A long weekend spent in Monterrey was augmented and facilitated by the helpful staff. Nice price. Excellent facilities and clean quiet room. Hotel restaurant was wonderful. Perfect location for Macro Plaza and other sites.

Stayed there a couple of times and couldn't get any deluxe rooms with running hot water or heating/cooling. Had to sleep with the window open. Water took over 15 minutes before the hot water started flowing and the tub drained poorly. Receptionist kept saying all the rooms are booked and I can't switch to another room. Or that they will...

I recently had a chance to revisit the Gran Ancira. I had stayed there multiple times a few years ago (back in 1999-2003). The hotel was a wonderful place to stay back then, and it hasn't changed much since. The rooms are comfortable, although I would recommend springing the little extra cost for the executive floor (5th floor). The rooms... More

The hotel is really beautiful and the hotel restaurant serves great food. Bedroom was good (not as good as the hotel but good). It's 20 minutes away from the airport. Service is very good. Monterrey is a very dangerous place so I never left the hotel to walk around.

Good location in the center of the city, and pretty nice inside, particularly for the age- I had heard that it was old and tired, but I thought the rooms were actually nice- and a welcome change from the standard chains. The lobby is very cool with a classy, historic feel. Service was excellent all around. I had both lunch... More

I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights. It is centrally located to the shops and museums and many restaurants. I wonder for hours all around the area and it was busy and safe. Hotel staff is absolutely great, restaurant and bar are excellent. Hotel had all the comforts in the room, high speed internet is free. You really cannot... More

We stayed 3 nights at the hotel and had a great time. The renovations were done nicely and the hotel had good up-keep. The staff was very friends and the breakfast buffet was worth it! This hotel is located in a great central location in walking distance to a shopping area, a beautiful catedral and museums. Also I know many... More

It is a very old building, rooms are also old and carpets seem a bit suspect. Service is mediocre at least. The restaurant is the only good thing particularly on sundays when they display a big brunch. I used to love the sunday brunch until i had a kid and realize they don't have diaper changing station anywhere...they don't have... More
