What a wonderful addition to the Guadalajara area. I was greeted right away as my Taxi pulled up to the front. The hotel is located right next to a beautiful bridge, that is culturally pleasing to the eye. Anyway, the lobby is very impressive. The hotel is new, and it still retains that "new hotel" experience. Every staff member I... More

If you get the opportunity to go to Guadalajara do not think twice and book this hotel, the staff is very friendly, check in was a breeze, and the experience is fantastic. I arrived on a Wednesday night, and they had live music at the bar. Super easy to find from the Airport after I picked my rental vehicle, pretty... More

The hotel just opened last year, so it's quite new. Everything is clean, modern and updated. I purchased the room upgrade option so my room was on the top floor (36th). It had floor to ceiling windows and the view was simply stunning. I left the drapes open and saw the moon at night and the sun come up in... More

I spent two nights at the Riu Plaza, Guadalajara, Mexico and found the hotel to be a top line property. The hotel is only 6 months old and is in excellent shape. The rooms are outfitted in a contemporary style with bold colors. The bath is outstanding with a large walk-in shower and a double sink vanity. Broadband service is... More

I was in Guadalajara on extended stays during 2011. I've stayed at many hotels in GDL. Overall, the Riu ranks as was one of the best. My first stay at the Riu was in late October. I was with a large group of coworkers and clients. The first experience wasn't the best. Several of us experienced service issues that seemed... More
