Map & location
Las Palmas City, Canary Islands, Spain
Boutique Hotel Cordial Plaza Mayor de Santa Ana sits in the heart of Vegueta, the beautifully preserved old town of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Step out of the lobby and you’re essentially on Plaza Mayor de Santa Ana itself, framed by palm trees, grand civic buildings and the soaring twin towers of Las Palmas Cathedral.
From here you can wander narrow cobbled streets lined with colourful balconies, pop into tapas bars and pavement cafés, and tick off key sights like Casa de Colón, the Literary Cabinet and Plaza de las Ranas in minutes. When you fancy the sea breeze, the marina and urban beaches are a short taxi or bus ride away, making it effortless to combine culture with time by the Atlantic.
- Approx. transfer time from airport around 25–30 minutes by taxi or private transfer from Gran Canaria Airport (LPA).
Facilities
Pool & outdoors
This is an urban boutique hotel in the heart of the old town, so there is no pool on site and the focus is firmly on culture and city ambience rather than resort-style facilities.
For sea and sand you’re well placed to explore Las Palmas’ beaches:
• Playa de Las Alcaravaneras – approx. 3.8km away, a long curving city beach popular with locals.
• Playa de la Laja – approx. 5.1km away, a wilder stretch of sand on the outskirts of the city.
Local buses and taxis are easy to use and good value, so you can be swapping cathedral spires for surf and sunsets in no time.
Spa, sports & wellness
Given its compact, boutique footprint, facilities at Boutique Hotel Cordial Plaza Mayor de Santa Ana are curated rather than comprehensive, with the emphasis on comfort and style:
• Inviting lounge area – a relaxed space for reading, planning your day or enjoying a quiet drink
• Rooftop terrace with seating and bar service, overlooking the cathedral and plaza
• Free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel
• Lift access to all main floors
• Reception with luggage storage and local information
There is no on-site gym, spa or organised entertainment programme; instead, the hotel makes an excellent base to tap into Las Palmas’ own cultural calendar, museums, galleries, shopping and nightlife.
Activities
This is a city-boutique base designed to plug you straight into Las Palmas’ cultural life rather than keep you on-site all day. While the hotel doesn’t run scheduled activities or entertainment, staying here puts a huge range of experiences within a short stroll:
• Sightseeing in Vegueta’s historic streets, plazas and churches
• Visiting Casa de Colón, the Canary Museum and the Literary Cabinet
• Sampling local tapas bars, wine bars and cafés around Triana and Vegueta
• Shopping in markets and independent boutiques
• Easy access by bus or taxi to the marina, Las Canteras and city beaches
Ask reception for up-to-date recommendations on exhibitions, concerts and festivals taking place during your stay.
Guest services
The team at Boutique Hotel Cordial Plaza Mayor de Santa Ana focus on warm, personalised service, with a range of useful facilities for an easy city break:
• Reception with luggage storage
• Free Wi-Fi throughout the property
• Lift access to guest floors
• Restaurant with highchairs available
• Rooftop terrace with bar and seating areas
• Daily housekeeping, with linen changes and towel changes on request
Being a small boutique property, services such as late check-out, adjoining rooms or specific views are on request and subject to availability; the hotel will do its best to accommodate preferences where possible.
Food & drink
Start your day with a generous buffet breakfast in the hotel’s restaurant, where modern design is paired with warm Canarian hospitality. Expect a continental-style spread with hot and cold options to fuel a full day of city exploring. Highchairs are available for younger guests.
The star of the show is Terraza Belvedere, the rooftop cocktail bar perched above Plaza Mayor de Santa Ana. With the cathedral almost within touching distance and a 360° view over Vegueta’s rooftops, it’s a magical spot for a sundowner or a relaxed evening drink. The bar also serves food, ideal if you prefer to graze in-house before or after heading out into the old town.
