Hotel Cesar Lanzarote

We stayed for 4 nights at The Cesar Hotel. From the moment we arrived everything was perfect. The hotel is exquisite and the staff were so kind and attentive. The decor is an interior designers dream. The furnishings are so tasteful and extremely high end. The Eight and Bob products were luxurious. The sea views from our balcony were fabulous. We could also watch the spectacular sunrises and sunsets. The traditional food was cleverly styled for modern tastes and delicious. The regional wine selection was very good and the staff were very helpful in guiding our choices. All the staff were exceptional, but special praise must go to Dora and Mate.

This is a beautiful place to stay. It was our first time in Lanzarote; we hired a car as we'd intended to explore the island, but the hotel was so lovely we only ventured out on one day of our six-day trip. There are only 20 rooms, and we felt like we were staying in a large house with few people (in a good way!). There's much that is wonderful, and a few minor things that could be improved. The hotel and pool and grounds are beautiful, designer-led, thought-through and easy to use. There was some trouble with sun-shades while we were there - the wind was too strong for the sun-shades and was breaking them. This is obviously an issue that needs resolving, as despite the wind the sun was strong. The staff moved a sun umbrella for us, and were as helpful as possible and we were grateful for this. The pool is lovely, a real pleasure. It was cool and refreshing. Several days there were no pool towels available by the pool (the shelves were empty), and it would have been nice to be able to get a dry towel occasionally. The restaurant staff were attentive for drinks/lunch orders while you were relaxing by the pool. Our room was terrific - particularly the bathroom, a fantastic shower and lovely products - but the terrace was a real disappointment. It was very public and exposed, there was a sunbed but no table/chairs to sit and have a drink, and we spent no time there. The room was also warmer than was ideal despite the ceiling fan. If we return - which we hope to do - we would go for a room without a terrace and with air conditioning (some of the rooms have this). The bed was possibly the most comfortable I've ever encountered (I wish I'd asked for the brand of the mattress). Considering all this good, and the thought that has clearly gone into making the rooms so comfortable, the pillows were something of a mystery. They were incredibly soft and very lumpy and really out of keeping with everything else. Housekeeping was ok, but they forgot to leave coffee pods (which were brought when we asked, thanks for that), and then removed the two extra we'd been given the next day (which seemed oddly mean, given how generous the staff were); they forgot to leave pool towels; they moved some of our things for no reason at all. It would have been nice, in a beautiful place like this, to have had some kind of turn-down service, but there was none. But these are small points, and the room was lovely and a pleasure to occupy. Breakfast was wonderful - a great buffet, plus the option of cooked extras (mainly eggs). The omelettes were superb. There was an issue with flies on the buffet which needs resolving. It was a bit odd that you could order eggs benedict or a 'bikini' (ham and cheese toasted sandwich) but would be charged extra for these, though everything else was included. We didn't really understand the logic of this. But breakfast was a pleasure each morning. We had dinner in the restaurant each night. The staff were a delight, and although the menu wa

Spent an amazing morning at this hotel . A wonderful example of Lanzarote at its best . Full of local character totally in keeping with its surroundings . We visited for a Yoga and Brunch session organised by the hotel . Highly enjoyable . The brunch was beautiful with mostly local produce . Will most definitely visit again to stay and have dinner . The hotel is a great addition to the island .

We came for dinner here as we had heard so much about the hotel and were looking forward to seeing what it had to offer. Our booking was for 7:30pm and we informed the lady at the front desk that one of our friends was running a little late so should be joining us by 7:45pm or so. The staff seemed quite stressed and reminded us twice that, "they were fully booked" and we needed to tell our friend to ideally hurry up. My friend and I had a glass of Prosecco outside on the terrace first and some olives (you get 8 olives for 3.50). We wanted to have a look at the pool but were told this was not allowed due to privacy of guests. I like that they respect that, but seems a little strange not to be able to walk a little closer to the pool when no one was sat around it. We were the only table all evening on the terrace and inside there were some tables, but it seemed that they were ran off their feet and needed more staff perhaps. On two occasions we had to go inside to ask for things. The first time we wanted a little oil and salt and nobody came to check on how our meal was, so we went in ourselves to ask for this. Much later, they eventually offered us the dessert menu. Nobody returned to take our order, then when a waiter returned, he reminded us that he wasn't responsible for taking the food orders but he would try to pass it on. The dessert came later and the coffees even later after that despite ordering at the same time and asking for them to come at the same time. The food was beautifully presented, but the portions were incredibly small and the value for money is pretty poor. We shared a starter between the three of us (some Canarian cheese), and I had the tuna tartar. It was a very expensive meal and in all honesty, I have eaten in so many places on the island with better quality and service. It is a beautiful place and there were some lovely things about it. The German lady at the beginning showed us the private dining area and the lobby, which was lovely. I think in all honesty, in order to keep the business going, the prices / value for money needs to be looked at. Thank you.

Gorgeous property, an excellent chef at property providing delicious options, very good service without exception, and comfortable rooms with almost everything one expects at a 5 star hotel. We loved our stay and look forward to returning!

The hotel is absolutely wonderful. The decoration and situation are beautiful, with fantastic views of the sea and volcanic landscape all at once. The rooms are tastefully decorated and very comfortable. The staff are very helpful and friendly - we had a great experience with all of them, but special mention Mate. We loved our trip to Lanzarote. There’s so much to see and do from exploring volcanoes to visiting Cesar Manrique exhibits to wonderful beaches and more. This hotel offers a great base for tranquility and calm after a long day exploring. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to be back soon.

We just returned from a long weekend at Cesar, the hotel is very beautiful, the interior design is incredible. The rooms had all the little touches like robes, quality slippers, high quality toiletries, snacks. A shower you didn’t want to get out of. Location was super quiet and really relaxing! The breakfast was outstanding, lunch and pool menus were great, all of the staff were so sweet and kind. Just a great place to relax, a real gem of the island. Our favourite hotel that we have stayed in, we would definitely return!

I had a memorable five day stay at the Cesar Lanzarote. I was greeted by charming staff and shown to a magnificent room with a large terrace overlooking the beautiful swimming pool and the sea. The food and service under the supervision of Christine and Olga was also excellent. Lanzarote is such an interesting Island and there are some terrific walks from the hotel over the surrounding volcanoes. I am very much looking forward to visiting their two recently opened hotels in Menorca!

Incredible from the beginning to the end. Amazing deco. Close to mostly everything. I will come back and I hardly recommend the hotel and the island. The restaurant really nice worth it to have lunch or diner. Breakfast top!!!! Front desk super helpful. Cool ambiance Hopefully u will enjoy as much as I did if u stay in this hotel.
