Hotel Cordial Mogán Playa ****

The Hotel Cordial Mogán Playa is styled like a typical Canarian village. And that means an unforgettable vacation any way you look at it. The first thing one notices about the Hotel Cordial Mogán Playa is its sheer size. The complex itself is very large and has everything onsite.

Mostly positive experience with a few exceptions. Location is perfect with excellent service and spotlessly clean rooms and facilities. Complex is well kept and attractive. Some less positive aspects are the fact that there are no double beds (they are two single beds pushed together). Also, sunbeds by the pool are all reserved early in the morning and staff make no attempt to prevent this. Decor in our room was quite dated and there was visible damage to the exterior of the property on the underside of the walkway opposite our 2nd floor room which was a bit worrying. Overall though this is a good hotel with great service.

Lovely hotel, like an oasis. Spectacular planting makes it a very intimate hotel even though it's quite big. Very well thought out building small blocks of rooms instead of one high-rise. Food was good for breakfast and dinner. The staff are all friendly and helpful. I'd feel safe going back on my own.

Great place that transports you to a different kind of Gran Canaria, full of greens maintained to a high standard! There is also Botanical tour of the hotel varied flora.Food varied and even though sometimes lacks vibrant flavours available outside of the hotel still perfect for a week's getaway with kids.Service was great, although I wish Miniclub had 2 hour sessions at least instead of 1.5 hour ones as it doesn't give enough time for parents to do much.Family suites with two rooms an absolute treasure!What's more the hotel even prints A4 Format Christmas program for it's guests!The most amazing thing was that on Christmas Eve children actually received presents from Santa! We've stayed in a few places before during those dates and this was definitely above and beyond! The cherry on top was the fact that hotel staff even provided batteries needed🙂! Everything was so thought through!Kids were thrilled. Our little one is still singing into a little microphone she received. 😂

Fairly good experience here. Staff are particularly helpful and friendly. Buffet dinner wasn't great but there are plenty of outside options. Double-check for unexpected items on your bill due to the lack of validation by staff when charging to your room, there are some sad people out there that feel thr need to try to steal from others / the hotel!

This Hotel is absolutely amazing. The rooms are really cozy, the food is awesome and the service is really friendly. We felt in love, especially with the whole facility and the botanical style. The whole package was so good that we book to years in a row 😁

The long transfer from the Airport might leave you worried about where you're going to end up. Don't!This place was absolutely lovely, clean rooms, staff were helpful, grounds covered in greenery and water features. Went Half-Board+ which meant drinks with evening meal were included, make sure you get the right card when checking in for your first evening meal.Best single piece of advice I can give is that although the checkouts are late at midday, look to make use of the Spa facilities (€18-20 pp) if you're staying later and want to use pools and showers rather than pay for a late checkout (~€80).

This is rather large hotel. In general the impression of the lounge is quite nice. Welcoming and check in was with champagne. Outdoor areas were tidy and clean. Plenty of flowers and plants. Found nice mantis from flowers. Nice pool area, which wasn't even full of "reserved" towels from elder people. :)Hotel is a bit of mix of old and new. There are some activities offered, like bowling or spa and treatments. There was couple friendly hotel cats in hotel premises. Always nice bonus.Hotel room was ok. Bit too cold during the nights, especially the floor which was tiled with ceramic tiling. We traveled during end of march, so coldness in the room was probably due to time of the year.I would probably choose same hotel, if I would go again this area.

Amazing resort with beautiful lobby area and botanical garden setting. The junior suite was a nice size with a superb balcony overlooking botanical gardens. Service was impeccable, over and above from all the staff. The only downside was the fireworks and loud music going on till 4am weekend nights wasn't exactly ideal with a young toddler. Would definitely return though.

We had a great week here. Rooms are spacious. Showers hot and strong. Service was great. They just need to have better directions to get around and more shade in all areas please!!

Our 2nd stay at this hotel and one of the best that we have stayed.Half board basis and the food plus service was excellent.The only one negative was the cost of drinks.

A lovely hotel with nice people working here and they do their best to help. But the hotel is ruined by the Shambles at evening meal. A few people are ruining the name of the hotel by not knowing how to organise the restaurant. Breakfast is great for myself as I have a suite here so a special breakfast restaurant. I have a bottle of red wine mostly every night. The price they charge is 21:40 euro. The same bottle in the super market is 6:50 euro. In my almost ten days here I have seen one other table having wine. Food they have is acceptable but I have known a lot better. As the days have gone by after writing my first things about this hotel I have come to the conclusion that the top brass does not know what is going on. My lady and I was put in a suite overlooking a house with six dogs. I have asked three times reception about these dogs barking. They tell me they have had many complaints and offered to change our room after seven days. We are not young and can't understand why this hotel would put us in these rooms knowing it would upset us. Why would they do this??? To late to change with all the packing etc. We got used to the dogs and like the suite so we will stay till the end... But the shambles In the restaurant has not ended. Tonight at Evening meal we saw a young couple 'who like us was given a table for their whole stay and like us was told to leave the table because some other people had booked it. SHAMBLES...... don't let all this put you off booking this hotel as it really is a lovely place if you are prepared to fight for what you want. We are still here and hope nothing else goes wrong . But when you pay almost two thousand pounds for ten days like we did you should expect better. Hope you all have better luck than we are having when you book this lovely in hotel. Rick. ...My second from Last night and getting ready to go down to the restaurant ..I feel sick and am worrying what will happen this evening as last night we were treated quite bad. I of course could be a coward and stay away and just go hungry. No I will go and take a chance. Maybe get back on comments tomorrow.....wish me luck.

Amazing Canarian hotel. Staff so helpful and food amazing. Dining area is spectacular, a great variety of food and breakfast is particularly good. Good size main pool too.A 10 minute walk to the Marina, shops and restaurants along the bay which has plenty of sun bedsEverything you could want is here. Would definitely recommend so far.

Lovely complex in a quiet area. Grounds and pools are awesome. Place is spotless. Rooms are big, well kept but a little dated. Have visited several times and will again. Highly recommended.

In one word: wow!Everything about this hotel is amazing. It is huge but not in an overwhelming way. Plenty of space around the pools and there's no shortage of sunbeds.The food is on another level. The best a hotel could offer. The entertainment is fab! The rooms are cleaned thoroughly every day. There are lots of ramps in the hotel too which is handy for buggies.The pools are so beautiful and there are always lifeguards around. The pool bar food choice is extensive and the vibe is so relaxed.The spa is so relaxing and treatments amazing.The location is so close to the beach and marina, and the walk is a pedestrian promenade which is excellent for families.The service, what can I say except excellent? The staff are always on hand and with a smile. I had an exam while on the trip, and the staff were all helpful especially Mr. Eduardo Martínez who was so accommodating and eased my nerves. The only thing I would change is next time, I would add HB as the food was so good and so varied with lots of vegetarian options and dietary info specified, we ended up eating there a few nights rather than going out for dinner.We are a family who travels a lot, and obsessed with this hotel, it just has it all and we will definitely be returning.

I have stayed in many hotels around the world - this is one of my favourite hotels.This was our third stay at beautiful Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa – and I am sure that we will be back again next year.The hotel is perfectly located next to the pedestrian walkway that runs into the charming little village, just about 10 minutes walk to the promenade.This time we had a standard double room on the third floor (no 7321) with beautiful sea views and afternoon sun at the balcony (see my attached photos). The room was well equipped and comfortable. In the main bedroom there was a mini fridge, tea and coffee making facilities, a 32-inch TV, two comfy chairs, a table and desk. The wardrobe was a good size, and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was a good size and had a shower over the bath.The hotel is always kept spotless both in rooms and the public areas. A huge congratulation to the whole housekeeping team!I notice that some reviewers mention that there is a problem with reserving sun beds by the pool early in the morning. We had no problem getting a perfectly located sunbed after breakfast around 11 AM. For us there was no need to get up early to reserve a sunbed with the beach towel.The wifi was fragile – We never did manage to get it to work.In summary, Hotel Cordial Mogan Playa a very well-run resort offering a high standard of quality and service. We loved every moment of our stay and would highly recommend this place.RegardsSvein-Magne Tunli from Bergen, Norway.--------------------Review from 1018:My favourite hotel at Gran Canary!This was the second time my wife and I are visiting this amazing hotel in beautiful Puerto De Mogan! Cordial Mogan Playa is first of all a very beautiful resort (see my attached photos and you will understand) and we experienced this time a very high level of service from all of the staff.Our room (no 7218) was very spacious and offered nice views and afternoon sun at the balcony. The room has also a spacious bathroom.Breakfast was excellent with a large choice of cereals, continental meats and cheeses and cooked eggs and meats, though a little busy if you arrive later than about 08:30 in the morning.Last time (March 16) the wifi at the hotel was something of a hit and miss affair. This time there was no problem with the connection at all but the capacity in the afternoon can be a little slow.In summary, Cordial Mogan Playa is a very well run resort offering a very high standard of quality and service. I gave it 4 “stars” in my last review. This time it will be 5 stars!Highly recommended. We will be back!Regards Svein-Magne Tunli from Bergen, Norway.

Positives first: excellent location, 5 minutes walk from the lovely beach. Two large swimming pools, one more for kids, one quieter for adults. This year in February there were plenty of free sunbeds (last year in October they were actively moving towels that were put out before 9am). Very comfortable beds. Could do with a slightly firmer pillow. Good size room and wardrobe. Breakfast buffet good with plenty of staff. Love the grounds of the hotel - lots of trees, feels like an oasis.Negatives: just for British visitors - only 2 English TV channels, BBC news and Sky. 20 German TV channels, so brilliant if you/your children are studying German at school. Tricky to get into the wifi if you have an iPhone - you have to go to a separate site - make sure you ask at the desk for detailed instructions/ring reception.

A really lovely hotel, very clean and well situated a short stroll away from Mogan Playa. The staff were all friendly and there are two pools - with a quiet one for adults and a louder one for kids and families.The Spa area is really lovely and they were very friendly and professional. There's a nice little walk attached to the hotel which takes you over a site of historic interest and gives you lovely views of the port.

The food was not good and the staff was unfriendly. Furthermore, our bathroom was not clean which made us feel really uncomfortable. When we complained about that at the reception the staff did not seem to be bothered and the situation did not improve. I would not recommend a stay at this hotel and am convinced that you could spend the money better on another hotel.

I visited the Spa at the hotel, what a wonderful place! Absolute luxury and covid safe! A lot for your money. Would highly recommend this spa. Robes, slippers, chocolates, fruit, water etc all part of the small entry fee.

Diane Campbell

Beautiful hotel tastefully upgraded during recent covid closure. Hotel grounds are immaculate and foliage diverse. Staff courteous and nice to see some faces from a few years ago. On the negative side food not of the same quality as before and mostly always luke warm.Finally entertainment in bar area below par. Still enjoying our stay and no doubt will return but probably on a bed and breakfast basis?

We actually stayed at Cordial Morgan Valle which was okay but we only stayed there one night due to a cancelled flight. The room was way up the top of the complex meaning we had to get THREE lifts to the room. There is no air-conditioning just ceiling fans which, in October, is bearable but in the summer must be unbearable! Difficult to say more but it looked a rambling place which could possibly be good value.

It is our first time in Gran Canaria. The hotel was recommended to us by our travel agency of our trust. It's only the second day here but we already love it. The hotel is very clean and the staff very friendly. The hotel complex is extensive and you don't get the feeling that it is overcrowded. My husband and I already agree that we will come back.

Went back after 7 years and still a wonderful vacation.We stayed for 9 nights as a couple and the time was amazing.Hotel is still in good shape, staff is friendly, the food is good for a buffet but there is also a fantastic Michelin star restaurant on the premise.The mogan valley improved a lot in the past 7 years, now with many small restaurants and bars.

+ We absolutely loved this hotel for it's great location, beautiful garden, room and swimmingpool. We had a great time here and we would definitely come back!-The food is nice, but we have had better in different 4 star hotels on the island. Please bring a little variety in the music at dinner and breakfast.

It is simply beautiful, the staff is unbelievable friendly. Sanitizer dispensers all over the place, so there's no chance for covid. ;)Very clean. Breakfast and dinner buffet: simply amazing. Loved the service. Beautiful garden, pretty pools.You can even find cats here, they seem super friendly and are photogenic.

In our case it was very calm! Beautiful surroundings with amazing plants and greenery and birds. The pool was not working, which was only a benefit to us (contributing to all the silence).Check in was a bit slow, but it’s usual for Spain. Got welcome drinks and could enjoy a strange interior of the lobby.Food in the restaurant was great. Simple but good.Nice stay!

Really nice hotel, nice views from interior and exterior, beautiful gardens and heated pools. The stuff is friendly, breakfirst and dinner are really great quality and you can enjoy some gourmet 🙂 Rooms are clean and romantic (cheaper rooms might be a bit old). There are also elevators, parking garage, hiking trail, small fountains, bars.

Very nice hotel. Large and well maintained rooms. Veranda is also large with good furniture. Several good pools and play areas for kids.Very good breakfast!Minus for the bar, food and entertainment. Food from the bar is completely tasteless and boring, and staff does not seem to care about their customers.Tip, use the pool furthest away from Mogan center, life guard in the other one is overly active enforcing everything...

Feels Like It Was Built For Giants

It makes sense that this sort of resort has a beautiful spa, as well as 2 outdoor swimming pools. From the moment one steps in, it becomes clear that the guest is at the center of attention throughout their stay. And just as well, since the surface of the complex is a whopping 48,000 square meters!

Incredible Rooms And Food? Definitely!

Furthermore, the Hotel Cordial Mogán Playa’s décor is very attractive and bright. It boasts no less than 487 rooms. And what is more impressive is that each of them boasts a balcony. That being said, should you somehow grow tired of the breathtaking ocean views, there is no reason to worry. All rooms also have flat-screen TVs, complete with satellite channels. That is, if you choose to spend your time indoors. And with all due respect to the gorgeous rooms of this complex – that would be a real shame.

When you grow hungry, there is a number of options at the Hotel Cordial Mogán Playa. For example, the Tamarona restaurant caters to those who are fans of buffet cuisine. On the other hand, Los Guayres is an á la carte restaurant that boasts traditional Canarian dishes. 2 pool bars complete the picture when it comes to delicious meals and snacks. Of course, this also includes the lounge bar. And if location during your meals is something you are concerned about, don’t be. There is also a beautiful terrace on offer for all guests.

Hotel Cordial Mogán Playa – Treats Your Kids As Its Own

In the event that you are considering your options when it comes to the spa at the Hotel Cordial Mogán Playa, you will be glad to know that they include a sauna and hot tub. A wide selection of treatments is also on offer for guests. Massages are rightfully considered the core competency of every spa. However, wraps and aromatherapy are also strong suits of this particular spa. When you take this into account, it becomes clear why so many guests report feeling reborn after their vacation here.

It should be said that children are a guest category that the Hotel Cordial Mogán Playa pays special attention to. The fact that there are ample facilities intended specifically for children here is proof enough. For example, a children’s club (4-12), games area, children’s playground and children’s pool are all present. But, there are also early meals, teen activity programs, as well as babysitting services available. However, keep in mind that these will cost you extra. Other than that, you’ve got all the ingredients for a fantastic Gran Canaria vacation!
