Gorgeous hotel, very large hotel but still feels quiet. Very good service and pools are awesome. Everything is very clean and spacious. Recommended. I do hope it stays the only hotel of this kind on La Gomera though, to keep the charm and authenticity of La Gomera alive.
Where ti start… Fantastic place with great pools, service, elegant and very quiet… even its big, you almost don’t see other guests…. Always available beds at pool, very quiet…
View to ocean and Teide…
Its 4 starts and i dint understand how it’s not 5 stars…
Can’t wait to return..
This is an excellent hotel in every day. however it's let down by one major thing which is obvious from previous reviews. The distance from civilisation lets it down and has not been addressed by management. There is a specific timed shuttle bus which has to be paid for at the same cost as a local taxi. The remote location could easily be mitigated if there was a courtesy shuttle bus that ran regularly or on demand. There is a man on the security gate operating the barrier which seems little relevant value far better to employ dedicated shuttle bus drivers for free and there would probably no more negative reviews as it's a fabulous hotel and the food is excellent as are the staff, cleanliness and facilities

The hotel is wonderful
The infinity and swimming pools are great.
We did the tasting menu and flight of wines as it was my wife’s birthday all dishes were superb, there was a lovely cake left for my wife’s birthday on our arrival, the gardens are wonderfully designed and the view of mount teide amazing..
The key standout of this hotel were the staff, every single one of them were amazing. They all went that extra step to make our stay 5 stars..The customer care was top notch so I would like to thank all the staff for making my wife’s birthday stay and mine a unique and memorable occasion..
Thank you Hotel Bancal
Amazing stay at Bancal! The hotel is huge, green, sustainable, the view of the Teide incredible and the service excellent (thanks to Charlie!). We ate at the buffet and the food was really good and the staff kind and professional. Overall, the quality/price is unbeatable and we really had a lovely stay.
Modern hotel with a good range of facilities and offering beautiful views of Tenerife and Mt Teide. Well appointed rooms, although slightly disappointed by the lack of an iron and having to pay for ironing as part of the laundry service. I really like how committed to sustainability the hotel is - very impressive. The one area that could be improved is the food quality and service in the main buffet restaurant. There was a reasonable choice but the food was often lukewarm, dried up, or stodgy, so not the most enjoyable.
Great hotel in a good location. We had a Junior Suite and loved waking up to the view across to Mount Tiede on Tenerife. It was a very good base to explore the island which we fell in love with. A great holiday.
Very nice, comfortable new hotel. Good breakfast. Location is not so good. Service is ok for a 4 star hotel (even the hotel could have been 5 star, it is not).

It’s a brand new property. Excellent staff. Ambiance is great. Should be a 5 Star property.
Great getaway. We spent a long weekend here. And I must say this was one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at. The pools were gorgeous bad the rooms really clean and newly refurbished. I love the brutalist architecture and it was the best food on the island period.
Awesome facilities. You have to drive if you want to go to town as they don’t yet offer shuttle services ( they are working on it), but still pretty easy to get a taxi or drive your own rental car.
Very nice, new hotel. Good breakfast.
Service not 5 star (but also, this is not a 5 star hotel - it is 4 star). Fantastic view. Very nice pool areas.
A little far away from the city (or anything) - you need shuttle, taxi or car.
Everything was amazing! I really love our stay here. It would be good to write in the descriptions what is included and what is not, because it is not clear. We had to pay extra for the spa, which was surprising for a spa resort. But everything else was more than wonderful - both the service and the attitude and the quality.
A lovely new hotel in a stunning setting built to blend in with very imaginative architecture
Our room was very comfortable with very good facilities
The downside was that the bars had run out of tonic, our choice of wine was out of stock and even a large bottle of water was unavailable in the restaurant on the second night. This may seem nitpicking but it should not have happened
The staff were all very attentive and the general facilities and pools first class
Completely new, with big rooms and very cosy… our room was on 1. floor so no view and pretty far from lobby. Need totale 3 different elevators.. it very calm and quiet hotel, perfect for relaxation… but far from city and cant be there without rent-a-car…. Breakfast was bad, line for eggs was incredible long and pancakes never refilled during 1h….
A bit pricey according to what you get, (maybe because we we there around new year), but it is new, clean and comfortable with a fantastic view of Teide. Good pillows. Quiet. Fantastic sunrises.
Regarding lunch the menu did not have many choices and what it did have was a bit to “special”, so we missed some more choices.
Also.. Unfortunately the first day we called the reception more than 10 times in four hours to tell them we had a problem with the light that kept turning off, however they did not do anything before we packed our luggage and went to the reception to get a new room. We did get a new room and everything was fine then. Maybe it had to do with the owner who was there to observe, and everywhere the staff suddenly seemed very stressed and nervous trying to do their best (compared to our privious visit), however it had the opposite effect:-) Fortunately the next days the atmosphere where more calm again:-)
This property has the potential to be truly spectacular. We chose it for the final few days of our holiday, hoping to do some work planning and enjoy a soft landing before heading home.
The setting and design are stunning—cozy beds, beautifully landscaped gardens, incredible concrete work, and thoughtfully chosen furniture and decor. However, we found the lack of privacy disappointing. The shower and toilet areas had no walls, only glass, and the lounge chairs were just a few feet from our neighbors, which felt uncomfortably close.
Wi-Fi was a major challenge. It was spotty at best, which made our work-focused visit difficult and frustrating. This property is not ideal for a working vacation.
While I’d read reviews mentioning limited restaurant access, it was still surprising that such a large facility with four restaurants offered so little selection, restricted hours, and an overall lack of flexibility. Rather than feeling welcomed, we frequently encountered a “no” instead of a “let’s make it work” attitude from staff.
That said, the hydrotherapy circuit and spa were the highlights of our stay—both were absolutely wonderful. Overall, while there’s much to love, the experience fell short in key areas that could easily be improved
We had a lovely stay at the hotel, the rooms are large and balconies have a great view of El Teide. Buffet breakfast and dinner have an excellent selection of good food, and the service is generally very good with staff all very helpful and friendly. The pools were great too although it was slightly windy during our stay.
The only issues were (1) we were told when we checked in that we had a free spa session, the man who checked us in double-checked and confirmed that. We booked the spa and it is an excellent experience. Unfortunately however, when we checked out we were charged for the spa session and when we explained that we'd been told on checking in that we had a free session the woman on the desk just said 'that was a mistake' and charged us the full price. This is not good enough for a 4 star hotel - if they tell you that you have a free spa session they should honour that even if it is a mistake, or at least give a discount due to their error.
(2) we had a meal at the a-la carte restaurant and while the food was very good unfortunately the service was very poor: there was only two staff working front of house and they had to everything, including greeting and seating guests, making and serving drinks and serving and clearing food. This meant there was a huge delay after a while and new guests were left waiting for about 15 minutes at the entrance, while we had to wait about 30 minutes after finishing our main course before they asked if we wanted dessert.
