Iberostar Grand Hotel Mencey opens in Tenerife

The Iberostar Grand Hotel Mencey has opened its doors in style with performances from the Choir of Saint Marc de Lyon and the Tenerife Symphony Orchestra, marking the grand opening of Iberostar second city opening. To capture the atmosphere of the hotel’s original opening in the 1950s, 40 actors took 500 guests back in time to recreate the magic of the 50s while also bringing a touch of glamour to the grand opening event. The hotel, the ninth to join the luxurious Grand Collection, was officially opened by Miguel Fluxa, executive chairman of Grupo Iberostar, who was joined by other dignitaries from Tenerife including the president of the Canary Islands Don Paulino Rivero and Ricardo Melchior, president of the Cabildo of Tenerife and the Jose Manuel Bermudez, mayor of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Miguel Fluxa (pictured) said: “We are delighted to open our second city hotel in Tenerife, bringing the quality and service guests expect from Iberostar to one of the top destinations for tourists in Europe.” Located in the stunning city of Santa Cruz, the five star Iberostar Grand Hotel Mencey offers guests fabulous views of the city, a spa and fitness centre and a gourmet restaurant with a unique colonial decor.
