Best Hotels near ACUARIO, Guadalajara

Good value for money

This pretentious hotel is all show, no go. Only in an alternate reality can this be a 4-star hotel! Yes, the facade is impressive, and the lobby with the working elevator are nice. But once you get to your double room, you realize it's a dark, and musty, cave-like space with no fresh air because the only window faces an inner courtyard that is covered. There is mold on the stucco ceiling (see the dark spots in the attached photo, sorry for the resolution). The bathroom is so cramped you cannot use the toilet with the way the garbage bin was placed by the careless cleaning staff (see attached photos). Speaking of the cleaning staff, I found a long, dark hair on the bed sheets (photo attached), definitely the wrong length and color to be mine. The worst issue I encountered beside the fact I felt like I was suffocating from the lack of fresh air, was that the shower wouldn't drain properly, and you'd end up standing in filthy water. There was very little toilet paper provided (less than half roll) and by the time I was out, it was too late and inconvenient to go down at reception and ask for more. While I was there, there were hardly any other guests in the hotel, so it was relatively quiet, but every small noise is amplified by the architectural design of having an inner courtyard covered (in Morocco, the same architecture has the inner courtyard uncovered, so the air and noise are not trapped). You could also hear the church bells, and traffic noises. The A/C works, but it's limited by central WiFi controls, and I froze during the January night I was there, with no blanket other than a polyesther bed spread. After only one night, I couldn't wait to get out of there! There is a central hostel that literally offers better amenities than this so-called 4-stars hotel (you can look for my reviews to find out which one). The best thing this hotel offers is luggage storage: it's safe, and they give you a ticket, so it's more secure. The staff was nice enough, especially Gloria at the reception desk, who is kind and helpful. IMPORTANT NOTE: The rating of this hotel here is skewed by the numerous 5-star reviews for the famous Cathedral ”Santiago de Compostela” in Spain, placed in the WRONG listing!

It is a small hotel because it has not many rooms but the rooms are spacious. The staff is very friendly and willing to help. Beautiful common spaces. Very close to the largest tourist areas. You can walk to four or five points of interest. A square you can take the turbus. Or a calandry to travel the city. We don't use the hotel cafeteria but we saw people breakfast and rich oil. Not very good points: the water pressure could be better on the bathroom. The Internet is not very good even though there are several networks. But well, as we walked all day out of the truth did not need.

Facilities: Very good, the environment is very good, like it!

Travel in November 2019 in a family plan, rooms are spacious and clean, friendly staff but their only bad point is the location, the center area where you are located is nothing safe, It is about two squares from the catedral walking you get easily, but I recommend that if you go to the hotel walking during your stay, do it at good time, passing 9 pm is a lonely and unsafe place. The breakfast buffet is bad, it has no great variety of dishes, I think it can improve.

Siempre llegamos a este hotel y no habíamos tenido ningún problema. Sus instalaciones están muy bien y en las habitaciones muy limpias... El sábado 11 de Marzo de 2023 nos instalamos en el hotel, nos enviaron al 3er piso (primera vez, que conocíamos esa parte del hotel) salimos con unos amigos, regresamos a la 1am y el estacionamiento estaba lleno; nos quedamos en triple fila... Al subir a la habitación, nos llegó el olor a cigarro y música con alto volumen!!! Eran los de la habitación de a lado y así estuvieron hasta las 5am, tomando, fumando y cantando sin que nadie les dijera nada; yo marqué muchas veces a recepción y nunca contestaron...
