The hotel charged twice for DEPOSIT - When I booked on November 9,2022 and When I checked in on Feb.27,2023. They denied it and no checking for the record of November 2022 money transaction??? I had to check with my bank about the transaction when I got back and YES, the hotel charged twice of deposit . My bank will cancel a transaction of Feb.27.2023. I asked to refund if I stay 2 nights instead of 9 nights and the hotel refused so I had to stay 9 nights, no choice!! It was very unpleasant experience !!! It was not worth for 1,000 peso ( over 70 CAD )/night. I blame myself that I made a mistake to choose Hotel Las Salinas. Expedia tried to resolve my issues but it was out of their hands.

Hello good morning you were never charged 2 times it's a lie One was a retention and the other the charge You got the wrong hotel book a cheap hotel and want service from a 5-star hotel As you told us that you always go in 5-star hotels in Ixtapa it's better to go there you're only going to spend a little ..... more money Greetings

Very quiet and peaceful. Far enough off the main roads and away from the noise of the bars. The owner was very attentive and quick to react to any situation. A minor glitch in our air conditioning and he had it fixed immediately. The chain broke on the handle of the toilet, inside the tank. He had it fixed immediately. Would go back anytime.

Hotel Las Salinas offers great value for the money. It is a family run hotel and Christian and his son Jose go the extra mile to make sure the guests are well taken care of. The free cold purified water is really great. I was surprised that the hotel also carries the NFL Network so I was able to watch the playoff games. Overall this is the best value in a hotel I’ve experienced in my life.

Hotel Las Salinas is a great place to stay if you're traveling on a budget or if you want to get away from big chain hotels. As someone who has stayed in all inclusive hotels, I like Hotel Las Salinas because it's a place that feels like home. Another way to put it is "cozy". It's a very clean, the staff is very friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is not too far away from the central market, maybe a 7 min. walk. If you go just around the corner form the hotel you will find an amazing taco joint that is only open at night. If you are adventurous as I am, Hotel Las Salinas allows oneself to emerge in the culture. You get to experience Zihuatanejo on a whole other level.

Near lots of good restaurants.. Very helpful staff. Traffic is a bit noisy as are the barking dogs. It gets pretty quiet at night. We appreciated the included drinking water. AC works very well. Tiny room, but it was all we needed.

The hotel has friendly staff and is close to the city center and beautiful beaches. The room I stayed in is comfortable and quiet. However it would be even better if a light breakfast is provided to the guests and the shower room has a small bottle of shampoo. But overall I had a great time.

Unless you can sleep in a dog pound avoir this place. Also you need to be comfortable on coil springs because this is your cheap mattress. This place is overrated and way too expensive for what they offer . Worst Expedia looking in years !!! It should be off the list!

Perfect place for us.
The family that owns/runs the hotel are wonderful, super helpful. The room was clean and the staff changed the sheets every couple of days. There was an OXXO nearby for early morning coffee. The walk to the Marina was only about 10 minutes and mostly shaded. Cheap street food breakfast right around the corner. The price was perfect. We were on the 3rd floor and the internet worked fantastic, we were able to stream movies on Netflix simultaneously. We would definitely stay here again.

like a hostel, loud, far from the beach.
We stayed only 1 night. Stray dogs barking constantly kept us up all night. A metal work shop is loud & smelly in the a.m. Very small room with nowhere to put our things. They have internet. A/C was loud & controlled only by plugging in & unplugging. No available outlets. Dark room with small window. Located in city centre far from beach. Family running it seemed nice. Would never stay there again! We wanted out of there so fast we forgot to take photos.

Friendly Welcome and Nice Stay!! Overall Great!!
We chose a standard room and this was fine for our needs which were a comfortable place to sleep and rest. Housekeeping did a great job making sure the room was clean each day and the bed made. Toiletries could be better as we were only given 2 very small bars of soap on the first day, but none where left in the room after. Shampoo and conditioner would be a nice addition. The pool though small was clean and a nice cool dipping spot to refresh and relax after the beach. Location is quiet and sleep was easy. Comfortable bed and air conditioning. Easy access to the center on foot or you can easily catch a taxi or local bus/ van I would stay here again and recommend to anyone who wants a clean simple place to relax and sleep after a long day out and about.

Nice hotel centrally located
First time to Ixtapa-Zih.......so had to choose accomodations ahead of time with Expedia. Wanted something close in for convenience and more grass roots rather than extravagant American, have that all time at home!! Once through customs at airport, which was a breeze, ever any questions, just ask even Mexican officials as they are friendly and helpful. The taxis outside is best to get verbal price up front, have your address where you are going handy and shop a bit?? we did and saved quite a bit, dont be shy. greeted at hotel by a Frenchman! Christian is owner with his wife and kids. He speaks 4 languages and his older 2 sons are bilingual as well as polite. they help their dad run the business and someday hope to continue with his aspirations. we were late one day but he told us no problem that they were waiting for us, and they were. nice, quiet and clean with a small pool to refresh yourself at while chatting with other visitors, staff, or family. they make you feel apart of something greater than yourself without imposing anything. close to shopping and food all walking distance or go on tour with bus or taxi. really enjoyed our stay

Amazing Hotel and Staff
Only positive things to say about our stay at Hotel Las Salinas. We stayed in the Family Suite and the entire suite was comfortable and clean. The hotel is very close to many restaurants, stores, and the beach. We also really liked the small pool in the hotel lobby. Couldn't believe we got such a great hotel for such an affordable price. The manager and the rest of the staff were amazing. The manager helped us get in contact with our airlines (because we spoke very little spanish), hailed cabs for us so that we wouldn't get overcharged, recommended good restaurants, and was available at all times whenever we had a request. Overall, this hotel was awesome, and we recommend it very highly!!! We had a great time in Zihuatanejo.

Good economy hotel
This hotel is about 15 minutes walk from the beach and various artisan outlets. We stayed 10 days. Owner was very helpful (replaced a thinner mattress the first day) and gave good advice on getting to various places. The hotel has basic rooms but they are clean, quiet and functional (my wife and I spent most of our time out exploring). Ours had a fridge and stove that allowed us to cook some of our own food. The pool is really too small (and more or less in the lobby) to really enjoy. We strongly recommend it for those on a limited budget. Enjoy the 24 km long Cyclopista (awesome bike path through forest) in nearby Ixtapa; snorkelling at Las Gatas, and more distant Isla Ixtapa (40 minutes on local bus); morning kayaking at nearby Barra de Potosi (lots of birds/ fish).
