We had a poor experience and multiple issues with our room and were informed by reception, \"sorry, this is the standard\"....

1) I accept not all rooms have a sea view, but ours was looking into a cliff face with virtually no natural light entering the room... For 230 euros! The room felt like a utility closet that had been repurposed. Unacceptable.
2) The room had a mouldy, putrid smelling AstroTurf 'terrace' that faced said cliff. See attached photos of the florid mould.
3) The WiFi in the room was broken / could not even load a WhatsApp message.

If this is the 'standard' that Occidental hotels holds themself to then they should reclassify this as a 2-3* hotel. I have stayed in cleaner, better 3* hotels for 1/3rd of the price.

We would certainly not recommend anyone stays here or mistakes it for a luxury experience.

It is a box-ticking \"4*\" hotel which on closer inspection does not live up to this grade.

We had a lovely stay at Occidental Roca Negra. The hotel is peaceful with beautiful, quiet surroundings—perfect for relaxing. The spa and pool area were highlights, and the food was delicious with plenty of variety. Staff were friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. The only minor downside is that there isn’t much nearby in terms of shops or markets, but if you’re looking for a place to unwind and disconnect, this hotel is ideal.

Very good hotel with excellent views over the cliff and beaches. The hotel is somewhat remote from the town and a steep climb back up. Food was ok but not the best I've had in a 4 star hotel. Vegetarian choices were available but not great for main courses. The terrace bar on the rooftop was great for drinks and watching the sunset but was taken over by a film crew for 3 days which was disappointing. Didn't try the spa. I would go again.

Disappointed

On the surface, the resort looks nice. Upon further inspection much is in need of a deep clean, fresh paint, or complete replacement of some items. We booked all inclusive but they were so strict about when and where you could get food or drinks. We tried to order a bottle of Cava to our room, but that wasn’t allowed. We wanted to grab a piece of fruit from the buffet to take on a hike, again not allowed. Wanted to mix a couple of the included alcohols to make an Aperol Spritz, not allowed. Asked house keeping for a bottle of water, not allowed. It was frustrating and disappointing. Finally, the food was nearly tasteless. We gave up and went to town for most of our meals. On a positive note, the staff were very kind despite being held back from being helpful. The view from our balcony was beautiful and Agaete is an adorable little town. Overall, we were disappointed and will not be going to another Occidental resort

Parking on the roads nearby, no difficulties with that. Nice pool and adequate gym. Spa nice and recommend.
The sofas and carpets need replacing, they look old and not very clean now. Otherwise rooms clean and bed comfortable. Good shower.
The first evening meal was a scramble, too many guests per staff member. I couldn’t get a glass of wine, they were too busy:-( .
Food was ok and on a couple of days pretty good. They ran out of black tea bags two mornings completely and plain yogurt also two out of our four mornings.

This is not a 4* star property by any means. The facilities are outdated and the rooms are simply and not up to date. We were upgraded to a junior suite which was lovely but I would not have opted to pay for this. There are no luxury elements to this hotel. The included breakfast was basic and tasteless. This would be far better if advertised as a nice 3* hotel. Amenities are very simple and it is not the kind of hotel/resort you would opt to spend a day in relaxing. The local area was quiet and felt very safe but if staying here I would suggest hiring a car to be able to better get to local areas to eat etc. The hotel also has no heating and is freezing at night. We won't be back.

Unfortunately, my stay at this hotel was far below expectations. While the room was lovely and the surroundings beautiful, several issues made the experience disappointing.

We opted for the all-inclusive package, but the food was consistently poor, often inedible. Both my boyfriend and I experienced stomach aches and diarrhea every day after dining, and we saw cockroaches in the kitchen.

We were also charged extra for burgers at the rooftop bar, which were supposed to be included and arrived cold and inedible. Additionally, the hotel does not clearly label food or allergens. My boyfriend, who is lactose intolerant, had a bad reaction after eating a soup containing dairy, which staff failed to mention.

To add to the disappointment, my boyfriend made special arrangements with the hotel staff for my birthday and followed up multiple times. Despite his efforts, on the day of my birthday, none of the planned surprises were delivered. He had to remind the staff again, which really detracted from the celebration.

While some staff were friendly, the manager was dismissive and seemed uninterested in addressing our concerns. Overall, the poor dining experience and unprofessional service overshadowed our stay. I would not recommend eating at this hotel, especially if you have dietary restrictions.

Interesting place- lots to like, but not the \"Zen Spa\" experience expected. Still very enjoyable. The drive from LPA was pretty easy for a US driver - I wouldn't shy away from renting a car - it was a straight and easy ride. I parked on the street, no issue there. Room was super clean, lovely view, comfortable, Netflix on TV. No wash cloths. Shower was nice, great shampoos and plentiful amenities. There were 2 bottle of water in the mini-fridge but they were not replenished, a little stingy considering the style of hotel. The facility really was very nice. Pools and outdoor furnishings clean, lovely and plentiful. 2 issues slight down side; the pools close early - around 7pm. And most of the time it was very, very loud. I understand that this may be a cultural difference - and certainly this is not a criticism. People were wonderful; friendly, warm, and enjoying themselves. But not a traditional spa-like atmosphere, so just be aware if this will color your visit. People having a good time is a good thing - yes! In the spa there were signs for \"silencio\". This lasted for about 5 minutes into my visit, after which people were yelling to each other in constant conversation over the whirlpool jets as I chuckled to myself in the \"zen pool\". No silencio. But great water jets in the whirlpool. The walk to the natural ocean pool is very very steep, long, was cold in May. But beautiful! But not for elderly or frail. Check your bill leaving, 2 dinners charged by mistake to my room.

Fabulous location on the coast with lovely views. Easy walk down to the port and to the sea pools. Breakfast - lots of choice including lots of lovely fresh fruits etc. Dinner - a weird selection of things - perhaps themed nights would be better to prevent the general mish mash. Lovely big pool, lots of sun loungers but very few (approx 10!!) parasols.
Some very negative points however
No drawers at all in the bedroom so it got very cluttered. (Very strange in a good sized bedroom - masses of room for drawers)
Two separate beds with no zip link facility so big gap.
Dreadful smell of damp and the air conditioning was not working. Engineer said all over the hotel was an issue. The damp was really bad - I partially cured it by putting laundry detergent down the drain and pouring boiling water down.
Bedroom was not well cleaned - lots of grime generally.
The strangest thing was that above the bed there was a huge rectangle of glowing light when we put the lights out.. so irritating as it made the room light. Also because of no air con we had sliding balcony door open and there was lots of light pollution from lights outside.
Getting a bath towel - the most ridiculous procedure.. have to pay ten euros cash, go and get a voucher then go and get a towel from reception... what a performance.
No live music as promised on rooftop terrace (which is lovely)
Waitresses were lovely but other staff surly and did not seem well trained. Restaurant is like underground car park

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The reception staff, particularly Alfredo and Edwardo (I may their names wrong) helped us when I accidently booked your two day stay for one person, when it should have been two people. Quite frankly they could have ripped us off to make the change but they did not do that. Instead they waived a penalty and provided us with a comparable price that we previously had, adjusted up for the extra meals.
The location is terrific, we enjoyed the entertainment, grounds, pool and especially the walk across the sand doons to the beautiful beach.

We stayed here for 10days and had two connecting rooms. Both were a great size and as a young family of 5 had so much space. We were on the same floor as the pool and access to the pool was brilliant. It was a lovely pool area, with a small childrens pool and an adult only bubble pool. There is also a pool side bar which you can get drinks and light snacks from the day and carlos was brilliant-friendly. I have to mention all the hotel generally appeared clean there was an issue with cockroaches. We found main dead in the corridor outside our room and had to kill two ourselves inside the room. We notified management, and \"extra cleaning\" offered for the next day although we had to remind them and follow this up due to staff stortage. I also spoke about this on check out and after the reception staff told management whilst we sat in reception for 45 mins waiting for taxi, no further interaction was made to us. That was very disappointing. We also did notice many smaller \"baby\" cockroaches which we exterminated after the two huge invaders. This was a shame as most other things were fine. It could have helped if the door had a brush on the bottom but it looked like this was removed and not replaced (both rooms). Breakfast was well-stocked and pretty much the same for 10days. Would have liked poached eggs and hollandaise to be an option but couldnt see this. The hotel is a fairly long way to the village area bit is worth it. The walk back has a very steep hill. Good 3 star not a 4

Friendly staff and lovely hotel

We stayed here for 11 nights in January and had a wonderful holiday. Our room was a superior room on the third floor with a sea view. The room was big, including a big double bed (two zipped singles - comfy and spacious), sofa, balcony overlooking the sea with plenty of space, bathroom with a great powerful shower over the bath, plenty of storage, mini fridge, safe, air conditioning, coffee and tea - in fact everything you could need. We stayed bed and breakfast and the breakfasts were lovely - great choice, plenty of everything, delicious breads, whole variety of cooked items as well as cold meats, cheeses, fruit, cereal, coffee, tea, juice - we really were spoilt for choice. Everywhere was clean and tidy. The pool area had plenty of sun beds (and not the ones that tip up when you sit on one end!). The pool bar was a great place of respite from the sun for a cheeky early sangria or beer and the pool itself was useable even in January. It was a few minutes walk down to the port where there were plenty of places to eat (in particular we enjoyed Ragu which was very busy but also very delicious) as well as a Spar shop where we picked up bottles of water and wine to take back with us. The walk back up to the hotel takes a bit longer as it is very steep, and also quite dark in places so we’re glad we had a little torch with us. We hired a car from Cicar for 3 days which was delivered to the hotel for us, other than that we sunbathed and stayed local. Great hotel , brilliant!

The hotel is in a quiet location, but some rooms suffer noise from Aircon equipment and pool cleaning equipment. Also, even if room Aircon is turned off there is still noise in the room.
The restaurant is a large, bare room across the road. There is a large choice of food from a buffet, and breakfast is generally good. Dinner also has large choice, but many items are of poor quality and main course choice is poor.

No real complaints - I guess the only thing I would have liked is a kettle with tea/coffee in my room, but this is a minuscule issue. Had a lovely time.

Good hotel with outstanding views all round.

It was hard to find the hotel as the SatNav did not recognise the road name, so took us to a different area of the town. Once we found the hotel it was lovely. The staff were very friendly and rooms were clean and comfortable. The only criticism of the room was the aircon was not very efficient. The outside pools were cold with no heating and there is no protection from high winds. The breakfast was very good and again the staff were friendly and efficient. The walks down to the natural pools, town and harbour were excellent however it is quite a climb on the return to the hotel. Overall thoroughly enjoyed our experience staying at this hotel.

Nice Hotel by the sea

Very nice and clean quiet hotel, good for getting away for some peace and quiet relaxing environment, good locating for walks and rock claiming by the beach. The nearest shops are at the harbour which is a good 15mins walk.
The hotel staff are nice and friendly, the down fall about the hotel there are no facilities in the rooms for making tea or coffee you have to rely on the restaurant first thing in the morning or the bar though out the day and night if you’re wanting a hot drink. The gym area is quite small five to six people it starts to become overcrowded, has this hotel is rated a (4.5 star)?

Comfortable hotel in lovely setting

It took us some time to find the hotel since we arrived late at night. We were met by friendly and helpful staff at reception. In fact, throughout our stay the staff couldn't have been nicer. The hotel itself is located in a quiet area with stunning views of the sea and the mountains. The rooms on the top floor have the best views. There was plenty of choice for breakfast and the buffet organised for dinner was good although the food itself was rather bland. If you like a sunny, peaceful break and love hiking, this is the place for you.

Great bed at least!!!

The room during the day was very hot. At night finally the A/C was good. Walls and floor are paper thin so heard all sorts of bumps and noises - NOT GOOD!!! Short cuts were taken in this 2010 hotel construction that it feels like it was built in the 70's and just made over badly.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. Price was great also.

Place to relax

This hotel is good if you want to relax and be away from noises and crowds. Agaete city is a small Village, but very beautiful. I recommend you to arrange your transportation from LPA airport through the hotel once the airport transfer is cheaper than the regular taxis

Spa disappointed that it was not included in room rate we booked in for the aft but when we when wevarrived they to use it we were told the cost was 26 Euro per person.which was almost the room rate price fo 1 1/2 hours.
Lovely area very steep steps to port / restaurants

Far from the madding crowd

Very quiet and certainly glad we had a car, Indifferent experiences with local restaurants. Hotel food choice was rather limited, however overall it was very good for what we wanted.
not being able to charge to room was irritating and pool bar food choice very limited but staff were excellent in trying to please.

Lovely hotel in a lovely area

We were a bit apprehensive as we are used to a high standard, usually staying in a 5* gold crown resort in the south of the island. However we were pleasantly surprised by this hotel and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hotel was clean, staff very friendly and helpful and a bonus being in a lovely location. The only draw back is that we had twin beds when we are used to sleeping together plus the sheets on my bed had a couple of holes in it. Water was provided daily and the breakfast was pretty good with a lot of variety. We even ate in the restaurant a few times as it was very reasonably priced. If you eat here chose one starter then havd ghe buffet, only €10 per person plus your drinks. The pool bar was very good and again could not fault the staff.

So glad I chose this hotel

From the moment I walked into the Roca Negra, I felt welocme and 'at home'. A fairly understated frontage led into a friendly Recpetion, with excellent multi-lingual staff who were so helpful.
My room was spacious, clean and had a tremendous sea view looking out unhindered in a southerly direction over the communal pools. Wow!
With my room came free access each day to the Spa and Gym, and I'd included breakfast each day for my stay . . . well that was just amazing. The manageress in the restaurant was excellent - it seemed that nothing would ever bother her, despite the fact that she was catering for so many people. The food was - you guessed it - excellent. So much on offer, all very fresh, all very beautifully prepared. Wow (again)!
The hotel was also frequented (at the time I was there) mostly by Spanish folk - which seemed like a great recommendation to me that I'd chosen well.

Wonderful tbrea at the Rocaa Negra & natural pools

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The hotel had wonderful scenery- volcanic, close to the beach and lovely staff, Gema, the chefs, all the kitchen staff, reception-Kathrina and the cleaning staff.I am sorry I couldn't name all the staff but I thoroughly enjoyed the hotel, walking to the town and natural swimming pools. Also met the owner- he was extremely nice. I'd recommend the hotel but suggest that hiring a car may be handy but then again if you don't want to drive, there are taxis available. One tiny suggestion, having a little electric kettle in the room would be appreciative.
