I loved staying at this hotel! The location was amazing, just below the Pipila monument and the funicular station, offering spectacular views. The rooms were cozy and had a unique connection to a souvenir alley and museum. The service was excellent, with friendly and helpful staff. The dining experience before 9pm was delightful, offering a variety of delicious dishes. The facilities were well-kept. The only downside was the limited dinner options.

Staying at this hotel was truly a delight. The staff was very helpful and even provided an all-you-can-ride Funicular pass, allowing us to skip the line. The service was incredibly friendly and went out of their way to ensure our comfort, but it would have been even better with more attentive housekeeping. The location is simply amazing, just below the Pipila monument, offering a breathtaking view of the city. The dining experience, although not perfect, was still enjoyable with a variety of delicious options. The facilities were well-maintained, providing everything we needed during our stay.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The service was top-notch, with the staff being incredibly helpful and kind. The location up on the hill provided a unique and wonderful experience, away from the loud city center but just a short ride away. The dining experience, though not perfect, offered delicious options. Overall, a great value for the money with only a few minor drawbacks.
