Tenerife - Mediterranean Palace Standard Room Review This On The Sixth Floor Take A Look..Playa Las Americas...

[@MichelleBaines-wg5sz]

Thanks a million Tez for the room video as requested…completely changed and updated ..you’re a star 🌟 this is the room I have booked so I’m really pleased 😊

[@tenerifetez2104]

You are very welcome.

[@davidmartin5099]

On first sight looks amazing Lack of drawer space and hanging space Make up mirror in bathroom but like to sit down and put make up on and do hair The safety deposit box is operated by door key ?how does this work if cleaner also has access to room Overall style over practicality

[@tenerifetez2104]

The maids key is coded differently to the room key so they can not access the safe. I understand the sitting down to do your makeup.

[@ShirleyAltoft]

@@davidmartin5099 i agree if me n daughter wants to get ready same time not enough space to do hair n makeup

[@marymags8432]

Room looks lovely thanks for showing it

[@tenerifetez2104]

You are welcome.

[@AlVlogs1603]

Cheers Tez nice room see if you get a look at the others

[@tenerifetez2104]

Hi Alan I can view some more rooms tomorrow and one of the disabled friendly rooms so I should be able to upload more soon.

[@AlVlogs1603]

@@tenerifetez2104 great stuff Tez helps do a compare and comparison

[@davymac5366]

Small room, almost a single in size, with about half the hanging space as normal in the wardrobe and no door. Interesting to see where the cases would go when you pull out that luggage rack.

[@tenerifetez2104]

I know what you are saying

[@annfox2854]

I am going to book for December. I was waiting to see a few videos first. I'll definitely book now! Great videos, thank you

[@tenerifetez2104]

You are welcome

[@owenmcdonald5922]

Can't wait to be there in September. Was anxious about it being ready. Room looks very nice.

[@tenerifetez2104]

It should be finish well before September.

[@MsSheila54]

Hi Tez. Another great video. The room looks really nice. When I'm in Tenerife, I usually stay at the Sir Anthony. Maybe next time I will try the Med Palace. Sheila

[@tenerifetez2104]

I think you will need to try this hotel and if you do please let me know how they compare.

[@ChrisEvans-pk7cu]

Hey Tez, firstly thank you for the videos you have taken, am sure all concerned like myself are very appreciative of them. Secondly apologies to you and all if this comment is long. Can you confirm that the plug sockets have Micky Mouse style ears on each top corner? As my wife and I know from previous stays that sockets were limited as we took cheap pound land style multiple socket extensions to meet our needs? Must agree with yourself and others that wardrobe space is POOR. Bathrooms are much improved though. Lack of draw space is bad. As for the safe!! Will wait and see. Nice to see the water features on the ground floor are now planted areas. BUT where is the so called swim up pool bar? Lol

[@tenerifetez2104]

I have never heard the socked called Micky Mouse before but at the top of the sockets there are both USB and USC ports and I will point out when charging my laptop bot these ports are slow charging ports which maybe ok if you are charging a phone over night but too slow for the laptop. As for the bathroom I feel the shower screen glass is not wide enough and when using the rain shower the water splashes onto the bathroom floor and you will need to put a towel on the floor. This is only my opinion.

[@annemarieelton2069]

Thanks Tez TBH think the room is smaller than I expected also the tiny wardrobe hasn’t got a door & very limited storage which would put me off Would be interesting to see other rooms in the hotel Like the colour scheme x👍👍

[@tenerifetez2104]

Some of the rooms are still being finished like the plunge pool rooms and could have viewed them had they been finished.

[@martinnaylor]

Room looks good but I didn't realise how small they are.😮

[@tenerifetez2104]

This is just a basic double room I think there are larger rooms but they will cost more, there are also several rooms with a splash pool which is nice but I would not pay extra for it when there is a fantastic swimming pool.

[@xxxstanstillxxx]

As long as yr not taking a cat…. 🐱

[@davidmartin5099]

Like everyone to small the old rooms were bigger and more hanging space you need a dressing table for women for make up not a work table from IKEA

[@Superindividua]

The new bathrooms are great and have a magnifying mirror

[@tenerifetez2104]

I think the question as been answered.

[@andygraham69]

Looks like they have scrimped on the rooms looks like a cheap travel lodge very dissapointed

[@tenerifetez2104]

Not my taste but each too their own.

[@royalrecordings4307]

Not keen on wardrobe without a door

[@tenerifetez2104]

No doors seems to be the norm now when we stayed at The 5 star Anthelia that was the same.

[@royalrecordings4307]

@tenerifetez2104 don't mind If there hidden for example the wardrobe being in a separate area

[@chrisdrake331]

Great video tez all the best 👍🏻

[@tenerifetez2104]

Thanks as always Chris.

[@paulbishop1249]

Booked for October, staying in a Suite, thanks for the review

[@tenerifetez2104]

You are welcome

[@ChrisEvans-pk7cu]

Hey Tez, my wife and I checked in yesterday afternoon. Faulty Towers had a better rating. Just to let others know I will be posting a review later on another well known site so your viewers can see as don't want to distract from the great work and videos you do.

[@tenerifetez2104]

Hi Chris thank you for your kind consideration it is very much appreciated, I am sorry you are not enjoying your stay at this hotel, I feel it was opened too soon because there are so many areas unfinished. I have the food videos which I will publish tomorrow and I personally don't enjoy cold food on the other side the staff are excellent and made me feel welcome and it must be very frustrating form them when everything is not right. I understand this opening was always going to have teething issues and I will be revisiting the hotel later in the year to see if it has improved, thank you again for your comment and take care. Tez.

[@ChrisEvans-pk7cu]

Thanks Tez for your kind words, I haven't done the other review yet, but let's just say my wife and I are now in our 4th room!! Yes 4th lol. The staff are lovely and very frustrated indeed. The other review will be done after we have left to give a full reflection of our stay.

[@SandraRoper-o2o]

Not enough storage space for me and my daughter! Normally there are bed side tables with draws and draws underneath the dressing table area.

[@vickireek]

I agree, extremely poor storage and I wouldn't be happy that my clothes aren't behind proper wardrobe doors. Rather disconcerting that the room key opens the safe? I assume the pass keys used by staff don't have this ability?

[@tenerifetez2104]

My wife said there was not enough storage for the kitchen sink she as packed!

[@tenerifetez2104]

My wife said there was not enough storage for the kitchen sink she as packed! As for the safe the maids keycard is programmed differently to the room card and will Not open the safe.

[@denisebucknall1591]

Beautiful room nicely done, but no dressing table & mirror to do hair & make up 🙈

[@tenerifetez2104]

There is a long mirror in the room but my wife says there should have been another one at the side of the TV. There is a large mirror in the bathroom though and the hair drier in in a black bag under the sink.

[@Rewind787]

Nice rooms! Surely if the maid can access your hotel room with their key, they can very easily access your safe if there's no number combination on them 🤔

[@SandraRoper-o2o]

This really worries me and we are there next week.

[@tenerifetez2104]

I have the answer for you. The maids door key will not open the safe they are coded differently but what I will say you will need 2 room keys because if you only have one and it's in the key card electric slot you will have to remove it to open the safe! That is ok when it's light but not good in dark evenings.

[@tenerifetez2104]

I have the answer for you.

[@Rewind787]

@@tenerifetez2104 Good point. I know you say they're not able to open the safe as they're coded differently, I'm just not sure if I could 100% take their word for it, especially with all the valuables that we all take on our holidays. Also, in some hotel rooms (not all) that I've stayed in, the key card electric slot will take any card that's in your wallet, negating the need to put the actual hotel room key into the slot. I'd never risk using one of my credit cards as I wouldn't want to lose it, but it's worth a try with an old card. Whenever it works it means that I can keep the air con on while I'm out.

[@Superindividua]

Hi all. Nothing to worry at all. The room keys have a specific code generated when checking in. The maids keys do not have this code but a master code that works only for the doors. These safes are smog the safest in the market

[@travelswithmygoprograemeha7031]

Thanks for the videos

[@tenerifetez2104]

You are very welcome

[@margiedoran2356]

It looks good you only sleep in the room everything looks good for standard

[@tenerifetez2104]

Well said.

[@orcaswaling1143]

Great Video, That wallpaper is going to keep Maintenance busy as it so light and will be grubby very soon and the Safe seems strange. Can you show us what is behind the Huge Glass Windows at the top??

[@tenerifetez2104]

I think you are right with the maintenance. I will see what I can find out about the penthouse suite.

[@juliewalton5062]

Really lovely. What more would you want

[@tenerifetez2104]

It works for me.

[@georgemartin9618]

I'm deducting marks for that sloppy tv cable and the non matching bedside lockers .

[@tenerifetez2104]

I don't mind the cable hanging out of the frame but a working tv would be great.

[@xxxstanstillxxx]

For god sake, they’ve just opened, go down and tell reception, it’s called teething problems.

[@stewartwalker9087]

very nice tez

[@tenerifetez2104]

Thank you Stewart.

[@markmulholland53]

When a Re you putting the food vlog on tez

[@tenerifetez2104]

Breakfast Is Now Served.

[@derekaldous872]

Nowhere near enough storage space. Have already booked here and a very disapointed with that.

[@SandraRoper-o2o]

My thoughts too, and also i dont like the fact all my things are on show , will have to keep a lot of stuff in my suitcase. Not good enough for a 5 star hotel. Really dont like this safe set up either, makes me nervous to keep stuff in there knowing the hotel can access it!

[@tenerifetez2104]

No room for the kitchen sink the wife as packed.

[@OH-HELL-NO...]

Priced the suite with small plunge pool ....£500 per night for 2 adults bed and breakfast ...Even reception staff at Cleopatra were laughing when I showed the price on their website...😮

[@tenerifetez2104]

Woo was breakfast in bed served with your own staff?

[@OH-HELL-NO...]

@@tenerifetez2104hello Tez. your contents good. Keep it up. Better than that Edinburgh guy . Think he was in Shrek. I just booked for another week when kids are off in October. Suite with plunge pool 365 euro per night breakfast only. Normal room 215 euro per night breakfast only. I need 2 rooms. I've just returned from Cleopatra. Will miss it when it's closed. October then back November. You want a laugh. Return Daytime JET 2 flight from Glasgow to Tenerife.... £975 per person. Prestwick Glasgow to Tenerife Ryanair...£ 770...Short drive to Manchester for Ryanair...£280 per person...

[@user-mj3gt8ij5k]

Room small compared to other 4 & 5 stars. Not enough dressing table space. Tiny bathroom.

[@SandraRoper-o2o]

I agree not enough storage space and no draws apart from 2 little ones in the wardrobe. Everything is on display! Defo not enough cupboards and wardrobe space for me and my adult daughter. Stayed in Cleopatra last year and there was loads more storage space there!

[@georgemartin9618]

I think it was originally built in the eighties when room standards were different from today .

[@tenerifetez2104]

The rooms are on the small side but there suites available.

[@cherylrichards5512]

Where's the hair dryer and is it a good one?

[@tenerifetez2104]

I could not find the hair dryer but there is on in a black bag under the sink.

[@dannywheeler2389]

Is there hairdryer in bathroom tez wife wants to know 😀

[@tenerifetez2104]

Hi the hairdryer is in a black bag under the sink.

[@jackiebrown1283]

I like it. just the location could be noisy

[@Superindividua]

Not at all. The new soundproof windows are like a miracle. Currently here.

[@tenerifetez2104]

It's not too noisy.

[@janetburgess8159]

Looks quite nice , was there a hairdryer?

[@tenerifetez2104]

Yes Jane the hair dryer is in the black bag under the sink I should have mentioned it, sorry.

[@danielacursaru833]

Expensive!

[@tenerifetez2104]

£151.00 half board per day.

[@ashfletcher8281]

Lovely isn't it

[@tenerifetez2104]

It's a nice hotel but it does have some teething issues hopefully these will soon be fixed.

[@1979denman]

I am shocked at wardrobe space .....too small for a double room and also no locker with drawers . To me storage is 🎉 limited ., I miss Cleopartra already😢😢

[@tenerifetez2104]

You could be right.

[@LincolnshireLass63]

Thank you for the video, but, sorry, I'm not that impressed. No door on the wardrobe? Where would suitcases go? A toilet that the door opens on to? Looks quite a small room, too. OK if you're on your own, but think a couple would find it a bit cramped. Also, not liking the fact that people in the next rooms can see over the balcony divider.

[@tenerifetez2104]

Maybe the Suits are better.

[@stevennichol7930]

Breakfast good

[@tenerifetez2104]

I will film it tomorrow and let you know what it is like.

[@stevennichol7930]

Great videos

[@Joe-zq6ql]

not worth the money

[@xxxstanstillxxx]

Then don’t pay it, you pay for location and that it’s new.

[@tenerifetez2104]

Possibly.

[@ShirleyAltoft]

Cant see many mirrors 😂

[@xxxstanstillxxx]

3 last time I counted. 2 in the bathroom and one large one 4 footer for dressing. Must like looking at yourself. 🤫

[@tenerifetez2104]

Sorry there is a full length mirror at the side of the long wood bench.

[@deniseteale5493]

Not Keen on the room.Not a very big wardrobe not enough space for a 2 week s holiday for 2 people.And he didnt show a safe.

[@tenerifetez2104]

My wife may have to leave some cloths in the suitcase
