Location

The Hotel Santa Catalina was built in an English colonial style and opened its doors in 1890.
It is situated in the middle of a subtropical park and is located very close to the sports harbor of Las Palmas.
One feels transported back to a glamorous era, yet it simultaneously offers the modern comfort of the present day.
The historic old town center of Vegueta, with its restaurants and bars, as well as the Triana shopping district, is approx. 3 km away.
The famous city beach, Las Canteras, is also located at a distance of approx. 3 km.
The airport is approx. 24 km away.

Facilities

The historic, listed hotel (204 rooms on 4 floors, elevators available) impresses with its noble and high-quality overall design.
All premises are presented in a stylish and elegant manner, such as the lobby with reception, the piano bar with a chicly furnished terrace, and the buffet restaurant "Doramas," which offers an inviting breakfast for a good start to the day.
Additionally, there are the à-la-carte restaurants: "Poemas by hermanos Padron," which has been awarded a Michelin Star; "La Bodeguita 1890," offering tapas and regional wines; and "Muxgo," from Canarian chef Borja Marrero—the first restaurant in the Canary Islands to be awarded a Green Michelin Star.
The hotel features various conference and event rooms.
In the extremely well-maintained outdoor area, planted with palm trees among other things, there is a swimming pool with a sun terrace, sun loungers, and umbrellas, as well as the pool/snack bar "Camarote Poolbar."
Furthermore, the hotel features a beautifully designed rooftop terrace (adults-only, and during the day until 5 p.m., access is exclusively for guests in Junior Suites, Junior Suite Deluxes, and Suites) with an infinity pool, sun loungers, and the "Alis Rooftop Bar" cocktail bar with seating.
