Historical hotel

I have stayed at this hotel countless times. It’s minutes to the center of the historic plaza on foot. Definitely in the heart of the city. It’s urban and surrounded by great cheap restaurants and shopping. If you’re looking for culture and hustle bustle this historical hotel is awesome. You’ll enjoy the architectural archway, the antique art. The rooms are not fancy, but they’re really fun.

HOTEL RUINED MY VISIT TO GUADALAJARA. THE RESTAURANT IS CLOSED. Nothing available within the property for guests. A reviewer on google noted "BED BUGS", and a week later, I've got bites to prove something was biting me all over my legs. Also various insects including lots of gross drain flies. A trashy disco across the plaza blaring music way past midnight. A staff completely oblivious to guest comfort in general not limited to tons of laundry bags staged all over the hotel. If my room wasn't one of the worst in the hotel, that place is a real dump. Stayed here 20 years ago and it was adorable, this is a shame. Ruined my visit to GDL. I wish I took one look at my room and checked out. Try The Casino Plaza Hotel instead.

Loved this place and I'll be looking forward to staying again in the future. My room was wonderful: Spacious, clean, well-appointed. The staff was gracious and helpful. I especially enjoyed the parakeets caged in the common area: Waking to them chirping was like being in the country, instead of the center of one of the largest cities in Mexico.
