Gran Hotel Los Abetos

Scene

Large business hotel with elegant decor

This elegant hotel with terracotta roofing greets guests with a large awning at the entrance, surrounded by lush purple hydrangeas. The spacious, grand lobby has traditional decor, yet simultaneously feels contemporary, with glossy dark tiled floors, Persian rugs, purple velvet couches, and upholstered chairs. Huge, spanning windows provide streams of natural light that brightens up the room. Various floors are tiered with balconies that have several comfortable sitting areas with a fireplace, flat-screen TVs, and armoires filled with books. There is a calm, almost serious atmosphere as many of the guests are traveling for business.

Rooms

Large, elegant rooms with sleek bathrooms and apartment-style junior suites -- but some carpets are dated

Standard and Deluxe rooms are large and bright, with plush, comfortable beds and dated pink carpets with an elegant blue pattern. The wood furniture is simple, but refined, with glass tops on the tables. All the rooms have dressers, flat-screen TVs, a mini-fridge, safe, and climate control. Deluxe Rooms have an extra sitting area with upholstered chairs. The bathrooms are small, but sleek and modern, with off-white marbled tiled floors and walls, granite sinks, a bidet, a phone next to the toilet, a large tub and shower with a glass wall, and a beautiful, rustic wood door.

There are two large, elegant restaurants to dine at, both which offer a buffet. The hotel has a tennis court, a chapel, a small fitness room with sauna, and multiple meeting rooms.
