Exuding timeless sophistication through neoclassical architecture and a colonial design, Gran Hotel Taoro transports you to a world of pure comfort and luxury in beautiful northern Tenerife.
Uncover a side of Tenerife that few truly experience. Set in the historic town of Puerto de la Cruz, Gran Hotel Taoro places you in the heart of the island’s lush, unspoilt north—where botanical gardens, volcanic peaks and a more authentic pace of life await.
