Average Hotel, but great location

Room was clean but worn. Okay for overnight stay which is what I utilized it for. The lobby was clean, but the carpets in the room floors should be replaced and were not vacuumed. Outside bar was good. I would stay there again because I liked the location in the heart of the city; will look for other accommodations also.

I’ve lived and stayed at this hotel since 1979. It is sad to see how run down the place is. It needs attention. However, the staff is amazing, it is clean and safe.

Hotel was excellent and rooms were extremely clean and comfortable. Beds were very clean and comfortable. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Room was cleaned daily. Restaurant at hotel is buffet style however there’s a chef to make you special meals if you require one. Free parking underneath the hotel cars are safe. There are restaurants right in front of hotel with live free music family atmosphere restaurants and people with families outside dancing and eating. There is a park across the hotel and they have different activities nightly. We stayed July 20 - 26 . We felt safe and had no problems. Taxi fare is around 120 pesos around 6 us dollars. There are banks to the right of the bank, one block down. I used my us bank debit card at bank and got pesos. Cheaper than going to an exchange place. Use atm instead at banks. Again I used my us debit card to retrieve pesos cheaper then using exchange places. Very amazing place and family atmosphere. Loved it well return to see more of Vera Cruz. Must visit Orizaba it a distance away take taxi and you have to buy tolls there’s about six total that’s about 280 pesos each plus taxi fare. Orizaba is known for the cleanliness city in Vera Cruz. Take the high ride up the mountain. Beautiful scenery and views. Lots of beautiful things to do there. It is also very family Atmosphere it’s an all day. Take your water bottle. People are very friendly and respectful.

Pros: Clean, with nice old-style furniture in good condition. Excellent location if you are okay with not staying near the beach. Tons of restaurants (check reviews before going), live music, handicraft stores, the famous Güero Güera ice cream shops, La Parroquia restaurants, local shoe stores, and more. Gentle and helpful staff, although some do not speak English. Close to the Malecón, tourist two-story open bus rides, the Marines Museum, and many historical buildings. Cons: Outdoor live music can be annoying late at night. If you need a safe, make sure you request a room with a working one, and double-check that it is securely attached to the wall when you arrive. Far from the nicest beaches.

Good hotel. GREAT Location except for the music out front. But it didnt bother me much. Room had a lot of space. But, if you have respiratory issues shud reconsider. Our room had mold. But as experiences go. I was comfortable. Thanks Gran hotel Diligencias:)

The staff was friendly and helpful, especially at the end of our 3-night stay by arranging our early morning taxi to the airport. The room was clean and large with a table and two chairs, and a king-sized bed. The hotel is right on the main square (el zocalo) so we could go out and hear live music and see dances. Unfortunately, as with many old buildings, there was an awful smell of the sewer emanating from the bathroom. It seemed to be strongest in the morning. But, short of knocking the beautiful hotel down and rebuilding, there is probably very little that be done to improve the smell.

The hotel is outdated especially the restroom, the tub is peeling and has mold stains. It was kind of dangerous for my 75 year old mom, very hard to get in and out of the bathtub. We did love the location and the staff was very friendly!
