Hotel Acapulco dengan Gim

The building has an intriguing shape and there are many pools. It’s also right in La Condesa Beach. Ideal location, you would think. BUT…. 1. After checking in, I found a very dirty washroom sink, and called down to report it. The woman who arrived waved her hand dismissively but I stood my ground and she cleaned it. Turns out the drain is clogged so even if the poor cleaner did her job the first time, the previous guest’s hair and muck would ring the sink unless you took special care. Annnd the sink was never fixed the whole time I was there. 2. At checkin I got a band slapped on my wrist and later realized every guest got one. It showed you belong on the property. Also they come in different colors: White means a basic stay; red means breakfast included and purple means all inclusive. So yea others will know what you’re paying for during your stay. 3. The beach is pretty good except it’s a pirate’s cove — meaning that because of the vagaries of Mexican law, though Hotsun has a great location and a piece of the beach for its guests, where you can generally sit free, the spots nearest the water belong to the government. So if you sit in the lounge chairs and under the tents nearest the waves, you have to pay different guys who keep changing the price every single day. If you land on a cruise ship from some far-flung country you may not be aware of this. Those guys, wearing uniforms of some sort, also sell drinks that are exorbitantly priced. Before you figure out they have nothing to do with Hotsun, you may be taken for a ride. I was. Also, every 1-2 mins of every day, vendors descend on the beach with all sorts of things for sale. In one day I was asked to buy grilled shrimp on a stick, coconut water with jelly, sun hats, fridge magnets, massages, boat rides, oysters, sun dresses, sunglasses, beach floats, tattoos, braids, sunscreen, sand boots and a serenade from a nice old man with a guitar. People have to make a living, yes, and the law makes Mexican beach space very democratic, but I wish the hotel, which took a $200 MXN returnable deposit to give me a towel to lie by the pool for the duration of my stay, had warned me about the Wild West nature of the beach where it is located, and pointed out which uniformed person belongs to the hotel and a head’s up so I could buy at my own risk. I said “No, gracias” maybe 90 times during that one week. 4. The noise, oh the noise. El ruido comes up to the hotel’s top floors and grabs you by the neck: Music, laughter, children squealing, etc. These are usually all marvelous aspects about living on planet earth, but when you can’t sleep because a group at the hotel is holding a party on the beach and the thump thump thump of reggaeton is blaring deep into the night and giving you a headache, the conclusion is the hotel is not prioritizing the comfort of the rest of its guests. If this is your jam, go for it. But for many it would be a frustrating experience all around.

I will start off with the positive and give 5* to the 3 waiters in the Bambuco Restaurant. David M who has always made my previous visits to Hotel Elcano Bambuco Restaurant a lovely experience in dining. David is a personable, pleasant young man and speaks excellent English. This visit in January I also had the pleasure of being served by Rigoberto who is pleasant and speaks English. And I can not forget to thank the pleasant Pablo at breakfast who always with a smile would bring over when ever he saw me two Concha (delicious sweet breads). Pablo also speaks English so he was the only one at Breakfast that knew what kind of bread rolls I wanted. I booked an all inclusive package with Sunwing Vacations to Hotel Elcano from January 11 to 18 and stayed in room 815. I am sure the Reservations Manager and Director of Hotel Elcano knows who I am and did not really care that they might lose me as a returning guest. One of the many reasons I returned to Hotel Elcano in the past is because I enjoyed having the choice of Buffet or Set Menu at Lunch and Dinner. I also enjoy their food, their wonderful presentation of their dishes and their excellent service by their waiters when I order from the set menu. This trip in January I was told by the Hotel Elcano Reservation Manager according to this years contract with Sunwing, Hotel Elcano has arranged for all meals to be buffet unless the hotel does not have many guests on specific days then it will be Set Menu. I told the Reservation Manager that my contract with Sunwing is still the same indicating lunch and dinner buffet or set menu. I even had a copy of my contract with me of what is included in my all inclusive package that I purchased through Sunwing. I was told by the Reservation Manager that it was Sunwing responsibility to inform their customers of the change and I would have to speak to Sunwing. So I made a complaint with Sunwing Representative onsite in Acapulco and I was told I have to speak with Guest Services Desk at the resort, since this is internal resort information that has to be managed with them. What a disappointment! This really ruined my enjoyment of my stay at Hotel Elcano. Hotel Elcano also changed their Dinner Hours which was only available from 7:00pm to 9:00pm. Sunwing website indicated the Dinner hours are from 16:30 to 22:00. The limited Dinner Hours set by Hotel Elcano for Sunwing guests became a big inconvenience for me. Because of the limited two hour time frame to have Dinner at the hotel denied me the opportunity to arrange other activities in the evening to enjoy in Acapulco. Whoever is familiar with Sunwing knows who is at fault and I know there were other complaints at other resorts in Acapulco with similar situations having problems getting what they paid for. I feel though that Hotel Elcano could of rectified the situation at the moment since this was my third visit to their hotel.

A very elegant place with beautiful views. The customer service us very great and helpful as well as caring. Would definitely recommend. They have a clean space and great pool for kids and older ages as well as a bar and food service by the pool.

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

We were traveling as an extended family and had the three-bedroom suite facing the bay. Very nice, very clean, absolutely no complaints. Each room had a balcony. We saw sea turtles swimming in the water by the rocks numerous times. The hotel staff is pleasant and helpful. We did not encounter any staff members who were not. Part of what made the visit so enjoyable is that the taxi drivers located outside the Fiesta Americana provide a great service. We booked a daylong tour with Jose Luciano Callejas Gonzalez. We paid less than then tour companies were charging, traveled in a spotlessly clean air conditioned Suburban, and got a personalized tour. Jose took us to numerous scenic outlooks, the Chapel of Peace (a must see), the Diego Rivera mural (another must see), the Mirador for lunch and to watch the cliff divers, the outdoor ampitheater, Los Flamingoes to see the view, and other stops. We really felt like we got a great overview of city. Jose's English is excellent and he's very knowledgeable. Look for the guy in the turquoise shirt, his service is exceptional! We also worked with several other drivers stationed at the hotel. Oscar Cervantes also has excellent English and outstanding service, as does Pedro. The pools at the hotel were very nice. One was closed for renovation while we were there (June 2023) but the others offered plenty of space. One nice surprise is that several floors offer washers and dryers free of charge. So great to be able to take home a suitcase of clean clothes! Our room had a small kitchen, stovetop only, no oven, plus microwave, dishwasher, and fridge. We made a run to the grocery store and were able to cook meals there some days. The hotel plays music throughout the evening and late into the night on the weekends. If you're sensitive to sounds, take ear plugs. The music didn't bother us but it might bother others. Fiesta Americana is in easy (and safe) walking distance to numerous restaurants. We particularly liked La Finca. I whole-heartedly recommend Fiesta Americana and its excellent staff and taxi drivers!

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.

All the family had a great experience. We would definetly come back again and highly recommend hotel for everyone.Hotel staff is extremely nice and welcoming and made our experience unforgettable. Everywhere we went since we arrived everyone was making us feel like at home and went extra mile to make our stay special. We particularly enjoyed dinner at Andiamo Restaurant. Food was beautiful , but Moises and Aide were exceptional in making our time with the family special.
