Top Principal Hotel Reviews

Vaway Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Good and friendly"

Mansión Alcázar Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"El staff fue súper amable. La habitación muy limpia. Desayuno buffet muy variado. Excelente todo. Volveré definitivamente."

Santa Lucia House - Forum

8/10 Good

"I stayed 10 days and i enjoyed my stay. The location is perfect for walking to nearby things to see. The breakfast was made to order. The staff was very friendly and helpful and always available."

Hotel Boutique Santa Lucia

8/10 Good

"Our experience was very good. However, the only issue we encountered was the strong kerosene smell on the third floor. The heating lamps located in the interior patio-which at night also operates as a restaurant, where the food is excellent, by the way- emit a very intense kerosene or gasoline odor, and because the patio has a covered roof, the smell ends up accumulating on the third floor."

Hotel Boutique Los Balcones

10/10 Excellent

"A very cute, clean and comfortable hotel only three blocks from the city center. The staff were exceptionally kind, friendly, and accommodating. The beds were comfortable, and the food at the on-site restaurant was delicious."
