The Hotel smelled very clean. I had a nice view of the plaza and church near by. One has to walk 1 to 2 blocks from the hotel to get a cab or public trans. The staff was very efficient, quick check in and out. Overall very nice.

The hotel needs updating; some parts are lovely, others need revamping. Our room itself was lovely. On three sides of the hotel, the streets were under massive construction so it was very noisy and at times unsafe: open manholes nearby difficult to manuever around at times. That would have been helpful to know ahead of time. Housekeeping staff were lovely & helpful.

Beware - in the middle of construction zone
Nice historical hotel in the center of downtown. Getting there tired at night form the airport and trying to check in before grabbing a bite to eat was a total frustrating point. The area around the hotel has been closed off to traffic due to major renovations of the underground utilities, etc. that have been going on for over a year and look like they will take another year, this is Nov 2024. The room has nice firm beds. The noise from the construction is very audible from the jackhammers etc so definitely bring ear plugs. The front desk is not necessarily rude but a bit unmotivated. The parking staff is very nice, I tipped them 20 pesos per valet collection. The pool is not remarkable, not bad but not outstanding, has no jacuzzi.

The property listed a full size refrigerator and coffee maker in the room and there were none. When I asked about this they put a mini fridge in my room andnno coffee maker. No ice available. Staff weren't very responsive.

Black mold, stains, draw a finger through the dust
I am urging hotels.com to remove this property from their site. This "4-star hotel" was not acceptable at any star level or standard. The photos here are only a slice. Black mold throughout my room, dust in the room I could draw a line through with my finger. Stains on the chairs. Hair on the shower floor. Black mold on the bathmat. The HVAC unit in the room was falling from the ceiling and incredibly loud. When I went to seek another room, I was told it was the only one left in the hotel. The "airport shuttle" they promoted on their website doesn't exist. There were broken doors in the hallway and the elevator was in need of repair. Please, don't stay here.

Never again
Very old colonial hotel that smells terrible, probably due in large part to all the construction. Breakfast is a buffet and not included in room. The area around the hotel is fantastic for convenience (dining/shopping), but if I ever return to Veracruz, I would never stay here again. Bed is not comfortable, sheets not soft, but at least there was a working air conditioner in room. Service was very good as staff were helpful.

The location of this hotel is excellent. The hotel and rooms have ac. There is an attached parking garage. However, there are some definite issues with this hotel. First, we always ask at the desk the price compared to Orbitz. Most of the time Orbitz is better but it never hurts to ask. Because of this, after we book with Orbitz the hotel staff become dismissive bordering rude. We are given a room that is not as nice as indicated on the app. We have encountered rude staff on a previous stay at this hotel. We stay here because of the location to the main plaza. This time it was Cynthia at the counter who displayed such a dismissive attitude that she wouldn’t even look at me. The rooms are outdated and in desperate need of updating and deep cleaning. Too bad. This hotel could be really nice.
