Location

In the old town of Las Palmas

Taoyo Suites is located in the center of Triana, a historic neighborhood in the city’s old town (Vegueta-Triana) that was founded in the XV century and has been designated an “asset of cultural interest” since 1990.

Triana boasts great architectural beauty and a rich commercial tradition, including unique spaces and buildings such as the San Telmo park and chapel, Island Council of Gran Canaria, Gabinete Literario, cathedral, Santa Ana Square, Casas Consistoriales, Christopher Columbus Museum, Santo Domingo Square, Island Library, Pérez Galdós Theater, and San Francisco Church.

‘Trianear’

A neighborhood for enjoying culture, leisure, and shopping

“Trianear,” roughly translated as “going out in Triana,” is a favorite pastime of Las Palmas locals for many reasons. For example: an excellent climate all year long and multiple streets, cobblestone alleys, and pedestrian squares brimming with life, where you can take advantage of a wide range of cultural activities, restaurants, and the best shopping in the city.

Museums

Close to the most emblematic museums

Museo Canario: created in 1879 in response to a growing interest in “Canarian antiquities” among the city’s bourgeoisie. The museum houses a permanent monographic exhibition on Gran Canaria’s aboriginal people.

Casa de Colón: narrates the journeys of Christopher Columbus, his passage through the Canary Islands, and the history of the Canaries as it relates to the discovery of America.

Casa Museo Pérez Galdós: a museum in the house where Benito Pérez Galdós, one of the greatest Spanish authors of all time, was born and lived until the age of 19.

Museo Castillo de Mata: a museum dedicated to “the city and the sea,” housed in one of the fortresses that protected Las Palmas from enemy attacks for centuries. It also is the only remaining fragment of the city’s ancient wall, the “Muro del Real,” which you can spot from Taoyo Suites.

Centro Atlántico de Arte Moderno: the leading contemporary art museum in the Canary Islands, with an intense calendar of activities related to contemporary creation.

Theatres

Next to the city’s theaters

Teatro Pérez Galdós: the city’s most iconic theater and one of its emblematic monuments. The theater is the permanent headquarters of the Las Palmas Opera Festival.

Teatro Guiniguada: a beautiful space that belongs to the Canarian network of performing arts and primarily presents works by Canarian artists.

Teatro Cuyás: a top theater venue in the Canary Islands that presents the most renowned national and international works in every performing arts genre. It sits right across the street from Taoyo Suites.
