“pretty basic”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 January 2012

Must admit I was surprised to see it advertising as a spa as it came across as a very basic 2 star hotel to me. Air con didn't work and had problems with the loo flush. Had light evening meal in the restaurant which was passable but otherwise didn't eat there. Staff are helpful. Can't get overly enthusiastic about the place, but don't think there are many other options in the area.

“it's ok as a one or two-star hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2011

it's an acceptable and affordable choice if you do not want to stay in Tuxtla Gutiérrez, but do not expect a high-quality hotel, in spite of its looks. It is two-star at most....
The gardens and atmosphere are beautiful; the restaurant and staff are not professional, though.

“Lovely hotel, but avoid the restaurant at all costs.”

La Ceiba is situated around beautiful lush tropical gardens, neatly tended. There is a sparkling swimming pool with tables & chairs and sun-loungers around it. Reception and housekeeping staff were quite friendly & helpful. Our room was spacious and clean, and the bathroom was clean with adequate hot water. The first night there, we ate at the restaurant - we ordered the pollo chiapanesco, and the bistek de res mexicana. These dishes were served without any of the usual accompaniments - salsas, tortillas, etc - just plonked on the table with nothing else but a neanderthal grunt.. When travelling, we generally order different dishes and sample eash other's meal,so both can benefit from the different flavours. When we ate the chicken, we found that although it was cooked, it was cold inside, indicating that it had been cooked, then put aside for an unknown amount of time, then partially and inadequately reheated prior to serving. As a result next morning we both had food poisoning. Be careful too when ordering drinks at the restaurant - the waiters make up the price as they go, putting a few extra pesos onto the price for some pocket money for themselves - they don't supply a written cuenta for drinks. These also come without the customary accompaniments, like limes, peanuts etc. There are plenty of other good restaurants within 5 minutes' walk from the hotel - but check first - some of them seem to close surprisingly early.

“OK hotel close to Sumidero Canyon”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Chiapa de Corzo is a charming small town and La Ceiba is 100 m from the main square in a quiet residential district.. The hotel has a pleasant garden and a small pool. The staff are friendly and helpful and there is free wi-fi in the lobby. On site restaurant – arrived too late for dinner, but breakfast was good. We stayed in the main block where the rooms are adequate, but a bit dated and in need of a bit of TLC, but clean with good (and hot) water supply. Mosquito screens and aircon provided. The rooms in the block at the rear look a little more modern.
Very convenient for the landing stage for boats up the Sumidero Canyon

“Excellent quality/price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2011

We found the hotel by chance, although choice is quite limited in Chiapa de Corzo. This is an excellent choice if your visiting the canyon and the city (walking distance to the embarcadero). The staff was very nice and accomodating.
