My family and I have stayed at the Estancia San Carlos on two separate occasions. We drive from Idaho to PV and are looking for a safe central location to park our vehicle. San Carlos fits the bill perfectly. This is definitely not the Ritz Carlton, but honestly who wants those old fuddy, duddies? I go to Mexico to be... more

We stayed at this hotel in August 2006, on the recommendation of the Rough Guide to Mexico. We were wary following the initial approach of the front-desk staff which was surly to say the least and they demanded payment in cash upfront. On the second day of our stay, there was very a problem with the power meaning very little... more

W e were travelling pot luck to Puerta Vallarta at the beginning of this year with a little dog. The mexicans are a fussy about dogs, to say the least and we were turned down at most upscale hotels. As we went into the Zona Romantica we chanced into this hotel which is not just superbly clean and friendly, they... more

This hotel was okay I have stayed in better for half the price . We found it very loud at night and the fumes from the buses and cars prevented us from having our windows open. We also found the rooms dark my being an artist made it difficult to paint. The location was central, close to all emenities. The... more

We too, were in a hotel recommended by an Insider site, it was a tragedy. There was an internet cafe nearby, the PV Cafe, and we looked up Trip Advisor. Not far from the supermarket, Rizzo's (?) we saw the San Carlos, and we had read the review by a couple from Canada. We moved from our hotel that afternoon,... more

I was staying at another hotel that reviewed well, but it was in fact not so good. So, went on the 'net, read a review on the San Carlos and checked in. Place is very clean, staff helpfull and they do your laundry !!!(cheap). Didn't realize that they are small apartments, we took a 2 bedroom, very spacious. We were... more

By accident I walked into the very clean lobby of this charming hotel. Located on Constitucion and Madero it is a 3 storey hotel with (about) 26 rooms. In fact they are mini-suites, that was the big surprise. With a large bedroom and a seperate living room / kitchen / dining area, and more or less fully equipped. Without question... more
