Loved the stay, the cottages are beautiful and staff are great.

Lovely hotel with great staff. Some parts look a bit tired (eg railing into pool). Food was ok

Excellent bungalows, spacious, clean and well equipped.
10.0 / 10.0
The bungalows were spacious inside and well equipped. The pools, other amenities and activities offered were beyond what I expected. I did not get to have dinner here but the breakfast buffet was extraordinary and offered many options.
The only thing I did not like about this hotel is having to take stairs down to cross the lobby and then back up to the bungalows and all the ground level areas. I find this a design flaw and difficult to walk in and out of the hotel, specially for senior guests. The only ground-level option was to go through the restaurant and the in-out walkthrough seemed unpleasant.
3.0 / 10.0
The apartment itself is nicely furnished and has a decent layout. But it all comes down to the location you get within the complex. My front door was just above the Restaurant El Portalon which made my apartment super noisy. Even being on the third floor didn't help as they have live music every night. During the live music show you can't really use the apartment - it's just way too LOUD! Having a chat with your friends is already a challenge, making a phone call or watching TV is literally impossible. The music they play after the live show is also pretty loud and at some nights they didn't turn it down before 2 am.
I wouldn't book at this hotel again unless I'm sure I'll be out having dinner & drinks every night of my stay. Although the apartment itself is really nice, the chances of getting a room on the wrong side of the building are just too much of a risk.

Great stay, refurbished to a great standard. Wonderful grounds. Great overall hotel with lovely bungalows
4.0 / 10.0
Good solid choice 5 mins walk from the Yumbo centre, with friendly helpful staff, clean & modern rooms, a very nice pool (heated) and lovely views. If you’re not averse to strong sun, I’d suggest asking for a high floor (quieter) on the south or west facing side of the building, as the other side gets little direct sunlight.
Only downsides are the 20 min walk to the dunes and a crazy bathroom design which makes it almost impossible not to flood the floor after every shower.
5.0 / 10.0
we had a lovely holiday at Sol Barbacan. Food was great, rooms are clean and have all facilities. The staff are very personable, friendly and efficient. My daughter was impressed by the chef Juanma (apologies for the misspelling) and Ada from the animation team. Everyone was super cool and we had amazing time.
The hotel isnt located directly on the beach but a few minutes walk. There are lots of shops and small cafes around. Return private transfer to the airport was about £40.
We had half-board and drinks are not included in the evening board but the prices are really reasonable, in all F&B outlets

4.0 / 10.0
Very friendly people at the reception. The cleaning crew as well. They followed our requests and brought us everything we needed. We lived right above the lounge bar area and it was very loud late at night and since we had a baby with us that was a bit annoying. Also the elevator system was a bit weird. You had to take the elevator down to the lobby in the basement then walk up a long ramp to get out of the hotel on the ground floor. But all and all it was a very nice hotel with great service.

Good clean, confortable bungalow with private sun bathing roof and terrace. Good 25 metre swimming pool and additional 2 pools, one adult only. Gymnasium a bit basic but better than none. Food in restaurant of good standard. Close to jumbo centre and bars but 20 minute walk to beach. Good relaxing stay.

Great hotel in a great location. The bungalow does need a tidy up paint wise...they haven't been refreshed in a while.

The bungalow was great - accommodated 4 adults and 1 infant comfortably. The swimming pools were nice and there was a slide and swings on site too in a little park area.

Sol Barbacan is lovely! The food is amazing with lots of choice and it’s within close walking distance to the Yumbo shopping centre, where you can find shops and lots of bars! The drag shows at funny boys are a must!! The receptionist was very helpful giving us information for excursions and booking us taxis. We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment with 5 ladies, this was perfect for a group of friends wanting to explore the island. A little dated inside the apartment but very well equipped with a huge balcony terrace! The hotel room was cleaned daily and the general grounds of the hotel were always spotless!
10.0 / 10.0
Stunning apartments, close enough to the beach. Staff were mostly approachable and we had no real issues at all during our stay - which is strange as I like to moan. The apartment was spotless (with the option of daily room service if you wanted it). The pools were lovely and also very clean. Prices at the bar/s were quite steep. Local buses only run to the zoo etc until mid-day (which we wish someone would have told us!) however, taxis aren't very expensive and once you get a few miles out, the rocky mountain views are really something. Don't settled for the first shops you see if you're looking to stock up your kitchen. There are a few streets and a mall of shops for locals about a mile away (head towards the lidl and it's up a side-street before that), these didn't come up as suggestions on google, so be aware she lies! The local shops toward the lidl have more options for clothes and hats, socks, household things and food like fresh steak or veg. Gutted we didn't investigate this area until we were leaving! The Yumba center etc are OK for a wander but the stuff is over-priced and they see you coming if you look pale and a bit disorientated (Scottish). The whole area is very LGBT friendly, so we highly recommend this hotel and the general area for LGBT couples and families, looking for a friendly place without comments or stares. There's a classic amusement arcade about a mile or so away (a nice walk) rides, lots of pool tables, a pub cafes etc.

We had the top floor 2 beds apartment with great view just like the picture shown.
Staff are friendly and very helpful. Only one thing we were not happy was the mattress. Too hard not comfy. We told the staff and they added an extra layer on top immediately. Overall, good and would like to go back again.

We have just come back from our stay at Sol Barbican and I can’t really say too much against it! We stayed in one of the family bungalows which were very clean and spacious. My only negative about the bungalows was that the kitchen was very basic and lacked serving bowls when cooking for a family of four and the sofas were not very comfy either however apart from that, the maids cleaned every day (if you wish); towels were provided for the pool which is another bonus and generally a great hotel which I would definitely stay at again. The location to the beach was good; a 20 min walk where lots of other restaurants were too. The weather was great too! A great holiday!

As a family with two kids on a winter break, the heated pools at this hotel made the stay very enjoyable. Staff was helpful and courteous. Breakfast was good but dinner wasn’t to our taste, so we regretted signing up to dinner for the stay.
The apartment was comfortable and not noisy at all, considering that it is next to a busy intersection. Cleaned daily and in pretty good but not perfect condition.
Evening entertainment was mostly song performances and mini disco for kids. Enjoyable, but we have seen much better in other Gran Canaria hotels.
Their animation team was friendly and kids loved them(specially In Billy overalls).
It is a short drive to the beach or sand dunes and plenty on restaurants/ cafes in the area.
Overall, it was a happy holiday for us!

Good location - close to shops and restaurants.
Hotel staff were really helpful and friendly.
Beach is a 15/20 min walk away down a hill but good for a little bit of exercise on the way back!
Local bus service is great. Good for exploring the other towns.

Located just one street ( 200 yards ) from The Yumbo centre which offers shopping , restaurants and nightlife an a grand scale. Although all the bars and clubs within the centre are Gay owned and ran they cater for families and you see a very mixed crowd.
Sol Barbacan has a big family following and the staff ( animation team ) are bursting with enthusiasm to entertain adults and children alike. but equally leave you alone if you are just there to chill out.
We utilised the kitchen in the appartment with toaster, hotplate , kettle and fridge being very welcome.
Large appartments with seperate bedroom, bathroom and very large lounge space. Also extra large balcony / terrace makes for nice evenings sat out. although we were a couple in a room with friends in the next room each appartment catered for 4 people with 4 chairs on terrace 4 of all utensils which was as nice touch.
Staff at reception especially Guillermo was very helpful and went out of his way to arrange excursions for us etc.
Wonderful stay. The Bungalows on site looked amazing in the lawned grounds and if we returned would try and book a bungalow.
Only negative is that the main pool was very busy with sunbeds in many rows and frantic with children and noise. Given the size of the plot and volume of guests it could do with more areas to sit in the sun by a pool in quieter surroundings. A second small pool does exist which if it was enforced as adult only this may assist.

great hotel right on the main road of playa del ingles, ;lots bars shops for dinners breakfast and beers, only down side was that their wi fi was not good at all although free, may they need to look into this if possible., apart from that a great stay would stay again

Hotel was spacious and adequate but showing signs of aging in areas. Wasn't cleaned properly when we arrived at midnight but by no means unacceptable. Large balcony, living room and kitchen a plus, especially for a family holiday. Hotel staff were excellent and helpful throughout. Wifi non-existent outside of the lobby. The hotel was 20mins walk from the beach, and the location accessible to main roads to other towns. Parking is provided for free but a constant lack of space meant we had to park outside. The public street parking was free upto 10am, with €1 for every two hours parking or so. This would be annoying if you had to wake up to shift the car into the hotel parking lot in the morning when spaces free up. Overall, no complaints, but not memorable by any stretch of the imagination, albeit the island itself being nothing short of a must visit.

We had a very pleasant stay at this hotel, the staff were exceptionally polite and helpful. We are looking forward to going again in March of next year.
