Which room to book at Parador de Cruz de Tejeda
A Standard Double on the caldera side, with a terrace. The view is the reason to come, most rooms face it, and the hotel pictures a Standard Double terrace looking across the caldera with the Roque Nublo on the skyline, so the entry category can already buy what the Parador is for. At €101 for two on a midweek night in June, room only, it leaves room in the budget for the spa and dinner.

More room than the Standard, with a terrace in the hotel's own pictures, but no better view promised.
Private terrace in the hotel's photos, looking west to Teide above the cloud
Junior Suite
The only category pictured with a separate sitting room and a canopy bed. Space and comfort for a longer stay, not a different outlook.

Why this one
The Parador sells four categories, and its pages separate them by space and furnishing, not by outlook. Most rooms, though not all, face the Tejeda caldera, and the hotel's photographs show terraces in all four categories, among them a Standard Double terrace looking across the caldera with the Roque Nublo on the skyline. That is the argument for the entry room: the view is what you come for, and it is available at the bottom of the ladder, at €101 for two, room only, on a June weeknight.
Above it, the Superior Double adds room, and the Junior Suite is the only category pictured with a separate sitting room and a canopy bed; the hotel's terrace photographs for both look west across the caldera, where Teide on Tenerife shows above the cloud on clear days. Neither is priced here, and the hotel publishes no sizes for any category, so the step up is about space and comfort rather than what you see. The accessible double, sold as Accesible, is an adapted room with a terrace, and the building has a lift.
- Ask for
- A Standard Double on the caldera side with its own terrace: the hotel pictures one looking towards the Roque Nublo, but it does not promise a terrace, or the caldera, in every room. Ask when you book and again at check-in, and if the view is the point, say that you would rather not have an attic room.
- Avoid
- An attic room under the wooden roof if the view is the point, as the hotel pictures none with a terrace and one looking into the pines. Do not pay for the Junior Suite expecting a better outlook, because it buys space, not view. And do not count on strong Wi-Fi or English-language television in the room, which guests report as weak or missing.
Suites against rooms
The Junior Suite is the one suite category: a separate sitting room, a canopy bed and an outdoor terrace in the hotel's photographs, which look west over the caldera towards Teide above the cloud. It is the room for a longer stay or an occasion. For the view alone, a Standard Double on the caldera side does the same job.

Our verdict
Book it for two or three nights above the clouds, with the Roque Nublo at the end of the view and a spa to come back to. Skip it if you want a beach, a free pool or certain sun.
