Vik Suite Hotel Risco Del Gato

The rooms are a great size with a private patio with sunbeds, 2 double beds which are reasonably comfy settee in the lounge area and a kettle and a coffee maker, it seems wrong that they charge you for a bottle of water and for coffee for the machine, Bathroom again is a good size but seriously needs looking at the mosaic tiles had a patch covered by a bit that didn’t even fit properly Reception staff were great but breakfast staff were generally quite rude. The breakfast was awful, machine juice, cheap bread with no butter only margarine, really not good, you’d be better off going down the road to the shop and getting your own, can’t comment on the pools as didn’t use them at all and hardly anyone else did. There is a funny smell in the bathrooms.

It is our fourth visit to Risco Del Gato as we simply love it here. We have stayed in many Hotels and rentals on the island but we often find ourselves returning to this Hotel. Here’s why.. we love the friendly staff, especially Bernardino on reception who is simply wonderful, so friendly and welcoming. The food is far superior to many of the large hotels which cater to hundreds. Every other evening is a five course sit down meal with a menu for you to choose from and it is always, I mean this, always delicious. Other evenings are often themed with Italian, traditional Spanish and US food style which are served buffet style with a chef cooking fresh food for you. The Hotel is quiet so if you prefer a noisy, music, drinking, hundreds at dinner & breakfast hectic vibe, this isn’t for you. It is peaceful and tranquil and a wonderful space to wind down.

Stayed in suite 101, booked 7 days with check out after 4 nights and changed hotel. Very place both outside and in the suite but woefully worn and should have been renovated in 5-10 years ago. Spiders, ants and cockroaches in the room but mostly in the bathroom..breakfast is ok but not more and dinner is like a bad roadside restaurant. Far and steep down to the beach, located next to the sewage works which smells bad and no fun around. Pretty long walk to restaurants for lunch, stayed 4 months before at Livvo Volcan which was a very good hotel with this place is a bottom notch so avoid it.
