I going to be honest, this hotel may be suited for some. But I am miserable lol :) well not exactly I just get what I want or I moan.
If u go as a couple dont expect a double bed dont happen over there I had this problem moved to another room where they said there was a double bed and guess what 2 single beds. Hotel rooms are lovely balcony walls could do with a little paint work.
OK here is where I moan, food = rubbish. Everything in sauces, I am a fussy thing though lol. It was cold, not much option. Vegetarians dont go here mostly meat.
Drinks were fine :d
Cats are lovely except the black one he is vicious, they are cute I fed them and proud to as they are hungry they belong to the hotel by the way.
Area hilly, pain in arse to walk up the hill every day but oh well I laugh about it now and my legs are more toned :) great exercise
Entertainment is a little rubbish at times but so is everywhere, there's so much on near by who cares.
Maids were OK for first week when we left them tips but then 3 days running no towels, no toilet paper and no bin changed. I had to ask in reception.
Reception staff were rude to me did not like the fact he shouted at me as I said I was fed up of coming to him to complain over towels.
I am 18 years old and go on many holidays and I have to say I had a great time but I would not stay in this hotel again.
Go for it tho it is cheap and we were hardly in hotel except for bed, shower and to change. Food near by is so cheap 3 euro for full breakfast, 8 euro for steak and chips you cant moan can you.
Go to Chaplin's restaurant its fantastic
And you footy fans football bar is great every match even those 3pm ones.

This is a 3* Hotel, Where the food is o.k. the evening entertainment is mostly great, the acommodation is average and the staff are very pleasent, ( except for 1, the only rude waiter bloke, and guess what... he's a Brit! .
The Hotel is situated on a hill and believe me it is NOT suited for people who have walking difficulties.
By the way This is a 3* Hotel, not a 4 or 5, but a 3* hotel.
You pay for a bargain holiday hotel, and it is just what you get.
I went with my 60 year old Mum-in-Law & My 3 year old daughter Zoe and we had a GREAT time.
would I go Back? the answer is Yes.
If you want a change from the All-inclusive then SOUL CITY is a great place to eat and drink cheaply for all the family.
Dont believe all the bad things you read in reviews, people sometimes expect more, after all...This is a 3* Hotel...Get my point! Thanks to all who made my 3yr old Zoe so happy, and to all her 'Boy Friends'.

The rooms are a lot better now they have been refurbished. The beds are not up to much one of the mattress was very shabby we complained about it but nothing got done. Food was OK but got a bit boring with the same thing all the time. Location was fine it's next to the aqua land. Some staff was nice other's was well lets say they could have learnt to smile. Well Charmaine & Adele would like to say a big hello to Zoe they enjoyed every minute in the kids club and they miss you. xx

I'm 20, I stayed at the Caledonia Park in September last year with my boyfriend who is the same age, I thought the hotel was really good and excellent value for money.
Restaurant Food- The food in my opinion is good when you consider how many guests the hotel has to cater for and its all fresh, it does start to get a bit samey after a while but there are some nice restaurants in the surrounding area if you start to get bored with the food.
Snack bar food- Not as good as the restaurants obviously but the ice creams and toasties are nice.
Location- Right oposite the main water park which is good (but expensive), I must admit it is a bit of a nightmare climbing up the hill to the hotel after a walk but excersise is always good when you've over eaten lol.
All in all I think the Caledonia Park is a good value for money hotel I went once before this in 2000 with my parents and am going back for a week in april for my boyfriends birthday and am really looking forward to it.

the food in this hotel needs plenty of thought going into it. there were no vegeterian dishes unless you like salads every meal.very little choice for the kids and all meat dishes are in sauces.if you like chips you will love it here,because they are served at every meal time including breakfast.the hotel was cleaned everyday by the cleaners, although our room 530 was cleaned everyday the bed sheets only got changed twice in 2 weeks.there is a very steep hill going down to the strip defo a taxi ride back.the best thing in this hotel was the entertainment team chris,diego & zoe, but for them our holiday would not have been what is was.if you go for 14 days be prepared to take extra money with you to eat out at local restaruants.for those of you with a sense of humour ask chris to play you the yogi bear song, very funny but perhaps not what you want the kids to sing at school

I dont know where to start with this hotel it was amasing to me and my family
The room is allways clean the maids came in everyday. yes we saw 2 cock roaches but it took us 5 minuites to get rid of no big deal really. And the staff cant do much about it its nature.
The hotel food is nothing special but its not that bad if your only going for a week theres alot to chose from and you can get food at pretty much anytime
The location is good the view is nice to look at.
its a little noisey but you wouldnt really notice unless you decided to search for every little wrong thing in the hotel.
The staff are good they do there job and did serve you with a smile and they gladly make convosation as long as you start it and your not making a huge line for the bar
The entertainment was amasing i think that if you want to have fun then the entertainment will be good but if your not going to put the effort in then the entertainment staff cant do there job
But Chris & Diego (the DJ's) are halarious they are there in the afternoon to play foot ball match's, tennis, ping pong, basket ball, sqaush and play music during the day if your getting bored of laying around the pool
As for the night time entertainment its great Chris & diego play music host a fun quiz and do bingo (could win over 300 euro's) they are very chatty and very funny theres kids disco where Chris & diego teach the kids to do actions to the songs which can be funny
After thats passed the main show of the night comes on which was snake man, hyponosis, magic show, battle of the sex's (men vs women), singer, kareoke and a crap shirt compotitoin all the shows were great and with out the entertainment it wouldnt be worth goin but its well worth going
I wanted to stay for 1 more week because i think 1 week just isnt enough you need 2
So i would love to go back and cant wait until i do go back when ever thats going to be

Caledonia park- where do you start. this hotel goes from one extreme to the other. The rooms were plenty big enough as was the balcony which was huge, we were in room 533, the bathroom was disgusting- rust all over the bath no shower head. The kitchen area was also in a state of dis-repair, but all this negativesaid, it was liveable for 2 weeks.
The pool area was cleaned every morning and the pool every night.This area was lovely, the pool was a bit on the small side for the size of the hotel and if you wanted a sun lounger you needed to be waitin by 8.30 to make sure you got one and somewhere to put it.
The restaurant again was too small for the size of the hotel.
The food was absolutly disgusting most meats were in a sauce and any that wasn't was like leather. After a week of trying to get the kids to eat what the hotel called food we started to go to the local pubs and restaurants to have a decent meal.
The hotel entertainment was amazing chris, diego and zoe started at 8pm with quiz, bingo, kids mini disco and then most nights outside entertainment which was usually really good. then chris would d.j again till 11pm. kids enjoyed entertainment as much as tha adults. All in all we had a fab holiday but if you asked would i go back to caledonia park- Definatly not.

myself and my two children stayed at the Caladonia for 2 weeks. First time in Tenerife so wasnt sure what to expect. Our room was situated on the 3rd floor at the very end of the hotel ground, right in front of a very busy duel carriageway!!The traffic noise was constant what ever time of day or night. Secondly if your a big lover of chips you wont mind them for breakfast!! because that is whats on offer... The staff never look happy taking your plate from under your nose before you've had chance to chew the 'so called' edible food. The entertainment consists of 10 min quiz, bingo , kids disco!( well all of 15mins worth) and for the finale at 10pm a bloke with a snake or a 60's singing crooner!!!And no i wouldn't stay at this hotel again although Tenerife itself was a lovely place i'm sure theres better places to stay
