Best Business Hotels in Gran Canaria

The 561-room Villa del Conde is known for its striking architecture style that copies the layout of a traditional Canarian village, with streets, squares, fountains, and even a church. In addition to elegant rooms with upscale amenities and balconies or terraces, high-end spa, well-equipped fitness center, and three restaurants and five bars (most with outdoor seating), the hotel has nine high-tech meeting rooms, making it a popular pick among those planning corporate events.

This sprawling property stands out not only for its luxurious services and facilities but also for its stunning African-inspired architecture. Seven pools, four restaurants, and seven fully equipped meeting rooms, plus a free shuttle service to two golf courses, are just a handful of the amenities. Just be aware of the handful of extra fees, including for Wi-Fi, parking, and in-room safes.

The Lopesan Costa Meloneras has an almost majestic air, with ornate chandeliers, beautifully manicured grounds, several fountains, and a gigantic infinity pool that overlooks the nearby beach. All rooms and suites come with free satellite TV, but charges for the use of Wi-Fi and safes leave some guests feeling nickel-and-dimed. Though the resort has more of a vacation vibe, it does offer business-friendly services and amenities, such as four meeting rooms and a plush-chaired cinema, as well as the rental of audiovisual equipment.

The upscale H10 Playa Meloneras Palace has million-dollar ocean views, distinctive architecture, and sits just a 10 minute walk from the beach. Located on the southern tip of Gran Canaria Island, the hotel attracts couples and families, as well as guests attending weddings and business events in the hotel's many function rooms. There are elevators, but guests should also be prepared to navigate plenty of stairs throughout the hotel. 

Housed in a gorgeous building steeped in history, the 202-room Santa Catalina is an upscale property full of classic charm. A long list of celebrity guests have briefly called the hotel home, including Winston Churchill, Gregory Peck, and several generations of the Spanish Royals. Its acclaimed restaurant features elegant decor and attracts guests and locals alike, while three elegant ballrooms and four fully equipped boardrooms are available for meetings and events.

Formerly the Dunas Gran Canaria, this luxury option in southern Gran Canaria features a bright and appealing lobby with floor-to-ceiling windows, a large skylight, and stylish black, gray, and camel furniture. Built on a slope cascading towards the ocean, the hotel’s common spaces and rooms all offer panoramic views of the Atlantic. The hotel has six meeting rooms, and offers extra perks like free airport transfers with its higher category rooms. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout, and the hotel has a number of parking spaces (for a fee).
