About this property

Welcome to Hotel Eloisa

Situated in Puerto Vallarta’s vibrant Zona Romántica district, Hotel Eloisa offers warm rooms, studios, and suites with some featuring kitchens. The hotel’s relaxed atmosphere is complemented by a rooftop pool and a restaurant that provides sea views, making it suitable for those seeking convenience near the beach and local attractions. The property operates a smoke-free policy and includes amenities such as free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and accessible features, though it does not provide breakfast, parking, airport shuttle, or pet accommodations.

The location is a key highlight, with guests just steps away from Los Muertos Beach and the lively Malecon promenade, which is lined with restaurants, bars, galleries, and shops. This cool area is noted for its hip bars and global dining options, as well as a striking pier on the beach. Nearby spots for exploration include Conchas Chinas Beach and numerous cultural and leisure activities, appealing to visitors who prefer to be immersed in the local scene.

Reviews indicate a mixed but generally positive experience. While some guests find the rooms basic and somewhat dated, others appreciate the cleanliness, quiet, and friendly hotel staff. Many highlight the excellent location as a major advantage, along with comfortable beds and well-functioning air conditioning. It is worth noting that some rooms may face inward to a courtyard rather than offering ocean views, which could influence guest preferences.

Checking in from 3:00 PM with checkout by noon, the hotel suits travelers prioritizing location and affordability over modern luxury. The on-site Cocktail Bar La Playa adds to the social atmosphere nearby. Overall, Hotel Eloisa is a practical option for visitors looking to explore Puerto Vallarta on foot and enjoy easy access to beaches, dining, and entertainment, with basic but adequate accommodations.

Great location that's walking distance to everything. Food, shopping, the boardwalk. Clean room with good use of space. Counters on the walls make it convenient to put your things.

The price for this location reflects the quality of room. Although the hotel is beautiful in a classic Mexican way, it out dated and run down. Simple room and clean enough. No window in our room except to the inner hallway, smelled good, AC and TV work. The location is beautiful next to the park and a block from the beach with so many wonderful restaurants around. Staff is very kind and helpful, beds are comfortable enough and clean. Just don’t expect a fancy room and see the value. Thank you I would stay again!

The hotel is good in many ways. Located in the Zona Romantica district, steps to the beach and to plenty of restaurants and bars, built in the traditional style of the region. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had a nice junior suite with mountain and partial ocean view. Be careful at booking, some rooms may have a view to the internal courtyard only, which may not be what you prefer. The kitchen in the suite comes with a large refrigerator but with basic equipment (compared to U.S. suite hotel kitchens). Not a problem at all for us due to all the food options literally at the door step. Internet worked well in the common areas, only partially in the room (we were informed about this ahead of our stay). There are two pools, a quite small one on the roof top and a slightly larger one on the ground/1st floor close to the lobby. They hand no beach/pool towels in this hotel. So you take them from the room or bring own beach towels. AC worked well, housekeeping was very good (and, what I appreciate, rather early in the day). We'll definitely return. Reason for not overall five stars is the shaky internet in the room which should not be rocket science anymore in 2025.

The rooms are very basic and dated and honestly disappointing when you check in but the rooms grow on you. They are regularly cleaned and well taken care off. The location is ideal. Steps away from the beach. We didn't need to use a bus or taxi for anything. Everything was walking distance. We had a beautiful view of the beach and the park which had Zumba classes every morning. Our room was on the second floor and hence not very quiet. I would recommend a higher floor and something away from street view. The bars in the next building can get very loud late night. No iron nor hairdryer in the room but you can ask for one at the front desk. We often did and returned it immediately The best highlight is the roof. We loved having breakfast there. Our little one loved swimming while we chatted. It's definitely bang for your buck. Would go back there (top floor)

My friend booked this place for a few nights as the hotel I booked was too noisy & had bad wifi so we both ended up with access to both hotels. I didn't sleep here however it was clean everywhere & the staff were very nice. His room was small but clean & comfortable. Resolved his issues with the original hotel booking as it was quiet & wifi was good so he could work in the mornings. Good value for the price. Has a nice rooftop sundeck & a small pool with decent view. Really close to the beach. Excellent location.
