Hotels Near Los Castillo in Acapulco

My friends and I stayed at Calinda for a week in March for Spring Break. After reading some of the reviews, we were expecting a really horrible hotel. However, we were quite pleasantly surprised by the quality of the hotel. Here's a summary: *this is definitely not a luxury hotel... many of the people who stayed there seemed more like local Mexican families than tourists travelling from abroad, so it was more of a ”locals” kind of hotel. * Nevertheless, hotel lobby was large, open-air setting, and there was a live band playing a few nights out of the week while we were there. Hotel is very clean, we would always see people cleaning and mopping the floors at all times of the day. *ROOM: very spacious, clean, separate sink and shower area. Every room has a balcony, and we had a lovely view of the ocean and beach. Beds weren't super comfy.. but was decent. Sheets were clean (thank God!) *House-cleaning was very good... we had a really nice lady clean our room every day. We left her a $2USD tip every day... and our room was always cleaned very well. *Hotel pool was pretty nice... not HUGE, but a good size. Go at the end of the day, the pool is really nice and warm. Nice way to end the day. *Plenty of beach chairs everywhere. Hotel is right on the beach which is quite convenient. Hotel provides beach umbrellas and chairs... but they can run out in the afternoon. Overall we were quite pleased with the hotel. In terms of location, Calinda is in the middle of a lot... but not quite next anything. Most of the places you want to go to (bars, restaurants, Super Gigante) are within a 15 min walk. Good choice for those travelling on a budget... or for spring breakers who want to enjoy themselves, but don't want to be living in the craziness/noisiness of spring break. Again, not a super fancy, luxury hotel... but its clean, good sized, and never had any problems with hotel mgmt.

The room they gave us was on a floor that was undergoing maintenance, they made noise from repairs early and it was very annoying. The view that we had was towards some tennis courts and a rather neglected apartment building, which does not belong to the hotel, which greatly detracted from our experience. The furniture in the room in general is old, before there were utensils in the small kitchen, now there is nothing, they even removed the refrigerator, they only left the microwave. The wifi was too slow, they did not load social networks, the cleaning was regular since they did not sweep the room, they only limited themselves to making the bed. The service in the pools is sooooo slow, they have few waiters despite it being high season, and the sheets that cover the pool beds are worn and old. The pool towel service gives you one per day per person, and you cannot ask to have it changed for a dry one, you will have to keep the same one until the next day. The positive was the proximity and excellent location right in the center of the bay of Acapulco, opposite there is a shopping center with restaurants and shops. A few steps away a souvenir and handicraft market. And if you want to order food or any service through apps, it arrives at the hotel entrance in minutes. The pools are fine, although they could improve their cleanliness, since the water looks quite cloudy, especially in the adult pool, which is a great advantage if you are not traveling with children and want to relax.

This hotel exceeded expectations and was a pleasant experience overall. Large rooms with ocean views, very clean environment, delicious food and friendly staff. A special shout out to Victor at the bar and Reyna the tortilla chef, such a pleasure to deal with! Catering to a mostly national clientele, it was even more fun to enjoy a vacation like the locals.

EXCELENTE SERVICIO DEL PERDONAL Y TODO MUY LIMPIO . Las habitaciones muy amplias la vista al mar hermosa . La comida muy rica y mucha variedad, el bar todo muy bien en el mar excelente servicio de meseros muy atentos

Excellent place and service, everyone is very friendly and helpful, the facilities are beautiful

The rooms were good but bathtubs and showers show signs of being old. Parking your car cost 70 pesos per night. We only had room service on some snacks and the chips were stale. Has a very small beach area that is clean and enjoyable. The pools are very nice. No wash cloths, so if from the U.S. make sure you bring something to wash yourself, something other than your hand. The refrigerator in the room is locked so I don't really understand how you are to use it, but they come daily and unlock it and count everything to see if you are eating or drinking from it. Weird! Nice but out of the way and don't know if I will return to Acapulco. I think Cancun is better.

Solides Hotel, gute Lage, sauber.

AZUL restaurant! A lovely Mexican cuisine experience in beautiful Acapulco in Iconic Princess Mundo Imperial, I have tried some few dishes of them (Pescadillas, Mole, torta de coco) and almost all of them taste delicious! They have various Mexican food in menu and their bar of alcoholic and non alcohol drink is pretty much complete for different tastes. I appreciate help of Jorge Jimenez In Azul restaurant, he was helping me carefully with my food choice and he recommended me a very tasty drink (mixed of orange and pineapple), which I ordered 2 more! All other staff are pretty professional and kind and it’s easy to understand that you won’t leave the restaurant unhappy. Thank you very much!

Two things, amazing chef at Carnivore. Also the other was amazing service by Leticia Esteban. Thank you coming back tomorrow. Thank you for also making everything so festive and organized it makes me feel very welcomed. I will be bringing business this weekend here.
