I booked my trip to Puerto Vallarta and the Tropicana hotel as a last minute special 4 days before departure and got an amazing deal. Keeping that in mind I wasnt expecting much in the way of accomodation and I was proven right! The hotel is older and basic which is fine but the room assigned to me was an... more

The timing of my visit must have been perfect. Just after the spring break crowd but just before the Mexican nationals visited before Easter. Nothing extravagant about the room (448) but it was perfectly clean, extremely quiet, and the hotel seemed almost empty which may account for the $70/night rate. On the edge of the zona romantica which attracts the... more

You can't beat the location of this hotel in old town PV. It is about as far south as you can get before going up the hill towards the highway. It is in a somewhat quieter part of town (because it is up the hill from most of the restaurants and downtown attractions, but it is easily within walking distance... more

We only stayed one night, but it was a good time. The service was amazing as they basically waited on you hand & foot. The bartender was fun and gave us some good deals that we were able to enjoy right in the pool. The rooms were nice, a bit old style but were comfortable and served the purpose. The... more

We booked the Tropicana online over Christmas. Price was $140 per night for a room in the new wing without an ocean view. When we arrived we were given a room in the old wing with an ocean view. We were not sure if this was an upgrade as the room was worn. Nothing too bad but some people would... more

We just finished our second stay at the Tropicana - if your hotel room is just a place to stay for the night and you don't need a roomful of amenities, their Standard room cannot be beat. I booked our trip on a Monday for a stay that started the following Thursday - so very short notice. We had a... more

We stayed one night at the Tropicana, but would go back in a heartbeat. Yes, the bed was hard. That seems to be endemic to Mexico. But that was more than made up for by the friendly staff, the view out to the ocean from our room, and the location in the center of the old section of PV. more

We checked in on a Sunday afternoon and we weren't to happy with the 2 full beds when we had requested a king. Monday morning went to the management and she had a room that had "just opened up". Very Nice room #222 over looking the pool and on out to the beach. King with a bonus full bed also.... more

Great value. Clean hotel located directly on the beach. Easy to get around the area, can walk to the Malecon. Lots of good restaurants close by. Pool was fabulous - we opted to hang out there rather than the beach - too much competition for the beach chairs. The housekeeper was meticulous about our room - we tipped her $2... more
