We really enjoyed the traditional Mexican style of this hotel. The garden room was lovely with a terrace opening out to a beautiful green space. It felt very luxurious breakfast was included with our room. The plaza is right across the street. The town is very walkable. We would definitely come back.

Hidden Gem in Downtown Chapala

From Dahia, Erica the Assistant & Housekeeping, Vero to meeting GM Ivan, I love this place. Accommodations & amenities were well done! I enjoyed eating complimentary basic breakfast outdoors on the terrace garden patio & discovered the hidden Buddha set back in the garden. How beautiful and amazing!

The Area of the hotel is located right in the middle of the town. Very convenient to the restaurants and where the locals sell their trinkets, shoes, clothes and other items. The breakfast which was included was delicious and very nice area to sit and enjoy. The staff is very friendly and always someone there to assist you in any questions you may have. Really enjoyed our stay here in Chapala at Plaza Hotel. Gracias Sandra & Ernest Herrera

Everything was excellent except for the AC in the room. It wasn’t efficient for the size of the room and it didn’t stay cool especially at night.
