MUR Neptuno Gran Canaria - Review
Mur Neptuno Hotel is located in Maspalomas, just a 20-minute drive from the airport. If you’re visiting Gran Canaria for one of the Gay Pride festivals

Distance From Gran Canaria Airport

Hotel MUR Neptuno is located in Maspalomas, just a 20-minute drive from the airport. If you’re visiting Gran Canaria for one of the Gay Pride festivals, this hotel is an excellent choice, as it sits right in the heart of the actio, next to the Yumbo Centre, where most parties, bars, and events take place.
The hotel staff are exceptionally friendly, warm, and welcoming, making guests feel at home from the moment they arrive. The rooms feature a modern Spanish design, and each one includes a private balcony. The rooms are equipped with air conditioner, coffee machine, flat TV and free WiFi.
Guests can enjoy a rich and fresh breakfast, which is included in the room rate. There is also the option to book half-board or full-board stays, with access to lunch and dinner. The buffet selection and cuisine change daily, offering a varied dining experience throughout your stay.
Things to Consider
If you choose to stay at this hotel during Gay Pride, be aware that the location can be quite lively and noisy at night due to nearby parties at the Yumbo center. Light sleepers may want to bring earplugs for a more comfortable night’s rest.
Transparency note: I stayed in this hotel in person and combined my review with additional research.
