Great place to stay

It is a great hotel, family and pet friendly, the rooms are beautiful and very comfy. Also the food is well served. The only thing I expected was a climatized pool, because that’s what they told us when we called, it wasn’t cold though. Great experience.

What a wonderful place!

Reviewed By Claudia J

My in-law family, husband and I stayed over at Casa Francisco during the 2021 Christmas holidays. This hotel has two sections, the old and the new. We stayed in the new section, floor 2, which was slightly more expensive. The entire building combines colonial vibes and modern comfort. Our room faced the pool, but I could not hear the noise from the people swimming and hanging around that area. Every single surface was very clean, and the ambiance invited relaxation. The hotel is located at walking distance from the Sanborns, a large store that includes a pharmacy, a small bookshop, a nice restaurant, electronics store and some other merch. It is also one block away from an important street. However, you will not hear any noise from the street. We received incredible attention from all staff members including everyone at buffet, the quesadilla chef lady, cleaning, reception and door keeping staff. The hotel offered a wide choice of freshly made dishes of high quality. Even my mother in-law, who is an excellent cook, enjoyed all the meals. Lastly, and most importantly, the most impressive aspect of my stay at Casa Francisco was that the staff seem very pleased to work there. It seems the management is doing a great job to keep them busy but happy. Thanks, Casa Francisco, for the wonderful Christmas experience!

Good Enough for a Business Trip

Reviewed By Angel H

We choose this hotel, since we had to work in the WTC of Cuernavaca, which is located like 15 minutes from it. Check in was easy and fast. Service very good. Water was cut in the whole hotel from 11pm to 5am due to maintenance, but they offered 1.5L bottled water for free. Rooms are not so big, but they are enough. Sleep quality is very good. Beds are very comfortable and the 3rd floor was so quiet all night. Meals and service in the restaurant were great. It is a buffet which is 280 MXP per person.

Capital O Vf Hotel

Hotel VF Cuernavaca is located in the north of the city, just 3 minutes from the Cuernavaca - Mexico Highway for the departures to the Paloma de la Paz and Tepoztlán Libre. Only 5 minutes walk from the Commercial Plaza Portal D10, which has cinema Cinépolis, Starbucks, Smart Fit, and many other options to make you feel at home. In recent years, the growth of the City of Cuernavaca and its vehicular traffic has surpassed road infrastructure in many areas. The north of the city, due to its easy access to wide avenues and expressways such as the motorway, has preserved the tranquility that is directly associated with our city. In the area, we have access to all banks, major shopping plazas, restaurants and bars in less than 10 minutes. The historic center of the city is only 20 minutes away. In addition, because of our proximity to the highway, we have quick access to the gardens hosting social events such as weddings and graduations in Jiutepec, the industrial zone CIVAC, etc.

Couldn't ask for more for the $$ paid.

A cute clean hotel. Small. AC was old and was not working properly but it cooled at night thankfully. Clean, spacious. The restaurant had great food. Pool was dirty but I'm sure it was due to the rains the night before we got there. I'd stay there again.

Nice American Hotel Chain

Reviewed By solo_negro

You know what to expect when checking into a Holiday Inn and this one did not disappoint. I appreciated the complementary breakfast each morning. The staff was friendly and spoke English well. The rooms were spacious with a nice bathroom. The bedding was premium but the towels provided were below standard and a bit threadbare. There is an excellent restaurant directly across the street (Las Lenas) which is not affiliated with the hotel but well worth a visit for a meal.

Charming property

Reviewed By CindyB519

Charming property on the outskirts of Historic district. Two pools, pool bar, wedding venue, inside and covered outside dining. Menu is satisfactory. Sunday Champagne Brunch is excellent. Rooms are adequate. We had 2 beds, but I see 1 bed is available. Staff is very helpful, very friendly. Limited English in Cuernavaca. If you don’t have your car, taxi everywhere. 50 pesos one way to historic center. “Hop on” bus only—1 hour. City tour. Take Pullman Executive bus from Mexico City around 45 minutes - taxi is too much $80!! Visit Taxco!!! Be prepared for an evening of music if hosting a function here. It can be loud and quite late. 2:15 am! Too late for noise for other guests
