Hotel Morales, in a word, Charming!
The Hotel Morales, in a word, Charming! From start to finish our experience was wonderful. The entire staff went above and beyond to assure our stay was first class. Airport pick up/drop off, front desk, maintenance, housekeeping, and security were amazing. We stayed for 6 nights and were treated like family. Thank you Hotel Morales for a memorable visit to Guadalajara! Sincerely, Patrick & Socorro M.

Great Historic Hotel in Center of GDL
Hotel Morales is centrally located in downtown GDL. The hotel is a historic building near the city center. You can easily walk to allot of attractions downdown and also walk to the nearby metro station (3 blocks away). This makes it super easy to get around and see the sights or jump on the metro and head over to Zapopan for a day of sightseeing and shopping. The neighborhood can be rough at night, but I usually use uber to get around and isn't an issue. There is also a famous mexican restaurant called "La Chata" about 2 blocks away. If you want some authentic mexican food I recommend stopping by this place.

We’ll definitely be back!
We loved the property. It was in pristine condition. The service was incredible. We required transportation to Tequila and staff found us the best deal. I wish our stay was longer than one night to take advantage of the spa and pool. We’ll definitely be back!

Great location for Historic city center
Short one night stay. If you want to experience historic city center than this is an excellent choice. Nice rooftop views. Lovely building with lots of history and friendly staff. Walking distance to most sites. Queen bed was too small- that was my only complaint. I would come here again.

This hotel was in a very convenient area of el Centro. Restaurant, shopping and churches surround this hotel. The hotel is very clean and everyone was super nice. Salma and Daniel both from the restaurant were both wonderful! They gave us great recommendations on places to visit. Would highly recommend this hotel!
