    Fantastic rooftop terrace but be aware of the missing AC

    There is no air conditioning and the room gets unbearably hot without leaving the door open. The problem is that being in the centre, there are various noises at night that constantly woke us up. It is a bit annoying that you have to ask for cheese, cold cuts etc. instead of just being able to take what you would like. If you have a car be prepared to walk a ways from your car to the hotel since there are no parking spots near the hotel.

    The hotel is very centrally located and smells great from the moment you walk in. The staff is very welcoming, nice and helpful. The breakfast has delicious fresh baked goods. The standard rooms are comfortable and nicely done, if a bit small. The best part must be the rooftop terrace, which is alone reason to stay here.

    Nicely decorated, comfortable and well located. Very good value. We left our car in the car park on Avenida del Puente. If you park near the Jose Mate exit, it is only 3 mins walk to the hotel.

    We liked everything about our stay. We extended our stay several times and stayed for seven nights in total.

    We simply loved Banana Garden for its location, the amazing staff and the cosy atmosphere. The hotel is located at -what we found- a great spot in the middle of Santa Cruz. It is close to the beach (we could see and hear the sea from our balcony), and close to bars and restaurants while not being noisy. The staff was welcoming and knowledgeable; sharing many insights and tips about the island. We generally felt very well taken care of. The hotel felt personal and comfortable due to its small scale, dedication to local products, well-prepared breakfasts, and overall kind and relaxing atmosphere. The rooftop bar with its views was a fun extra space to enjoy. Many thanks!

    A modern building set right in the centre of the beautiful old Town, the hotel has a friendly bar on the ground floor where a generous breakfast is served. At other times it serves drinks, cocktails and snacks which you can enjoy on the roof terrace. Staff are very jolly and helpful. The furnishings are pretty much Ikea style, but fresh, clean and simple.

    We stayed the night between Friday and Saturday and it was very loud outside (people partying/yelling, there was even an alarm that was trigged) so it was not possible to catch sleep before 2 am, but this is probably normal since it is very central. Parking is quite far away and you need to pay.

    The place looks recently renovated. The room was very spacious and clean. It is central in the city. Friendly staff and good breakfast. The vibes in general are nice and the terrasse at the top floor is highly recommended!

    All good

    Lovely little hotel nestling in the old part of town just half a block from the sea front. Simple, Scandi-type rooms, very clean and fresh. Great little coffee shop/bar downstairs serving the breakfast, and also good coffee and scrumptious cocktails (try the platanito!) Friendly, helpful, English -speaking staff. Good roof terrace for relaxing

    My husband and I had a wonderful time at Banana Garden. Rooms are very cozy, modern, they were cleaned daily and were equiped with everything we needed for our stay. The breakfast was also very tasty, excellent coffee, freshly baked croissants, what more could you ask for? :) The staff was great, especially Sabrina, who gave us great recommendations which helped us discover the island. The hotel is small, and everything there was high quality with attention to detail. We prolonged our stay by 2 days, because we just did not want to leave. The rooftop has panorama view of the beach, which was beautiful.

    Balcony was a bit small to be useful. Some basic kitchen condiments like salt and oil would have been useful.

    Only heads up is that you must find street parking and S/C streets are steep and narrow. There’s lots of parking on the big diagonal blvd just past the end of the pedestrian street though.

    Excellent central location 2 blocks from the beach and by many restaurants. Big breakfast spread with jamón, queso, yogurt and espresso made-to-order. Lovely rooftop with a view and I could see the sea from my balcony too.

    There was nothing to dislike

    Great location, large clean spacious room with good facilities (fridge, hob etc if required), nice toiletries, a balcony and sea view. There was also a lovely roof top terrace. Great value for money and a lovely breakfast included (with Gluten Free options). The staff were all incredibly helpful, friendly and efficient, both before and during our stay. We’d definitely recommend if staying in Santa Cruz and will be back!
