My husband and I just returned from a week at the Elcano. The resort was very nice and the service was excellent. Check in and check out were very quick and efficient. Although they advertise a la carte restaurant there is not one available. The buffet restaurant was fine. Breakfast was good with a omlette bar where they would cook... more

We have just returned from a week at the Elcano which we thoroughly enjoyed. While it's true that there was a slight smell of sewage in our room on occasion, the same smell exists on the street - this is a 3rd world country after all!! We didn't find the hotel noisy at all. It is not close to bars... more

We are a young American couple, living in Mexico, who decided to spend a quick weekend in Acapulco. I had always wanted to try this hotel, and it turns out it was a great choice for this trip. The hotel is right on the beach. We had a standard suite, and payed $1200 pesos / night by booking directly with... more

Stayed at this hotel April 17-21, 2008. Nice hotel, dated but kept very clean. Staff was very good and accommodating. This hotel is 2-3stars depending on what you are accustomed to (based on 5 stars). Pool was clean, attached restaurant fairly expensive $10 for a Club Sandwich with fries), short walk to the beach, with a roped off area with... more
