We stayed here because we got a great deal and I knew this was a great location. The rooms were nice and staff was great but I overlooked the fact that they had not only no tv so I could keep up with the market but no phone in the room. I am sorry but I even have to work... more

Ok, I have a confession to make. My SO and I became the picky type of traveler I usually detest. We had booked a room with a balcony and partial ocean view, but once we saw the rooftop views, we decided to upgrade to one of the spacious, oceanfront rooms. (This after messing up our first room - oops.) But... more

A perfect small hotel, very quiet, very clean. Very nice clean rooms,not too fancy, but very nice. We were surprised by how great the restraurant was. We went to a number of places on the main avenue, but this is a gem! And I dont think a lot of people know about this restraurant, since it's in the quiet beach... more

We just returned from a 5 night stay. We had a great experience. The rooms were bright and clean. The locations was perfect. It was a bit noisy at night but we were on vacation with no responsibilities. The staff was friendly and helpful. Our morning breakfasts on the beach were tasty and fresh. The views were amazing from our... more

Just returned yesterday from 8 glorious days in Quintana Roo, 4 of them at the Alhambra. My husband and I loved this place and found it to be fabulous in every way with the minor exception of a hard mattress on the bed that bothered my husbands' back ( he has some minor issues with it) but not mine. Other... more

This review is late as we actually stayed at Hotel Alhambra in November 2007. This was our first trip to Playa del Carmen and we wanted some place in town. Hotel Alhambra was perfect for our needs. It's charm quotient is high! It is located barely a block off of 5th avenue and is on the beach. This is not... more

I love the style of this hotel, and a beach front room with balcony is definitely worth it, however if you are sensitive to noise, you may be kept up all night by the loud dance clubs along the beach. I used to live in Playa, back in the quiet, quaint, dirt road days, so the noise is hard to... more

We were in Playa for our beach wedding, and booked 6 rooms, including the Ocean Front room for ourselves. We chose the Alhambra for it's proximity to the beach and "main drag", and also due to the fact it was situated at the quieter end of Playa. We were not disappointed. The rooms were clean and light and airy. The... more

The staff at Alhambra was extremely helpful and responsive. Any e-mail I sent to the hotel was immediately returned. They arranged for transportation to meet us at the airport. Our room was spotless and had a nice balcony view of the beach. There is a nice roof-top solarium that is perfect when you want to get away from the crowds... more

Just returned from our second stay at the Alhambra. It was as wonderful as last year, if not better. The service is excellent. The rooms are immaculate. The food is well prepared and clean. There is a sort of camaraderie among the hotel visitors, many of whom have been vacationing at the Alhambra for years. Very cool! I was so... more
