Location, Location, Location!
It once was elegant but now need to upgrade! Friendly staff. Excellent location, in front of the Cacólos, where there are several restaurants and a historic or Church. Must eat at Gran Café Portals! The make in is a short walking distance. (The location is what makes it worth the money) Parking located across the street, safe and secure. Gym small, no a/c, most of what little equipment they had was broken. No service at poolside.
Historical Church in the square.
Excellent restaurant at local Prices!!

May be long time ago was very elegant, actually the entrance/lobby it’s very nice. But the rest of the hotel looks very old and deteriorated. Very sad to see how can they let go something so nice and elegant into something so ugly.

La estancia fue maravillosa, las habitaciones, las amenidades y el personal es para destacarse, se nota que si es un hotel antiguo y tiene sus detallitos pero nada que afecte la comodidad del hotel, eso sí, aunque en general toda la habitación estaba limpia, la rejilla del aire acondicionado estaba sucia, ese punto al parecer olvidan limpiarlo, por lo mismo no lo usamos pero no nos hizo falta porque el clima estaba agradable

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.
