La Gloria del Norte, Las Palmas De Gran Canaria Overview
La Gloria del Norte is located in Las Palmas De Gran Canaria, Spain. Rated 8.2 out of 10 based on 6 guest reviews.
La Gloria del Norte is a sea-view stay in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain, set along Carretera del Faro and suited to travelers who want the coast within easy reach. The property is described as being steps from Punta del Faro Beach, and that proximity matters if you like morning swims, late sunsets, or simply walking off the day’s plans. Reviews average 8.2/10 from a small set of guests, with visitors highlighting the overall comfort of the apartment setup and the convenience of having essentials close by.
Inside, the focus is on practical living: a ground-floor apartment layout with two bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and a flat-screen TV helps families and small groups keep routines simple. Outdoors, the terrace and outdoor dining area are where the location really shows, giving you a place to eat while taking in the sea. For connectivity, free wired internet is available, which is useful if you’re working remotely or need reliable streaming.
Accessibility is thoughtfully covered, with facilities for disabled guests and wheelchair accessibility listed, so it can work better than many older properties. Parking is available via discounted offsite rates and self parking is offered for a surcharge, which is worth factoring in if you’re arriving by car.
In the wider area, Parque de Santa Catalina is about 6 km away for a lively city-park atmosphere, while the Cueva Pintada Museum is roughly 7 km from the property. Las Canteras Beach sits around 8 km away for a classic stretch of sand and promenade energy. Best for couples, families, and solo travelers who want a quieter coastal base with a terrace, kitchen, and straightforward access to the shoreline.

Should You Book La Gloria del Norte?
Worth considering if you want a sea-view stay with easy access to Punta del Faro Beach and a straightforward, comfortable base. The 8.2/10 guest rating based on 6 reviews suggests generally positive experiences, but the review sample is small so it’s best to book with flexibility if possible.
Best For

- Guests who want a practical base for exploring Las Palmas attractions like Parque de Santa Catalina and Cueva Pintada Museum
- People who value accessible facilities and wheelchair accessibility during their stay
- Guests who prefer staying in a non-smoking property with free wired internet and on-site terrace downtime
Not Ideal For

- Travelers who strongly prefer to be right in the main tourist core, since key attractions are several kilometers away (e.g., Las Canteras Beach at 8 km)
What to Expect
You arrive to a sea-view setting along Carretera del Faro, where the main draw is being close to Punta del Faro Beach for easy coastal time. The area feels oriented toward the shoreline, so your routine can be as simple as stepping out for a swim or a late-sun walk and then returning for terrace relaxation. Inside, you can expect a non-smoking environment with free wired internet, and you can unwind with board games or puzzles. With an 8.2/10 rating from a small set of reviews, the overall impression is positive, but it’s not extensive enough to guarantee every aspect will match everyone’s expectations.
