My partner and I recently stayed 4 nights there in May and although the staff was nice the rooms were as dated and dingy as they come. We booked it after reading the reviews as we usually stay at another hotel in PV but thought we would try this one. We prepaid or we would have left on the first... more

Recently spent 7 days at Mercurio and was very pleased. The staff was great, the atmosphere great and homey. Small but nice pool with bar. It's an easy walk to the gay beach, many resturants, the gay bars and the malecon. more

I'm very glad I decided on PV as a destination for the week of my birthday and totally glad I chose this place to stay. I usually don't require the amenities and aesthetics of a 4 star hotel, but Mercurio has 4 star service. My room was average at best but it was everything I needed and then some. It... more

This is the 4th year in a row that my partner and I have stayed at this hotel. On the three previous visits we had not heard of or seen it. The staff remembers us each year and greets us by name when we arrive. Hotel Mercurio was formerly a family hotel, so the owner and staff have continued to... more

This hotel has a great staff, and is centrally located in the gay area of PV. Everything gay is only a short walk from Mecurio, including the gay beach. While the rooms are nothing to write home about, they are functional and clean. The decor is a little dated, but the value can't be beat. The staff was always friendly... more

The beds are ultra comfortable and for anyone who has stayed at various hotels in Vallarta will know this is NOT the case at many... more

The Hotel El Mercurio is a gay hotel in the old town section of PV. I paid US$110/night for 3 nights then got a 10% discount for paying cash on check out. Overall US$94/night. I was a solo traveler and was given a queen size bed in a relatively small room. The dimensions of the room were approx. 11' x... more

The people at Hotel Mercurio are friendly and polite and are especially helpful to those who do not know the language. They are very knowledgeable about the local businesses (restaurants, clubs, etc.) that can enhance a vacation experience. They serve an excellent breakfast every morning, provide free internet access for their guests, and they even allow some international phone calls.... more

What a great hotel! The rooms are funky but very clean and functional. Avoid a room facing the street because the bars across the street are really loud until really late. Free internet and VOIP were a pleasure. And free breakfast every morning around the pool was a great place to meet other hotel guests. I booked online at the... more
