What reviewers say

Visitors frequently praise the hotel's excellent location and the exceptionally friendly and attentive service from staff members like Mariana and Ángel. However, some guests note that the historic building shows signs of wear and tear, with issues like a non-functioning elevator, inadequate lighting in bathrooms, and a general feeling of neglect, though others found the dated features to be expected for a historic property.

About this place Hotel Francés

Hotel Francés is a mainstream hotel in Guadalajara's historic centre, on Calle Maestranza a block from Plaza de Armas and the cathedral. It occupies an old colonial building with a covered central courtyard and is often described as the city's oldest hotel. It is listed here as gay-friendly, not as an LGBTQ+ hotel. The draw is location and period character: the Teatro Degollado and the main pedestrian streets are a few minutes away. Rooms are older in style and street noise can carry at night, so ask for an interior room if you sleep lightly. The gay bars around Avenida Chapultepec and the centro are a short taxi ride.

I was at an event today, on the terrace, it was a delight, being in the cool breeze, with a refreshing drink and a wonderful view of the city.

We went on an end-of-year trip with secondary school students and their families. Its location was perfect because everything was within easy reach. It was safe and comfortable. Although in the end we realized that they have ghostly apparitions. Nothing serious, just curious.
