Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located right in the center of Caracas, which holds the reputation of being an unsafe area at night. The rooms, though clean and comfortable, are rather dated. The service staff, while kind, seemed baffled by handling some situations. The dining experience is fine, although the location can be concerning for safety at night.
The hotel is located near lots of cheap cafes and food places with a couple of bars. The rooms have a rather romantic decoration; however, the lighting is poor, which may be an issue for paperwork or reading. On the downside, there was only one towel provided, the floor mat was very dirty, and the shower floor was slippery and dangerous. It would be safer to have wall bars for support.
I found the hotel to be conveniently located in the center of Caracas, close to Casa Simon Bolivar and various art galleries and museums. The rooms, although clean and comfortable with a rather romantic decor, lacked proper lighting for tasks like reading or paperwork. The service, while friendly, seemed inexperienced in dealing with unusual situations. The dining options were a mix of very nice and disappointing experiences, while the facilities were satisfactory overall.
The hotel rooms have a rather romantic decor and are very comfortable, but I found the lack of lighting to be a downside. The service is trustworthy and willing to assist with anything, including helpful advice on venturing out. The location is in a central area with convenient access to public transportation, although caution is advised at night. The dining experience offers excellent quality and generous portions of traditional regional dishes. The facilities are well-maintained and make for a pleasant stay overall.
