    missing transportation

    Great city views, clean large lobby, efficient door staff

    The water pressure in the shower barely suffices for a proper wash!!! Also, it's baffling that a hotel of this size doesn't offer airport transportation!!! These issues could easily be fixed and would make a huge difference!!!

    My family had a great time here! The breakfast buffet was outstanding with a huge selection, and I loved the relaxing pool area which was perfect for our kids. Though the gym was a bit small, we managed to enjoy it during our stay.

    comfortable bed
    great water pressure

    The Deluxe King Room was really spacious with a beautiful view of the arches. The bed was super comfy, and the pillows were just right. Water pressure in the big washroom was great too! There was a mini fridge and complimentary snacks, which was a nice touch. Overall, a good room!

    great service
    24-hour room service

    This hotel was just a great fit for a short layover in Guadalajara with real value for money. The 24-hour room service was a lifesaver when we arrived late and needed snacks. Make sure to double-check pool service hours before ordering drinks late in the day.

    fantastic breakfast
    stunning views
    unhelpful staff
    extra charges

    Although the hotel offered stunning views and had a fantastic breakfast buffet, the customer service fell short, with some staff unhelpful during check-in and extra charges for parking. Rooms were spacious and clean, but amenities like coffee supplies weren't refreshed daily, which could be improved.

    exceptional staff
    delightful variety
    slow service
    tricky access
    limited options

    Exceptional staff provided outstanding service, bringing chocolates and ensuring I felt at home during my stay. The breakfast buffet featured a delightful variety, including grilled vegetables, and was a highlight of the mornings. However, the pool service was disappointingly slow, with long wait times for drinks. Additionally, access to the hotel was tricky given its location, and the limited dining options could be improved for a better guest experience.

    clean rooms
    great breakfast
    local tours
    lacking pool service
    inconvenient billing

    I enjoyed staying in a hotel with clean rooms and great breakfast options. The location was quiet, perfect for relaxing. I appreciated the easy access to attractions nearby. The staff helped me with suggestions for local tours, which added value to my experience. It reminded me of the vibrant stays I had in Italy, seeking out local culture.

    The pool service was lacking. I had to wait too long for drinks. It was inconvenient not being able to charge drinks to my room.

    stunning views
    comfortable bed
    delicious options
    slow service
    outdated tv

    The location of Riu Plaza is fantastic, right in the heart of Guadalajara. I loved the stunning views from my Deluxe King Room. The bed was very comfortable, and the room was well-kept. Breakfast was a highlight for me, with a broad selection of delicious options, including mouthwatering chilaquiles. However, the service at the pool could use major improvement. I waited too long for drinks, which made for a frustrating experience. Also, the TV system felt outdated. It would be great to have Smart TVs so I could stream my favorite shows. Overall, the staff were friendly and seemed eager to help, but some areas need better attention to detail.

    Fantastic Stay with Amazing Views

    We had a wonderful experience during our stay, with breathtaking views from our room on the 28th floor. The breakfast buffet was a highlight, featuring a great variety of delicious options. The staff were attentive and made our stay feel special, although the pool service could be faster. I highly recommend enjoying a drink at the rooftop bar—it was the perfect way to unwind!

    stunning city views
    friendly staff
    outdated tv system
    slow pool service

    The breakfast buffet was a feast that had me dreaming of chilaquiles and pozole! Our Deluxe King Room had stunning city views that made my mornings brighter. Plus, the staff was super friendly, making our stay feel like home.

    On the flip side, the TV system could use an upgrade to Smart TVs for streaming joy. And getting drinks by the pool felt like a scavenger hunt for service—please, just call if you don't know how to make that craft cocktail!
