There's more more comfort and better service to be found in a room at the YMCA!
This hotel's walls and doors are paper thin, and even without children continuously running up and down the halls and slamming doors, the place was noisy. Hotel guests can hear zumba class music and free weights dropped onto the floor in the gym below from early in the morning until late in the evening. The desk staff holds guests' drivers licenses as security for the TV remote control. There are no rooms on the ground floor... but no elevator or bellman. The view from our room's terraza was a solid concrete wall in desperate need of patching and painting. The double room had towels for only one guest. The dining room seats around 75 persons, but there is no breakfast buffet and staff was not even remotely able to keep up with orders, which arrived late and cold for more guests than not.
Great location, amenities, wonderful staff
I came to the Guadalara area for a medical procedure. The hospital is located in Zapopan, which is a separate city, however they run together. I chose this hotel for several reasons. It is a two story building. It has a small number of rooms (maybe 30). It has a HUGE gym. It has a cooked to order (small selection) breakfast. The best part, is that during breakfast and dinner, they have a gentleman playing a grand piano!! The food is fairly good. In addition, the staff is just great. My thanks to Arturo for assisting me with a transportation issue I experienced. Another good thing...no gringos! I have been here 9 days and in all my wanderings, haven't seen one gringo. The hotel is across the street from the Basilica. The neighborhood is very safe. I have seen no fedarales, which speaks volumes. The police ride around on bikes. I have thoroughly walked the neighborhood, have found good little restaurants on and near the Plaza area in front of the basilica. Weekends find a very festive atmosphere in this central Plaza, including live municipal band. I have been using Uber to go back and forth to the medical center/hospital. The gym is large, used by the local public. It has all kinds of equipment, etc. If you want to look at the REAL Mexico, without being accosted by hawkers selling their wares, I would highly recommend a stay at the Real Zapopan!!! The rooms are clean, not cluttered, roomy. Nothing fancy, but very comfortable. I could. Not have made a better choice for my recouperation!, Bed is comfortable.
Small hotel with superb service!
I visited Hotel Real Zapopan for three days on a family emergency trip and it delivered. The hotel is not fancy, but has everything we needed, ample parking, great breakfast included (a gentleman plays the piano while you eat in the morning) There is a big gym in the building that you can use as a guest. Good value for your money. Arturo the hotel manager was awesome, he was always friendly and ready to help. They don't have elevators, but the guard/bell boy carries the luggage to your room. The rooms are roomy and clean. The location is excellent, you can walk to the local restaurants, the plaza and church. They have a small beauty parlor (this made my wife happy.)
Good hotel, good location and good price
The room was very good and clean, TV and toiletries. The hotel is cheap and the location is good since it is very near to the Basilica de Zapopan. And I liked the fact that it has a gym in the same building, very near to many shops and restaurants.
Great Price & Decent Stay
We stayed at this hotel for 5 days, while visiting and helping our Son and Daughter-in-law, move back to USA. The location was good for our trip since it was just down the street from where they lived, it was also convenient to the major access roads. There are lots of little eateries close by and a OXXO(am/pm type) market right next store. (Haridas is a little restaurant-internet cafe type with great food on same street and House of Chon is a few blocks away with great traditional mexican breakfast food). The hotel restaurant has great options, not necessarily traditional mexican food, but a nice variety. It is true, there is no hair dryer or iron, which we kind of missed, but then got over it. We found the staff to be friendly and helpful. They google mapped our trip to the pyramids, let us have a late check-out and sought us out to let us know we left our car lights on. The hotel is clean, modern style and offers free internet. While not the the same luxury level as the Fiesta Americana Hotel where we stayed last time, it was certainly a great value at about 1/4 of the price.
