Hotel Atlantic El Tope

Hotel Atlantic El Tope is a wonderful 4-star hotel that was completely refurbished in 1998 and offers a really good location for your next holiday in Tenerife. The El Tope has everything that families require for a relaxing holiday. For UK travellers it is available as a package holiday from Lastminute.com with full ATOL protection.

Enjoy the fabulous food from the restaurant or burn off the flab in the well-equipped gym. Relax in the Jacuzzi with your partner or steam away your cares in the sauna - all available in the hotel.

This hotel also has plenty of traditional facilities available, including a tennis court, swimming pool with lifeguard, hairdresser, and parking for guests. From reception you can buy daily papers in English, printed daily in Tenerife, including the Daily Mail, Daily Express & The Sun.

The hotel comprises 216 rooms and provides great views over the La Orotava Valley. The seafront is about a 7-minute walk down a steep slope; we recommend taking the courtesy bus or a taxi if you are not 100% fit. The taxi service is very cheap and available locally.

The hotel is available to book direct; however, visitors from the UK can buy a full hassle-free package holiday from Lastminute.com.

What People Like

Many guests praise the location, especially the wonderful views of Mount Teide and the city/ocean.
The staff generally get positive remarks for friendliness and helpfulness.
The food/buffet breakfast is often mentioned as a highlight for variety and quality.
Cleanliness and comfort of rooms are well-scored.
Good value for money in many cases.

What People Are Less Happy About

Some rooms are described as dated or needing updates.
Parking availability can be limited, especially during renovations.
Because of its elevated position (El Tope meaning the top), access involves steep slopes or stairs, which may be difficult for people with mobility issues.
Some service inconsistencies (e.g., bar service, all-inclusive drinks, slower staff in certain areas).
Occasional renovation works may cause noise or partial closures.

Overall Verdict

The consensus is very good but with caveats. Reviews frequently say very good, we'd stay again provided you accept the slope, parking, and age of the hotel as trade-offs. If you're looking for a comfortable stay with good food, great views, and friendly staff and don't mind a bit of hill walking or limited parking, it's a solid choice. Those seeking fully modern rooms and complete accessibility might prefer a newer or recently refurbished hotel.
