“Arreciefe. Hotel Lancelot is a gem”

This is a wonderful hotel in a great location. Close to all amenities and a great beach. The resort had an authentic Spanish vibe and wasn’t too busy despite the great Carnivale atmosphere. Hotel staff were hardworking, polite and friendly

We stayed here for a few days last week purely based on the fact we were so impressed with the place in December 2022. Unfortunately, the standards haven't remained the same. The walk up to the hotel was challenging due to the endless roadworks and removal of block paving. A detour around backstreets was in order with a final weave between railings, builders tape and cement buckets. Not ideal. The lady on reception kindly gave us a card to the room which was on the same floor as last time but the opposite side. First glance was okay but after settling into the room I noticed the door stop was loose and flew across the room on impact-heavy duty metal doorstop too. The sink in the bathroom must've been blocked as it took over half an hour to drain once the water had ran. The air conditioning, once turned on to decent setting, was extremely noisy which vibrated and echoed around the room. Both my husband and I were looking forward to the breakfast but even that had deteriorated. In 2022 the bacon, sausages and egg were cooked to perfection, this time - different story. Pale slithers of anaemic fatty rashers, rubber eggs and no sign of sausages to be seen. I was quite happy with the croissants though. On the whole, and on comparison, corners have been cut regarding food but prices have soared. Such a shame as we honestly thought we'd found a gem of a place a few footsteps from the beach, now however, it's like a poor travel lodge with a ninja warrior course to endure once you leave the building and meet the roadworks. A little disappointing.
