Me and my husband chose this hotel for our honeymoon and we couldnt be more happier with it.

We stayed on half board I think next time we will stay all inclusive.

Our room was huge we had a jacuzzi in our bathroom and a huge king size bed our balcony/terrace was situated next to the pool.

When we arrived we got a glass of champagne each and when we had settled into our room 2008 the waiter brought us a bottle of complimentary champagne from the hotel manager, this really made an excellant impact on our honeymoon.

This hotel was really clean our room was cleaned every day and also the cleaners were really friendly too.

My husband especially loved the buffet style meals he was spoilt for choice.

The location of this hotel is excellant. The panoramic lift down to the promenade is such a great idea but you need to be aware of it closing at 11:30pm if your out and about in peurto rico get a taxi back for 3 euros.

i didnt really pay much attention to the hotel entertainment until our last night where we went to see the hypnotist, he was excellant I got hypnotised and won a bottle of champagne.

overall this holiday experience was excellant and me and my husband both agree that we are definately coming back in 2009.

Gloria Palace is under-rated as 4 star it most definately is a 5 star.

Spent a fab week on an all inclusive basis at this hotel. Staff very friendly,helpful and informative.
Both check in and out very smooth. Booked two rooms which were large very clean with exceptional sea views and very private baloconies.

Dining is buffet style the food served was of a good standard with a varied choice,even fussey eaters will find something to eat.The hotels many bars provided a good standard of service with attentive bar staff and a great cocktail menu.

There are 2 swimming pools with plenty of sunbeds a great spa, pharmacy and shops selling an array of good quality fashion items. The hotel provides varied evening entertainment for young and old. All in all i found this to be a great hotel that is suitable for couples,singles and families holidays. I throughly enjoyed my stay and will be visiting again in november

A very clean well run hotel.

Lots of choice of food. Plenty of room at the pools.

The hotel was well run, food was of a wide selection and very fresh. people on half board basis could if they wish swop dinner for lunch.
Hotel was immaculate and the staff were efficient.
Views at the hotel are excellent, and the entertainment was good but loud, which is of open plan to the foyer.

This is a very well run hotel.

We found the staff on the front desk first class, however there was the odd grumpy waiter.

The food was of a good standard with plenty of choice.

This hotel is less than 5 mins from the habour .Watch out for the lift from the prom closing at 11.30pm.(its a steep hill).

The rooms are large and all have a sea view, however typical of hotels that don't use carpets noise does travel

Just got back from this hotel and we were very impressed with the hotel.

We stayed all inclusive and I would highly recommend everyone doing this. There was a fantastic buffet choice, for breakfast, lunch and dinner in the main restaurant for even the fussiest of eaters like my mum!

You can have a variety of choice of drinks from the restaurant and the pool bars/bars without being restricted to the amount you consume, whether non-alcoholic or alcoholic. The hotel was kept spotless throughout.

The staff were very efficient and nothing was too much trouble. Pool towels were free with a refundable deposit of 5 Euros per towel.

The views from the hotel are fantastic overlooking the sea. It takes about 10 minutes to walk to Amadores beach uphill/downhill! and about the same, to Puerto Rico small marina and beach.

Our small negative points about the hotel were the entertainment, as this was usually mainly just singers and children discos and the adult entertainment didn't start until 11pm. We were disappointed the hotel rooms did not have tea and coffee making facilities but the free fridge did help make up for this if you like cold drinks.

The hotel has two lovely pools with plentiful supply of sunbeds.

If you are a naturist the hotel also has a section partitioned off for privacy, for the sole use of naturists.

The nearest shops and bars were in puerto rico, about 15/20 minute walk or the easiest way 2.5 euros each way in a taxi.

The Hotel was fantastic and I would recommend it to anyone who wants good food and accomodation, aslo the ammenities were very good plenty of sun lounges and the staff were very friendly.

Overall we had a very good enjoyable holiday.
and would not hesitate to book again.

Once again we took the advice of your reviewers, and we were not disappointed! The bedrooms were large and the beds were comfortable, being changed practically every day. As with the rest of the hotel, the cleanliness was first rate.

The food selection and quality were excellent; the two outdoor swimming pools were warm and of a good size, and there were plenty of sunbeds around both areas.

The view from all rooms was fabulous as they all overlooked the sea. The glass lift to the promenade was also excellent, and within three minutes we were in Puerto Rico. The buses were also very frequent to all places and the stop was about five minutes from the hotel.

All nationalities were there, as well as all ages, from babes in arms to golden oldies, and everyone seemed to enjoy the hotel.

We did not stay for any of the entertainment, so could not really comment on that.

A brilliant hotel!

We have just returned from the Gloria Palace Amadores. We went for a week on an AI basis with our 1 year old daughter. This hotel should be 5 star in our opinion - it is much better than many 5* we have visited in Europe.

Where shall I start:-

VIEWS - just to die for the hotel is surrounded by panoramic views of the sea with floor to ceiling glass windows. In the salon lounge bar the glass doors fold back to reveal the best view I have ever seen and the room melts into the sea.

ROOMS - we had a gorgeous room, very large overlooking the sea on the 4th floor. It was massive with double bed sofa bed and table and chairs

FOOD - superb there is international cuisine each night to supplement the usual show cooking and unlimited buffet tables - the restaurant is spotless - there is also a lobby bar and pool side snack bar.

ENTERTAINMENT - excellent for the kids - full day time animation programme and then a mini event until 10 30pm including clowns, Tina's mini disco and live duo - at 10.30 the main show starts which ranged from parrot shows, fashion shows, Mr Gloria Palace, viva las Vegas night (excellent) and acrobatics.

ALL INCLUSIVE PROGRAMME - what can I say we spent nothing only on gifts we brought back everything is all in - oh tell a lie they have a thalassotherapy centre and I had a few beauty treatments superb value for money in a top of the range health club.

SWIMMING POOLS - very clean, loads of beds and parasols and even a raised terrace area - perfect for the baby in the heat - it was great weather in the high 70s every day - quite humid at night

LIFT - this glass lift takes you straight to the promenade path. Turn right to Amadores beach - fantastic bay lined with usual souvenirs and beach things - takes about 5-10 minutes depending on how fast you walk. Turn left and Puerto RICO is about 300m - literally 2 minutes to the harbour. All in ALL one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at.

We went all inclusive.

Hi just returned home from the Gloria Palace, Amadoras. Had a brilliant time. Fabulous weather.

The hotel was fantastic, large rooms overlooking the sea. I travelled with my husband and 6 year old grandson and met at the hotel my son and new daughter in law as they got married 10 days before we arrived. There was 13 in total between my family and the brides. Plenty of wardrobe space for the three of us. Loverly comfy beds.

The food was excellent, the desserts were nearly the same every night but saying that there was plenty to choose from. breakfast was fine too even champagne a couple of mornings. Lunch was nice too or you could get burgers chips etc from the snack bar by the upstairs pool. The pools were lovely all the same height through them as i don't swim that was great as there was no big drop to it getting deeper.

The beach was only about ten minutes away too. Very near Puerto Rico too.

The only fault I found was the evening entertainment, ok for the children as they had mini disco, then a film and then in to watch the adult entertainment. For the adults well some of it wasn't bad but on the whole it was bad. There was a duo playing in between mini disco and the main show and to say peters and lee were better would be an understatement. After they began again after the main show they could clear a room in five minutes. And the main show was well we had a fashion show as it one night. Also they did the second week the same shows as the first. Loved the hotel fantastic views but the entertainment really needs a good looking at.

Will go again but will go out in the evening.
