“A comfortable, cosy and character-filled stay.”
Location was great, but the real stand out were the staff. From the moment we pulled in, security greeted us warmly, and it continued into check in. Everyone was extremely nice and helpful. Hotel was charming, historical, and very clean. The room was bigger than expected, and we also had a terrace. We loved our stay!

“The Go-To place to stay while in Ensenada.”
I stay here when I occasionally want a mini vacation. I love the pool area with the bar right there. The people who work here are always friendly, and the food is always good.

“Great except for the mattresses”
The hot tubs were clean, nice and hot and uncrowded. We did a polar plunge in the pool, but we weren't expecting a swim in January! The construction of the hotel meant the rooms were nice and quiet. The bathroom was nice and modern. The hotel staff was very helpful. Loved having a balcony. We didn't stay long enough to enjoy the games area or restaurant. Parking was safe and included

“Suprisingly luxurious accomodation booked on short notice.”
I was a little worried about the casino but the hotel is well separated and there is no problem at all with noise or anything else having to do with the casino. The location was great and it was an easy walk to the waterfront as well as all the restaurantes on 1st in centro.
