Hotels near Temple of Light, Guadalajara

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!

I recently stayed at Dali plaza and had a mixed experience. I booked a room with a city view online, but upon arrival, I was given a room without the promised view. It was disappointing to not get what I expected, especially on the first night. Fortunately, the hotel corrected the issue for the second night, and I finally got the room with the city view I had booked. While I appreciate the resolution, it would have been better if I had received the correct room from the start.

Stayed here for one week in September 2020, in a Jacuzzi suite. We found the hotel to be a wonderful place to stay..... Location on a busy street was not a problem for noise. Short walk to Centro Historico, and a quick Uber to everywhere else we went. Room was large, clean and well appointed. Jacuzzi worked well. Cleaning staff were very nice. Due to COVID, the protocols were well explained and the hotel was efficient in handling people coming in and out. Front desk staff were friendly. The Bar/Restaurant was quiet, great service, food was not the greatest but it was not bad.... I give it a 6.5 to 7 All in all... highly recommend this hotel.... price is competitive with other places.

I stayed 4 nights at the Hotel ****** Plaza on my recent trip to Guadalajara. Every night there was an excess of noise through the walls from other rooms - loud TV's, people leaving their room doors open and talking loudly, kids running in the hallways. On the saturday night of my stay there is a club nearby the hotel and loud music was thumping all night until 4am. The excess noise aside and poor night sleeps I had every night, this is a decent hotel, well located in a central area of the city. The rooms are nicely appointed. The staff were of average friendliness, but did not appear to enjoy being of service to hotel guests. I will not stay here on my next trip to Guadalajara.

since the arrival you feel the kindness of the people who work there. Check-in/out was very fast, receptionists are very friendly and knowledgeable and willing to help. Rooms are very clean; you can leave all your personal belongings without being afraid of something me be missing or something. Breakfast is a buffet style, excellent food, a variety of food to select, natural juices are amazing. I truty recommends this hotel, is closed to the convention center, which is a big plus. Looking forward to send people and next time I go back to Guadalajara to stay there again.

Five-star hotel that doesn't live up to its name. Curtain Labron. Shower head is broken. Stayed three nights and didn't fix it. I don't know if it was repaired or not. The room service came back at 6pm and didn't do it yet. The rock style is quite fresh, and there is a live concert in the evening. The breakfast is too bad, don't come to the Chinese stomach!

Hotel is pretty new so it’s still kept up quite nicely. However I found the staff here at both the front desk and the restaurant exceptional. We stayed here on two different occasions and they were both good. Rooms have the proper windows to quiet the noise outside. Also the hotel has a shuttle to the airport BUT NOT FROM THE AIRPORT so keep this in mind. Uber is not allowed at the airport so you will need to take a taxi by pre-paying inside the airport near the rental car area. If you’re in need of staying near the airport, this is the best choice by far. Breakfast is usually included and pretty good too, not that continental crap. Enjoy! 😀

The hotel is good and very new. The service is also quite serious, changing the sheets every day, eating outside is quite convenient, just across the road. Breakfast is average, but it is also possible. I will stay at this hotel in the future.
