Hotel Gran Via

“Great staff”

This rambling old pile was a fascinating place to stay, but what I take away from it is the extraordinary kindness and helpfulness of the staff. I needed to contact the (totally useless) U.S.Consulate in Mexico City. They not only placed the call for me, on their dime, they stayed on the line until… Mais

This rambling old pile was a fascinating place to stay, but what I take away from it is the extraordinary kindness and helpfulness of the staff. I needed to contact the (totally useless) U.S.Consulate in Mexico City. They not only placed the call for me, on their dime, they stayed on the line until they knew I'd gotten through to a member of our consular staff.

“For those travelers needing a place close to the ADO station,,,and more.”

I am in and out of Veracruz city half a dozen times a year or more, sometimes just to switch buses and other times to enjoy the nightlife and history. The zocalo is the place to be for music, dancing and nightlife but Hotel Gran Via is my go to place if I am just passing through town. Great rooms,… Mais

I am in and out of Veracruz city half a dozen times a year or more, sometimes just to switch buses and other times to enjoy the nightlife and history. The zocalo is the place to be for music, dancing and nightlife but Hotel Gran Via is my go to place if I am just passing through town. Great rooms, better than most on the zocalo, an OK restaurant, perfect location and the price is great. Flat screen TVs, ultra modern bathrooms, mini split AC and just perfect as far as I'm concerned. Less than 2 minutes walk to the bus station! I've been there solo a couple times and once with my wife and she gave it two thumbs up.

“Bom custo/benefício”

Para mim, um ponto positivo foi poder deixar as bicicletas para dentro do quarto em segurança. O control… Mais

Apesar de não ser um hotel luxuoso, o ambiente era agradável e limpo. Há estacionamento porém quando está com lotação máxima, seu carro pode correr risco de ficar estacionado em frente ao hotel. Para mim, um ponto positivo foi poder deixar as bicicletas para dentro do quarto em segurança. O controle do ar condicionado não fica no quarto, o que impede que você regule a temperatura a gosto. A Wi-Fi no quarto onde ficamos hospedados não funcionou bem. O café da manhã pode ser comprado de um pequeno restaurante que fica dentro do hotel mas funciona de maneira independente.

“Good but...”

The hotel is conveniently very close at a walking distance to the ADO bus station. There is a big supermarket very close (Aurrera). The rooms are clean and have a sufficient space for one or two guests. Hot water in the shower was available day and night. The TV was working with a number of Spanish… Mais

The hotel is conveniently very close at a walking distance to the ADO bus station. There is a big supermarket very close (Aurrera). The rooms are clean and have a sufficient space for one or two guests. Hot water in the shower was available day and night. The TV was working with a number of Spanish-speaking channels. I didn't notice any English speaking channels. No coffee maker. Thee was a small free water bottle. Wifi signal was strong in the lobby but non-existent in the room. When asked to change the room to one with wifi, my request was denied.
