Hotel Taburiente

Santa Cruz de Tenerife


The public areas of the 173-room Taburiente aim for a classic and traditional look, with a few dashes of modern style and Asian art touches. Rooms are pleasant and contemporary, if rather unexciting; aim for one with a balcony overlooking Parque García Sanabria. The hotel has several restaurants, including the recommended Gom.
