Most of my travelling plans include having to spend a night in Caracas in orther to be able to get an early flight abroad. In the past I tried the Eurobuilding close to the airport and had a terrible experience. So, last time I decided to try Marriott Playa Grande. Just want travellers to have in mind that the hotel...

Pros: Close to airport and free shuttle which is nice because downtown Caracas can be 2 hours away with traffic. Hotel was very modern and clean. Flat screen TVs and lots of English TV channels. Desent pool overlooking the beach. Good wheelchair accessible room and property was wheelchair accessible. Staff was nice but not overly friendly. Cons: Area is very... More

My family and I spent a weekend at this hotel which is about 15 mins from the airport. It is very close to the beach (about 5 mins driving) and has all the amenities required for a short stay as activities are limited but that's only because its Venezuela (not so safe to go out). The on site restaurant had... More

I had to stay over in Caracas one night to connect from a cruise ship to a flight. I was warned about Caracas and therefore only visited the city by taxi and stayed in Playa Grande near the Port and Airport. I expected a Hotel with a good size pool and a sundeck with comfortable deck chairs. The room was... More

When I stayed here there was 1 ice machine serving 7 floors. More importantly was that upon returning home I realized they charged me twice for my stay. I have tried for over 4 months now to get the charges credited. Every time I email the location and the corporate customer service person, I get a response within minutes that... More

This is a hotel located at Catia La Mar, around 15 minutes to the airport, it has nice and new facilities, but seems to me that it should have more, just one poor service Restaurant with a look at the pool and a Lobby Bar. Still the rates are very good for a "5 star" hotel and is one of... More

This is a new hotel that opened in recent years so most of the complex is fresh. They have a pick up service at the airport which is included in the room price. The lobby is nice but not luxurious, it has a rather relaxed atmosphere. Nice and kind staff. Rooms are big and clean, the furniture is new. No... More

I live in Venezuela and unfortunately room options close to the Simon Bolivar International Airport in Maiquetia (Caracas) are few. This hotel is one of the newer options and my experience was wonderful. It seemed a little strange at first reaching the hotel, because it is enclaved in a residential area, and it stands out from its surroundings. All details... More

When you are aware that you are in Venezuela, then this Marriott is a very nice place where to stay, but you always expect something more from a Marriott hotel. Rooms are ok, clean and spacious, pool and exercise room are very good as well. Some issues that are not Marriott standard: since I paid in internet I had no... More

I chose this hotel to pass the night due to my early flight next day. The shuttle that transports you to the hotel looks like a piece of junk. The hotel reception is flawless and free wi-fi. The pool area has ocean view... just spectacular. In the corridors there are concentrated high humidity due to air conditioning and proximity to... More
