Hotels Near Parque Real Tabachines in Zapopan

I have stayed at this hotel several times for business travel. The rooms are nice and clean and the staff is friendly and helpful. I do have a few complaints though. Far too much room is taken up by the mini bar. Most of the refrigerator space, two full drawers, and a entire shelf are used by the mini bar. As a business travel, I never use any of the items and would much rather have the room to store my own items such as left overs. This is especially true with the refrigerator as there is barely room for me to put 4 bottles of water. (There is an oxxo and a 7-11 just a block away and I would much rather buy my water there as it is much cheaper.) On two of my trips there have been short power outages due to storms. (One night the power turned on and off almost a dozen times.) When the power goes out the room thermostat loses its memory and turns off the room fan. (Regardless of the temperature you set, if the fan is not on the room does not cool.) This led to the room getting very hot and me waking to turn the AC and Fan on again many times in the night. It would be great if they could change the bios settings on the thermostat so the fan defaults to On instead of off.

The Bellman was attentive and helpful. I use a wheelchair and he came down the steep front ramp and got me up into the attractive lobby! One gal at the Checkin Counter was busy eating! The other one became insistent she could not even take our names prior to their rigid 3 p.m. only time! It was 2:50 p.m.! I asked if our room was ready. She nodded. We waited at the empty restaurant. The Starbucks in the lobby was not open on time the next A.M. The Front Desk employee had no information and didn’t know who to ask! Our room was nice. Too bad the impressions made by the Front Desk were overriding!

I have stayed here for a week at a time about every 8 weeks since the hotel opened. It took a while to get running smoothly but now is an excellent hotel. Service is very high overall. Food is excellent and overall healthier than the surrounding hotels. Close alternatives for food at the office building next door or some smaller cafes in neighborhood behind the hotel. The suites are live and a great bathroom. These are the only rooms that have a bathtub. The corner rooms are a bit smaller and I prefer a regular room instead of the upgrade to a corner room. One complaint is the air conditioning units can be a little loud so best to run them constantly for background noise. Pool is a bit odd as it does not have many lounge chairs if you want to just lounge and lay out in sun. Exec lounge has great service now with bartender always interested in making unique drinks.

Fortunately, we only stayed for 2 nights. The first one, we had dinner at the hotel’s restaurant. I ordered a club sandwich (which was the priciest sandwich on the menu) and it came with like singles yellow cheese. If you’re going to use that, don’t charge like you’re using real cheese. The next morning, the service at breakfast was terrible. Also, the food took forever and it wasn’t tasty at all. The next day, when we arrived in the afternoon, the card keys weren’t working. I had to go to the lobby where there was a line because apparently everyone in the hotel was having the same problem. They fixed it and later, that same night, it stopped working again. The room was ok and the facilities were clean. So if you can avoid the food, the service and don’t mind a few trips to the lobby to get your card key fixed, this hotel might work for you.

Good location but warning: The tile floors are very slippery especially when they slip. The rest of me fell and was badly injured enough to ask for a walker for the rest of our stay. There were 3 mobility on our trip - there were people who were challenged and they all said the same, so be careful. They don't have towels. Pillows don't stay on pillows. AC/heating was very difficult to work. There was a room safe but no one could open to keep my passport. They also changed the door–after the night of the street and half of the group had to take the new key after the day trip. Buffet breakfast was not very good but I did it because it was included in the room rate. As I said, the location is good but I would not recommend this place.

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!

Travel in November 2019 in a family plan, rooms are spacious and clean, friendly staff but their only bad point is the location, the center area where you are located is nothing safe, It is about two squares from the catedral walking you get easily, but I recommend that if you go to the hotel walking during your stay, do it at good time, passing 9 pm is a lonely and unsafe place. The breakfast buffet is bad, it has no great variety of dishes, I think it can improve.

The room was good, just a little expensive, and the breakfast was average. Generally speaking, the cost performance is not very high. There are many hotels nearby for the same price but very convenient to eat

Hotel is in a prime location in the La Gourmeteria Center. Everything is within reach. High end, delicious, restaurants, bars, movie theatre. Super friendly staff. There's a donut shop right in front. Easy access to the main road or bus stop within a few blocks.
