Breakfast
However, there are notable areas for improvement. Many guests found the breakfast to be basic and lacking in variety. Specific critiques mentioned the limited selection, poor quality and overpriced nature of the breakfast buffet. Some described the offerings as "mediocre," "scarce," and "below average," with specific complaints about items like undercooked bacon, watery eggs and low-quality croissants. The need for additional options such as almond milk, soy milk and vegetarian sandwiches was also highlighted.
Additionally, some reviews mentioned that the breakfast area itself was small and not particularly inviting and that the breakfast starting time of 9:30 a.m. was inconveniently late. There were recommendations for improving the quality and variety of the breakfast to enhance the overall guest experience.
In summary, while some guests enjoyed their breakfast experience, the general consensus suggests that the hotel could benefit from improving both the variety and quality of its breakfast options.
Dinner
The pool bar, despite being praised for good food and handcrafted pizzas, suffers from limited variety and closes early at 5 pm, leaving guests with fewer options after this time. There are complaints about the price of drinks being disproportionate to what's offered and the food selection could benefit from more variety and quality, given criticisms that it's not great and could definitely improve.
Outside the premises, the area offers a wide range of dining options with many nearby restaurants and cafes, albeit the lively nightlife includes clubs playing music until the early hours, which may not be ideal for guests seeking tranquility during dinner time.
Overall, while the poolside dining receives accolades, particularly for specific dishes like the Sunday paella, the general food experience at the hotel could be refined to match the quality expected by many guests.
Rooms
Despite the commendable cleanliness and room size, several guests pointed out the outdated condition of the furnishings and facilities, mentioning that the rooms could benefit from a renovation. The lack of essential amenities such as mini bars, adequate kitchen supplies and iron or hairdryers was also noted. Noise levels from outside and within the hotel were another common concern for those seeking a peaceful stay.
In terms of specific features, the spacious terraces and separate living rooms of the junior suites received positive feedback with guests enjoying the sunny outdoor spaces these provided. However, issues like faulty air conditioning, broken pillows and uncomfortable bedding were mentioned, suggesting that comfort levels can vary.
Overall, while the rooms are generally well-regarded for their size and cleanliness, there's a clear need for updates and improvements to the fixtures, soundproofing and additional amenities to enhance the overall guest experience.
Beds
However, the practice of pushing two single beds together to form a double bed was a point of contention for several guests. This arrangement often resulted in discomfort with some beds dipping in the middle and causing guests to slide towards the center. The issue of uncomfortable pillows was also raised multiple times with guests noting that they were either too soft or in need of replacement.
While housekeeping was diligent in cleaning the beds daily, concerns were raised about the comfort of the pillows and the fit of the sheets, which sometimes came loose during the night. Despite these issues, many guests still found the beds to be comfortable enough to sleep well. The overall sentiment suggests that improvements in the type of beds and pillows could enhance the sleeping experience at the hotel.
Cleanliness
The cleaning staff receive consistent commendations for their diligence, thoroughness and friendly demeanor, playing a crucial role in maintaining the hotel's impeccable hygiene. There is a particular mention of outstanding service from specific staff members like Kelvin and Luis.
However, several reviews indicate a need for updates and better maintenance, especially in common areas and some hotel facilities. Issues such as dirty walls, deteriorated furniture and outdated decor are noted. Instances of specific maintenance problems like cracked tiles in the pool area, faulty door handles and drainage odors in bathrooms were also reported, detracting from the otherwise positive comments on cleanliness.
Overall, while the hotel excels in cleanliness and the housekeeping staff are particularly commended for their hard work, there are areas that require attention and improvement to enhance the overall guest experience further.
Staff
The housekeeping team is noted for their meticulous work, ensuring rooms are clean and well-maintained. The pool bar staff also garner positive mentions, described as friendly and professional, contributing to a welcoming atmosphere around the pool area. The chef's cooking skills are lauded, adding to the overall positive experience.
While a few reviews mention distant or indifferent staff and some responsiveness issues from senior staff, the overwhelming consensus is that the majority of the team is attentive, approachable and eager to help. The excellent service extends throughout the hotel, from the front desk to room service, making guests feel valued and well-cared for during their stay.
Wi-Fi
Some visitors found the Wi-Fi on specific floors, such as the 4th floor, to be particularly problematic with suggestions that the system requires an upgrade to meet modern standards. The need for a more reliable connection was emphasized especially by those needing internet for work. Despite some guests not indicating major complaints, the overall impression suggests that the hotel's Wi-Fi service would benefit from significant improvements to ensure a consistently positive experience.
Pool
However, several reviews point out the need for maintenance and improvements. Numerous guests noted issues such as loose and broken tiles, non-functioning parasols and worn-out sunbeds. Complaints about the cold, unheated pool water were frequent with some suggesting that the pool and Jacuzzi should be heated, especially during colder months. The pool area is also described as a bit dated and in need of refurbishment with recommendations for simple renovations and better upkeep.
While the pool area had moments of loud music, which some guests enjoyed, others found it too loud and disruptive. Despite these drawbacks, the overall pool environment remains a popular feature among visitors, albeit with significant room for improvements to enhance guest satisfaction.
3 Star
Value for money is highlighted positively, making it a good mid-range option in the area. The hotel, however, could benefit from more attention to maintenance, but for those seeking a simple and budget-friendly stay, it remains a solid choice. Guests highly recommend it, particularly for its location and practical features.
Adult Only
Guests are advised that the hotel is predominantly frequented by gay men, making it an ideal stay for LGBTQ+ travelers looking to explore Maspalomas, especially its vibrant nightlife around the Yumbo Centrum.

The hotel offers large, cozy rooms that add to its appeal as a prime choice for adult-only vacations. Despite minor noise issues and misunderstandings regarding designated nude zones, the overall atmosphere is characterized as relaxed and enjoyable. Many guests express their intent to return, solidifying Hotel Ritual Maspalomas as one of the best choices for an adult-only stay in the area.
Outdoor Pool
Dog Friendly
However, it is worth noting that dogs are not allowed in certain areas such as the pool, breakfast area or solarium.
