla piuscinanessuna corsa per il posto.tanta tranquillità ed educazione.la hall èstrepitosa.la sera la musica del pianoforte fa da piacevole sottofondo.il ristorante per la cena èampiola prima sera si sceglie un tavolo e quello resta.ottimo cibo e servizio.se cè un minimo problema corrono.se si avanza il vino ti forniscono di tappo e la bottiglia si può portare in camera.il frigobar è vuoto e lo si riempie a piacimentola sera gli spettacoli sono di gruppi professionisti.molta musica dal vivo.il miniclub funziona bene,dalle 9 alle 13 e dalle 14 alle 16.i miei bimbi ci andavano volentieri e facevano lavoretti.cè anche una sala boowling bellissima anche per piccoli ospiti.l unico neo è il pranzo..solo perchè cè ripetitività di cibo.la colazione è di gran qualità..cè anche lo champagne!in boutique cè una signora italiana,donata,gentile e disponibile per ottimi consigli. l'accoglienzaè molto piacevole,palloncino ai bimbi e fresco prosecco per adulti.l entrata spa solo10 eu per 2 ore.molto curata per max 6 ospiti. il clima è ideale.17 gradi la sera intorno ai 26 digiorno.si sta benissimo.io ho preso un taxi tramite l hotel a 65 eu a tratta.ottime auto,cordialissimi.ci impiega 40 minuti.lo consiglio.sono molto esigente e l hotel per la prima volta è stato per me al di sopra delle aspettative

Flott hotell med knall bra frokost bufe. Rommene er fine og rene. Bassenget er flott og deilig å bade i, til og med en liten sandstrand.

Posto meraviglioso curato nei minimi dettagli. Pulizia da 10! Personale disponibilissimo, gentile e professionale. Ristorante incantevole. I miei figli vogliono tornare e lo faremo! Camere molto ben arredate e grandi. L'unico piccolo dettaglio sarebbe la mancanza d'una vasca dove poter fare il bagno ai bambini piccoli. per il resto tutto perfetto!

From arrival I knew that this was a hotel of very high standards - we were welcomed with a refreshing drink and given clear explanations as to location of rooms, meals etc. The whole complex is spotless, rooms are spacious and the staff couldn't do enough to help make your stay worthwhile. One tip I would have is to ask for a table away from the centre of the dining room, we asked for a table near the window. This is a hotel which is popular with families and we found at dinner that a lot of small children were allowed to roam unattended. This should be addressed by the management as it is a health and safety issue for staff and guests alike - parents should be genly encouraged not to let small children wander about when hot food is being carried by guests and staff. Having said that, the food is excellent! The bar staff were friendly, attentive and very professional. The managers deserve a special mention, they were excellent, always available, friendly and approachable. All the staff seemed to be very happy working in the hotel which says a lot. Overall, I was very impressed. The resort is beautiful - go to the lighthouse for the best views in town! We thought that the market (on Friday) was a bit disappointing. Highly recommended, and if the staff are reading this, well-deserved praise! I hope to be back nexy year.

Tanto a mi pareja como a mí nos encantó el hotel, aunque nuestra estancia fuera sólo de fin de semana. Todo el personal hace honor al nombre de este hotel, ya que nos trataron con una cordialidad y amabilidad inmejorables. La recepción, los jardines, la habitación, las piscinas, la animación y la comida fueron excelentes.

Vi hadde et 14 dagers opphold på Cordial Mogan Playa hotell med to små barn (9 mnd og 2 1/2 år). Flotte oppvarmede store bassenger, litt kalde barnebassenger på morgningen, men de varmet seg opp i løpet av dagen. Fine muligheter for å ligge i skygge og fine alternativer for solstolplassering (fliser, sand, kunstgress, noe tilbaketrukket eller mitt i folkemengden). Gode muligheter for avslapning mitt på dagen i cafe/barområde og super bra utvalg på hotellfrokosten. Fint barne-aktivitetsrom med veldig søt betjening. Litt synd at grensen for å være alene er 4 år, men forståelig. Vi kunne allikevel bruke det så lenge det var en forelder tilstede. Gode madrasser på reisesengene til barna. Dersom du har spesielle ønsker eller behov ang. balkong eller rom kan det være lurt å ringe direkte til hotellet og få dette bekreftet. Et deilig opphold på et nydelig hotell med mye småbarnsfamilier og pensjonister :)

The hotel was spothless, the grounds are superb, the breakfeast fantastic (and included in the rate). The personal very friendly (speaks generally, spanish, german and english, no french). Two large pools, but that can be quite busy during the day. Didn't go for diner, was to formal for us. The beach is at around 10 minutes walk. Go to the port, it is very nice and full of restaurants for the evening, very charming village. Would go back without hesitation.

Ein top Urlaub und das Hotel ist genial.

We visited the Cordial Mogan Hotel in the Easter Holidays with our young children. This hotel really did exceed our expectations. From day one we were able to totally relax. The rooms were a very good size and immaculately clean. Good sized beds and very comfortable. Our rooms looked out onto the the most wonderful cactus gardens. We used the pool near the tennis courts which seemed more suited to families with young children. It was a salt water pool and a really good size with a very large shallow area. We booked bed and breakfast only but next time we would definitely book half board purely for lunch. We ate lunch at the poolside restaurant most days. The food was very good [especially if you like to eat healthily] with a large selection of salads and choice of fresh fish, chicken or meat option cooked in front of you by the chef. I would definitely recommend to either hire a car or get a private transfer from the airport as we booked a package which included a large coach transfer which took around 1 hour 40 mins to get from airport to hotel after dropping other passengers off at a number of hotels before us. If you have a private transfer or hire a car it takes around 40 minutes. The local port area is very picturesque with a large choice of restaurants. We found a couple of fantastic places, an Italian restaurant in the square called Clipper which sold authentic italian food which was quite outstanding, one on the front of the harbour which sold the most amazing fresh fish platter which had eight diferent types of fish and shellfish for two for 30 euros. The hotel was at full capacity when we stayed there but it really did not feel crowded at all! The staff were very friendly, helpful and professional. I will definitely be returning to this hotel with my family in the future!

We spent a week at the Mogan Playa in early April and were very impressed. All the hotel staff were friendly and helpful, the hotel buildings, pools and gardens are very well kept and clean. Rooms are spacious and clean, our only gripe would be the lack of sun on the balcony - but we just spent longer by the pool... Excellent location only a few minutes walk through the gardens to the harbour, restaurants and shops. We were half-board and enjoyed all meals - amazing choice for both breakfast and evening meal. We would definitely stay here again.

After all the positive reviews on this hotel, We could not wait to arrive. Well we were not disappointed. The Cordial Playa is a class act from start to finish. The hotel grounds are truly stunning, the staff impeccable in their service from the cleaners through to the hotel management. Nothing was too much trouble for them and our every need was catered for. I got the impression that the staff enjoyed working at the hotel and that says much for the management culture. The clientele is mixed with Germans predominating. The hotel tried hard to stop them reserving the sunbeds! No easy task. The restaurant staff were superb and mostly the food was excellent, breakfasts in particular were first class and if you have a mind to it you could feast out on champagne and smoked salmon at 9 in the morning. The hotel is not a cheap option but you get what you pay for. It is brilliantly located in a very pretty resort and I would not hesitate to recommend it to all discerning holiday makers.My family and I will most certainly return. If you are reading this and are hesitating in making a booking then stop being silly and press the button, you will not be disappointed, I promise.

Underbart hotell med en fantastisk miljö. Fint anlagd växtlighet med palmer, fruktträd, kryddväxter och kaktussar. Lugnt på området, speciellt nattetid. Fina pool områden, gott om solbäddar med god standard. Restaurangen/baren vid poolen serverade goda luncher med snabb service. Frukostbuffén var enorm, det fanns allt man kunde önska sig + lite till, t.o.m. "spansk champagne". Alla carté restaurangen hade en begränsad meny, väldigt bra service, men maten levde inte upp till priset, dock helt ok .Personalen på hotellet var mycket hjälpsamma och trevliga, jobbade snabbt och effektivt. Vi åker gärna tillbaka!

Miejscowość jak w bajce - mówią na to mała Wenecja. Sympatyczny port, bardo zadbany i cichutki. Hotel Cordial wkomponowany jest w atmosfere tego miejsca - nie jest to wielki moloch, ale wakacyjna, luksusowa, cicha wioska. Dodatkowym atatuem hotelu jest jego obsluga - profesjonalna, miła i szybka. Nic dziwnego - szefem hotelu jest nasz rodak :-) Super! Polecam!

This is the first time I have ever written a review of a hotel however this one deserves its No 1 position in Trip Advisor. Our stay was without any complaint. The hotel proudly shows its guests around the facilities and has nothing to hide but much to be proud of. This speaks volumes.

The hotel was fantastic, lovely heated pools, jacuzzis, food and entertainment. four lane bowling alley and squash court were free to use - brilliant way to keep out of the sun for a while. The staff couldn't have been friendlier - they made our holiday. Brilliant hotel, Will definately be back!

Upon arrival at 10pm We were given a Glass of Cava and Where given directions where we could get some food whilst we were checked into our Suite, in the Main Dining Hall (Excellent Service & Friendly Staff throughout) food was good quality and plenty of choice this was "After Main Service Had Finished but where were accommodated never the less". Once finished eating we headed to the Suite (porter service was also excellent) we crashed to be honest and didn’t really pay much attention to anything. On waking up the Next morning the Wow factor really hit, the Suite was Outstanding and much better than I expected and My Expectations are "Very High". The large living area equally large Bedroom and Gorgeous Balcony with 2 Loungers and Table and Chairs blew us away. The maid service i have to say is the very best i have ever seen and i have stayed in hundreds if not thousands of places. Their attention to Detail was out of this world down to the little Chocolate on the pillow every day of our stay and fresh Fruit and a Bottle of Wine "When Needed”, extra pillows upon noticing my wife folding hers just reiterated how much attention was made to our needs and a fold away bed for our 5yr old son, this was especially appreciated by my wife who tried to find out who our Maid was as she wanted to thank her personally so let us say it here “Thank You Very Much”. The hotels grounds were also immaculate and the plants and trees where beautiful, the pool was kept in tip top condition and very nice. The Kids Club was fabulous and my Son Jacob loved it to bits and thinks the world of Nicki the young lady who was working there, she was very friendly and understanding and had the Patients of a Saint as Jacob is very demanding but we left with a fantastic Photo of them both and some wonderful memories as Nicki also did the Evening Kids Disco which was Equally Excellent, Thank You Nicki you are an Asset to the Hotel. Overall Our Stay Was Wonderful and would Highly Recommend this Hotel to Anyone.

Ett vackert hotell i en underbar Tropisk trädgård med fantastiska poolområden-dock ej att rekommendera för barn. Otroligt god och stor frukost buffet. Spa att besöka för behandlin el bara sitta i enorm jacuzzi. Trevlig, bilfri promenad till hamnen somär fylld med restauanger,

Nos alojamos esta Semana Santa y recién llegados de las vacaciones puedo decir, casi con toda seguridad, que reservar en este hotel fue la mejor decisión que pudimos haber tomado. Llegamos el domingo, muy tarde (sobre las 00,00), cansados de un vuelo bastante estresante y nos dimos cuenta de haber llegado al paraíso. Nos reciben amablemente, realizando el check-in lo más rápido posible. Debido a la hora que llegamos, les solicitamos previamente si era posible una cena fría. Nos la tenían adecuadamente preparada y nos la entregaron en el momento (un pequeño picnic, pero suficiente). Aparcamos el coche en el garaje y alli,uno de los empleados, Octavio, muy amable, nos acompaño desde el mismo, portando nuestras maletas y guiándonos hasta el cuarto. Por el camino nos informó un poquito de todo, incluso de zonas a visitar, lo que es de agradecer, dada la hora que era. La recepción es espectacular, no hay palabras para describirla. La habitación era perfecta. Dos camas unidas, balcón con vistas a la piscina y un baño aceptable. El buffet tanto del desayuno como el de la cena con bastante variedad y lo que es más importante, de buena calidad. Los jardines son espectaculares y están perfectamente cuidados. Las piscinas tienen el agua climatizada (era muy agradable estar dentro de ellas), amplias y limpias. Había bastantes tumbonas y sombrillas. El personal es intachable, del primero al último, te hacen sentir como en casa. Atentos, amables, educados, serviciales, en fin, un diez para ellos. La limpieza en las zonas comunes era perfecta y en los dormitorios aceptable. Y seguiría así hasta el infinito, porque lo cierto es que nos hemos enamorado de este hotel, hasta el punto de planear nuestras próximas vacaciones aquí de nuevo. Se lo recomiendo a todo aquel que necesite descansar, porque aúna sol, calorcito, relax y buena comida, que más se puede pedir?

Hemos estado 4 días con nuestro hijo de 4 años y desde el momento de la llegada han sido superamables, tanto en recepción como en el comedor como cualquier empleado con el que te encontraras o al que necesitaras. Tienen un buffet tremendamente variado y de gran calidad, con dos turnos para cenar, el primero de horario más noreuropeo y el segundo (hasta las 22h) más adaptado a los españoles, por lo que no se producen aglomeraciones; además reponen constantemente lo que se acaba y tienen dos zonas de plancha en las que preparan al momento carnes, pescados, etc. Lo cierto es que la gente de la isla es muy amable en general, tanto en Las Palmas como en Puerto Mogán, donde hay muchísimo extranjero pero es un turismo tranquilo y educado. La verdad es que ha sido una estancia fantástica y muy recomendable. Si te quieres mover algo por la isla recomiendo alquilar coche y ¡ojo! pq muchas compañias no permiten devolver el coche en Puerto Mogán, aunque en este hotel tienen una compañia que sí aunque desconozco los precios.

This hotel lives up to all the positive reviews posted previously! We have just spent a very relaxing week here in lovely surroundings. The only thing I would change would be to have bed and breakfast as we thoroughly enjoyed eating by the harbour most evenings. However we were able to change our half board meal plan for lunch buffet instead of dinner. This is the only place in gran Canaria I would stay.

This hotel is really beautifully designed, spacious and yet has character. The rooms are spotless and large but go for one on the third floor (top floor), as the floors are marble and you are often awoken by the sound of cleaners moving the beds in the room above! The food is varied and deliciousand you can eat as much as you are able!! The pools are salt water and clean. The staff couldn't be more helpful and seem genuinely sincere in their desire to make your stay perfect. We stayed for 5 nights and the weather was perfect for an early sun short break. The town is quiet so don't go if you want night life! Evening entertainment in the hotel was ok - we gave it a miss after 15 minutes each night! There is a small shopping centre oppposite for water etc and plenty of restaurants in town if you want a change. We had half board but you can swap lunch for evening meal when you wish.

We have just returned from a two week stay at the Cordial Mogan Playa. As it has been 20 years since we last visited the Canary Islands there was some trepidation as to what to expect. The hotel certainly lived up to all of our expectations. The hotel is very impressive with areas where you can find some peace and quiet or be right in the thick of things. With two large pool areas and extensive gardens as well as four choices of restaurant, tennis courts, gym and several bar areas it would be difficult not to be satisfied. The rooms are large and comfortable although we did ask to be moved as the room we were allocated, although overlooking the cactus garden and in a beautiful spot, got no sunshine on the balcony to speak of at any point during the day. The reception staff were most helpful and arranged this for us. The a la carte restaurant, La Guayres, has to be one of the best places to eat on the island, with both service, staff and quality of food excellent and probably rates in my top ten of all time best restaurants. Likewise, the manager, therapists and treatments in the spa Inagua,were of top quality and certainly equivalent, if not better, than spas I have visited in the U.K. Puerto de Mogan remains the prettiest area of Gran Canaria and has retained many of its original qualities - unlike Puerto Rico! We will definitely visit this hotel again in the future, with the weather and what is on offer it amounts to a pretty impressive destination for an out of season break.

Well this hotel certainly matched our expectations. Nestled in the lovely picturesque village of Puerto Mogan we couldn't have been happier. Not having stayed Half Board before I wasn't sure what to expect. The food was amazing, in fact so much choice it was quite bewildering at first. The staff were faultless, so courteous and polite. The hotel was peaceful and so quiet at night despite the amount of people staying there. The only thing we would have changed would be the dinner time sittings there being one early and the second sitting later. We would have preferred there to be just one long sitting when we could go down to dinner at our leisure. The room itself was roomy, the bathroom so spacious, just remember to take a travel kettle with you for an early morning cuppa. We loved the fact that you could walk to the marina within ten minutes and took a couple of boat trips. Just make sure when you return (from Anfi) that you stand at the point where the boat picks you up as we went round the corner and as the boat came in we went back to the stop but because we weren't actually standing there initially (and we certainly weren't late) the guy at the stop waved the boat away so it didn't even dock to pick us up so we had to get the bus home which was fine (apart from the hairpin bends). We went to other parts of the island which we found to be very commercialised but if you want a tranquil holiday in a picturesque spot and staying at a wonderful hotel don't hesitate to come here. We will definitely return one day.

This really is a very nice hotel. The staff are friendly & welcoming (glass of cava on arrival), the pool areas are superb and the gardens are a tropical paradise. The meals are buffet style with a very wide range of choices for breakfast and dinner. Cava at breakfast, again help yourself to as much as you want, is a very nice touch. In the evening they have pancakes for dessert with a bottle of brandy next to them!! Chefs will cook meats and fish for you on request. During the day there are more than enough loungers around the pool but, as usual and in spite of notices to the contrary, people were reserving them on the way to breakfast. Funny lot! The rooms are very spacious (we had 3507, very good) and the bathrooms are more than adequate with lots of goodies. The beds are very firm but a request for something softer immediately produced excellent, softer mattress toppers. Try to get a high floor room. The evening entertainment leaves something to be desired but after a couple of glasses of wine it improved. The Ghanain acrobats were very, very good indeed, even without the glasses of wine. A short walk takes you to the really attractive Puerto De Mogan, a really charming harbour with lots of shops and restaurants and a huge Friday market. We will definitely go back.

Der Empfang war super freundlich, das Personal allgemein, insgesamt sehr empfehlenswert, schöne Zimmer, sehr gepflegte Anlage mit herrlicher Bepflanzung, sehr sauber, atraktives Restaurant mit guter Küche, wenige Meter zum kleinen Strand. Für eine Woche genau richtig für Entspannung und Erholung. Für Paare genau das richtige. Immer wieder gerne ....

Rundum ein wunderschöner kurzfristiger Erholungsurlaub. Und, nachdem wir uns einige Hotels auf der Insel angeschaut haben, mit die schönste Hotelanlage auf Gran Canaria.

Just got back from this lovely hotel and we had a very enjoyable holiday that was just super. The few negative comments that have been put forward really are nitpicking. We think the hotel has got everything just right, and you never can please all the people all the time, but they do a very good job to please and you only have to ask!! A nitpick of mine I would have liked some special offers in the spa( which was pricey) so that I could have indulged:)

have just returned from 1 week stay for our 25th wedding anniversary and cannot praise this hotel enough staff were brilliant and friendly the room was lovely and the gardens are by far the best that we saw we would go back in a heart beat though are now trying to get rid of the pounds that we put on from the buffets for breakfasts and evening meals. As it was out of season we had no problem getting loungers around the pool .Peurto mogan is a small seaside town lovely in the evening but if your looking for lots of nightlife it wouldnt be the place to go but if your looking for relaxation and recharging of your batteries its a top place

schöner Kurzurlaub, um dem Winter zu entfliehen, tolles Ambiente im Hotel und gutes Essen Mietwagen dazubuchen, sonst sieht man nichts von der Insel; Hotel verfügt aber auch über Reisebüro u. Mietwagenvermittlung im Hotel

Our check in was quick and ended with a glass of cava. The room was probably the best in the hotel, near the reception and overlooking the pool on the 4th floor. I had been intouch with the hotel prior via email to arrange flowers and chocolates in the room on arrival. The flowers were truly wonderful. On the big day we spent the morning in the Spa for 2 hours and then my wife had a treatment. On returning to the room we received a congratulatory letter from the Manager and a piece of Birthday Cake. We finished the evening with a meal in "Los Guayres", the A La Carte restaurant in the hotel. Here again we were given a complimentary bottle of Cava to start with and had a wonderful meal to follow. A day to remember. The hotel food was of a good standard especially the breakfast, so we didn't venture out much, though the marina contained many attractive restaurants and bars. Being professional gardeners my wife and I were extremely impressed with the design of the gardens and the landscaping. They were immaculate. I can confidently say that this 7 day stay at the Cordial Mogan Playa hotel was the best holiday we have ever had. If its to celebrate a special occasion possibly take a Return Taxi Transfer between the Airport and Hotel rather than the coach, as our trip by coach took some 2 hours. The taxi would take about 30-40 minutes at most.

heard of the hotel from family member who stayed previously. It surpassed our expectations. Staff were most pleasant and helpfull. The food for half board was well above average ans varied each day. the night entertainment left a lot to be desired. the gardens are magnificent and very well kept. We will return.

Firstly, for us, Puerto Mogan was just the sort of resort we were looking for - relaxing, small scale and attractive to walk around (due to the harbour and nicely laid out streets of the port area which has a great selection of restaurants and bars - try Cafe de Mogan (not the cheapest but excellent food). In this respect, and leaving aside its own facilities (which are great), the hotel is in a great area. One of the few downsides until they finish the motorway extension is that the last section of the journey from the airport on cliff hugging roads takes about 20 minutes. Back to the hotel - stunning reception area and beautiful pool areas and gardens. Rooms just the right size and well equipped (others have mentioned the properly cold mini bar fridge in the room great for keeping milk if you have a toddler like we do). They also have lots of power sockets which isn't true of all hotel rooms - great for charging computers, phones, digital cameras etc. Slight pain that there are no kettles/drinks making facilities in the room but kettles are available for a €10 deposit from reception (no actual daily hire cost) and we bought some cheap mugs from the Carrefour at Vecindario (not far from the airport ) when we went to stock up on a rainy day when there wasn’t much else to do. There is a Spar in Puerto Mogan and a Hiper DIno almost next to the hotel both well stocked so no need to go further afield if you don't want to/aren't able to. If you do go to the shopping complex where Carrefour is and want to eat then there is a very good cheapish Spanish restaurant in the food court on the ground floor in the corner - called Maison something I think. Whilst on the subject of Carrefour if, like me, you like to have internet access while away and don't want to have to go and sit in reception to use the free Wifi then buy a prepaid Carrefour data only SIM for your USB dongle - the SIM costs €10 including €5 of credit and the 100MB of 3G speed internet then costs €1 a day after which the speed drops to very slow - I found 100MB fine for browsing but just don't download lots of videos or music! Don’t put too much credit on as there is a minimum charge of €3/month which will use up your credit once you return home although I think the SIM stays active for at least 12 months). What really made the difference to us as the parents of a toddler though on this holiday were two things - the pleasantly warm water in the large swimming pool at the back of the complex (didn't try the other one so can't comment) and the staff in the Mini Club (Gosia and Adriana). Gosia was the person in the Mini Club most days and she really is fantastic with the kids - thinking of things for them to do and being permanently jolly, friendly and full of energy from first thing in the morning to the end of Mini Disco in the evening. Although our daughter pretended to be shy with her every day at first she loved her and Gosia and Adriana are real assets to the hotel when it comes to the kids. All the staff bar one in the whole hotel are friendly and pleasant - smiling and speaking to you and there really aren't many hotels where you can say that. The one exception is the Maitre D' or restaurant manager who I think may have acknowledged us once in our 12 days there and generally seemed to walk around avoiding eye contact although I saw him being friendly with other people so maybe it was just us?! Food wise at the hotel, the choice is great - again fantastic if you have a picky toddler and whilst some of the options weren't to our tastes (and the fish cooked while you waited on the hot plate was invariably bland and not well cooked) there was always something good to choose from including the sushi some nights as others have mentioned. The restaurant did get busy and sometimes you did have to queue for certain things but this is being picky. We were on half board and I can imagine that on full board, assuming lunch was similar to the evening meal, it could get repetitive. We arranged a car from the start to the end of the holiday but unusually for us used it very little (free underground parking at the hotel by the way but the spaces are incredibly small!) because we settled into a morning routine of breakfast followed by half an hour to an hour at mini club with our daughter (they can only be left there on their own from the age of 4) followed by an hour swimming. She then fell asleep as we walked down to the port (walk through the hotel ground and exit through the gate at the back using your room key swipe card - it’s really nice to see the beautifully kept grounds and smell things like the orange blossom as you walk) so we got a peaceful lunch before she woke and had her lunch. Then it was feed the fish on the way back to the beach and some time on the beach before making our way back to the hotel and getting ready for the first sitting of dinner. When we were researching we thought we would find dinner sittings a bind but given our daughter's addiction to mini disco at 7.30pm it worked out well and as first time parents we still sometimes forget that routine to toddlers means a lot! We didn’t see any of the evening entertainment so can’t comment on that. We would definitely go back to the hotel and it deserves its excellent reviews.

My partner and I stayed at this hotel for her 50th birthday and have no regrets in choosing either the hotel or the resort. If you're looking for a quiet (no clubs from what we saw) resort then this is worth a look. The only slight downer was that I found the bed a bit on the firm side but my partner had no problems. The resort - very pretty by day and by night. Lots of places to eat so no worries if you're staying somewhere room-only or B&B. The harbour area is very pleasant and you can spend the day strolling around and enjoying the sun. Market day is Friday and worth a look. The hotel - very friendly staff, good reception service, nice pool area (but I wish the hotel would not allow German travel companies to reserve sunbeds - you would see towels on sunbeds that were left empty all morning). I recommend this hotel and resort to anyone wanting a quiet and relaxing time. Good luck and happy travelling :)

This hotel is lovely, the gardens are beautiful and a pleasure to walk around. We went with an 8 month old baby and the pool area was perfect for him. The staff were very polite and always willing to help. The room was lovely and we cannot fault the high level of cleanliness of the room and the hotel itself. To be able to wander to the Marina to visit the beach was good as it was so close, especially using the back gate as you can be at the beach in under 5 minutes. The hotel staff were very flexible if we wanted to change our meal time or swap lunch for dinner. The pool area also never felt crowded as there are so many sun loungers and large areas surrounding the pools.

Allra bäst var frukosten och kvällsbuffén, varierad och ett enormt utbud.

This is some hotel, and more! The title of the review says it all in a nutshell. Initial impression as you enter the lobby and huge rotunda/conservatory is "WOW!" REALLY impressive with huge semi tropical plants, orchids, water falls and plenty of places to sit, watch and take it all in. Wherever you went, you were greeted with a smile by all the staff - from receptionists to gardeners. The rooms are spotless and all had balconies - ours got the late afternoon sun which was perfect for a doze after a hard day around the pool. The food was plentiful and of excellent quality - just don't go if you're trying to lose weight!! Interestingly, lunches at the pool "snack" bar were of comparable (high) standard to those you could enjoy in P.Morgan resort restaurants, but interestingly, marginally cheaper too. And P.Morgan itself is a delight - some excellent restaurants; beautifully clean; loads to see and watch, particularly around the marina area with an excellent beach complete with lifeguards. This is one resort I'd willingly go back to and probably will. And most definitely to this hotel!! Highly recommended.

Stayed for 7 nights and the hotel lives up to the reviews it has had. The choice of food was second to none, and the quality was high. The first night we thought the beds were hard so asked for a "Topper" which solved the problem completely. The Hotel is more like Kew Gardens than a hotel with full size palm trees in the main reception area and streams running through . The rooms are in blocksagain with gardens & water everywhere , plus the cacti garden etc etc. We spent a couple of hours wondering round exploring the place .... don't leave this till the last day! The resort has loads of charm and is prettier & more laid back than the other resorts we visited ..... Good Harbour with working fishing boats in one section.. we watched them landing Tuna one day. Good beach next to harbour. It is one of the farthest resorts along the South coast from the airport so if on a package, either make sure you are not dropping off everyone else before you or get a taxi. Plenty of good restaurants, but the food at the hotel is so good we didn't bother except for mid-day snacks. We went up into the mountains on the west of the island which is a totally different experience ... narrow gorges, high peaks, small whitewash villages, but it is much cooler ... Take a warm jumper or similar. There's a big market in the town on Fridays Would I go again .... Yes

Ein sehr schönes Hotel, in dem man wunderbar entspannen kann.

It is hard to add anything to all the reviews that have gone before. The location is perfect, the decor and gardens are spotless and well kept. The staff are generally very efficient. I did have the battery fail on my room door lock and reported it at reception, by the time I got back the maintanence man was already changing it, that was excellent service. The food is generally good and it must be hard to cater for all the nationalities that come to the hotel. I did like the respect that has been given to the burial site on the hill, together with the information boards that have been erected to tell you what it is and what has gone before. I have been to other hotels in the Canaries that are 4 star +. Such as the Natura Palace in Lanzarote. There are things missing at the Mogan Playa and I reckon it is to save money. There are no goodies such as shampoo and creams in the bathroom, there are no free fluffy bathrobes. (You can hire them). There was nothing in the mini bar. Okay they are small things, but it is just those little extras that make it 4 star +. But otherwise I have no other complaints and loved it. I thought that the free underground car park was great, because your car was cool when you went to it. Excellent establishment and I would go again and I would reccommend it to anyone.

Spent two weeks here in February. The perfect place at that time of year. Weather in 70s. We loved everything about the hotel and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. Every room has a balcony and although ours did not catch the afternoon sun it was still warm enough to sit out and enjoy a light lunch. Also there was a fridge in the room - perfect for those long cold drinks. Quiet resort with plenty of restaurants, though we didn't eat outside the hotel except for the occasional light lunch. Nice to sit in a harbourside bar in the evening and watch the sun go down. So much choice in the hotel restaurant that we could have a different meal each evening without repeating. Definitely an experience to be repeated.

This was my first trip to the Cordial Mogán Playa and after seeing a succession of not very nice looking hotels on the transfer from the airport, I was very pleasantly surprised with the hotel when we arrived. We were offered a glass of chilled Cava on arrival at reception and the friendly staff really helped to set the mood for a thoroughly relaxing week. The hotel is quite spread out with many separate blocks of rooms interspersed with stunningly landscaped sub-tropical gardens that give it a very different feel from any other hotel I've stayed at. The advantage of this is that you get the benefits of being in a hotel with the more relaxing environment of a small village apartment. Rooms are well appointed though the beds are a little on the cheap side and the TV only showed static in our room (not there to watch TV though!). As other reviewers have pointed out, you can sometimes hear noise from other rooms so if you're a light sleeper, remember to take ear plugs. The pool areas are well laid out, clean and as with the rest of the gardens, beautifully landscaped. There are plenty of sun loungers though annoyingly, a few people regularly reserved beds which then went unused all day. At the end of each day by the pool, we used the on site spa centre's pool, steam room, hot tub and loungers for a couple of hours to relax and unwind before going back to the room. It was a little bit of an extravagance but well worth it. Food at the hotel is great and there was an huge selection of hot and cold food for breakfast and dinner. A nice touch was the availability of Cava to help yourself to breakfast! We didn't try the on site à la carte restaurant 'Los Guayres' but instead wandered into the lovely marina area of Puerto de Mogán where there are some great restaurants - Café de Mogán definitely recommended! There are a couple of bars on the hotel complex and they were all stocked with a good selection of drinks at reasonable rates for a hotel. During the day by the pool, we refilled some plastic glasses with Cava and soft drinks purchased at the Hiperdino supermarket which is just outside the hotel grounds. There is a small fridge in each room to keep drink chilled in. We also made up rolls with ham and cheese at breakfast to keep in the fridge for a light snack at lunchtime when it's too hot to eat a big meal. The charming, relaxed marina and village of Puerto de Mogán and diverse mix of nationalities at the hotel made for a very pleasant experience and hopefully by next year, there will be a new road from Puerto Rico which will eliminate the hair raising trip to the hotel on the coast road. All in all, we had a really great week and would most definitely come back.

Read all the reviews of this hotel well before booking it. Realised that it was good but thought, naturally, it just can't be that good. It was. I would recommend this hotel to anyone in a heartbeat. I have stayed at many 5 star hotels over the years and this 4 star hotel is way up there on the list. Just about the friendliest staff you can find, amazing location, fantastic pool and grounds, so clean and tidy, excellent rooms and good food. Will be returning more than once!

Yes it's as good as the other reviews say. Great hotel. I defy you to find even the smallest piece of litter on site - it's that clean and well looked after. Rooms and food and pool were great. Perfect for a half-term break. We'll be back.

It's difficult to say anything new that hasn't been said before in these reviews, but it really is a fantastic hotel. We were upgraded from a standard room to a south facing junior suite which meant we had an extra hour of sunshine in the late afternoon when it was very pleasant to sit out. The suite was spotlessly clean and the beds not as hard as we had been led to believe from these reviews. The sun loungers were sooo comfy though. People did put towels on to hold them despite being asked not to but we didn't have a problem finding a lounger despite it being half term (our mistake). We booked via Expedia as we could not get a b&b rate from the hotel itself, only half board so I can't comment on the food, but breakfasts were excellent. Cava every day but I managed to restrict myself to one bucks fizz! For lunch we would sit at the lower pool bar, and have a triple decker toasted sandwich for €6.50. Although you have to pay for a room safe (I think ours came to €10 for 4 days) there is an empty fridge in the room so we stocked up on water and wine from the large supermarket across the way. You can also buy bags of ice for a couple of euros which kept solid in the fridge overnight - a good cold fridge not your usual tepid mini bar. There were plenty of glasses in the room, and these were replaced every day so you didn't have to resort to a tooth mug! Do take a travel kettle though. Lovely restaurants at the marina, some better than others. They closed suprisingly early however, we thought it would be later, Spanish style hours but by 10.30pm most places were closing up. This won't be our last visit.

28 Feb, just returned from my 2nd trip to the Cordial Mogan Playa Hotel and will be definitely visiting again. Why? Location, beautiful hotel and good service from friendly staff. The 1st time I went, I was in one of the standard rooms which is fine but the 2nd time I booked a junior suite and loved being in the middle of the gardens. Hotel was also flexible in terms of swapping your HB eve meal for lunch. Yes, it was nice to be greeted with a glass of bubbly and it does really put you in the mood for a lovely holiday. The only negative is nothing to do with the hotel, but that old chestnut of having to be up early if you want a sunbed in the sun... even though there is a note in the room saying you cannot do this! I was there at half term so it was probably at capacity... Because of this, we did spend more days on the beach, but that is also fantastic with lovely restauants closeby. Also, it's very nice to walk around the harbour with many more nice restaurants. If you want, a relaxed holiday, in a pretty port with a good choice of restaurants where you can watch life go by, you will not be disappointed.

this is our 4th year at the cordial mogan and we love it. The rooms are well equiped and comfortable and we have always had rooms with views over the pool. The staff are always on hand and very willing to help with any queries we had. They are friendly and polite. The food is good with plenty of variety at breakfast and dinner and the staff within the restaurant are also very friendly and helpful and quick to please. The hotel grounds and gardens are really good and great for a quiet walk around. The pools are excellent and we spent most of our time around them. They are spacious and easily big enough to swim a reasonable length. The location of the hotel is excellent, it is far enough away from the harbour and beach to be quiet and peaceful yet close enough to walk to. The situation of the hotel is great as it is on a pedestrian area and plenty far enough away from any roads so my 3 year old son can really stretch his legs without any fear of cars. There is a hypermarket close to the hotel so very convenient to pop to and they have a good range of produce available. We really do love this hotel and destination and can not speak highly enough of the great service we receive on arrival and during our stay. We would and do happily recommend this hotel to our friends and family and cannot wait to return there again in May 2011.

Having been to the Canary Islands several times for a bit of winter sun we were not expecting to find a place this good. Both the hotel and resort were delightful. Staff were friendly, helpful and happy. Room was spotlessly clean and well furnished. Restaurants were well organized with an excellent range of food (even sushi!) Bar prices were ok and staff were not pushy. Entertainment was good. Small bowling alley. Tennis courts. Book exchange library. Hotel gardens and pool areas were extremely well kept and very pleasant to use. Free wifi was available in the reception area and worked well. Short walk via the back gate to the lovely harbour with many restaurants and shops. Beach clean. Negatives . . . . . .we can't think of any.

Our third stay at this hotel was an adventure - we have found this a favourite place to find new energy inbetween busy jobs! The garden is a dream , nice rooms, good cleaning quality , delicious breakfast buffet and friendly athmosphere overall! Situaded very close to the charming village of Puerto Mogan - makes it a perfect choice for our needs and expectations for a successful holiday! This year we also did some hiking nearby! Great experience! We will be back!

This hotel is fantastic. Interesting architecture, beautiful lush gardens, great facilities, attentive service and a great choice of food make this a wonderful place to stay. The rooms are spacious and well-maintained and laid out like a small village. Everything is immaculate. In its own complex, but very close to the pretty port of Mogan it has great transport links with frequent buses to other parts of the island.The ferry to Peurto Rico from the harbour is worth taking for a different view of the island. On Friday there is a sprawling market that offers a wide choice of clothing, leather goods and jewellery.

Took us 2 days to get to grips with all the facilities and incredible features of this hotel. Definately would have helped if hotel had given us a tour when we arrived. Had a brilliant room with a sunny garden overlooking the pool . Food generally very good ,an incredible selection, but tended to be a bit of a feeding frenzy at evening meals and felt sorry for the staff who were rushed off their feet. Two fantastic sunny swimming pools ,although seemed to be a lot of selfish individuals who put towels on the best loungers then nipped off to the beach. The pool bar was the only place I got ripped off the whole holiday.This is a really good base with the lovely recreated port 5 minutes walk away,from there boats along the coast. The bus station is even closer.There is a shop in the hotel complex which sells cheaper tours than those advertised in the main foyer.We enjoyed our day trip down the middle of the island, the rum factory was very tasty.Hope this is of some help.Enjoy your holiday.

Having arived in P, Mogan at around 9pm we were met by a very friendly receptionist who first of all asked if we were ok and if we would like a drink from Cava to Fresh orange. We were taken through the whole of the of booking in sytem and asked if we would liketo book in for dinner. The Porter who was so helpful took our luggage to our room and pointed out several areas of interest on the way to our rooms, this guy was an Ambasador for the hotel in my book. The Room was good and clean with only the beds a little HARD for my liking. The Food was excellent and the head waiter took us to our table and e3xpalined how everything worked and treated us like his guests which is very rare. Every member of this Hotel from Pool guy to Manager treated you as there Guests and it was like they had a equity share in the business and like there ultimate goal was to ensure that your stay was as enjoyable as possible. There were 2 pool areas one seemed more for families and the other not so but always really clean and well kept and Towels provided daily for your use and changed as many times as you liked. The Resort is split into 2 areas the Marina and the Beach area and again all excellent and there is ample eating places that do not cost the earth if you can mamage to eat anything after the vast amounts of different foods available in the hotel One place that is worth a mention in my opinion is Caravaggios which is a little italian restaurant in the harbour just up a side st, as the food is absolute excellent and i have eaten all over the counttry and this is some of the best fish i had. In the whole would i reccomend this hotel to you ***YES*** Have a great time when you get there Mr and Mrs Light

Este mes de febrero/2011 pasamos unos días en este hotel, desde que llegas la atención del personal es muy buena, ademas de tener unas instalaciones excelentes,la entrada ya impresiona y continua sorprendiendo sus jardines(una gran variedad de palmeras y plantas tropicales muy bien cuidadas) Las habitaciones estupendas ,limpieza y mobiliario en muy buen estado, la piscina exterior con agua caliente 23º a 26º puedes disfrutarla todo el día, los desayunos y la cena con mucha variedad, el hotel estaba casi lleno pero no da sensación de agobio en sus dependencias , la pena es que lo conocen mas los alemanes y suecos que los españoles, con hoteles como este no trae cuenta desplazarse al Caribe en invierno. Volveremos el año próximo

I echo all the reviews previous to this. The hotel, grounds and food are excellent. We're normally dubious about staying half board and will usually eat out after a day or two but not here - the food was excellent. The little port is very nice but we were content in buying booze in from a supermarket and relaxing in our room watching a film while having a drink or two after dinner. I have to disagree with a previous comment about the pool towels. Between 9am-12 noon you could exchange pool towels with the pool attendant at the pool nearest reception, but you could exchange your towels all day at the watersports office at the pool nearer the back gate. We would sunbathe all day and then swap our towels for fresh ones at about 4pm and take them back to our rooms fresh for the next morning. Having an empty fridge in the room was great. We filled it with wine, beer and water from the supermarket. If you're half board you can swap your evening dinner for lunch if you want. Free wifi in the reception which is reliable and quite fast. Pity it's not also in the rooms. My only criticism is that the beds in the rooms are SO uncomfortable - very hard and very noisy every time you turn over. The sunbeds with their thick padded cushions are more comfortable! The grounds are lovely - very tropical and although there were plenty of children whilst we were there (half term) they were not 'in your face.' It is not a hotel for the 'rough and ready!'

We have just come back (Feb 19th 2011) from our second hyoliday at the hotel. This has become a favourite and is the best hotel we have been to in Gran Canaria over the years. The grounds are beautiful and although it's a big hotel everything is spread out so that a walk around the gardens is like a stroll in the park. There's even a little chapel among the palms! You can even wander down to the 'back-gate' and out into the area just behind the town. With the two pools we have never had a problem finding a lounger. Towel-placing seems to be accepted even though it's naughty, but if you can't beat 'em...join em! The outside areas alone make this hotel a winner. Superb. We avoid half-terms, and enjoy the ' more mature' feel of the guest range during school term-time, which seems to appeal to the predominent visitor-type of the hotel, although there's loads to do for everyone. Aqua-robics and yoga classes, for example, are good and there is the usual gym, tennis courts etc. and a spa which we haven't tried. The staff are great , always friendly and helpful and do everything they can to please. Cleanliness is everything you could wish for, both in your room or in the public areas of the hotel or pool areas. Always a good sign...the loos are immaculate! One suggestion to make to the hotel would be that they look at softer beds...after a few nights it is a bit....'ouch' when you turn over! Especially after a work-out in the pool or gym. Rooms are in differents 'blocks' some are near the reception and top pool, while others are lower down in the quieter tropical garden area. I guess its a preference, or a matter of where the hopel put you. There is a great range of food in the buffet if a bit predictable, and the quality is very acceptable. Breakfast is excellent - a huge choice including Cava and orange juice to drink. But why, oh why, can't Spanish hotels work out what a decent bit of bacon is? We choose half-board but others we have spoken to prefer to go down to Mogan harbour to eat out, there are dozens of reataurants. Mogan isn't for the disco and booze-up brigade. It's quiet and well-behaved just the way we like it. The evening entertainment is OK, shall we say. The resident entertainment leader, (or whatever you call him) this time was a bit noisy and not too professional and didn't read his audience too well, and insisted in playing loud 'bomp,bomp,bomp' chart music to an audience who would have preferred 60's - 80's music at a level to allow them to chat over a drink before the show. Some of the show acts were very good. After the show while the bars were open, most of us seemed to head for the land of nod! No clubbing till 3AM here! Not that we heard, anyway. Drinks were reasonably priced, not far above a decent British pub these days, and lunches, for those honest enough not to knick rolls and ham from breakfast, reasonable, with a toasted sandwich and salad around the 5 Euro mark. Over all a great hotel deserving great praise and we will be back.

Vakantie doorgebracht in dit hotel van 12/2/2010 tot 19/2/2010. Heel verzorgde kamers. Heel gevarieerd ontbijtbuffet; ook bij avondeten voldoende keuze; klein minpuntje is dat warme gerechten niet altijd even warm waren; prijs van de dranken valt heel goed mee; mooie wijnkaart met goede wijnen; voldoende ligbedden en goed aangelegde zwembaden ook voor mensen met minder mobiliteit; barservice sommige dagen wat minder door onderbezetting (wij aten wel pas in late shift van 20u30); goede avondanimatie; hotel goed gelegen en rustig gelegen dicht bij het centrum van Puerto de Mogan. Schitterende tuinen en heel mooi onderhouden infrastructuur.

We loved the privacy of the junior suite with terrace, sunbeds and an enormous garden facing South & West. The hotel was not the usual high rise concrete block but well laid out with different buildings and beautifully kept gardens over a huge area so that it never seemed crowded. All the staff were very friendly & helpful no matter how busy. The a la carte restaurant was excellent (we don't do 'buffet' except at breakfast which was in a separate restaurant for the 'suites', very varied and good quality). Plenty of beach side restaurants within a short walking distance in Puerto Mogan which is still a relatively small village. We preferred this hotel to some of the impersonal 5* hotels we've stayed in & was better value for money. On a cold day (yes it can happen in Feb.) there is no heating in the rooms until 9.00pm which makes showering and changing for dinner very chilly. However when our heating packed in completely we were given 2 oil-filled radiators which were fine!

This is a wonderful oasis in the middle of a rather dull tourist trail. Puerto de Mogàn is charming compared to places like Puerto Rico and Arguineguín, but nevertheless it is prototypically touristy. Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa made our stay a very pleasant one. Fantastic pool areas, lovely gardens and nice food. Our room was large, clean and had a nice patio with chairs and a table. The beds were a bit hard and rickety, but we slept well and had a fantastic week in this paradise.

Stayed in the Cordial playa morgan in sept and can't wait to return,beautiful resort and and marina village with great restaurants.We stayed in a jr suite for one week where you have your own breakfast area which is not as busy as the main area and more relaxed. Great kids club to keep them busy and mini disco. Looking foward to returning in the summer for relaxing break.

We have just returned from a 3 night stay and were delighted with the hotel. All areas, including the extensive gardens are immaculate and, although large, the hotel feels peaceful and relaxing. The staff went well beyond their call of duty to make my birthday (the purpose of our visit) special and generally were extremely courteous and attentive, unlike the guests who, being non-brits, have no respect for queuing!

A lovely hotel in a beautiful setting. Outstanding grounds of mature plants and curving paths with a back door to access glorious Mogan with its lovely harbour, flower-filled streets and multitude of restaurants. The staff were unfailingly courteous and friendly. Outstanding breakfasts with unbelievable variety of choice. Evening meals perhaps not quite as good but still above the standard of most of the other hotels we have visited. It was mildly inconvenient to have two sittings - the first was from 6 pm to 7.30 pm and the second from 8.30 pm to 10 pm. This effectively cut out the choice of eating between 7.30 pm and 8.30 pm which I imagine would be a popular choice for many people. We were allocated a table on our first night which was a nice touch, since it meant there was no hunting for a vacant table each time we went to dinner. I have only two negative comments. The first is the price of drinks at the bar. One does not expect cheap prices at a hotel of this calibre, but nearly 7 euros for an espresso coffee with a shot of grappa is surely a bit excessive. My only real gripe is that the reception area contained two large television screens which remained on (with the sound off) for much of the day and were always on in the evenings. Thus the pianist for the early evening 'piano bar' had to play against the background of a football match, the saxophonist on the next evening had to compete with some kind of ball game and the really amazing classical violinist had to perform against the background of athletic events (see photo). The latter performance was during a 'Manager's cocktail party' and thus the television background was particularly inappropriate and invasive. In an hotel of this size it should be relatively easy to provide a dedicated television room which could cater for those who wish to watch and leave others to enjoy early evening music without an annoying sporting backdrop. This was a great pity since the entertainment offered was of a high standard, unlike the later evening entertainment which can only be described as dire. This apart, I would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel for a relaxing holiday.

Hotellet er flott og det var ingenting og klage på. Ble møtt av hyggelig personale i resepsjonen og servert et glass champagne, mens innsjekkingen foregikk. Fikk hjelp med koffertene og ble vist til et koselig dobbeltrom med en liten terrasse + en liten hage med hekk rundt. Dette gjorde at ingen hadde innsyn. Herlig! Stort hotell med både leiligheter og hotellrom. Vi klarte tilogmed å gå oss bort på området første dagen!! Var en fryd bare å gå rundt på hotellområdet, små stier, vakkert, og utrolig mye flotte kaktuser, blomster og palmer. Flott interiør, rene svømmebasseng med nydelig flora, hyggelig personale som alltid var behjelpelig. Vi hadde kun frokost inkludert og den var det ikke noe å klage på, masse å velge mellom og med gratis champagne. Lunsj og middag spiste vi oftest ute i Mogan, da vi hadde min bror og svigerinne på et hotell nede ved havna. Mogan er et utrolig koselig, rolig sted som passer best for voksne personer som vil nyte ferien. Vær obs på at det ikke er kun første strandpromenaden, gå over brua og ned til havna hvor du finner små smug, masse koselige restauranter og en utrolig blomsterprakt. Kjempekoselig!! Dette er absolutt et sted vi gjerne reiser tilbake til. Det samme gjelder hotellet - ingenting å klage på. Alt var bare helt topp, men hadde kun en uke. Neste gang blir det 14 dagers tur!!

Hotellet er veldig bra.Rask og hyggelig inn/ut-sjekking.Fine rom.Litt harde senger.Store fine bad.Rengjøring daglig. Frokostbuffet med et utrolig variert utvalg.Mye frisk frukt og grønnsaker.Det samme gjelder middagsbuffeten.Anbefaler absolutt halvpensjon med mulighet for rabatt i hotellets gourmetrestaurant. To store oppvarmede bassenger.Gode solsenger.Begrenset meny i bassengbaren. Underholdning på kvelden med variert kvalitet.Ikke levende dansemusikk hver kveld.DJ musikk var tilpasset noe yngre gjester enn de som var tilstede. Spaavdeling med variert tilbud.

Bel hotel, bien situe pres de la plage dans un charmant et petit village de pêcheur. Idéal pour famille, piscines agréables avec aussi des parties moins profondes. Nourriture très correcte et animations le soir pour les enfants. Très bon rapport qualit-prix !

Soggiornato due estati con figlia di 6 anni e amici con figli. Struttura molto curata con splendide piante e fiori curatissimi. Due piscine con idromassaggio centrale e altezza variabile. Ristoranti a self-service con varietà e qualità. Mini-club. piccola palestra. Centro benessere/ massaggi a pagamento. Spettacoli serali. Qualche attività di animazione per adulti. Clientela inglese, tedesca e spagnola. La spiaggia è raggiungibile a piedi in circa un quarto d'ora ma non è particolarmente indicata per bimbi piccoli.

My wife and I had seen the review of the Mogan Playa in the Sunday Times. We booked, more or less, purely on this basis. The hotel was beautiful, the gardens are of botanical garden standard, there were far more sunbeds than people staying and the staff were always helpful and courteous.

From the welcome glass of Cava on arrival in reception, to the efficient and courteous check-in, we knew that everything would be fine with the hotel. The room and it's bathroom, were all we could ask for. A welcome bowl of fruit and bottles of water and one of wine in the room, were unexpected but appreciated. The food in the restaurant couldn't be faulted, both from the variety of choice and the quality, it was excellent. You could even have Cava with your breakfast if you wished. If I were to make an obsevation about the restaurant, it would be that the tables were a bit too close together and you found other guests sqeezing past you as you were eating. The gardens of the hotel are worth a special mention as they really are fantastic! The hotel is ideally located in this quiet fishing village which is not at all touristy. The 'German' cafe/bar (next to the Irish Bar) should be avoided. Mein host(ess) was not at all welcoming and practically ignored us. She nearly fell over in surprise however, when I spoke German to her! The Irish Bar next door is very welcoming and you should try their 'Baileys Cheese Cake'. A great resrt and we'll certainly be back!

Friendly hotel with holiday atmosphere, even if it is quite large. They went a little overboard with the plants in the garden, but that ads to the general feeling. Personel is very helpful. Very good breakfast. The only drawback are the beds, which are much too hard. Playa de Mogan is without a doubt the best place to stay in Gran Canaria, and within a short walk from this hotel.

Excellent service.Très belle situation , jardins magnifiques , remarquablement entretenus , Restauration soignée, bref , tout pour plaire. Si j'en ai l'occasion , j'y retournerai avec plaisirt.

Veldigt fint hotell med supergod frukost. Bassengområderne er veldigt fine og parkern i området er imponerande. Det enda jeg kan klage på er sengerne som i ikke står i samme klass som hotellet.

Hotellet var veldig bra. Meget god mottagelse, nydelig frokost og flotte omgivelser. .Imponerende hage anlegg med mange forskjellige vekster. Balkongen vendte imidlertid helt feil. Nordvendt uten noe utsikt eller fnugg av solstråle. Kan anbefales.

Erholsamer Urlaub in einer TOP Anlage. Absolut weiterempfehlenswert. Der SPA Bereich etwas zu klein, insbesondere die Sauna. Das Reservieren der Pool Liegen ist ein Ärgernis, aber egal wo man hinfährt, das ist wohl überall so.

Rundherum ein sehr gelungener Urlaub, haben uns super erholt, würden gern wieder dieses Hotel wählen. Der einzige Wermutstropfen ist die relativ lange Anfahrtszeit vom Flughaben. Durch die anderen Reisenden, die natürlich zuerst abgesetzt werden, dauert die Fahrt ca. 1,75 Std. (Mit Taxi nur 45 Min.). Sehr zu empfehlen, schon aus dem Grund, daß kein Angebot für all inclusive, damit auch nicht dies übermäßige schlechte Verhalten am Buffett z.B.

Stayed for a week and most impressed.Staff could not do more to be helpful and always with a smile .Food in the buffet of excellent quality and variety - where else are you offered cava for breakfast !! Will return .

Super schönes Hotel und ein toller Urlaub. Immer wieder gerne!

Et flott hotel i fine omgivelser. Meget god service. Flott utendørsanlegg med 2 store varme basseng og mye grønt. Bra restaurant. Gåavstand til idylliske havnen i Puerto Mogan med mange bra restauranter.

Cordial Mogan Playa is an excellent hotel! First impression in the lobby is like one of the luxurous hotels in Dubai. Rooms were nice, clean fesh and cosy with a little extra comfort such as bath robes and bathroom stuff. The surrounding gardens are fantastic, well kept, witha variety of plants (including among others a cactus garden and lots of little notes everywhere of which plant it is). It must be a gardeners dream working there. Pool area is very nice and there are plenty of activities, such as tennis, gym, water gym, water polo, make your own face mask, outdoor chess, pingis, spa and even an archeological site to visit. Hotel area not in the sun until 10 am, which actually was very nice if you want to start the day with physical activities. Not too impressive kids club (more like baby care), but we where not looking for that. All service staff are very friendly, without being pushy (i.e. not looking like they expect a tip for everything). There was a small back door that quickly led us down to the Mogan beach and the village of Mogan. A very nice breakfast included. We tried the dinner buffet also, but I would not consider it worth the money. Better to take a stroll down to the harbour where there a lots of nice restaurants. The only downside is that you could only book 2+1 people in a suite. Would have been easy to fit in an extra bed also in the bedroom to fit a family of 2+2. And that the beds were very hard, but that has always been the case when I have been to Spain, maybe they like it that way.

What makes this hotel unique is the amount of effort, thought, and money invested into the gardens separating the various buildings of the hotel, described in their brochure as; "Luxurious botanic garden distributed over a surface of 48,000 square meters with over 200 species of subtropical plants." The plants global originations are carefully labelled and their size and quality are magnificent. I particularly liked the cactus garden. Service is friendly and well managed for a hotel that can accomodate approx 1000 guests. The Los Guyares Restaurant is highly recommended for those, like myself, who prefer a full service restaurant with a larger wine list and a grand cru glas to the self service buffet, which had a very wide choice of fare. The hotel was full during our visit, creating slightly overcrowded conditions around the pools, but no problem for swimming due to the large size of the major pool. Direct access from the hotel to a pedestrian 5 minute walk to the very attractive Puerta Mogan fishing village, and marina, with its 50 boutique restaurants and bars was a major plus. Internet access with wifi was limited to the lobby and surrounding area. The weather at the end of Dec. during our stay was ideal, 20 to 24 0 C during the day, and warm enough to dine outdoors during the evening if one wished, but a little fresh for breakfast outside, although many people chose this option. Many Europeans will now be choosing destinations like Gran Canaria for a winter break, motivated by the volatile climate change weather conditions to the north. We intend taking a much longer break next winter in the Canary Islands in preference to the tropics or the american continent, because of the attractive climate, beauty of the Islands, relatively short flight (4 hours) ,great infrastructure, and the increasing problems elsewhere in the world.

Re: Hotel Cordial Mogan 04 enero 2011, 15:35 He pasado las navidades en el Cordial Mogán playa, es un hotel precioso en su entorno interior está rodeado de multidud de plantas, palmeras cactus etc. se podría decir que es un jardín botánico, tiene tres piscinas exteriores climatizadas varios restaurantes, un pequeño spa, pero muy completo, es muy tranquilo, para los niños tienen animadoras, que les mantienen entretenidos, el buffet ha estado muy bien, por las noches había animación variada todos los días, no tengo nada de que quejarme la atención ha sido exquisita, quisiera resaltar a Dani, muy atento al llegar Miguel Rodríguez,recepción, en el comedor Reduan, Moises, y las srtas Giselle y Mari Carmen muy contenta volveremos http://www.tripadvisor.es/ShowTopic-g664857-i12295-k4072157-Hotel_Cordial_Mogan-Puerto_de_Mogan_Grand_Canary_Canary_Islands.html

Our first Xmas away and we wanted it to be Special,Enjoyable and Relaxing. As we walked into the amazing Atrium and were handed a Glass of Cava each as we checked in we new we had made the right choice.We were told to relax and when we were ready they would take us and our luggage to our room. As i am prone to bleat on i shall try and summarise everything. The whole hotel is spotlessly clean. The two pool(heated) areas are lovely as are the surrounding gardens.The pool beds are incredibly comfy. The way the hotel has been layed out it feels that you are in a smaller hotel than you actually are. The rooms are of a good size and are well equipped and we had a nice balcony view of the top pool.The beds are comfortable(a little hard some may find) and you can choose a different pillow if required with room service(small charge i think).Rooms have an empty fridge which is handy as there are shops opposite the hotel.The rooms also have a safe but you have to rent this(I wise hotels would just include this in there room rates). The restaurant/buffet room is nicely decorated and tables layed out well. Food was of excellent quality and we found the choice to be mesmerizing.Fresh Fish and Meat was grilled to your liking and was very tasty.I stayed away from the pasta's etc and ate mostly spanish style food which was all good especially the hams and cheeses. Breakfast was equally as good apart from one morning when i moved away from all the fresh fruit ,hams,cheeses,and lovely Breads and attempted to construct a Full English.Frankfuters and streaky bacon just does not do it for me :-) Plates are removed the instant you finish your food which we found to be efficient rather than pushy and at no point did we feel we had out stayed are welcome at our table. Evening hotel entertainment is Hmmm evening entertainment at the hotel.Nufff said on that !!! If you are half board you can swap Dinner for lunch and spend the Evening out in lovely Puerto Mogan which has lots of restaurants and nice bars to sit and watch harbour life. This is a lovely friendly hotel in a great resort. Last mention goes to the staff as they work very hard indeed to make sure you want for nothing on your holiday and every day they give you a friendly smile and a Hola.Thank You.We really appreciated it. Sorry i do go on a bit !!!!

We picked this hotel based on our travel agent and trip advisor and we're not disappointed. We stayed in a junior suit which is located at the back of the complex. This was good as we could use the back gate to pop into the delightful town of mogan. The room was very clean and modern with a great balcony. Only complaint would be thin walls as we could hear the person in the next room snoring quite loudly. Food has been much debated in the reviews. Personally we really enjoyed it, there was always something lovely hiding in some corner of the restaurant. The fish deserves a special mention as it was outstanding. If it's not to you're liking there must be close to 50 restaurants within 10 minutes walk so food shouldn't be an issue. Pool area was superb, we never had any issues trying to get a sunbed and it was quiet enough to sleep/read all day without being disturbed. On a side note make sure you try the submarine trip off the harbour in mogan, £28 each but it's fantastic and takes you down to a sunken ship! Overall a fantastic holiday which has everything you could want for a week in the sun at a sensible price. We'll be back next year.

We had two wonderful weeks at the Cordial Mogan Playa in August 2010. Sorry for delay in writing review. Arrived late and the helpful receptionists took our luggage and took us straight down to the restaurant to eat,and told us to check in after we had eaten. You are allocated a table for evening meal, for the duration of the holiday, we were very happy with our round table in the main part of the restaurant. Fantastic selection of food at both breakfast and evening meal. I had emailed the hotel to request two rooms next to each other on a high floor, with a pool view, and got exactly that. Rooms are very spacious, we had three in one room with no problem at all. We used the fridge in room free of charge, to put drinks in from supermarket. Housekeeping excellent, rooms and all public areas very clean.We ran out of shower gel in the bathroom and when I mentioned it to reception, it was replaced within 15mins. I hadnt even asked them to replace it. Every member of staff we spoke to had a smile, and the hotel had a relaxed atmosphere. The pool area was beautiful and we didnt have to fight for sunbeds after breakfast which was a refreshing change with five of us. The only negative thing I can say about this hotel is that the quality of the evening entertainment is very poor. We saw most of the shows as we liked to sit and have a drink after our meal in that area and although one or two could be rated as good the majority were poor and unprofessional.They did give us a laugh but not sure that was the intention! Mogan is a pretty little place, we enjoyed strolling round in the evenings and had lunch a few times in different restaurants and my daughter and I loved the market days. We thought the beach was a bit small and crowded but that wasnt a problem as the hotels facilities were so good, we were happy to stay there. Overall a quality hotel that we would like to visit again.

I chose this hotel due to the great rating it has on TripAdvisor but I was surprised by how friendly everybody was at the hotel. From the reception desk people to the waiters in the restaurant to the barman, everybody was pleasant and helpful. The hotel itself is in a small town at the bottom of the Canary islands. The town itself is "quaint" with a beautiful port and a small beach with loads of restaurants. This is the perfect place to go and stay, since the disadvantage of this hotel is that it's far to do sightseeing since it's an hour and a bit from the capital city. The hotel has beautiful gardens, two nice pools, the food is good for a buffet and on New Years Eve they had a fantastic dinner with lobster and filet mignon and a a dance and fireworks. It was great and we were all impressed. The rooms were fine. They were large, there was a table and chairs outside on the balcony, they were clean. The only complaint here was that for older people the bathtub was a bit dangerous and they didn't have rooms that just had a shower, which would have been safer for people with mobility problems. They could also have had more pillows. I would highly recommend this hotel.

We (Mum 60 y/o and daughter 35 y/o) had the pleasure of spending 4 nights in this lovely resort during X-mas 2010. We wished we could have stayed longer! PROS - Free parking: in a locked garage for our rental car. - Check-in: It is very nice to be greeted with a glass of Cava, orange juice or water. - The property and the facilities: Great pool areas, very comfortable sun beds, and extremely clean everywhere. Very well maintained! - Pool towels: free. - The room: Our room and bathroom were also very clean. There was an empty fridge, which is handy to fill up with water bottles and soft drinks from the store. - Service: Smiling and helpful staff everwhere. - Wi-fi: free and available in the reception area and in areas nearby, sometimes also available on our balcony. - Buffet breakfast: Best ever, lots to choose both hot and cold and freshly prepared and Cava to drink. - Location: Puerto Mogan is a lovely town with cozy restaurants/cafés and nice beach. - Quiet: This is not a party resort, it is very quiet at night and you can easily sleep with your balcony door open. - Managers cocktail party: They offer a free glass of Cava or Sangria. CONS: - The beds are not comfortable (too hard), and the plastic cover protecting the mattress is making annoying noise when you move. After 1 night we removed the cover so we did not wake each other up every time we turned in the bed. - The buffet dinner at night at 40 EUR/pers was not value for money on X-mas eve, especially not compared to the buffet breakfast. - Wi-fi: only available in limited areas. - The lunch offered in the outside restaurant by the pool was tasteless and not value for money. Much better to stroll down to the harbor and have lunch there - TV: the old type, the management should consider upgrading to flat screens. If you would like proper coffee for breakfast, use the coffee machine at the drink station. The coffee offered by the table taste like instant coffee.

Excelente establecimiento hotelero con todos los detalles y un gusto refinado para la decoración. A más de uno le puede resultar extravagante la recepción, pero puede ser por la majestuosidad inesperada si, no has visto las fotos en la página web. Es un Hotel en el que desde que entras te sientes perfectamente atendido. Dispone de todos los servicios propios de un cuatro estrellas superior y algunos de 5 estrellas. El personal es amabilísimo. Los jardines son espectaculares y perfectamente cuidados, por momentos parece que estés en medio de la selva, con cascadas y una vegetación exuberante. Los edificios tienen en su interior patios ajardinados, la mayoría con fuentes. Nosotros estuvimos alojados en una suite y nos hacían la habitación 2 veces al día. El desayuno nos lo servían en un restaurante independiente del de la cena y la comida en ambos casos era variada y exquisita. Ciertamente fue un acierto la elección y merece la pena ir hasta Puerto de Mogán aunque sólo sea por alojarse en este hotel. No le encuentro nada mejorable a este hotel, bueno quizás la piedra triturada que rodea la piscina que, hace incómodo ir descalzo.

This was our second trip to Mogan, last Christmas we stayed at the Mogan Valle, and after going in for a drink at the Playa we decided to try this hotel for Christmas this year. The hotel did not disappoint in any way. Due to the problems with the weather in England we did have a substantial delay flying out from Gatwick but that did not in any way upset our holiday. On arrival at the hotel (at 2am) we were booked in quickly and offered either sparkling wine, fresh juice or water which was very welcome. Check in was quick and efficient and our bags taken directly to our room. Our room was well equipped, comfortable and very clean. There was also a bowl of fruit and a bottle of wine and chocolates. Breakfast and evening meals were of a very high standard, there was something for everyone (even the fussy eaters) in fact there was so much selection it was difficulty to decide what to eat, and a glass of sparkling wine with breakfast!! The other thing that was good was that all the meat and fish were kept well away from each other (a good thing if you have a seafood allergy as I do). We chose the later dinner option on the outside terrace. The wine selection was varied and of good quality. We did treat ourselves to a meal in the other restaurant, well worth a visit, the food was of a very high standard. The pool area was always very clean, (thankfully not many people seemed to be smoking) and the swimming pool was never over crowded, there were a few people who were reserving sunbeds to get the best place but there were always sunbeds available. We had a massage on Christmas eve, if you don't like a 'deep' massage ask for a gentle one otherwise it is quite painful. The spa & wellness center was very clean and well equipped. The staff were excellent, we did have a problem with our safe but the problem was rectified within 15 minutes. We also asked if we could have a look at one of the 'suites', no problem, we were given a key to look at the room. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the staff were very friendly and efficient, the food was excellent and we came home thoroughly relaxed. I have already asked my husband if I can book for Christmas 2011.

Chose to go away for a quick week in the sun. Last visited Puerto Mogan 15 years previously on a day trip and thought we would give it a try as it was such a pretty and peaceful place. Decided to stay at Cordial Mogan Playa Hotel. What a wonderful choice. From the welcome glass of bubbly on arrival and a very easy check in. The food was excellent, how much food can you manage to eat at breakfast? For dinner we chose the second sitting and found this very relaxing and enjoyable, again masses of very good food. Did not try the A La Carte as we could not fault the main restaurant. Our room was excellent, the gardens were a pleasure to behold. The only problem I found was trying to find the back gate out of the hotel through the gardens as this was a more pleasurable walk than walking down the promenade. The staff were also excellent, I could not fault them. Some people say that Puerto Mogan is too quiet and no discos at night. If you want a noisy resort there are plenty of other places on the island. Have booked to go again in March 2011. Whoopee!!

Went to CMP on Oct 1st 2010 for one week Half board, On arrival, at Midnight, we were greeted by a lovely lady on reception who welcomed us and made us fresh orange juice which was very needed, and explained we were too late for evening meal but would we want a packed lunch, we did, and it was, like the orange, well needed. This hotel is a very high quality hotel and the staff are brilliant. The weather was amazing first week in Oct, very very hot, the pools were very crowded but not really a problem. Puerto De Mogan itself is not very big and is pretty quiet, A few shops and resturants at the sea front. Its ideal for couples & elderly people. Our room had its own sun terrace and seperate balcony, with lovely views of Mogan and the mountain at the sides. I would reccomend and will certainly be returning.

We spent 4 nights here in early November as a brief escape to find the sun. We booked direct with Cordial, and then made our own hire car and Easyjet flight bookings and we were very pleased with our choice. Puerto de Mogan itself was definitely the most attractive resort we visited, having made the most of our hire car to explore the island. The hotel is set a little bit back from the small beach and harbour (5 mins walk from the hotel grounds to the waterfront) and is framed by the mountains behind. We really enjoyed the seafood restaurants by the marina, La Cofradia de Pescadores around the fishing harbour, and also Que Tal between marina and fishing harbour (see our separate review). We took the ferry from the marina to Puerto Rico (These run at least hourly, costing about 8 euros). Nice to be out on a boat with sea breeze, but we weren't impressed by that resort. We also enjoyed some spectacular drives through the mountains and gorges to the north and north east of Mogan. Maspalomas dunes were again worth the visit though we found parking to be a problem and had to walk some distance to them along the seafront to get to the dunes. Camel ride was good fun, but again a walk inland from the dunes to the starting point. As for the hotel, we had not complaints. Pool areas were attractive and room was very comfortable. Only slight niggle was having to pay to use the room safe. Coin operated internet access can be found in the room above reception - very quiet with a library too. The breakfast buffet had an incredibly wide range of choices, though our least favourite counter was the hot food section where the items were always just luke warm, unless you queued for eggs/omelettes. Given the number of food stations, this did tend to make the experience a bit manic - the tables were full and people criss-crossing continuously from one option to another. We didn't try the lunch or dinner service as we preferred to eat out. The rest of the hotel was incredibly quiet, considering we were told it was fully booked. Great if you are after peace and quiet. The bars and entertainment area were dead quiet and thus lacked atmosphere so this is definitely not a hotel for party animals! Overall, we had a really enjoyable and relaxing break in the sun and the weather was gorgeous throughout.

My husband and I stayed here for 6 nights. The hotel was big and colorful;-) The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and clean with comfortable bed. Also the bathroom was very clean. I enjoyed playing tennis (just in the evening). My husband enjoyed fresh food in the restaurant with amazing service. The atmosphere was great and people were smiling all the time:-)

Das Rundumsorglospaket- bereits der Einstieg und Empfang mit Champagner und Gepäckservice überzeugte. Auch die Sauberkeit im Hotel und in der gesamten Anlage waren absolut überzeugend. Die Gartenanlage ist eine Augenweide. Poollandschaft sehr angenehm. Kinderanimation mit Miniclub und Minidisco haben unserer 5 jährigen sehr gefallen. Der Spaziergang zum Strand ist angenehm und auch nicht zu weit. Das Essen überzeugt ebenfalls durch Qualität und Verwendung von sehr frischen Speisen, jeden Abend ein anderes Motto. Auch der Service im Restaurant ist sehr zuvor kommend und schnell. Für uns wars absolut perfekt.

nous avons été incroyablement surpris par le luxe de cet hotel qui a tout d'un cinq étoiles excepté la literie ( on avait l'impression de dormir sur un plancher) Clientèle à majorité scandinave à cette époque de l'année ,pas de francophones mais cela ne nous a pas dérangé vu que le personnel de la réception se débrouillait en francais. La restauration était nickel,les vins de qualité et le restaurant de spécialités de 1er ordre.Les spectacles en soirée étaient variés et de bon gout.De plus ,la proximité du petit port de Mogan nous convenait à ravir (on le surnomme"le ptit venise") Aconseiller vivement

In many years we have only returned to the same hotel abroad on two occasions - this is one of them, the first visit being January 2009, and I wrote a long favourable review then. Happily we found the hotel, as before, to be excellent in all areas. There was an astounding choice of food in the buffet restaurant, which was of a high quality. The clientele derived mainly from Scandinavia and Germany, and ,expecting high standards, were not disappointed. If you fancy caviar and sparkling white wine for breakfast, you will not be disappointed. I liked pumping delicious honey from a machine onto my cereals, adding some fruit and prunes, then cold milk. Omelettes and fried eggs were freshly cooked while you wait. There were many types of bread, and I preferred slicing my own wholemeal loaf, but there were many types of rolls. If the coffee supplied to the table is not to your liking, there is a machine where espresso, cappucino or chocolate may be obtained. There are activities in the is an animation programme at the hotel, including free tasters at scuba diving. This time I ventured up the 224 steps to a local viewing point halfway up the hillside near the boat repair yard. This is not signposted, but head for the alleyway of the Conchas. Afterwards I walked around the seaward side of the fishing harbour to go for a trip on the yellow submarine. Allow the prebooked coach parties to go on board, and there will usually be a few spare seats (28 euros). You descend about 21 metres to a wreck outside the harbour and see quite big shoals of fish. The hotel activities are now all located near the children's pool, leaving the upper pool quiet for those relaxing with books or crossword puzzles. This time we went on a hotel tour, exploring the service tunnels under the huge area of the hotel's 48000 sq. metres. A fascinating experience. Next time we hope to do a guided guarden tour. Also, try the a la carte Guayres restaurant for an unforgettable meal with atmosphere. The evening buffets abound with choice, with steaks, chops, and several varieties of resh fish being cooked specially for you.

I can't praise this hotel enough, from the moment you enter and are welcomed by the smiling, courteous reception staff, This hotel was rated highly by other guests and now we know why! The variety of food on offer at Breakfast and Evening Dinner was astounding, Champagne at Breakfast(for those that like it) to freshly cooked Steaks, meat and fish, all types of food on buffet bars sited all around the vast dining area. My wife being a Vegetarian was not disappointed. Not a place for the weak minded, I could not show restraint when I saw the food on offer, choice?..well..it's like xmas! For us, the Hotel was the best part of the holiday. Decor throughout is very attractive and the lush vegetation and water features are exquisite. The camera was clicking. Beautiful swimming pools, comfortable sunbeds, Temperature around 26*C and Sunny. Gran Canaria is not a place we would normally choose, having spoken to many returning visitors it appears that Porto Mogan is by far the nicest part of the island, we personally had a very nice time there. ....Now if I was to criticise any part of the Hotel it would be the nightly shows. The first two nights were very pleasant, however, things went downhill a little with the Magic show and the other entertainment the rest of the week. You don't have to attend and watch and so we decided to sit with drinks at the upstairs bar with friends we met whilst there. This would be a good time to be WARNED about the measuring of the spirits....you like a drink? be prepared for a LARGER than large measure...no measuring vessels here. Finally, we booked on a trip of the 'Island Delights' with Thompsons Rep... forget it, expensive for a ride in a minibus up and down winding roads with nothing really exciting to see. Porto Rico--forget it, unless you like hassle to buy this -buy that on the street by mainly other English toouts..etc..etc. Well, that's my personal view, hope you enjoy the Hotel and Marina as much as we did.

War sehr schön, ruhig und erholsam!

Das Hotel ist wirklich wunderschön in der Bucht von Puerto de Mogan gelegen. Tolle Anlage, schöne Pools, besonders abends wirkt die Kulisse der Berge noch mehr. Der Service der Mitarbeiter ist schwer zu toppen: immer freundlich, kompetent, einfach klasse. Der Check in wird mit einem Glas Sekt versüßt, später kommt etwas Mineralwasser, ein Früchtekorb udn eine Flache Wein aufs Zimmer. Beim 1. Abendessen wird man an seinen Tisch geführt, das Essen ist sehr gut und Abwechslungsreich, es gibt neben dem normalen Essen noch Themenabende. Einzig der Wellnessbereich ist etwas klein, da kenne ich andere Hotels, wir hatten aber nicht mehr erwartet. Schön auch der kleine Hafenort selber, lädt zum bummeln ein. Wer hier Party machen will ist definitiv falsch hier, ein gemütliches entspannen ist aber fast nirgendwo besser möglich.

All the excellent reports that had been posted by fellow Trip Advisor members proved to be the deciding factor in me booking this holiday. I haven't posted photos as there are hundreds on here already. We booked the holiday with Jet2 who didn't have a representative visiting the accommodation. Not that this was an issue as we were left to our own devices for the duration of our stay. Had there been one however, we would certainly have mentioned the tortuous journey from the airport to the hotel. The flight arrived on time thanks to our pilot who made up the half hour delay in leaving Manchester. We then set off on an epic journey that zig zagged all over the place dropping off 2 passengers at a time which took two and a quarter hours. We were told it's just 45 minutes by taxi so we'll definitely be exploring that option when we next return. In fact, one of the penultimate passengers prior to disembarking from the coach at the Cordial Mogan Valle next to our hotel asked the driver (no rep present) if the next stop was for diesel! Bizarrely, we had to ring Holiday Taxis, who handled our transfer, to confirm that we required to be picked up from the hotel and returned to the airport - quite extraordinary. I've never experienced such a thing in many years of travel. We were greeted at reception at 21:50 with a complimentary glass of Cava and the good news that the restaurant closed at 22:00 and that we wouldn't be dining there that evening. One of our fellow travellers elected to book room service which I understand was not memorable. Reception advised us that we could transfer the loss of our evening meal to one at lunchtime, which we took on our final day. We repaired to the bar and had a jug of Sangria before retiring for the day. Our room was spotless and comfortable. The display at breakfast was staggering and we were truly spoilt for choice - you name it and it was there. We were impressed. The only negative being that due to the number of guests at the hotel (90% full), a number of pots of coffee were on stand-by next to the entrance which meant it wasn't always hot when you got it. Complimentary Cava was again offered at breakfast but was on the wine list in the restaurant for around 17 Euros so I can't imagine there being many takers for that in the evening. The essential water was for sale in the small shop in reception at 1 Euro for a 5 litre bottle. There's an activities board on the stairs leading to the restaurant which offered a tour of the hotel. We thought this was a good idea to help us get our bearings, but little did we know that we'd be taken "below stairs" to see how the hotel functions in every department. This has got to be a first and we were impressed that the management felt confident to allow us to see everything. With this knowledge, we both feel happy enough to return next October for some late sun. The 14 day forecast temperature wise for the end of October was well wide of the mark with cloudless skies and days in the mid thirties being the norm. http://www.zoover.co.uk/spain/gran-canaria/puerto-de-mogan-mogan/weather On arrival, we elected to go for the first dinner sitting of 18:00 to 19:30 but found ourselves going to dinner nearer to seven o'clock as quite often, the breakfast had carried us through the day and needing only a light lunch to put us on. Dinner was as equally impressive as breakfast with chefs on hand to cook your meat and fish to order as well as ready cooked items. My initial selection from the wine list was an excellent bottle and one that we enjoyed. However, it was disappointing to find the same bottle in the Hyper Dino supermarket in the Mogan shopping centre close by considerably less i.e. 400% less! The purpose of our stay was very much for rest and relaxation and that's exactly what we got, with my good lady polishing off 4 books during our week long stay. There is every possibility that this could become a regular haunt for our final holiday of the year. The hotel attracted guests from many nations with a healthy Scandinavian contingent. The return journey to the airport took a shade over an hour in a wreck of a minibus carrying the Thomson name with no working air-con and it was well into the 30's outside. Again no rep to accompany us and the driver spoke no English. We concluded that he may have been a retired Formula 1 driver!

We chose this hotel because of the mainly excellent reviews on Trip Advisor. We were not disappointed. We loved everything about the hotel, especially the location. Having visited other parts of Gran Canaria, we felt Puerto de Mogan was probably one of the best. It is a small fishing village which has retained its Spanish identity as the locals mingle with the tourists. We liked the fact that there were a variety of nationalities in the hotel and resort. There are a large variety of restaurants and shops and there are water sports and ferries available at the local beach (all within walking distance of the hotel). Puerto de Mogan is only about a 45 minute drive from the airport which is mostly motorway (currently being extended all the way to the resort) The hotel is organised in nine different buildings amidst beautiful gardens which gives a real feeling of space as well as being very quiet. It has excellent amenities including a spacious car park. The rooms are well furnished and spacious with an ample sized balcony. The public areas are all beautifully laid out and spacious. Everywhere was immaculately kept and spotlessly clean. The food choice and quality of food was excellent both at breakfast and in the evening with quite a selection being freshly cooked to order. Although it was a buffet service, there is an A La carte Restaurant also on site. We felt the half board was very good value for money. Although the Entertainment Team worked very hard both in the daytime and in the evenings, we felt that they were not particularly skilled. However, some professional acts brought in in the evenings were very good. All the staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful, especially those on the Reception who worked so hard to help us when we found we had lost our car key just as we were about to leave for the airport!! We only had one little niggle. Although the hotel clearly states that it does not permit the reservation of sun beds, this does happen. Many of the sunbeds have towels on early in the morning and we saw two couples completely dominating two large areas every day. This makes it a little difficult to find a space when you have been out for the day and just want a couple of hours in the sun before it disappears behind the buildings. This is only a small niggle though. Overall, this was the best hotel we have found for a long time and we really loved the location so we will almost certainly be returning. Thank you Trip Advisor for helping us to find it!

The Cordial Mogan Playa is an outstanding hotel in one of the nicest resorts in Gran Canaria - plus also free parking(in an undergound carpark) which these days is becoming a big bonus. However as it is more like a self-contained Canarian village itself, you would be quite happy never even leaving the hotel to discover just how nice the surrounding area and Puerto Mogan are. We actually had to force ourselves out - we were so content at this luxurious hotel as it seemed were all the other guests who walked around with wide grins on their faces. BLISS! We had champagne on check-in and as we were celebrating a personal event we were very touched by the lovely note and gifts awaiting us in the room - as well as the absolutely fantastic room itself. We were on the top floor, overlooking one of the pools with a balcony and sun terrace with our own sun loungers - we were in heaven! We got a great deal with hotels4u, can't remember the exact cost but we did a cost comparison with travelsupermarket.co.uk and got this deal which was a lot cheaper than other firms. We were delighed that we had opted for half board as the food was simply excellent - so much choice that the only problem was our rapidly expanding waitlines. Every night was different and they had fabuous fresh fish like tuna and swordfish as well as many meat and vegetable dishes. Desserts were great also including a chocolate fountain -FANTASTIC! Breakfast was even more spectacular and the most sumptuous breakfast buffet I have ever seen. There were fruit smoothies, unusual fruit juice options like peach, hot chocolate, cappucino, waffles, omellettes, cold fish, cheeses, churos, fruits, pasteries, breads, cakes, meats, typical full breakfast in fact everything you could think of and then so ,much more. The lush tropical and cacti gardens were fabulous, so many ammenities including even the archeological section where you can examine old remains and explore a historical site and also get an interesting walk too. There is also a dive centre, table tennis, tennis, 12 pin bowling, spa, giant chess and so much more. We hired a car and explored the mountains which were magical and unspoilt though as I mentioned before the hotel offers so much it really could be anywhere in the world that had nice weather and you would be happy just to wander the huge grounds and enjoy the many excellent facilities and delicious food. Staff were also really superb in the restaurant, so friendly and even the manager made time to have a special word with us as we wanted to tell him in person what an amazing time we had had and how impressed we were with this outstanding luxury hotel. It has to be our most spectacular and luxurious sun hotel ever and we simply did not want to leave our Island Paradise ,,, ever!! What can you say about the hotel that has it all includeing year round sunshine other than you have to go and see it for yourself - you won't be disappointed!!

Most has been said about this hotel, in our view this hotel met our expectations. My wife and I work full time, and wanted a weeks holiday of relaxation, and that's what we got at the Mogan Playa. We pre-booked our Limo (brand new black Merc) for the airport transfer, las-palmas-24.com and select Airport Transfers. They were fantastic both ways, 60 euros each way. We booked with First Choice, we asked for a high floor room (standard room) over looking the quite pool area, the other pool has the kids !! quite close to reception, and to be fair that's what we were given. The room was fine, to singles pushed together, we found the beds slightly hard, but ok. The balcony was very private, and was perfect for our pre-meal G&T's ! watching the sun go down. There are two sittings for dinner 6.00 - 7.30 and 8.30 - 10.00pm we chose the early one going down at 7.00ish and staying there until 8.00pm, that was best for us, the food was fine, although the wine was a bit pricey, still your on your hols !! Nice walk from the hotel down to the Marina/ Beach, with plenty of bars, shops, etc, just right after your meal. We were happy to chill out around the pool area at the hotel, which we found very pleasant. We had no trouble with sun beds, if anybody were reserving the beds with towels it was the Brits ! We found all the staff very helpful and friendly. All in all we had a great time staying at the Mogan Playa, total relaxation "Perfect for us"

Stayed here for a week at half-term and loved it! Welcome glass of Cava or juice was a lovely welcome. Room was spacious, especially bathroom, and spotlessly clean. We overlooked the smaller pool nearer reception, perfect place, not far from anything but still quiet. Pool area gorgeous with thick mattresses on loungers and always some available. Staff all very pleasant and helpful, especially in reception bar. Food was amazing for buffet style, something different every morning and night but still all the usual favourites. Chocolate fountain appeared a couple of times and was very popular! Enjoyed the Manager's Cocktail Party on the Friday, free drinks and live music. Only slight gripe was that the pool bar was open late on the first night with live music, but always shut around 6 the rest of the week, shame as lovely place for nightcap. Also a kettle in room would have been nice, but fridge made up for it. One tip; 5 litre bottle of water was slightly cheaper in hotel gift shop than supermarket across road! Puerto Mogan beautiful place, quiet at nights but we wanted relaxing holiday. Much nicer than Puerto Rico, which is Chavland to say the least!

Excellent hotel...very beautiful garden.... Variery of garden is quite big so that you can discover every day a new place to walk.....the suite are very big (don't know about classical rooms)....very well maintained....Service is excellent and every employees are very attentive, kind and sympatic....Global feeling of calm (Cozy)..... 5 min to go to the see.... from what I've seen, Puerto de Mogan is for sure the more beautiful village..... If we compare with others places/hotel we've seen in Maspalomas or Taurito or....where you will mainly find big hotels made of concrete on the rock without any charm (like Benidorm or Rosas,..) , this hotel is for sure the best to go.

Overall: A great quality hotel in a good location and we would definitely return for Los Guayres alone (see Food). About us: English couple, 40s, looking for somewhere quiet and warm, 30th October - 6th November 2010. We booked with Portland and stayed half board. Location: During the 90 minutes bus transfer from the airport you'll be getting worried as you pass through the other resorts. Thankfully most of the other passengers will be deposited at these McDonalds-clad hell-holes and you'll be whisked round the side of the mountain into the infinitely more pleasant resort of Puerto Mogan. The hotel is situated at the foot of the hills with an easy 10 minutes walk to the port. The port is known locally as Little Venice but in truth it's more like Little Blackpool. It's not to my taste (sun beds on the beach, characterful buildings spoiled with the frontage of cheap restaurants and bars) but nonetheless a vast improvement on the larger resorts. Don't bother with the Friday market: it's the same junk you'll find at your local car boot. There is an adequate Hiper Dino store within yards of the hotel where you'll find pretty much everything you'll need, with the exception of a smile from the surly staff. There is also a Spar on the way down to the port. A new, partially let shopping centre stands opposite the hotel. The area also has abandoned developments but these are screened at street level and do not detract too much from the otherwise stunning view to the mountains from the hotel. Trips: We have been to the island previously and didn't feel the need to leave the resort. There is a zig zagging road up the hill opposite the hotel which leads to a narrow ridge along which you can walk to the transmitters above the port. Allow 90 minutes, take a phone and water. Hotel facilities: The hotel was built in 2004. It is modern but definitely not tacky. It is quite big (I believe about 500 rooms). The main building is very well designed and has several interesting features, including a stained glass dome and man-made cave (it's more tasteful than it sounds). There is free wifi throughout the public areas which has only low bandwidth but is sufficient for writing Tripadvisor reviews on my iPhone. There is a free gym, a bowling alley (€4/game), spa, tennis and other activities. Most of the activities are located at or around the "blue building". Grounds: The gardens are interesting and very well maintained. There is an unusual archaeological feature (an ancient graveyard) in the grounds and a well-hidden, card-operated exit behind the chapel, which provides a shortcut down to the port. Food: Breakfast and dinner are the typical canteen style buffets. If you enjoy having plates shoved in your ribs and tripping over abandoned toddlers then you won't be disappointed. A particular problem here is that although the food is good, it is only lukewarm and the plates are cold. At breakfast get your own coffee from the machine (near the juices) as this is much better than the jugs they put on your table BUT READ ON. The hotel also has an a la carte restaurant (Los Guayres) which provides exceptionally high quality food and service. IF YOU DO NOTHING ELSE ON THIS HOLIDAY GO TO THIS RESTAURANT. It is open Tuesday-Saturday but needs to be booked at reception. If you would like an outside table (who wouldn't?) make sure you ask reception to write this on your reservation. You will receive a €15 per person discount on your bill and (contrary to what the rep told us) this is valid each day of your stay. We have eaten there every day that it has been open and have typically paid €30 for the two of us after discount. For lunch there are poolside bars. However we have preferred to get bread, ham, bottled beer, etc. from Hiper Dino and eat on the balcony. Room: The room is very comfortable, clean and has plenty of wardrobe space. There is a mini fridge for your own drinks, air con and a TV. Before we arrived we requested a quiet room on a high floor and they obliged. There is a safe in the room. This was free, although the rep said there was a €2.60/day charge. Pools: There are two pools: the one near the main building is much quieter than the one near the blue building. The usual problem of morons with towels applies but there are pool men around who will change your towels and move the beds to wherever you want them. The mattresses on the sun beds are very comfortable. Entertainment: There is an act each evening in the downstairs function room. I don't think they are very high quality acts but that doesn't really bother us We have been to only one (a Chinese act). I felt sorry for them because there were only a couple of dozen in the audience. There is a piano in the reception lounge bar. This is often set to play automatically rather than by a pianist. Guests: I would estimate that 90% of the guests are German, with a few English and Spanish. On the whole this is better than a hotel full of loutish English but there are some cultural differences that will possibly irritate you over time. As our children are now grown we often go on child-free holidays. This hotel does have children and you will definitely notice them but, with a couple of exceptions, they have been well behaved. Staff: All the hotel staff have been polite and attentive. The head waiter in Los Guayres is exceptionally dedicated. Reps: The Portland/First Choice/TUI rep was sweet but dizzy. The day we arrived was her last day. Much of what she told us turned out to be wrong so it's worth checking everything with reception. Unless you book a trip you probably won't see a rep during your stay, which is fine with us.

We stayed at this excellent hotel for our first visit to Gran Canaria in early October 2010 and would recommend it to anyone who wants a relaxing holiday with good food (plenty of choice and good quality) and excelent service. All the staff were friendly and helpful and everything around the hotel was kept clean and tidy. The rooms are a good size, and all have a balcony or patio with furniture. It's only a short walk down to the harbour of Mogan where there is plenty of restaurants but you shouldn't need them if eating at the hotel. On the walk down to the harbour you get a sense of the lack of commercialisation, the local people were often sat at tables in the street playing cards or singing to someone playing a guitar. As you get down to the harbour you'll be greeted by the white buildings covered in flowering shrubs. I don't know if it's a regular item but during our stay there were jass players playing in the small bandstand surrounded on 3 sides by restaurants and the harbour on the fourth. Just perfect!!

Die Anlage ist ca. 6 Jahre alt, könnte aber durchaus vom Eindruck her frisch eröffnet sein. Sie ist top gepflegt, bietet neben den a la carte Restaurants geradezu geniale HP-Buffets welche keine Wünsche bei Auswahl und Qualität offenlassen, hat ausgesprochen freundliches Personal und eine beeindruckende Architektur auf mehreren Ebenen mit Wasserfaellen etc. samt diverser Pools mit und ohne künstlichem Sandstrand. Die insgesamt knapp 500 Zimmer sind grossflächig über völlig unterschiedlich gestaltete Gebäude mit geschmackvoller und sehr gepflegter Gartenanlage verteilt. Wir waren zwar nur auf der "Durchreise" d.h. lediglich etwa 20 Stunden im Hotel, haben in dieser Zeit aber nichts gefunden was einer echten 5-Sterne Bewertung im Weg gestanden wäre. Die einzigen kleinen Abstriche sind die (je nach Zimmerlage) zwischen etwa 5-10 Gehminuten zum Hafen bzw. zum Sandstrand von Mogan und die eher uninteressante unmittelbare Umgebung. Perfekt für Gäste die hauptsächlich in der Anlage bleiben möchten.

We stayed at the Cordial Mogan Playa from 18th October to 1st November and for the first time ever we didn't want to come home. Although this is rated as a 4 star plus, we found it better than many 5 star hotels we have stayed in. We read many reviews on this hotel before booking, some were quite negative but we can honestly say that we could not fault this hotel. The open areas such as reception are quite spectacular and the gardens are pristine The rooms were not the biggest we have ever had but were well appointed and spotlessly clean with a generous size bathroom/toilet, we were in 3309 on the third floor which overlooks the pool area. There are no sea view rooms in this hotel as it is a 15 minute walk to the beach down a very wide pedestrian walk way The food was of a very good quality with meat and fish dishes cooked in front of you, plenty of variety and themed nights during the week, Mexican, Chinese etc. There have been quite a few comments regarding the old sun bed problem but it seems the management are taking note and are putting notices out on sun beds warning you not to reserve them, this ploy is working as we were still able to get beds in the sun at 11.00AM Most of the negative comments were about the entertainment at night, again it looks like the management are taking note and putting on better quality acts. Drink prices in the hotel are quite high however if you just want half of lager, ask for bottles of Tropical which are 2.5 euros each and don,t taste too bad, this is the same price as in most of the bars and restaurants in the harbour and beachfront area . Finally a word about the resort, if you are after exciting night life then this is not the resort for you. There are many restaurants and a few bars in the town but that is about it. There is a very big market on a Friday also. Its very easy to get around on public transport and the buses run to quite late at night, the capital Las Palmas is about a 75 minute journey If you want a fairly quiet holiday to chill out in a in a very good hotel and a relatively peaceful resort then book this Hotel, you will not be disappointed.

Fantastic hotel in lovely location. Holiday exceeded my expectations. Hotel and gardens were very beautiful and I would recomend the Hotel Tour and the Garden Tour. Food was excellent with lots of choice and the chocolate fountain was a lovely surprise, much appreciated by my children. Would definitely return. My only regret is I only went for one week, wish I'd booked a fortnight!

Everything about this hotel is special, from the waterfalls, caves and decorations in the reception area, to the landscaped swimming pools and friendly staff. We had two interconnecting rooms, which were better than the normal interconnecting rooms in other hotels, as we had a single entrance door, a shared private hall with two separate rooms leading off of it. The rooms were spotless and well looked after. Big problem with the food at breakfast and dinner - too much choice. Loved the sparkling wine at breakfast and the chocolate fountain at dinner, which appeared three times in our seven nights stay (my daughter's favourite). I had a birthday during our stay and received a cake in the room along with a letter from the Manager and at dinner that night had a complimentary bottle of Champagne and special crockery - the hotel picked the date from my passport when checking in - brilliant service. Puerto Mogan is the perfect spot - great weather and not too commercialised - long may it continue that way. All in all - would definitely recommend this hotel - hope to return soon.

This was our second visit to The Cordial Mogan Playa and once again it did not disappoint. The hotel is of an exceptionally high standard. The cleanliness of all parts of the hotel are excellent, all grounds are very well maintained. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff who work at the hotel.... Can't find a sunlounger in the area around the pool you want to sit, then the pool attendant is more than happy to re-locate loungers and sun umbrellas for you. Fantastic. There is plenty of choice in the restaurant, all freshly prepared and well presented. The weekly Hotel Managers cocktail party is a nice evening to get to know fellow guests with live music. The hotel is situated back from the seafront but the walk down to the main harbour is via a well light and flat promenade. Mogan Playa marina is full of lovely bar and restaurants...... the jazz festival was on during our visit which just added to the enjoyment of the marina. I would recommend this hotel to both couples and families.

A perfect place to relax. WIFI by the pool was very nice.

What a lovely little gem of a place in Gran Canaria. We were treated very specially from the moment we arrived and checked in. Room was lovely and spacious, pools and all the areas were lovely and clean, constantly being checked. The staff were superb, always friendly and the food was just lovely. Well, what can I say other than we are already looking for the dates we can go next year!

You wont be disappointed with this hotel. Its clean, very pretty and the staff are fantastic. The pools are great too, not too over crowded. The food was pretty good with so much choice. Its definitely more of an upmarket hotel, not full of chavs getting 'lagered' up every night. Its mainly couples and a few families. The only thing that would have been nice would to have had some water left in our room on arrival. It was very late, all shops were shut and we were gasping but after a 12 hr journey didnt feel up for going to the bars. Mogan itself is beautful. Not would you would expect in Gran Canaria. Its very quite so if you're looking for the nightlife its probably not for you. Same if you would prefer McDonalds or alike, dont stay here :) Some advice: rather than getting coach transfers to/from the hotel look into the price of a cab. Our transfer took 2hrs each way, we were last dropped off and first picked up. We'll certainly look to do that next time. Anyone going keep an eye out for 'Hoppit' He is a gorgeous, cute looking dog that hangs around out the front of the hotel. We named him that as he has a limp. Every day we would sneak food out of the buffet for him, also giving him water. We noticed various people feeding him, some couple even buying dog food and leaving it out. I've included a picture of him. Overall - anyone staying in this hotel in this town will have a fantastic time, you will love it. I'm not one to visit places twice but this place I will definitely come back to.

My husband and I stayed here for the last two weeks of August. We had a fantastic holiday. We came for a relaxing holiday and thats exactly what we got. I would agree with all the previous good comments but the only negative I would have is that in general we found the reception staff had a very snooty air about them. We were looked up and down when we arrived to check in, by one of the male staff, low size balding guy, never got his name (after 9hrs of travel we weren't looking our best!) he really had no manner at all. We found the rest of the hotel staff to be very helpfull and friendly. The facilities were great, the food was a bit hit and miss, but thats buffet for you. We enjoyed a relaxing drink in the pool bar most nights, pity the music finished so early tho. The entertainment was your usual holiday fair and was ok. The bar was open till 1am which was great to come back to after a walk down around the harbour of Mogan. Overall we had a fantastic time and would definely recommend it for a quiet relaxing holiday.

This hotel is in an excellent location, Puerto Mogan in very pretty and quiet. The hotel and gardens are excellently maintained. The staff, with a couple of exceptions, were all friendly, helpful and 100% attentive. Room comfort and cleanliness also excellent - there is even a duvet and pillow menu in your room to meet your specific requirements! The food was varied and always fresh and hot, we never struggled to find something we like, more often than not were spolit for choice. Pool areas nice and quiet and no problem getting a sunbed at any time of day. My only criticism would be the entertainment which was a little cheesy and amateur although I did enjoy the acrobatic shows - all down to personal taste I guess.

We discovered the beautiful resort of Puerto Mogan 15 years ago when we stayed at Puerto Rico with our teenage children, but there was no hotel. This hotel is 4 years old comprising several blocks spread over a large area with beautiful gardens and two pool areas. The pools have artificial beaches and gently shelving areas ideal for toddlers in addition to a dedicated children's pool. Large well appointed bedrooms and bathrooms. All areas spotlessly clean. Large dining room with outdoor seating with a wide range of excellent food. This hotel makes a special effort to cater for various dietary needs. Gluten free rolls, cakes and biscuits; soya milk; salt free ham; preserves for diabetics and probably more which we did not discover. The dining room staff were most obliging and were willing to advise and also prepare dishes to guests' requirements. Usual hotel activities and entertainment. This hotel and resort are perfect if you want a quiet relaxing holiday. No loud music from bars and clubs, mainly couples and young children. If you like Jazz then check out the Marina Bar website. They organise several festivals during the year. The only disadvantage of this resort was the trip from the airport. However the motorway is being extended through a series of tunnels to the resort.

My wife and I could not fault this hotel and to prove how much we enjoyed it Ive just booked up again for next year. Say no more.

This hotel is very cleverly designed in that it accomodates a lot of people but in such a way that you don't feel there are lots of people staying there. We stayed B & B and mainly ate in the town in the evening although the breakfast was superb with a huge choice and freshly prepared food every day. Snacks at lunchtime were reasonably priced and portions good. If you can, treat yourself in the a la Carte restaurant. There are at least 5 good eateries in the harbour area. As mentioned in other reviews, the staff genuinely seem to enjoy working there and do their best to help you enjoy your stay. The "entertainment" staff were persistent but not pushy or stroppy if you declined their services (of which there were many - Aqua Gym, Walks, tours of hotel, ping-pong, too name a few) One minor quibble would be to be wary outside if it rains as the tile inlaid paths can be very slippery and the hotel has some leaks.. The purpose of our stay was to relax and chill out for 2 weeks and at this time of year it's the perfect place to achieve that. The other good point about the resort generally is that being at the end of the main road from the Airport (but not the motorway) is that the development is as yet not excessive. The downside is that you have to lerave earlier to get back to the Airport

Hubbie and I stayed there for a week of pure indulgent laziness - and I really don't think we could have found a better spot. From the luxurious surroundings, to the beautiful pools, to the great service - everything was really fantastic. Great breakfasts! Good dinners and lunches [we were half board]. Great location - just a few minutes walk from the beach and the waterfront. Honestly, I just couldn't complain about it if I tried. It was bliss - clean, great staff, good food, glass of bubbles on arrival. It has a dive centre for the more adventurous, lovely pools, and pretty gardens. I would definitely go back and would recommend anyone to go!

This hotel is by far the best that I have ever stayed in abroad, the rooms were clean and spacious, the staff could not do enough for you and genuinely seemed to enjoy working there. The food quality and selection in the restaurant was second to none even the entertainment generally was alright as far as entertainment abroad goes. We will definitely be going back again next year.

Excellent service, always friendly and helpful. The room was very smart, clean and everything worked. The fridge and safe are included so you don't need to pay extra for them. The Hotel is built on a gentle slope with colorful gardens, all the amenities are kept in excellent condition. Its so peaceful and friendly, we will return.

Well, this hotel along with its location is amazing. The food was second to none. The meatball dish was to die for. The swimming pools were very large, and luckily never very busy! We had amazing weather all week. The staff were friendly, the entertainment was amusing...due to the champagne cocktails i kept having :). Me and my boyfriend will definately be back, worthy of all the good reviews it has gotten..................as for the bad ones? Well you cant please everyone can you? We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. One peice of advice.......stay away from puerto rico- we went for a morning to have a walk around, well can i say blackpool with sun. I hated it. Puerto mogan is definately one of the best resorts on the island. If you are in two minds whether to go here, i say just do it. You will not be sorry. We weren't.

hotel wonderful and although food self service it did not take away the pleasure of dining. the hotel is about 10 minutes walk to the beach,shops,harbour and bars

The holiday overall was everything we expected plus more. If there was any comments it would be regarding the layout of the dining room. We seemed to have to walk a long way. For example, soup not near bread, only pudding dishes near to cheese and biscuits. Nothing major. Just a comment.

my wife and i returned to this hotel this summer for our second stay and yet again we had a truly fantastic time, the hotel is stunning and is built around three pools and gardens which are kept imaculate as is the entire hotel, its cleaned every day from top to bottom, rooms are very good with maid service once a day, resturants are very good and the amount and quality of food is excellent, staff are very friendly and most speak english, german and spanish, there is loads to do within the hotel complex such as scuba diving, bowls, tennis etc, theres plenty of places to eat out side the hotel aswell and the harbour is truly lovely at night, we have just booked for 2011 so go on and try this hotel its well worth it !

my husband and i loved this hotel, met all our expectations and exceeded them. the room was spacious and spotless. the food choice was huge and always good. the resort was quiet and peaceful. the staff were helpful and just friendly enough. the sun loungers and towels etc were perfect. a lovely experience.

Una semana en este hotel sirvió para deconectar del mundanal ruido. El tiempo en Mogán inmejorable, el mejor de la isla, sol todo el día sin demasiado calor. Instalaciones: Impresionantes jardines botánicos y espacios interiores, por cierto todos superlimpios, no nos "tropezamos" con ningún insecto indeseable (tipo cucaracha) a pesar de lo grande de los jardines. 2 piscinas geniales con una temperatura del agua ideal (no tengo certeza de que estuvieran climatizadas, pero la sensación era muy buena). Ludoteca para los niños y actividades y juegos en una piscina, la otra en cambio es más tranquila y la preferimos. Las dimensiones del hotel nos pareciaron óptimas, ni tan pequeño como para aburrirte ni tan grande como para perderte. El gimnasio de lo mejorcito que he visto. También es verdad que la ocupación durante nuestra estancia no llegaba a la mitad, lo que se notaba en las piscinas y comedores. Quizás estando lleno resulte un poco justo y más incomodo. Realmente no hace falta salir del hotel para nada. Sin ser el puerto deportivo y los comercios aledaños, el resto de Mogán, desgraciadamente, no tiene mucho que ver. Más bien ofrece una imagen bastante pobre, por ejemplo el centro comercial que queda justo delante del hotel tenía algunos locales vacíos pero abiertos (sin ningún tipo de parapeto que impidiera el acceso a los mismos), llenos de basura y de suciedad. Horrible imagen. Habitaciones: tranquilas y suficientemente espaciosas (nosotros escogimos una estándar con cuna). Quizás las camas (dos individuales) un poco pequeñas, mejor si fuera una king size!. Aunque tenía TV que apenas vimos, es cierto que no era pantalla plana, lo que a estas alturas extraña un poco, al menos en un hotel de esta categoría. Otra cosa que nos extrañó fue la escasez de las amenities del cuarto de baño. Solo tenían servilletas, peine, gel y limpiazapatos...(no champú, colonia, loción, cepillo de dientes...). Atención! Si la habitación primera que os den no os satisface, no tengan vergüenza en solicitar otra! Nosotros lo hicimos dos veces el mismo día que llegamos. Primero nos quisieron dar una habitación que daba a la misma pared de la montaña, y luego otra, también muy oscura, cuyo balcón estaba literalmente tapado por los árboles de un jardín. Finalmente nos alojamos en una habitación que daba a la piscina del Spa (más tanquila incluso que las que daban a las piscina de acceso común), mucha más luminosa y ventilada. Comidas: el régimen de media pensión excelente (insisto, quizás porque el hotel no estaba ni a media ocupación), variedad, frescura y calidad de las comidas, nada que envidiar a muchos restaurantes a la carta. Para almorzar tomamos algo ligero en los bares restaurantes de la piscina, buen precio y calidad alta. En resumen, muy buena elección, pero importante elegir bien la fecha y exigir una habitación que satisfaga las expectativas del momento de la reserva. Repetiremos sin duda.

One of the best holiday hotels we've had the pleasure of staying at, and well on par with the five star Hyatt regency in Sharm El Sheihk we recently stayed at. On arrival, we breathed an immediate sigh of relief as the subconcious fears that we always have when staying at a new location were calmed. The reception area is themed using subtle lighting, vegetation & tiles and allows an air of relaxed sophistication. The use of mezzanine floors and plants is similar to that used at Universal Studios in Florida in their Jurassic Park area, and is lovely. It also helped that we were greeted by glasses of cava and made very welcome immediately. Once we had settled into the room, we made our way to the restaraiunt for the first of many "eyes bigger than belly" experiences. Not to overstate the point, the meals at the hotel (we stayed half-board) were superb. Excellent and varied choice at all meals...well cooked and well presented. Due to a lack of more inches on belts we quickly learned that lunches suited us better than dinner, but that didn't limit our choice to any sugnificant extent. The pool areas were well designed, relaxing, clean and with nice & firedly entertainment staff and attendants. Also, it helped enormously that wi-fi was available almost throughout the hotel... Puerto Mogan is a cosy resort, were stocked with restaraunts and bars, and was pleasant. We will go back...

This hotel is beautiful and I was surprised to read some of the earlier slightly negative comments! If you want a week of really good food, sun, swimming, and relaxation - this is the place to go! The standard rooms are the biggest I have ever seen, the staff are really friendly and really helpful. The spa is gorgeous with a fabulous Manager. The whole place is immaculate with the most gorgeous gardens you will see - just beautiful. Local restaurants do close early - but you're eating in the hotel anyway! If you want nightlife, this is the last place to go. If you want a week in stunning surroundings, I couldn't recommend it highly enough,

After a few years without a holiday, we especially wanted to spoil ourselves and our 3 children (17, 14 and 11). We wanted good standards and excellent food. Booking at the last minute (a week before leaving) we took a risk! The hotel and staff were amazing - the staff were outstanding and extremely friendly, even with people like us who could 't speak a word of Spanish. The hotel was spotless and constantly being cleaned. Rooms were clean and the cleaning staff catered to our every need with a SMILE! We had quiet rooms (2 adjacent rooms) 5112 and 5113, which were perfect for relaxing in after a day in the sun - peaceful and immaculately clean. I am still dreaming of the food - it was excellent - we have lived in France for 17 years and hoped for high standards. We chose half board and didn't regret this at all - neither did the children. The facilities at the hotel were perfect - wonderful pools - never too busy. TOWELS were provided for the pool daily if required - we made the mistake of taking our own!!! We have standards and this hotel met them in every way - in idealic gardens too - plants were amazing! We would go back tomorrow if we could. Puerto Mogan where the hotel is located is a beautiful little port, with lovely beach and restaurants. Our only fault if any was the entertainment! If your are looking for a peaceful, relaxing holiday in BEAUTIFUL surroundings then this hotel is perfect and so is its location.

Me he hospedado en el hotel Cordial Mogán Playa del 10 al 12 de septiembre 2010 para celebrar el cumpleaños de mi esposa. Quiero agradecerles a todo el personal del hotel , tanto del restaurante como recepción etc, por la amabilidad que han tenido con mi familia. Suelo hospedarme en muchos hoteles de las islas por motivo de trabajo, pero el cordial mogán playa me ha encantado. Mi señora ha quedado fascinada por el hotel y su amabilidad hacia el cliente y sin duda repetiremos. Muchas gracias por hacernos sentir un poco más felices y gracias de todo corazón por el trato recibido hacia mi señora y mi familia. Sin duda nos veremos muy pronto en este paraiso que se llama Hotel Cordial Mogán Playa. Saludos.

Most of the previous reports have said all I have in my mind about Cordial Mogan Playa. This hotel is just fantastic! I can’t find anything negative to say about the hotel. Friendly and service minded staff does their utmost to make you comfortable. The service is unique from arrival to departure. We got a room in the building we sent a request for (7321 - top floor with ocean view) and had a memorable week. We stay b/b and the breakfast selection was great, even cava to those desired. Breakfast time was flexible from 7:30 to 10:30. The hotel is clean and it is very cheerful colours everywhere. Our room was brilliant, with fantastic view. Shield balcony overlooking the pool, the village and the sea. Comfort bed and 2 comfort chairs. Spacious bath room. The towels changed daily and twice a week the bed sheets. Pool towels are provided, which can be changed on a daily basis from the attendant at the poolside. You get a card for pool towels by your arrival. Enough pool chairs with cushions and umbrellas available and they were in good condition. Luxurious botanic garden distributed over a surface of 48,000 square meters with over 200 species of subtropical plants. If you stay in distance from the reception building, you can take a shortcut to the playa and the centre by walking through the garden. Use your key card in the gateway close to Playa de Mogan. Celebrated my 60th birthday with a friend at the hotel in March. I recommend Pool Bar La Sama, open 11:00-18:00 hrs, buffet 13:00-15:30 with good selection. We had nice birthday buffet together with local friends at the calm terrace with view to the little chapel. We was also invited to the managers cocktail party our last night, but sadly we already had another invitation we want to enjoy. All in all; a relaxing and wonderful stay!

Beautiful hotel, well run, clean and with fantastic facilities. Helpful staff and great food. The rooms are clean, quiet and well laid out. As with most resorts- not the most comfy beds, but more than adequate. Lovely bright and clean rooms.

This hotel was excellent in all aspects of my recent holiday there. Staff could not be more helpful. Food was excellent and well presented and prepared. The hotel itself is set out in mature gardens and has seperate accomodation blocks . I would recommend this hotel to any traveller without hesitation and it is one of the best I have stayed in in all of my holidays abroad. I could find only one fault that was the hard mattresses. There is a notic e in reception saying that guests should contact reception if they were not suitable and they would be changed on request. I personally did not bother to do this but have no doubt that the hotel are already taking steps to rectifiy this minor fault. Overall an excellent hotel with brilliant staff.

Einfach toll! Puerto de Mogan und das Cordial Mogan Playa sind für "faulen" Badeurlaub und Entspannung einfach perfekt!

We have just returned from the Cordial Mogan Playa and once again it was fabulous! We enjoyed it so much last year we booked again and arranged to renew our wedding vows in the chapel, which is in the grounds. Arranging the service couldn't have been easier and the hotel staff did everything they could to ensure it was perfect and we felt very special, champagne and fruit, rose petals and swans were left in or room as a surprise! From the warm welcome,with complimentary drinks on arrival from the reception staff, to the restaurant staff, cleaners and pool guys, everyone is friendly, helpful and polite. The grounds are a pleasure to stroll around with flowers, trees, planters and everywhere is very clean and well maintained. The food was varied and always delicious....the addition of a chocolate fountain was very welcome this year!! The entrainment is low key at the hotel, we enjoyed sitting at the pool bar with a cocktail after a late dinner, and it is only a short walk down to the quiet harbour with bars and restaurants . If you want a truly relaxing, peaceful haven to unwind in then look no further.

We returned to this hotel because we were so impressed with it last year. that in it's self is the best recommendation I can come up with. It is the only hotel have ever gone back to!! it is extremely quiet (which will suit all but it did for me) and you are made to feel very welcome and relaxed.

Wir sind aus dem grauen norddeutschen November mitten in den Sommer geflogen. Das Hotel hat uns auf ganzer Linie sehr gut gefallen - das Zimmer (normales Doppelzimmer) war schön eingerichtet, die Minibar haben wir für im Supermarkt, der fast direkt neben dem Hotel war, kühlen können. Auf Anfrage hat meine eine weichere Auflage auf die relativ harte Matraze bekommen. Das Essen war lecker, Show-Cooking für Fisch und Fleisch und bei den Vorspeisen gab es pro Abend ein Moto. Das Frühstücksbuffet war reichhaltig. Die beiden Pools, von denen wir nur einen benutzt haben, war angenehm, vielleicht ein wenig kalt. Der Weg zum Strand ist ertragbar, ca. 7 Minuten durch den Ort. Die Abendveranstaltungen haben wir nicht wahrgenommen.

no me voy a extender mucho como otras veces. Las críticas de este hotel eran muy buenas, yo ya conocía la isla y sin duda lo más bonito es puerto de mogan, con diferencia...y todo se ha confirmado. El hotel es espectacular. Es un 4 estrellas plus pero mejor que muchos 5 estrellas. No si si sabría resumir: la arquitectura del hotel mágica, las instalaciones impecablemente limpias, la comida variadísima y algunas cosas muy buenas, pero lo mejor. EL TRATO. Hacen honor a su nombre. Todo el mundo es supercordial y te hace la estancia muy placentera. Aunque esté lleno verás que incluso en la piscina tienes sitio en las tumbonas y no hay gente a gritos y a carreras...no se como lo hacen pero parece un oasis de tranquilidad. Incluso los espectáculos nocturnos, a los cuales nunca iba...no estaban nada mal. Muy profesionales. En definitiva, de lujo. Tienes un hotel que es una pasada, tienes un centro comercial y un supermercado enfrente, la playa a 2 minutos y el pueblo más bonito de gran canaria a 5 minutos andando...¿que más quieres? si quieres ir a esta isla esta es tu opción. Por cierto, para los amantes del buen comer: ya lo conocíamos de hace 4 años pero TU CASA, en la misma playa de puerto de mogan es de lo mejorcito de la isla. El que vaya a LAS PALMAS, si quiere comer buena comida y precio contenido: EL BODEGON DEL PUEBLO CANARIO. Después íbamos buscando un día ACAYMO, muy recomendado, arriba en la montaña, en Mogán, y descubrimos que cerrara...chafados nos quedamos pero acabamos de rebote en otro restaurante del pueblo, llamado CASA ENRIQUE, en la misma curva de la calle san josé, y me tomé un atún en mojo hervido que estaba delicioso. Todas estas recomendaciones son de comida casera cien por cien. saludos

Hemos regresado de unas vacacione en el Cordial Mogan Playa. El hotel esta genial, tanto en cuanto a instalaciones como situacion, al lado de Puerto Mogan. El personal es super amable y detallista. No tenemos ni una pega en cuanto al hotel, excepto quiza el horario de cena, que termina a las 21.30 y para los españoles es un poco temprano...

Stayed 31-07 to -07.08 August- Must be a hotspot for Herefordians (ref:HeidiMike) Excellent accomodation,top class food and facilities. Two good pools,excellent restaurants,used tennis, bowling facilities, table tennis and pool tables. Lovely well kept gardens-check out the cacti-Only 3/4 minutes from town centre with parade of shops including supermarket a stones throw away. You can't beat a British variety format and a couple of nights the entertainment was third rate only watchable through some excellent cocktails in the Fatega Bar. Staff always couteous and friendly, Main reception very helpful -they arranged golf for my son an I. Wife and daughter were impressed with the spa treatments. Rifle shooting/table tennis/water polo etc available for grumpy teenagers who dont like being on holiday with parents. looked a well organised childrens club for youngsters. If you want to chill out there's enough facilities to pampar you all week. Can't wait to go again.

The finest hotel we have ever stayed in. The layout of this hotel is second to none with extremely good facilities. From the moment you enter the lobby area you know that this hotel is something very special. From there on in it takes your breath away with it's sheer style. The food is excellent with a wide range of very good dishes on offer. Service is of a very high standard. We cannot wait to return.

Le Cordial Mogan Playa se situe au sud de l'ile à 3/4 d'heure de l'aéroport de Las Palmas, l'accueil y est courtois et sympathique pour ne pas dire cordial (trop facile) les principales infos vous sont transmises avec un verre de bienvenue. Les vacances commencent bien ! Les chambres sont plutôt simples, elles disposent toutes d'une terrasse me semble-t-il, tout se passe bien, c'est propre. Les repas peuvent être pris à différents endroits de l'hôtel, selon l'horaire, et je dois avouer que les buffets étaient de très bon niveau et suffisamment fourni, par ailleurs le service du soir était organisé sur 2 rotations. Une végétation luxuriante et variée agrémente les allées et chemins très entretenus qui mène à Puerto Mogan par une petite porte dérobée au fond du site, qui s'ouvrira avec votre carte magnétique de chambre, c'est bien vu. Puerto Mogan est un petit port de pêche très pittoresque, restaurants, bars, terrasses, boutiques, animations, plage... cette proximité rajoute un attrait supplémentaire indéniable à cet hôtel. L' autre point fort de cet hôtel, son spa et ses 2 piscines mis à part, c'est son mini-club, avec une mention spéciale à Lissa qui s'est tellement bien occupé de notre fille Eva de 5 ans qu'elle a voulu y retouner tous les jours !!! Un diplôme était distribué chaque soir aux enfants présents, cela motive ! Franchement j'y suis allé en trainant des pieds, car j'ai horreur des ces hôtels tout récents, pseudo grandiose, car construit en carton pâte, béton projeté et autre pierre ancienne reconstituée à effet Disney Land garanti ! Le Cordial Mogan Playa n'y échappe pas tout à fait, mais il propose des prestations de bon niveau, l'on s'y sent vraiment bien, et j'y retournerai bien volontiers. Ah oui j'oubliais, un petit point négatif, c'est ce sable autour de la piscine, dont je n'ai pas saisi l'utilité !

Die weitläufige Anlage ist auf mehrere Häuser aufgeteilt, Juniorsuiten/ Seniorsuiten sind etwas abseits des allgemeinen Trubels in einem subtropischem Garten gelegen. Das Hotel liegt in Puerto de Mogán, ein kleines Fischerdorf, (wird auch "Klein-Venedig" genannt) Ca. 300 - 500m vom Strand/Yachthafen entfernt Die Entfernung vom Flughafen: Mit unserem Mietwagen brauchten wir 40 Minuten. (Durchschnittliches Tempo 110km/h über die Schnellstrasse Das Personal war sehr freundlich. Immer bemüht, alle Wünsche zu erfüllen. Es wird deutsch, englich oder spanisch gesprochen Mehrere Restaurants... Leckeres Essen, guter Service Unsere JS war groß, mit Tageslichtbad!! Sehr sauber, sehr gute Reinigung (die Betten wurden beim säubern vorgezogen...)

Urlaub war vom ersten bis zum letzten Tag sehr erholsam, zu der Zeit waren angenehme Tages-und Nachttemperaturen, keine Mücken Port Morgan ist ein sauberer kleiner Ort, keine Bettenburgen, mit Linienbus und Auto kann man die Insel sehr gut erkunden

Having had a raft of experience travelling to many parts of the world it is nice to find a nice watering hole that not only has a great location but also staff who will go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible. On arrival at 3.00am we were guided quickly to our room and a picnic was delivered within 5minutes as a welcome even at that unearthly hour.From then on the experience was top class and the 2weeks went too quickly to enjoy everything that the hotel and surroundings countryside have to offer and we will be returning at a later date for more top class service.One or two tips as follows: Do go around all of the buffet areas at meal times as you can easily miss out on the wide selection of food available,and when going down to Porta Mogan try the bars on the left hand side behind beach as drinks and food are cheaper than the tourist area on the right.Do Do Do try the al a carte as it is good as you would get in a top London Hotel!!!!

The Hotel is absolutely stunning and the staff work so hard at the hotel so that you have a most enjoyable stay. Nothing is too much trouble for them too sort or deal with. We had a twin room and it was lovely. Balcony was lovely great for enjoying a drink in the evenings. Being the last stop on the bus (about an hour from airport) we passed the built up areas and arrived at Mogan a small town with character (known as Little Venice). The hotel is located very close to the beach and being able to walk through the hotel grounds and out to the shops and beach was just pleasurable. The flora and fauna on the hotel site is just amazing. The food, we were staying on a half board basis and was just amazing the choice was just fabulous. The quality and standard of food here was second to none. Loved everything. Our suitcase didnt arrive with us but the hotel gave us extra toiletries and we coped. The hotel just made up for it, despite not receiving our case for 3 days.

went here for one week had a great holiday. im a really fussy eater and enjoy eating out so switchedm my evening meal to dinner and ate out on a night time. The rooms dont have an iron and no english television channels but you can get good dvds from reception for free. would recomend this hotel it was outstanding. 10/10 hotel food 7/10

My husband, 5 year old son, 2 year old daughter and I have just returned from a lovely holiday in Gran Ganaria staying at the Cordial Mogan Playa hotel. It's a beautiful Hotel and the Management and staff take great pride in keeping the resort clean and welcoming. We had a good experience of the Hotel before we arrived as we had contacted them prior to our holiday to request interconnecting rooms as when we booked our holiday we had to book two rooms which would have meant one adult and one child per room. The Hotel got back to us very quickly to say that they had reserved a double room and a single to which we had access to each room. They said they would put a fold down bed in for our youngest. We were very pleased with this but had no idea to what type of accomodation we would end up with. Well on arrival, after a welcome drink while check in and a porter to show us to our rooms we were very happy to see the set up of the two rooms. We had two rooms in one corner of the building that was accessed by a main door. This door opened up into a big square hall and inside were two further doors. One was into what the hotel class as a single but in fact it's a 4f6 bed and there was a fold down bed in there too. It had it's own bathroom etc... The other room had it's own inner hall with a door to the right taking you into the Bathroom and then a door to the left into the bedroom. The inner hall had a big floor to ceiling wardrobe which meant the bedroom was a massive airy space. We had sliding doors onto the balcony and two long narrow windows on the opposit wall to the bed. So for all those families with younger children these are fantastic rooms to request directly with the hotel. This Hotel is so childfriendly, which none of the Travel agents in uk seem to advertise. Our kids had a great time at the Mini Disco every night and the kids club was a welcome relief to the hot afternoon sun. While there were one or two British children there were loads of German and spanish kids. The kids club staff were great with the kids but overall so were the rest of the staff, especially in the Restaurant. Everywhere is kept clean throughout the day right down to any leaves or petals that fall on the paths. The Gardens are an oasis of beauty and at every turn there is something else to see and explore. There are little streams with little wooden bridges, ponds with goldfish, and fountains, it goes on... So to anyone reading these reviews and wondering if all these excellent comments are for real? I've one thing to say, " try it for yourself, you won't be disapointed!! " Take no notice of any bad reviews, not that there are many!! The only advise we would have to anyone going is to limit your choice of food per nigth as it's much the same every night but this we discided isn't a negative towards the Hotel, it's their way of catering for everyones tastes. The other thing I'd say is if you are wanting a Resort full of action then Puerto de Mogan is not the place for you! If you like a more relaxing holiday where you can enjoy a feel for the spanish life then it's perfect. We hired a car for a week and enjoyed getting out and seeing the Island and while some of the other Resorts where nice enough looking we were even more convinced that we had chosen the right Resort and Hotel! Here's sending a BIG thank you to all at Cordial Mogan Playa for making our Holiday so special and we hope to be back.

We stayed at the Playa for 2 weeks in July and it is one of the best hotels we have stayed in. We arrived at the hotel quite late on in the evening, assuming that we had missed dinner. As soon as we arrived we were ushered into the dining room and were informed to take as long as we liked over dinner. Check in was very straightforward and we were given complimentary drinks whilst waiting to be shown to our room. A porter showed us and took our luggage to the room, explaining all amenities on the way. The rooms are spotlessly clean, lovely bathroom, large wardrobe (not many hangers) and an empty mini bar fridge so that you can stock up on drinks (there is a supermarket called Hyper Dino opposite the hotel and a Spar more towards the beach. But there is also a Supermarket in the Marina area that is much cheaper). We had a room overlooking the pool, the balcony was of average size and there is a rack to dry your clothes. I would recommend that any ladies take their own hairdryer as the one in the bathroom isnt very good as you need to constantly hold the power button down to get it to work. The hotel offers both room service (5 Euro charge for delivery) and a Mini Bar service. The cost of renting the safe is a few Euros per day. The two pool areas are spotlessly clean and there are plenty of sunbeds to go around although some people get up quite early to reserve them. The food at the pool bar La Fula is of good quality but it is cheaper to eat in the Marina / make your own lunch. The hotel offers the facility to charge food and drink to your room to save you carrying money around with you which we found to be most useful. The only downside we found is that the hotel allows smoking around the pool but only two people during of whole stay smoked near us around the pool and we fed this back when we checked out. There is a small newsagents type shop in reception along with a small souvenir shop. The staff are absolutely fantastic and cannot do enough for you. The choice and quality of the food at breakfast and dinner is excellent, lunch - not so much, not as much variety. It is about a 10 minute walk to the beach but you can cut through the back of the hotel and use your key card to get out the other side. The beach again is clean, not very big but you can rent sun beds / parasols but it may work out cheaper to buy a parasol from one of shops on the beach. There is not a lot of nightlife in the resort so if you are looking for a lively resort then this is not for you. The marina at night is very quiet - not that many good restaurants outside of the hotel - the best one is La Cicala (Italian) on the beach. The entertainment at the hotel is good - there is a great variety of acts from singers to acrobats, magicians, there are people that bring in snakes and birds and tribute acts. Drinks in the bar are reasonably priced and there are a wide variety of drinks and cocktails. There are also free activities that go on in the hotel on a daily basis - e.g. yoga, nordic walking, spanish lessons, hotel tour, aqua gym and lots more. The grounds are amazing and are filled with plants and trees - the hotel also does a plant tour. The hotel also has a Spa (10 Euro entry), bowling alley, gym, tennis and giant chess. There is also a Church with a service every Sunday. There is also an Ancient Burial ground on site, opposite the Spa, The complex is quite large and I would recommend taking time out and having a look around the complex. There is market in the Marina area every Friday. There are also stalls offering boat trips etc. If you want a total chill out holiday then this is the definitely the place for you.

Nos alojamos en este hotel a primeros del mes de Julio, ya había leído las críticas antes de ir y no me han decepcionado . Un hotel cuatro estrellas superior que cumple sus objetivos. La llegada fue estupenda un recibimiento muy cordial todo el mundo muy atento. Reina una tranquilidad absoluta incluso en la piscina, no se oye un ruido igual para nosotros demasiado. El buffet desayuno cena estupendo. La comida correcta para mi era suficiente además te lo hacían la momento. La mayoria de los huespedes alemanes el 90%, los fines de semana lleno de canarios que venian muy bien sobre todo para los niños que al hablar español se relacionaban más. Un mención especial al Maitre del hotel Jose. Se porto fenomenal, coincidimos con el mundial de Futbol y fué estupendo, desde aqui te enviamos saludos, los huespedes que te dejaron la nota. Repetiremos Clima, pueblo la gente no puedo decir nada malo del hotel.

We (I, my wife and grown-up daughter) have just returned from a fantastically relaxing week at the Cordial Mogan Playa. It was everything we were hoping for and more. We had chosen this particular hotel and location because we needed a quiet place to recharge the batteries and in my case to recover from a recent operation. The first thing that struck us was that the complex is vast and almost like a self-contained village. If you've seen the 60's cult classic The Prisoner you'll have some idea of the feel of the place. The resort is in a valley with volcanic mountains on both sides giving it a feel of Shangri-la too. The gardens throughout the grounds are amazing, well-tended and stocked with plants, trees and flowers from all around the world. One of the entertainment activities is a guided tour of the flora. We had booked a Junior Suite and a single room for our daughter. We were delighted when we saw our suite. It was on the ground floor and came complete with a small private garden and terrace. We were expecting the usual broom cupboard as an excuse for single accommodation for our daughter but for once she was given an extremely spacious nearby room with a balcony. The furnishing, decoration, cleanliness etc in both rooms were very good, no complaints at all. Our rooms were just a few metres away from the breakfast restaurant and the pool so we were perfectly placed for a very lazy few days. Breakfast was a relaxed affair with very efficient staff and a wide choice on offer - pancakes, smoked salmon, fruit, caviar etc, etc. We were on half-board and the evening meal was served in the main restaurant which meant that we had an "arduous" walk of over a hundred yards along paths lined with exotic plant life. This enforced excercise regime was entirely necessary because the choice of food on offer each evening was extensive and impressive to say the least. I suspect the management have an arrangement with Weightwatchers. There were two sittings each evening but you could swap as long as you informed reception during the day, or you could have lunch in place of dinner. This arrangement was very flexible if you had any excursions planned for a particular day. There was also an A La Carte restaurant on site. Prices at the bars were reasonable. There were two pool areas but we only used the one near our rooms because it was so handy and also the quieter of the two. There were plenty of sunbeds and shades ( and also some natural shade) so you could spend a very comfortable day poolside. There were plenty of daytime activities. Katerina tried her best to encourage everyone to join in without being too pushy! She even succeeded in rousing me and my wife from our sunbeds - no mean achievement on this holiday. On our last evening we were invited to the Manager's Cocktail Evening, which involved free sangria, "champagne" and nibbles at a poolside bar. Some of the staff were introduced and applauded - a nice touch and underlined the general caring feeling of the hotel. The staff were unvaryingly friendly throughout our stay. Though you don't need to step out into the real world, there are a few shops and a handy supermarket just opposite reception. The port and marina are within easy walking distance - either turn left out of reception and keep straight on, or use the handy gate at the far end of the hotel grounds (behind the Hermitage - yes, there's a hermitage on site for the rowdier guests). There are quite a few bars, restaurants and shops at the port, and also a decent sheltered sandy beach. There's a Friday market which attracts people from all over the island. As always there are one or two niggles. The evening entertainment was usually limited to about 40 minutes of bottom of the bill caberet, of the Sunday Night at the London Palladium circa 1960 variety (If you like monocycles and hula hoops, I apologise). Finally, the last 20 minutes of the journey to the resort is a white-knuckle ride to match any at Alton Towers. Don't look down!

Wir hatten uns auf Grund der Bewertungen bei Tripadvisor spontan für das Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa entschieden und wurden in keinster Weise enttäuscht. Der Service war sehr aufmerksam und durchgehend freundlich. Schon zu Beginn wird man mit einem Glas Sekt/Orangensaft begrüßt und kann sich auf einen sehr entspannten Urlaub einstellen. Zudem erhält man große Badetücher für die Sonnenliegen, die man am Pool austauschen kann. Die Anlage ist sehr abwechslungsreich gestaltet, der große Palmengarten sowie der Kakteenpark mit Beschriftungen der einzelnen Pflanzen lädt zum Spazieren gehen ein; es gibt einen kleinen ärcheologischen Teil mit Beschreibungen sowie zwei Pools, die sehr sauber sind und auch ausreichend Schattenplätze, um sich vor der äquatornahen Sonne zu schützen. Es sind auch ausreichend Liegen vorhanden. Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber und geschmackvoll in mediterranem Stil eingerichtet. Die Servicekräfte sind auch in diesem Bereich sehr freundlich. Der Strand ist (je nach Zimmer) 300-700m entfernt und liegt in einer Bucht und ist so von allzu großen Wellen geschützt. Leider sind Sonnenliegen und Schirme nur gegen Gebühr zu mieten. Die vorhandenen Wellness-Einrichtungen haben wir nicht genutzt. Das Essen wird in Buffetform gereicht und es wird immer ausreichend nachgefüllt. Beim Frühstück ist freie Platzwahl. Besonders schön ist es draußen im Wintergarten mit Blick auf einen kleinen Wasserfall. Von Müsli/Obst, über verschiedene Brot- und Gebäcksorten, Waffeln/Pfannkuchen bis hin zu warmen englischen Frühstück ist alles vorhanden und sehr lecker. Das Abendessen steht jeden Abend unter einem anderen Landesmotto, bspw. Mexikanisch oder Italinisches Essen, so dass sich das Gros der Speisen nach diesem Motto richtet. Zusätzlich zum Buffet gibt es "Show-cooking", also das frische Grillen von Fleisch und Fisch. Die Getränkepreise zum Abendessen sind in Ordnung (2,10 für 1/2l Wasser; 15-20 € für eine Flasche Wein), zumal sich gegenüber ein Supermarkt befindet, bei dem man die Getränke für den Tag über kaufen kann. Das Hotel eignet sich auch (mit Mietwagen) für Ausflüge ins Landesinnere, da Puerto de Mogan der Eingang zum eher weniger touristisch erschlossenen Gebiet im Landesinneren ist. Das Hotel ist insgesamt sehr zu empfehlen. Die Stationen sind im ganzen Raum verteilt und es lohnt sich, sich erstmal alles anzuschauen, um dann zu entscheiden, was man ist. Dadurch ist (als kleiner Minuspunkt) bei manchen Tischen ein recht starker Durchgangsverkehr .

i got married in cordial mogan playa in june and what a fantastic experience myself and husband had there. the setting was out of this world.... the staff were excellent and so obliging, the food was top standard and i would like to give a special mention for the manager Bartak, he was a pleasure to deal with. i usually stay in puerto rico as i like the nightlife but if u are looking for a relaxing holiday with superb surroundings Cordial Mogan playa is the place for you.

sehr zufrieden, wir können es nur empfehlen es hat alles gestimmt

Great hotel, lovely pools and food. Half board is great value.

très bon hôtel : restauration variée et de qualité, grandes chambres climatisées. hôtel à ( mn de la plage (petite mais très propre) et à 200 m du village de Puerto de Mogan (petit port de pêcheurs). Animations diurnes et noctures à l'hôtel. Belles piscines très bien aménagées avec des transats (avec matelas) répartis un peu partout afin que les gens ont un peu d'intimité. Hôtel dans un jardin subtropical, face à un centre commercial et un supermarché. sinon plein de restos, bars et quelques boutiques dans le village. Mais si vous souhaitez faire la fête, il vaut mieux loger à Maspalomas. Dans l'hôtel, il y a aussi une discothèque, un espace Spa et une salle de fitness. Le personnel est très agréable et sympa, mais il vaut mieux parler l'allemand ou l'anglais pour se faire comprendre. il y un seul steward qui parle très bien le français à l'hôtel, mais les serveurs font des efforts en utilisant de temps en temps quelques mots de français. Louez une voiture pour quelques jours et vous traverserez des paysages fantastiques ! nous sommes aussi allés au Park Palmitos très sympa. Nous recommandons cet hôtel pour ceux qui souhaitent des vacances agréables et calmes.

My husband and I stayed at the Cordial Mogan Playa in May this year for two weeks and were joined for the second week by my sister. We had a fantastic holiday and congratulate the staff at the hotel for making our stay so memorable. Our room in building one on 4th floor overlooked the pool and was southfacing...excellent. When my sister joined us she was located next door-but-one to us - ideal. We spent most of our time in and around the hotel but Puerto de Mogan is a very pretty place with an attractive harbour and pretty houses and lots of flowers. Only thing we could say is that the evening entertainment could have been better. We are looking to return to the Cordial Mogan Playa in the future, something we haven't done before.

We spent a nice week in the hotel which is like a little village with beatiful flowers and swimming areas. Easy to spend a holiday because you have in the hotel area everything you need but you even have the shops quite near when you like to go for a walk. The hotel was also recommended in the Finnish tourist magazine. We are looking forward to come again!

I am 14 years old so i am basically writing this review for all the teenagers to read. I have been n some amazing holidays before such as to LA, New york, France etc... This year me and my family decided to go to gran canaria and was by far the best holiday i have ever been on. the staff were very kind and polite and helpful,the rooms were amazing and always kept clean, the pool area was lovely as it was clean and beautiful and the food was excellent! There was a lovely short walk up to the shops such as a SPAR for food and water etc for nights and clothing shops such as Lacoste. By the shops there is a lovely peaceful fishing harbour where you can go on nice walks around it and look at the amazing views from the side! At the hotel there was evening entertainment it started off as not very good as the acts wernt good but by the end of the week there was a couple of very good acts! Overall a very enjoyable stay! oh and the weather was amazing!

Das Hotel lässt wirklich kaum Wünsche offen. Es ist alles sehr sauber und die Zimmer sind groß und sehr modern eingerichtet. Die größe der Anlage wird einem durch den geschickten Bausstiel und die schöne Gartenanlage kaum bewusst. Das Essen (wir hatten HP) wird in 2 "Schichten / Gruppen" eingenommen, so dass es zu keiner Zeit überfüllt ist oder das Buffet geplündert wirkt. Die Altersstruktur: 70+ oder aber Familien mit mehr oder weniger alten Kindern - wer Party sucht ist hier also falsch! Entspannung dagegen findet man recht einfach. Kritikpunkt am Publikum: Rentner und Deutsch --> Poolplätze sind teileweise ab 6 Uhr mit Handtüchern reserviert! Wenn das Hotel ausgebucht ist, könnte das etwas nervig werden! Zum Thema Kakerlaken: Wir haben genau EINE erblickt, die hatte sich zum tanzen mal in die Bar verlaufen, ansonsten weder im Zimmer noch in der großen Gartenanlage! TOP! Zimmer wie bereits geschrieben TOP eingerichtet und stets sauber! Einzigen Abzug gibt es aufgrund der Betten, Kissen und Decken. Die Matratze ist zwar schön hart, aber die Betten sind recht wackellig und rutschen leicht auseinander. Die Kissen waren eher etwas klein (persönliche Meinung) und die Dekcen sind nicht wirklich schön anzuschauen (Teddy-Bär Braun). Hier wären zumindest Bezüge schöner anzuschauen. Puerto de Mogan ist mit einer der schönsten Orte der Insel. Nicht so verbaut und der Hafen lädt zum bummeln ein. Einkaufmöglichkeiten sind direkt am Hotel vorhanden. Zu Empfehlen ist die Bar/Grill ZOO am Hafen, wirklich sehr leckeres Essen und Cocktails sowie sehr guter Service

This is a fantastic hotel. Everything about it is set up to make sure that you have a truly wonderful holiday. The hotel is spotless, food delicious and the hotel gardens like a tropical paradise. The manager and staff were friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. This is one of the best hotels we have stayed in and we could find no criticism to make at all. We are a mature couple and the location close to the very pretty marina and fishing village suited us as we like a gentle stroll after dinner. The entertainment was of a high quality and the public areas of the hotel very well designed. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. All in all an excellent hotel and our thanks go to the managers and staff.

Eine beeindruckende Hotelanlage - sehr schön und gepflegt! Absolut empfehlenswert! 4 Stene + sind absolut verdient.

We're off in just under two weeks for our third holiday to the Cordial Mogan Playa and can't wait to get there; it's our little bit of paradise. The hotel is immaculately kept in evey respect; with two beautiful pools; lovely rooms; good, varied food; friendly, helpful staff; and absolutely stunning gardens. It's a hotel for all ages, with the friendly animation team encouraging everyone that wants to, to join in with the activities (boules, football, table tennis tournaments etc), but leaving you in peace if you just want to laze by the pool and have time out, dozing on the cushioned sunloungers that are kept free of early morning towels by the concientious pool staff. The rooms are very comfortable and air conditioned, and though you have to pay to use the safe, all rooms have free (unstocked) mini fridges that you can stock up from the hotel or the excellent Hyperdino supermarket that is just across the road. There's a huge selection of food at each meal time buffet. We really loved the omelettes and pancakes at breakfast and the fish and meats in the evening, all of which were cooked right in front of you. The only pity is that breakfast and evening meals have to be taken indoors as at these times there's no outdoor dining facility open - still, the verandah overlooking the waterfall is a lovely compromise. The resort is picture postcard pretty. It's mainly quiet; except for market day, on Friday, which is mad! Then hundreds intrepid travellers brave the hairpin bends and death-wish coach drivers in order to invade our little bit of paradise, bot otherwise it's pretty perfect and I can't wait to return.

Excellent hotel and amenities, cannot fault staff or cleanliness at all. Grounds were beautifully well kept and the spa was "to die for". Both pools were spotless and the water clear every day. Food a bit samey throughout the two weeks but very fresh and well prepared - nothing was too much trouble. The drawback is the resort itself. Firstly, it is off the beaten track in relation to the main resorts of Gran Canaria. I was told it was quiet but was not prepared to find that everything shuts at either 5, 6 or 8pm. If you fancied a drink at the harbour during the evening, there was nothing open. In fact short of walking up the valley to the road in and out of the resort, you could only walk to and around the harbour and beach. It is the "gem" everyone talks about and it's lovely and whilst I am not the "Ayia Napa" type, it is just too quiet. This is a Thomson/First Choice Premier hotel but be prepared if you want to some sightseeing, some of them are ticket only and you have to make your own way there. We wanted to see Maspalomas dunes and do the camel ride, but Thomson no longer provide this trip. You could get a ticket to the dunes but that's all.

One of the best constructed hotels we have been in worldwide. The rooms and service were first class. The entertainment was very enjoyable. We really liked the mix of indoor water gardens and the vast range of tropical plants in the grounds. The staff in all departments were friendly and efficient. Our 2 week stay had a feeeling of being at home. The Mogan Port was quiet but enjoyable for walks and drinks. The local walks were varied and very enjoyable. The food on half board was varied, high quality and healthy. We will go back to this hotel next year but my wife has booked to go back with her sister next September. One suggestion, join the activities and get to know the wide range of other guests in ages and nationalities, it really enhances the holiday.

El hotel en sí tiene unas dimensiones estupendas -no es un macrohotel en los que tardas 2 horas en llegar al comedor- y probablemente el mejor servicio de bufet que he encontrado en hoteles de esta categoría, . El desayuno es increíble y las cenas espectaculares; la atención de los camareros y maitre impecables, comodidad para los niños, horario medianamente español.... el rioja carísimo, pero por lo menos tienen variedad. La piscina -tienen 2 pero una no la utilizamos- genial para los peques, con entrada tipo playa, 2 yacuzzi, y hasta arena en la zona de hamacas -esto un pelín molesto, si no te gusta hacer castillos-. Sin problemas de espacio, al menos en esta época y servicio WIFFI. perfecto. La animación -que no hay los lunes- bien; miniclub a partir de 4 años superútil a la hora de la siesta, y minidisco, quizá un pelín descafeinada..lo que se suple con los espectáculos nocturnos post-cena que tenían rechiflados a los enanos ( halcones y águilas, grupo africano con danza acrobática, equilibristas chinos con dragón incluído......). Habitación muy correcta y servicio de limpieza impecable.. de hecho, pese a ser una planta baja, ni un insecto ..(lo que se agradece dado el tamaño de las cucarachas canarias). El Hotel tiene unos jardines espectaculares, cuidados al milímetro..realmente es una delicia pasear por las instalaciones. Al menos durante nuestra estancia, y exceptuando el fin de semana que se llenó de canarios, erámos contadísimos los españoles...así que ciertamente puedo corroborar la tranquilidad de la que se habla en otros comentarios... a lo mejor un tanto excesiva para el gusto patrio :) En definitva, es un 4 estrellas de las de verdad, situado en quizás el pueblo más bonito de Gran Canaria, (a una distancia de 5 min. caminando). El acceso a Mogán, por una carretera de curvas "infierno", bordeando un superacantilado, es lo único negativo que podría reseña, aunque realmente, te incita a disfrutar más del hotel y del pueblo. Por hacer alguna crítica constructiva, el servicio de comida en el restaurante de la piscina, incluído en la pensión completa, desmerece muchísimo con el de la cena; no sabría decir si compensa contratar únicamente la media pensión, pues el pueblo está lleno de restaurantes de todos los tipos y precios. De todas formas, el bufet es correcto.

buen hotel para disfrutar de unas vacaciones,un servicio excelente que te tratan como si fueran tu propia familia,muy bien el hotel,fijese si esta bien ke este octubre repito,mi agradecimiento por los dias que pase en el hotel a todos los trabajadores,y pronto nos vemos,chao.

We arrived 3rd April for a 10 night stay at Cordial Mogan Playa. Our stay was wonderful, the food was excellent, the staff were so attentive. Our TV broke down, within 10 minutes of reporting it our TV was replaced. We had the mosy fabulous holiday & needless to say we cannot wait to go back!!! Would recommend to anyone!!

We booked at very short notice after reading recent Trip Advisor reviews and were not disappointed at all. We found the the hotel public areas to be tasteful in style and maintained to a high level. We particularly appreciated the garden areas which were immaculately maintained and very pretty. Our room overlooked the main pool area which we found to be a lovely spot. In the main the variety and quality of the food was excellent, we settled into a bit of a pattern and thoroughly enjoyed everything we had. Lingering breakfast, finished with pastries and cava, superb. We needed a quiet break and that was just what we achieved. The hotel is not for those wanting hustle and bustle.

Was everything we hoped for, requested rooms close to main facilities due to having elderly relative with us and they had given us exactly that, some rooms can be a fair walk away which i had been slightly concerned about so were very pleased they had taken note. Ate in the conservatory which was lovely and enjoyed the food, went on early dinner which was a bit hectic and had to weave our way through the buggies to get back to our table, there were quite a lot of small children so maybe better to opt for the late dinner if you like it peaceful. The pools and gardens were amazing and so well kept. The only thing I missed was being nearer the sea.

Acabo de llegar del Hotel Cordial, decidimos ir debido a las buenas críticas que se leian en este foro, y la verdad es que no nos ha defraudado. Frente a otros hoteles de Meloneras, en donde el cliente es tratado como masa, aquí el huesped se siente unico y especial, el personal es excelente pues desde la camareras de la habitación, hasta el maitre del restaurante hacen que tu estancia sea cómoda y CORDIAL. No desconfían del cliente como en otros establecimiento y las instalaciones son excepcionales, pero su mantenimiento también. Tanto si vas con niños, como si disfrutas de una estancia romántica este hotel no sólo es el mejor de Mogan sino me atrevo a decir que de Gran Canaria.

Our first trip to Gran Canaria as a couple. My husband visited many years ago when he was single and knew Playa del Ingles would not be to my liking. We took a chance on Puerto Mogan after reading Tripadvisor reviews on the resort and hotel. We were not disappointed on either count. From the moment we arrived it was an oasis of calm and comfort. Our room overlooking the pool had a terrace with a Banana plant and Bird of Paradise plant growing on it which kept the room cool all day - wonderful after spending time in the sun. The staff from the cleaners to Managers always greeted us as they passed. Small touches such as sparkling wine on arrival, Manager's cocktail party, and even more special noting it was my husband's birthday when we hadn't told anyone (we assume this was picked up when scanning passports on arrival). I was able to find something I could eat (lots of food intolerances) every evening, the casseroles were particularly good. Usually when we return from a holiday we can think of something that could be improved - not this time we had a fab time even when the Ash cloud disrupted our return (not the hotels fault!!) .... full marks to First Choice for their handling of that scenario. We don't usually return to the same hotel as we like to try different resorts/hotels but this is the first time that rule will change. We will definitely be returning to the CORDIAL MOGAN PLAYA.

We cannot praise the Hotel Management and Staff enough for the service we experienced for our two weeks stay in this very special Hotel. We arrived about midnight on Monday 17th May and were greeted by the most efficient and helpful hotel reception staff we have ever met. We were welcomed by a very friendly, and happy, young girl, who offered us a glass of Champagne and proceeded to book us in. We were then escorted to our room, by a very polite porter, who took all our luggage for us. Our room was number 7222, which was a beautiful, clean and spacious room which overlooked the pools and gardens. However, although we did actually face the afternoon sun, it did not shine on our balcony. Initially, we were disappointed with this, but after we had experienced how hot the sun was, then we realised that our room remained comfortable and very pleasant, and not stuffy and warm. The actual location of the Hotel is very good. A very pleasant walk through the Hotel gardens and out of a gate, leads to the very pretty Harbour. It is only a short stroll, which takes about 5-10 minutes. We stayed Half Board, and on a couple of occasions, swapped our evening meal for lunch. All our meals were excellent. The food choice, especially for breakfast, was brilliant. Even the fussiest of eaters, would find plenty to satisfy their appetite. The evening meals had a choice of cooked meats and fish, along with vegetables and the salad was always fresh and plentiful. The sweet choice was very good indeed, and we were especially impressed with the variety of tiny cakes and tartlets which were always on offer, and the different flavours of ice-cream each night also. As I have said, you could not fault the food at all, there was that much choice, I couldn't possibly list everything that was on offer. The waiters and waitresses were very obliging, and always had a smile to welcome you and the Restaurant was spotlessly clean. During our stay, we went along on the Plant Tour of the hotel gardens, and also the Hotel Tour, which is something not to be missed. Well, we have only been back home for a week, and already checking the website to book again, hopefully for September/October. We have well and truly caught the bug ............................ once you have experienced the complete package of a holiday at the Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa, then you will most defintely want to go back. We must also mention that all the staff wear traditional Canarian dress, and that adds to the particularly special ambiance of the Hotel. The efficient cleaning staff, also deserve a mention as they kept our room immaculate throughout our stay. Thanks to all the Management and Staff who helped make our holiday a memorable one.

Read all the reviews before we went and we were not dissapointed. Such a lovely and comfortable hotel with exceptional cleanliness standards and beautiful surroundings. We had a 4th floor room overlooking the main pool and it was so peaceful. Very pleased with the room with plenty of space and two easy chairs. The air conditioning was a real benefit (it got up to 42 degrees one day and was always around 34 degrees), as was the small fridge. When booking in the people next to us enquired about a Minibar and we overheard the desk clerk saying they could have the minibar but it would much better to go to the supermarket outside the hotel where they could by drinks for the fridge much cheaper. Room towels changed every day and I think we had 5 or 6 changes of sheets. For the first time for quite a while we were on a 14 day holiday and we knew that we would get fed up with visiting the restuarant every night (regardless of how good) and anticipated eating out 3 or 4 times, so being able to change our evening meal for a lunch was great for us. The food incidently is very good with a good variety. Two lovely pool areas with enough sunbeds (and mattresses) and parasols for all. And no big dash for beds, you could turn up at 11 am and still get a place by the edge of the pool. Excellent pools for children. Good pool towel service. It was my birthday whilst we were there and we returned to our room to find a birthday message and a small cake - a small but nice gesture. The bar prices (whilst dearer than at home) compared very favourable with bars both in the resort and in the surrounding areas. It appears that most bar prices are dearer in Spain/Canaries than at home. Puerto Mogan is a very pretty resort with a great number of bars/restaurants, but unfortunately there were not many people around so the majority of places were closed up by 10 pm and those that were open did not have many customers. From talking to other people most other resorts were the same. We will definitely return but for 7 or 10 days and not 14.

We have just enjoyed an 11 night stay at this gem of a hotel - with my 5 yr old twins and elderley mother-in-law who has walking difficulties. This hotel really could not have been more perfect for us in every way! Built in 2004/05 the design has been well thought about and ticked every box for us. Ramps or lifts are available everywhere so my mother-in-law did not have to walk up or down steps at all. The staff were fantastic - friendly, accommodating and plentiful so service was excellent. The hotel rooms and suites are built in clusters - so it is almost like a little village rather than a huge hotel feel. We requested connecting rooms for us and our two children - and the rooms had an 'outerconnecting' door so you opened one door into a little hallway, then there were two rooms accessed from the hall - we left the two inner doors open and had two full bedrooms, two bathrooms, two balconies and loads of space! Two TV's and DVD players and two fridges (so we could order drinks from the hotel, or most people would stock them with drinks from the local supermarket, a much cheaper option!) ..... We then asked the hotel for a room nearby for my mother-in-law and the hotel gave us rooms on the ground floor and right next door to each other - perfect! The rooms, public areas, gardens, pools - in fact everywhere was spotless! The gardens are beautiful, well worth a walk around - our children loved finding the lemon and lime trees, the banana trees and the peppers, tomatoes and various herbs. Again - all pathways are suitable for wheelchairs or buggys. There are two huge swimming pools and a toddler pool - but the pools are fantastic - a lovely temperature, very easily accessible either by a slope with a handrail (no steps at all, just a gradual shallow entrance), then they also have other areas with steps and a handrail, then they also have the ladders as well. Lots of shallow areas for kids - absolutely brilliant! There is also tennis courts, a spa, a bowling alley - loads to do. The animation team worked so hard and were really nice - asked if you fancied joining in with aqua-aerobics, or a salsa or spanish lesson, or a tour of the gardens - but no pressure at all to join in .... The kids club was fabulous - our two children have never wanted to go into any club at all in the past, but once they saw certificates being handed out at the mini-disco (7.30pm every night exceot Mondays) - they wanted to go and they loved it! They made so many friends and it was open every day except Mondays from 10.30- 1pm and again from 3pm-5pm (totally free for ages 4-12 yrs). The food seems to have come up for some criticism from previous posts - but as buffets go, I really thought they did exceptionally well. We were on half board and chose the early dinner sitting (6pm-7.30pm) as the late sitting (8.30-9.30) was too late for us. They have various 'stations' situated around the restaurant - in the morning these are : fruit juices/milk/smoothies/teas and coffees, cava and orange juice, 5-6 different fresh fruits, 5-6 types of cereals, pastries of all kinds, dietary/healthy foods, various yoghurts, fresh breads, hot choices (at least 10-12 different dishes), cold meats (at least 5-6 different meats), 4-5 different cheeses, mackerel and 'fishy' options, pancakes and waffles with various sauces - and finally a chef cooking fresh eggs and omelettes to order! In the evening these 'stations' covered : soups (hot and cold), fresh bread, full salad bar with cold meats/fish/ shellfish, 4-5 different pastas with 3 different sauces, a full hot section with at least 12-14 different dishes (sometimes themed - chinese style, spanish foods etc), a hot grill with a chef cooking two or three types of meats, another hot grill with a chef cooking 2-3 types of fresh fish, sometimes a pizza section with a chef making pizzas to order, a large cheese section (with grapes and nuts and crackers), at least 10-12 different desserts, numerous fresh fruits, 4 varieties of ice creams. If people cannot find something they like every day - I would be amazed !!!! We thought it was fantastic value and ate far too much!!! The 'a l carte' restaurant is said to be very good but we didn't try it (15 euros credit per person to dine here if you are on half board). One important point to note - we weren't told and only found out on trip advisor the night before we left - there is a dress code in the evening for men (in all restaurants) - they MUST wear long trousers (jeans ok) - no shorts allowed or flip flops .... pretty much anything goes for women and kids though. Finally, the location - wonderful !! So pretty - a nice flat and easy stroll to the beach and shops / restuarants there - then just a few more minutes stroll to the gorgeous marina and colourful side streets with white washed buildings draped in bouganvillea .... loads of restaurants to choose from - but not for those looking for wild nightlife or discos! No lager-louts or hen parties - it was fabulous for us though! Take the local ferry to Puerto Rico - only 10 euros per adult return - and if you take an early ferry there, and come back on the 12.30 pm ferry, you get a free detour through the 'dolphin zone' for dolphin spotting. Market day on a Friday in Puerto de Mogan was worth a look - go early though as it gets busy .... As I said in the title - I have been lucky enough to stay in many 5 star hotels with my job (as a travel agent) - and this hotel certainly competes with some of these and is better than many that I have stayed in! A couple of tiny points niggled a little (they charge for in room safes and the pool service for drinks wasn't very frequent) - but overall, it was fantastic and we will definitely return!

Just arrived back from hotel cordial morgan playa and what a fantastic hotel it is. On the moment we entered this plush hotel we where treated to warmth and kindness by all staff and managers. On arrival you recieve a glass of either champagne, orange or water. you are then taken to your rooms by a porter who wont let you even carry a jacket. The rooms are the cleanest i have ever stayed in with two beds (although slightly hard) are still comfy, you have a desk, dressing table, bedside tables, fridge large double wardrobes and safe, the bath rooms are tastfully tiled with a bath, shower, sink, two towel rails and fresh towels every day. they also supply body and hair wash which is lush. The toilet is seperated by a frosted glass door. A hairdryer is supplied but the lead is slightly short but hey you cant have everything. A balcony completes the room with table and two chairs and a pull out washing line. Breakfast is the usual foreign breakfast except you have a chef who cooked eggs and omellettes for you and a chef cooking waffles. Evening meal can get slightly monotonous (sorry for the spelling), but you can swap this for lunch and go to the harbour for a meal in the evening. the pools are lush and the whirl pool is fab on a very hot day. prices in the hotel are a bit steep but the hotel doesnt seem to mind if you go the supermarket across the road and buy drinks and food to take to the hotel. excellent market on a friday (go early), fab shopping if you can get the price down. If you can get a car and visit other places, we didnt and wish we had. if you are going here, lucky you....enjoy.....i cant wait to go back .x photos to follow

I went here with my Mother for a week in May and we both loved it. Fabulous hotel in beautiful pool and well maintained grounds. Main restaurant was good with a great selection on foods, we prefer to go out and eat in the evenings so being able to swap dinner for lunch suited us well. They provided a buffet lunch with fresh fish, meats, salad etc (we sat on the terrace facing the church - perfect spot for relaxing). We did have some problems with our air-conditioning which caused us a couple of restless nights but the hotel staff couldn't have been more apologetic and it was soon fixed. Mogan is a very pretty port with some great shops and a large market on a Friday, quite a few restaurants but dont expect any bars or late nights - pretty much all finished by 10:30. If your looking for a excellent hotel with polite and helpful staff this is the place to go. Make sure you eat in the al a carte restaurant one night - its fab (hotel provided a voucher for 30 euro toward the meal as we were not eating the in the main restaurant that night)

I am writing this review whilst waiting for our flight home. We have had an amazing holiday staying at this hotel. We have had a great stay with the highest service and attention to detail applied by all the staff and management. Everyone we met were friendly and polite and could not do enough for you. The pool complexes were never over crowded and sun beds with umbrellas always available. The resort was of a very pretty low rise group of coloured buildings set around the beach and port area. The ambiance was wonderful and a really relaxing atmosphere. My wife and I will be coming back as we enjoyed the break so much. The hotel made it and the resort was great. Large market on a friday, lots of bargains although you must barter! The restuarants are varied and clean in the resort and the hotel bars were good for snacks during the day. I would rate the hotel at five star for a holiday.

Normalmente no soy partidaria de quedarme encerrada en ningun hotel, ya que me gusta conocer y explorarlo todo. Pero ese hotel es una maravilla, esta rodeado de jardines y fuentes, con su propia excavacion arqueologia y una gran variedad de especies endemicas..... todo un lujo para los sentidos..... Aun recuerdo la primera noche, tumbada en una hamaca en la piscina de arena natural, el sonido del agua correr, la luz reflejada en la montaña y la divina arquitectura del hotel invitaban a sentirse realmente bien.. si existe el cielo, el cordial es la antesala...

The best hotel we have stayed at in the last 5 years. The gardens are unbelievable, the plants are even named! Excellent facilities, you can be as active or relaxed as you wish. The food was excellent with plenty of choice and very fresh. We are looking forward to a return stay in May 2010.

We were very impressed with all aspects of this hotel even providing a soft top mattress which we thought good attention to detail. The food was of good quality and plentiful. The friendleness and efficiency of all the staff being very much appreciated.

We stayed here for one week as a party of six for my parent's Golden Wedding. We had two teenagers with us, and were looking forward to a relaxing week in the sun after the long English winter. We were not disappointed. The Cordial Mogan Playa offered very high standards of service and comfort. From the moment we arrived (to be greeted with a glass of Cava), the staff could not do enough for us, and were courteous and helpful at all times. The room was extremely comfortable and spotlessly clean and neat, beautiful bathroom and spacious wardrobe (the opposite, in fact, of what we are used to on our usual family apartment holidays). I felt like we were liviing in 5 Star luxury for a week! The food was extremely plentiful at both breakfast and dinner, and there was always something to suit each member of our party, from pasta and pizzas to a variety of salads, meats and fish. We found the 8.30pm sitting to suit us as we moved from dinner to the nightclub bar for the entertainment, which we all (young and not so young) enjoyed - vis a vis some of the negative comments on this website, you have to bear in mind that entertainment is provided almost every evening essentially free-of-charge, and we watched some impressive acrobatics and dancing over the course of our stay. The hotel facilities are excellent and extensive. My daughter and I spent a couple of hours in the relaxing spa area, tried out the gym, and there are squash courts, 10 pin bowling, table tennis etc. The pool area close to our room was meticulously cleaned and tidied every evening by a diligent Life Guard. The sunbeds have thick mattresses (the covers are regularly taken off and cleaned), and are very comfortable. I would consider the best rooms to be on the upper floors overlooking the pool areas, as you get a lovely view of the pool floodlit at night. All in all, an excellent holiday in a small but pretty resort, although you may find you don't stray far from the hotel complex!

This is a very well designed spacious hotel with interesting buildings and extensive well kept gardens. Even though the hotel was busy it never seemed crowded and there were always plenty of loungers around the two excellent pools throughout the day. The staff were always friendly and attentive, and the rooms were cleaned and replenished promptly each morning. The mass catering food was not excellent but as half board guests we thought the evening meals were still very good with plenty of choice ( and you could always opt for the a la carte restaurant with a credit). One small thing we liked was that the rooms came with empty fridges so you could stock up with your own cheap drinks etc from the local supermarkets. Mogan itself is an extremely attractive resort incorporating sandy beach, picturesque houses and harbour.

Wonderfully designed hotel - alhambra like courtyards combined with tropical gardens, so very relaxing.Swimming pool nestling between mountains and plenty of sunbeds. Staff very friendly and helpful who seem to enjoy working at the hotel. Choice and quality of food fantasticalthough one of two sittings has to be chosen. Nightclub available but quality of acts could be improved. A perfect place to unwind. We intend to make it a regular winter break.

Pase la Semana Santa en este hotel, habiendo hecho la reserva por internet, no tenia conocimiento anterior, ni informaciòn alguna de las extraordinarias cualidades que reune el Cordial Mogan Playa. Estuvimos mi mujer, y yo, con nuestro hijo de 4 años, y quedamos encantados, instalaciones, recinto exterior ajardinado, piscinas, y especialmente, la esmerada atencion del personal que alli trabaja. Un hotel para recomendar, especialmente si se viaja con niños pequeños.[--]

Comfortable hotel worthy of its stars and reviews. Food good and varied - fish the best. Kidney shaped swimming pools very versatile. Evening entertainment surprisingly good (for us only bettered by a hotel where they hired full time professionals), and daytime activities varied and good fun (I felt sorry for the Ents team as they had to work hard to get people off their loungers!) - our 12 year-old was made an honorary member of the team as he was there at almost every event. The 'girls' thoroughly enjoyed their spa session. Only weakness: reception and evening bar sometimes undermanned. Village very picturesque and relatively quiet -hopefully there won't be too much development in the future as it's a hidden gem. Small beach. Local market excellent, but larger market full of tat and crowded. Farthest hotel from the airport but worth the extra distance.

We had a wonderful experience from the start of our weeks holiday , where we were greeted by cheerful, courteius ,helpful staff and a sparkling glass of bubbly . Once checked in we were escorted to our room, which was spotlessly clean , and comfortable . Surrounding area is delightful with a vast array of beautiful gardens with a variety of trees . A tour of the gardens is well worth going on . Food was excellent . We had half board . Amazing choice at both breakfast and dinner and the service was very efficient . Our only grumble is we feel water should be free with dinner as it is at breakfast !! Great animation team with lots of activities if you want . We joined in and thoroughly enjoyed the exercise with still lots of time for relaxation . There is entertainment each night and a short walk from the hoter is a very pretty harbour and marina ,with many resturants around . We highly recommend this hotel especially for those who wand to chill out , relax away from the hectic life .

Have just returned from a week at the The Cordial Mogan I cant think of 1 bad thing to say ... the hotel is spotlessly clean , food excellent with plenty of choice , the wine is expensive in the restaurant , the rooms are well decorated with ample storage space , good bathroom & bath is lovely, cleaners do an excellent job , the safe is extra .. the swimming pools are beautifully designed & the one nearest reception is the quietest the other pool is used more by families as there is a play area ..peurto mogan is beautiful & only 5 minutes from hotel .there is a ferry which goes to puerto rico ( yuk) Anfi well worth a visit , & Arguiniguin small but worthwalking along beach walk. forgot to say no tea making facilities in the room , there is a hairdryer which is good but has a short lead .

First off, it should be noted that some of posted reviews here belong actually to Cordia Apartments and not the hotel. For instance, the hotel does not have any self-service laundry but only the same as other hotels with laundry service (leaving the white bag). The apartments are 3 star establishments while the hotel is 4+ stars. The apartments do not have AC but instead ceiling fan. We stayed two weeks and occupied two adjacent standard rooms. We were staying on the ground floor. Very few rooms of the higher floors might have some limited far view of the ocean. Room views are very varied in fact. Guests in rooms facing direct sun have the possibility of having their swim suits died on the racks provided in the balconies. The standard rooms that we occupied were good in size. The beds are a couple of beds (twin-bed). The beds are not the best quality, but we had no problems sleeping. There were not any extra pillows or cushions for sitting and watching TV. However we never asked and though we asked for an extra blanket it was provided virtually immediately. The fact that there are twin beds leads to house-keeping moving them in order to make the beds. This causes some noise for neighbors especially those who live at lower levels. There are 6 glasses in each room and a small fridge at no costs. If you request a mini-bar you have to ask for at least 6 items. I doubt that anyone uses mini-bars as a large supermarket is practically outside the hotel with half the same price. No coffee-maker or water boilers in rooms. There is however a courtesy room in block C with microwave oven. Neither are there any moisturizers or q-tips in the bathroom. The bathroom is otherwise great with extremely great water pressure and temperature. There is a tube with good quality shampoo/shower gel. There is a door separating the toilet from the rest of the bathroom and another door separating the bedroom from the corridor. These increase sound and light isolation, when someone wants to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. There are two pools. We used only the larger one. They are extremely clean and with good depth, beginning from 0 to 1.6 m in depth. No diving allowed. The constant presence (actually 9-17) of a life guard made the pools free from people trying dangerous stuff. This was clearly demonstrated after these hours when some guest began their mischief. There is one baby pool and a total of three bubble pools. These bubble pools though somewhat with cold water give very good massage due to the high pressure of water. Honey-moon suites are said to have their own bubble pools. We were there during high season yet we never encountered any problems availability of sunbeds. The hotel has a policy regarding beach towels. You are given cards upon check-in which you give at the pool area and get back upon checking out. These cards give you right to have certain number of towels. It was efficient and effective system. There is a free gym with about 10 machines, plasma TV and access to towels. Several ping-pong tables for free but 1 Euro for billiard plays. Squash, tennis, bowling, darts are also available. The buffet at breakfast, lunch and dinner are very good. We had only breakfast included and sometimes we had lunch and dinner. The price for lunch buffet in this way is 12.5 per person while dinner is 25. These prices do not include drinks, just like when you have half- or full board. There are more choices at dinner than during the lunch, though if you ask me the lunch was really a bargain (compared to its price) while dinner price was OK. Though you will not be facing the ocean, the quality of the food is definitely better at the hotel compared to the outside. The prices even for main course served in the room vary from 9 to 22 euros, which is the same as outside the hotel. This food delivered by room service is of good quantity and quality compared to places outside the hotel. The lunch room has good views too on its different terraces but smokers usually sit there. The most delicious food however is served at the hotel restaurant called Los Guayres. Prices range from 13 to 22 euros for main courses. There is 15 euros discount per person if you have half-board. In summary, the hotel food is recommended yet I will not recommend full board for most people but only dinner for half board. Whenever you are at the hotel you can the lunch anyway for the same price. There is free wireless internet connection in the main lobby which is verrrrrry sloooooow. What makes it even more difficult for skype is the loud noise from automatic piano in the lobby. We chose to sit outside the hotel entrance to use skype. The staff when mentioned apologized for the noise of the piano but said that they could not decrease the volume. This plus low speed internet and the beds were the worst parts. Also 2.3 euro per night for room safe which I think is ridiculous for a hotel that aspires to be 5 stars. What makes the hotel the greatest hotel we have stayed are two things. Firstly, extremely helpful, nice, friendly, courteous and efficient staff which I have not seen anywhere else. The other great thing about the hotel is its gardens. It can easily compete with several of European capital botanical gardens. What I liked most is the mentioning of the origin of each plant which made me realize a lot. One can become a member of Cordial Hotel Club for free with some benefits, including 7 nights stay for the price of six. Check their home site. There is no doubt we would come back to this hotel. Even if you do not like quiet and small, yet charming places like Port de Mogan, this hotel is the kind of place you will be coming back to.

ich war sehr zufrieden das hotel war toll und die hotelanlage ein traum wenn man sich erholen möchte kann ich es nur empfehlen, ist nichts für partygänger

Sehr schönes hote, grosszügige Gartenanlage und sehr freundliches Personal. Das Abendessen inzwei Sitzungen, (18:30 und 20:30) man bekommt einen festen Tisch für die gesamte Aufenthalt was sehr praktisch ist. Es gibt zwei grosse beheizte Pools mit ausreichend Liegen. Im allgemeinem eine nette Atmosphäre.

Es was einfach super, wir fahren noch Mal hin!!!!

Sehr zufrieden, sehr erholsam gutes Preis Leistungsverhältnis

Sehr erholsamer Urlaub, schöne Anlage, schöner Ort

From, the moment of arrival service was excellent. Drink on arrival. They even remembered my husband's birthday with a cake and champagne for dinner at no cost. Excellent facilities in room including a topper provided to make the beds softer!. Lush tropical gardens and super food. Have travelled the world several times and this has to be one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in.

We hired a car and with the help of Google maps it was an easy drive from the airport to Mogan Playa Apartments. But then things went pear shaped. Eventually we found that when facing the Apartments building, the hotel is 100 yards down a road to your right – don't be put off by the red/striped barriers across this road, they rise as you approach. The hotel is a linked chain of buildings set in gardens and spreading several hundred yards along the bottom of a steep sided valley running from the north towards the sea, where the port is. Hotel reception is at the north end, and rooms are in 3 or 4 story blocks. On the advice of a previous poster (to whom many thanks), we booked room 7307, which has a nice large terrace. The room was excellent: spotless, and airy. We found the beds a bit hard – if you prefer soft ones, ask in advance. The view from our terrace included a "Shopping Center" of unhinged modern design. The room is towards the south of the complex and is convenient if you want to use the nicer pool (see below) and to pop down to the port. The secret route to the port is to head south through the gardens, past the big blue building then along crazy-paving past the little church to another path headed south. The gate at the end gives you exit and re-entry using your room key; just 5 minutes stroll from the port. The hotel gardens, buildings pools and furniture were very well maintained and the hotel's crew did an excellent job clearing up after our mini-hurricane (which, sadly, the Shopping Center survived). We loved the gardens: they're all around you as soon as you step out the door and even if you're not into horticulture provide a wonderful green backdrop to the blue of the pools and sky. There are 2 big pools: the one nearest the main building was used by serried ranks of sunbathers, while the one further down towards the port was better for swimming and felt less regimented. The irregular shape, varying depth and other swimmers meant we couldn't swim laps, but we got plenty of exercise zigzagging about. Of our 11 days, 4 were overcast and/or very rainy. That suited us fine since we took plenty of books and sun-free days prevented overexposure the strong February sun. When it did rain we found we could stay fairly dry on our way to the hotel restaurant by using the first floor balconies – that left us with just a 20 yards dash. The wild canaries we saw looked like fat sparrows with blond wingtips, and to compensate the hotel has a small aviary full of the tennis-ball varieties. We had half board, and both breakfast and dinner were buffets. You get assigned an individual dinner table on your first night which you keep throughout your stay, so be prepared to negotiate to get what you want! Breakfast is open seating. We aren't keen on buffets, but the hotel worked very hard to make them as good as it can. We had eggs and omelets cooked to order for breakfasts, and steaks, fish etc fried to order for dinner. Wine and water were extras but not extortionate. Like some other posters, we went to the port for some dinners and lunches. There are lots of restaurants there covering all price levels. White table cloth joints were about Euros 40 a head with wine, cheaper ones half that. Fresh fish was excellent, but you need to check it's local and hasn't been shipped in frozen. We ended up preferring the slightly cheaper places. We found we could eat outside comfortably in the evening – most restaurants had enclosed outside areas, and we rarely needed our jackets. And at lunchtime we never needed jackets. Unlike some other posters, we met only nice Germans. Only tiny negatives: the hotel's perimeter security is good but not perfect, so you'll need to rent the in-room safe as an extra. But it locks itself at 11AM on your last day, 1 hour before checkout time, which we found inconvenient. And if you sit in the basement atrium bar you get a strange combination of piano music wafting down from the floor above interfering with the music from the nearby Animation show. Incidentally, the latter seemed fine. On driving: away from the coast roads we found the Canarian road signs awful and wished we'd taken SatNav. Signs are either non-existent or in wildly differing formats. What appears to be a sign pointing to the local Supermarket actually indicates a crucial town on (or more likely off) your route. And vice versa. This measure is possibly to thwart invaders, and it worked on us – we never made it to the centre of the island! Still, we did manage to explore the coastal resorts, and decided that the combination of the Cordial Mogan Playa and its little port make it the best resort on the Island. The only fly (no pun) in the ointment is Las Palmas airport, quite the worst we've encountered. But that's another story...

We chose this hotel following positive reviews on tripadvisor and it was fab ! We were fed up of the snow in Northumberland and it was our 30th Wedding Anniversay so went half board which we usually avoid mainly due to poor quality of food we have experienced in other hotels. Hotel was very clean , food was very good- fresh and plentiful ,gardens immaculate ,staff helpful rooms were comfortable and roomy ( just as well as my husband brought his road bike ! )- a special place to stay !!! We will defintely return - thought we would never say that about a 'package holiday ' hotel so it must be good ! Short pleasant walk to shops and seafront from hotel.- we walked down a night and had a coffee/drink after our evening meal . Resort is lovely with sandy beach and lots of places to eat on the seafront . Prices for drinks vary so shop around ...and do NOT order sangria by the jug - it is twice the price of by the glass. Dont bother with a trip to Puerto Rico - Puerto Mogan is so much nicer. Only improvement would be tea and coffee making facilities in room - we took travel kettle as we had read previous comments. My husband enjoyed the road biking very much but wished that he had hired one instead of taking his own( £40 with Thomas Cook ) - very good quality ( trek & speacilaised)bikes available to hire in the resort

Tolles Hotel zum Relaxen sehr weitläufige Hotelanlage, mit viel Palmen zwischen den einzelnen Gebäuden! sehr gutes Essen, ist in einem sehr angenehmen Ort mit viel schönen Lokalen am Strand und am Hafen

Das beste und schönste Hotel in Mogan. Da stimmt einfach alles. Waren zuvor schon in einigen Hotels in Playa und Maspalomas, nicht zu vergleichen. Wir kommen wieder. Schade, dass das so tolle Spa Eintritt kostet. Die beheizten Außenpools sind prima.

we had a lovely stay at the cordial mogan playa at the end of january. we were part of a group of seven ranging in ages from 2 to 74 and this hotel had alot to offer for us all. From the moment we arrived the staff were so friendly and helpful. The glass of champagne was also very much appreciated after a long journey - got us in the holiday spirit straight away. Our room was immaculate and comfortable. The pools and gardens around the pools were lovely and very well maintained. The padded sunloungers and complimentary pool towels were great. Our little girl loved the childrens pool. We all found the food both at breakfast and dinner to be of high quality and with plenty of selection. It was lovely to be just a short stroll from the lovely mogan harbour which we fell in love with many years ago. This was not our first time to mogan but it was our first time to stay at the lovely cordial mogan playa hotel ..... it certainly won't be our last. A big thankyou to all the staff at this wonderful hotel for making our stay so thoroughly enjoyable.

Our fortnight at this hotel was somewhat marred by a severe rainstorm that upset meal services and filled the pool with muddy water, but these problems were soon solved. An excellent feature is the lack of loud music at the pools, and over enthusiastic animation. There were fortunately very few noisy children or Russians. The best feature is the excellent buffet breakfasts and dinners, with an amazing selection of foods and all well cooked and hot where needed. You get a choice of dinner sittings and the same table for your stay, possibly less easy this way to meet other guests - at the managers cocktail party there was no effort to introduce people to each other. Guests are mainly English, Scandinavian and German. We had a 4th floor room overlooking the pool, some rooms I think are less well situated. A nice touch was the cake and bubbly the hotel gave me on my birthday. Although not on the beach the hotel is 200 m from the attractive town of Puerto Mogan (no longer a 'fishing village"). Recommended excursions are the fantastic mountain roads, the cheap and efficient bus services, the boat service to Puerto Rico etc and walks in the area, that to Playa Veneguera highly recommended.
