Hotel Veracruz Centro Histórico

Location location location the food in the restaurant was awesome

Great location and staff really helpful. Pool area is really good and restaurant is ok. Good prices for the rooms.

Great location near the Zocolo. Excellent food in the restaurant, had breakfast twice and lunch once. Friendly, helpful, bilingual staff.

I had such a great stay here. My room was large, clean, and comfortable, and it looked out over the lively zócalo (main square) toward the Gulf. (There were political rallies, Christmas celebrations, and other events going on while I was there, but the happy noise had all stopped by 10:00 or 11:00 p.m. I never had trouble sleeping.) The wifi worked great. Staff were uniformly friendly and helpful. There is a Sanborn's on the ground floor and a hotel restaurant on the second floor -- which is also where the delightful pool area is to be found. (I had it to myself for the most part.) The hotel, again, is right on the zócalo and close to all of the sights, including the malecón (waterfront esplanade). Many of my favorite places to hang out are steps away, e.g., the Gran Café del Portal and the Cervecería Heroica en Los Portales. Taxis are easy to get to the airport, bus station, and San Juan de Ulúa Fort. City tours leave a couple of blocks away at the start of the malecón. Veracruz is truly an underrated destination, in my opinion. It has a very tropical/Caribbean vibe and so many of the things that tourists look for. At the same time, it is a working port and center of naval operations. I loved the mix and cannot wait to go back.

The restaurant is excellent, as well as the staff
