Posada del Cortes

Very comfortable room. Nice quiet location. Walking distance to the many good restaurants in Loreto and the boardwalk along the shore. The included continental breakfast was substantial ( for us) - yogurt, toast, coffee with cream, granola, fruit cup. Soap & shower products provided along with a blow dryer. Very nice staff who arranged a taxi pick up for us the next day to get us to the airport. This is a small, boutique hotel with 7 rooms. Our Spanish is sketchy at best and it was great that their English skills were much better. We would definitely stay here again if we are in Loreto.

We stayed at Posada del Cortes for a couple of days both before and after a multi-day sea kayaking trip from Loreto, and were very happy with our stay. The hotel is in a great location for walking to the Malecón and also to the pedestrian street that goes in front of the Misión which has lots of great restaurants. The staff and management are friendly, helpful, and very accommodating. The hotel is clean and charming, with multiple outdoor patios including a lovely rooftop patio which is especially delightful for drinking your morning coffee and watching the sunrise, or taking up a glass of wine and watching the sunset. The hotel has secure parking, and also stored our bags for us while we were on our kayaking trip. Do bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper, as the Misión enthusiastically chimes beginning early in the morning, and there is some late night music from local establishments. We highly recommend Posada del Cortes and would definitely stay here the next time we travel to Loreto.

We stayed here on 2 separate nights as part of tour of Baja organized by Pacificcatalyst on their boat MV Westward. The first night we were in room 7 upstairs and then went west to see Grey whales at Magdalena Bay and after a night there, we returned to Loreto and were in room 3. In room 3, the plug didn't fit the sink, so hard to shave. Warm water took about 7 minutes of running shower before it became remotely warm. It was surrounded by palm trees, had a lovely courtyard for groups to meet in and was quite quiet and only a short walk to sea front. They also stored safely our kit that we needed to leave behind when moving to a small room at Magdalena Bay and it was safe.

We spent 9 nights at Posada del Cortes in January 2024 and could not have been happier. The room was spacious - we were in a 2nd floor suite. Our room had a small but serviceable balcony where we had breakfast. The breakfast is delivered to your room - let them know the day before what time you will want breakfast. Breakfast is toast, fruit, yogurt and coffee. Nothing special, but a nice way to start the day. We skipped a couple times and when to Pan Que Pan for breakfast which is a 5 minute walk. Highly recommended. The beds were comfy. Josefa and Ussiel were wonderful hosts and were always very helpful. Their english was pretty good and communication was not difficult. There is maid service daily - we asked not to have the linens and towels washed in order to save on water and that was not a problem. Be aware that the Loreto Mission is not too far away, so church bells will wake you at 6am daily. Unfortunately, I believe that is inescapable at any hotel near the center of town. Consider it part of the charm! There are 2 lovely rooftop decks and a beautiful ground level courtyard. The location is perfect - a 1 minute walk to the city main square. We highly recommend Posada del Cortes!
