Why so many recommend the historic Hotel Monopol in Tenerife.

How copy legally

The historic hotel, called Hotel Monopol of the oldest Tenerife resort is not a prototype for the history of Puerto de la Cruz. It's old enough though, as its first walls were constructed around 1544.

Many would say, that Hotel Marquesa or Hotel Taoro which closed doors in Taoro Park, a long time ago, were more important during the past of the oldest Tenerife resort.

Hotel Monopol birth house of Spanish celebrity

And, Agustin de Betancourt was one of most famous Tenerife natives and one of top celebrities of the Canary Islands and Spain who made history indeed.

This historic hotel is also a true monument for an era gone by.

It also was a theatre during almost a 100 years.

Its building style belongs to the most beautiful of Spanish architecture in Tenerife.

This city hotel has been endorsed as one of Tenerife 5 star hotels by many reviews. Reason for this are the immaculate 92 rooms, helpful staff and many delightful extras of the hotel. The rooms are not even big but, have ceiling fans, showers, television and comfortable beds.

Discover the hotel's generous, sparkling swimming pool on one of its upper floors. There, let your eyes wander over terracotta tiled rooftops towards ocean, sky or an old venerable town.

Enjoy peaceful parties at the historic hotel's games' room where chess tables are not amiss.

The owners of this historic hotel of the Canary Islands seem to go the extra mile to please tourists. By the way, the Monopol Hotel has been family run for almost a century. Fresh Hawaiian flower heads of Hibiscus, Frangipani or Cannas are sprinkled daily by the steps of the hotel's entrance door. They are part of the establishment's motto which thrives to offer more than the usual welcome.

Single not so perfect staff incident confirms the rule

By the way, I know a British gentleman who stayed at Hotel Monopol at least 5 times, whenever he came to see his young grandson in Puerto de la Cruz. He loves this hotel. Last time, a receptionist was not wide awake and had not seen the man's name in the list of guests when I called to ask to be connected with the room's telephone. The Englishman said that this was unheard of at this hotel. This wouldn't have happened, had I known the room number of the UK tourist, you know...
