Hotel Frances

The location was amazing, couldn’t ask for a better place right in the center of the historic district! They have a terrace with a higher viewing area for gorgeous views of the cathedral and the Degollado theater, day or night! The hotel itself is beautiful with a very comfortable and inviting sitting area in the lobby! We had the standard quadruple room with a balcony and views to the government palace and the iconic Guadalajara sign. It was a dreamlike experience to see the balcony and hear the city sounds along with various musicians drift into the room. And the staff!.. They were very attentive, hospitable, and were there for you whenever you needed anything! Overall, amazing people and great hotel!

The location was great.. in the heart of the city. within walking distance of food and points of interest. The hotel was wonderful.. full of character, history and charm.. love the Juliet doors. The staff were very accommodating and were full of knowledge about the history of the building and info about the city.

I love this hotel! If you want to be right in the middle of the city this is an excellent choice! It is an older establishment (from 1610) so expect all the history and the quirks of an older establishment. The staff will treat you like family if you are here more than a 3 day stay.

The old world charm was outstanding. Staff was helpful and friendly both in the hotel and adjoining restaurant. Room was lovely.

Location is the best. I love old buildings with a history. This fit the bill perfectly, would and will stay here again.
