Guadalajara hotels near Biblioteca Iberoamericana Octavio Paz

Pros: breakfast was good, dinner was excellent, beautiful pool

Cons: Lots of noise from the lobby lounge - atrium style hotels are always noisy and this was no exception. We had to ask several times to have our room cleaned - they seemed to forget us each day.

Pros: The location, the fancy rooms, the tidiness, the pool!

Pros: Everything!! This is a beautifully appointed historic hotel within walking distance of everything historic Guadalajara has to offer. It is a wonderful place. Highly recommend.

Cons: Everything was wonderful!

Pros: The staff, the4 hotel itself and the location was fantastic.

Pros: Lovely historical property just a short distance from all of the main sights at the centre of Guadalajara. Our room on the first floor had a tall ceiling and a small balcony, which was very pleasant. The inner courtyards are beautiful. All personnel were very friendly and eager to please.

Cons: Although our outward facing room was very nice, a room facing inward would be quite dark. The front of the hotel faces a normal dynamic downtown street, but behind it are some low-end cantina and nightclub type establishments.

Pros: Location and ambiance

Pros: Staff Feel of Historic Mexico Stained and beveled glass transoms Arches Piano player Flan Location

Cons: Room got a rating of 8 as the air conditioning did not work either night in room 306. Room 305 the air conditioning worked Friday but not Saturday. The fan brought to my room shut off after an hour, had to be restarted. The beds & pillows are 3 out of

Pros: Nice old colonial building that has been well maintained. Room was really clean and service was good.

Cons: My only compaint is that my room didn't have any windows which wasn't that big of a deal since I was only there to sleep.

Pros: Location

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Location nice building nice people.

Cons: After one day room was not clean properly.

Pros: Great location and walking distance from many of the historical sights. Lots to eat and see.

Cons: Room lock didn’t work, TV remote stopped working, the lighting in the room was very poor. As a young woman liking to place some make-up on, I could not see my face well enough. There is a small wall mounted mirror in the bathroom but sadly it’s positioned where it’s of no use to me. Another note... when heading to the airport a cab driver was summoned by the hotel personnel as my brother that lives there could not fit all of us with suitcases. The staff asked if my brother can follow the cab driver to the airport as he was taking some of us. I looked back and he proceeds to lean over and tell my brother that he is going to tip him! I didn’t find this out until later after I had paid for the cab ride plus a very good tip. I was not happy at all and would have refused this driver had I known. All in all this was the only bad thing that happened.

Pros: Everything! Location, staff, historical beauty and charm - has it all! Everything is within walking distance Staff was beyond helpful. Can never thank enough in helping me plan vacation since last October. Genuinely exceptional Staff!!

Cons: Understandably so their plumbing may need some updating. I saw how the water would stand in shower after just a few minutes. Also, would explain sewage smell coming from bathroom. But is grand old hotel.

Pros: Location, comfortable room, Ralph at the FrontDesk and the housekeeping team was so attentive.

Cons: Breakfast food choices.

Pros: Staff extra nice, helped me with all questions I had during my stay. Would definitely come back to hotel.

Cons: Restaurant in hotel did not have enough personal to attend to guests in taking their orders.

Pros: Staff is very professional and helpful.

Pros: Location

Cons: Our room had a sewer smell

Pros: It was pretty clean and a good value. Nice tv. Great location.

Cons: Was given a room that smelled recently smoked in. Lady at the front desk was extremely rude and annoyed that I requested a different room. No remote for a/c to change temperature. The safe was locked so unable to use and wasn’t about to ask the rude lady to have it opened.

Pros: Great view! :)

Pros: About 5 min away walking distance from the cathedral, plaza de armas, and many more tourist attractions. Just great in general! Will definitely book with them again!

Pros: close to downtown price

Cons: construction in lobby windows leaking bathroom smell

Pros: Location

Cons: My bathroom was dorty and without clean towels

Pros: Rooms but shower very slow and had to wait 20 min for hot water.

Cons: The Restaurant was a terrible experience. Always had to wait for someone to take an order and then the food would come out 30 min later even if restaurant was empty, staff not professional at all. I am not sure I will stay there again.

Pros: Great location.... Walk 1 1/2 short blocks and your at the beginning of the tourist walking street attractions. Abouts 7 blocks in a row with Plazas, Churches, Fountains, Museums, Restaurants, Sculptures and Government Buildings with murals not to be missed. Rooms away from elevators are quiet, ask for 5th floor or higher, really any view is fantastic but the preferred Church steeple view rooms are hard if not impossible to get. I arrived to the hotel at 10am and had to wait until half past 11 to get a room away from the loud elevator. No View of Church Spires but got room 706 and saw another church a few blocks away and some impressive mountain views.

Cons: Slipped a little on wet bathroom floor, grabbed for towel rack and the bar came off in my hand. Someone else had done the same slipping motion, pulled the towel rack off the wall and the Hotel Staff never fixed the towel rack, Housekeeping just keeps putting clean towels on the loose bar and its an accident waiting to happen, Could you imagine dropping that bar on your foot... Three out of four light bulbs in the room were burnt out, woman at front desk with long curly hair is not trying in any way to earn any customer service points. The rest of the Hotel Staff was excellent. Really slept well regardless of the pillows from hell. Oh and the towels are old and worn. And my sheets were torn and it looked like someone steam ironed a candy wrapper to fix the hole.

Pros: The star was very friendly

Cons: The room did not have heat. It was cold

Pros: The location is excellent. The room is large

Cons: The pool is freezing cold. It should be on the roof of the hotel to enjoy with the sun. Behind the beds needs to be cleaned. Also it would be nice to have a couple of English speaking channels on T.V.

Pros: Excellent & safe location, everything within walking distance. Easy to get back to. Very nice hotel. Staff were helpful and nice. Pool was pretty. Spacious room.

Cons: Beds weren’t too comfy. But I slept like a rock.

Pros: Everything else was greatò

Cons: The food could be better.

Pros: The staff is really kind, breakfast was good.

Cons: The bathroom of the room that I was in was tiny and could definitely use some renovations. Mold in the shower was something that would prevent me from returning here.

Cons: I will recommend this hotel to friends and family.

Pros: The people working in the reseption was just fantastic. Nice

Cons: nothing

Pros: Great location, clean, big room and staff was nice.

Cons: Internet was bad.

Pros: Very charming hotel, with a great breakfast and perfect location !

Pros: Great location

Cons: The bed was very hard and there were two steps into the bathroom. I fell in the middle of the night going to the toilet

Cons: I would have liked access to a simple breakfast - e.g. coffee and toast - on site. The large buffet was much more than I want/need in the morning.

Pros: I liked the ambience of the place - a restored colonial hotel with a lovely pool on the roof

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The staff was helpful and friendly. Great location.

Cons: It didn’t have good entertainment during the evening, the rooftop pool close early, drinks didn’t taste good. Also, the product that they use to clean smells very strong.

Pros: Central to the main plazas and sights to visit including’Juan de Dios’ market. Clean, spacious and bedroom and bathroom facilities were very good.

Cons: As soon as we arrived and on one other occasion a staff member tried to sell us watches!

Pros: Location was ok and accessible, thought not for walking at night since is a very solitary area being in the old town of Guadalajara

Cons: I arrived near midnight and the staff at that hour was unfriendly and unhelpful. The guy even started ranting against booking reservations and how they complicated everything. Morning staff was a little more helpful and even gave me free breakfast for my whole stay after I complained on the treatment upon my arrival. Rooms were ok. I was travelling for business so I didnt need to spend too much time in the hotel. When I was leaving early in the morning (2am) the same unfriendly staff was at the desk, and he didnt even offered to help me get a cab at that hour, and didnt gave my invoice for the stay. He said day time staff will send it. Breakfast was lacking in variety too. I was for a whole week and after the third day I opted to go to a starbucks instead.

Cons: Swimming pool is dirty no way to swim.

Pros: Large clean rooms

Cons: Located on the main square and could get very noisy especially if there’s a fiesta

Pros: The central location was great. It is near popular restaurants. The view of the cathedral from my room was beautiful.

Cons: The hotel didn't have water due to maintenance. It lasted many hours and I had to ask for a refund. I transferred to another hotel that was a few blocks away.

Pros: Location, value. Star Bucks in the building. Close to La Chata,our favorite breakfast place.

Cons: The hotel room cards were forever going bad. That was a real annoyance.

Pros: The hotel is perfectly located within the downtown historic area and the staff were very nice. They were willing to meet an exceed all our requests.

Cons: Room features were dated. There was an iron; however, no ironing board. There was a blow dryer; however, it did not function. Lastly, the running water we used for showering IS NOT potable, or usable, for brushing your teeth. I made the mistake of brushing my teeth with that water. The taste is worse than hose water. Even after attempting to run the water and let the pipes clear of any possible sediment, the taste was absolutely horrendous.

Pros: Lction

Cons: It took an hour for a towel to come to the room.
