Hotel Riu Plaza in Guadalajara offers a sleek, modern stay in the heart of the city. The rooms are spacious, clean, and feature great views of the skyline—especially from the upper floors. Guests often praise the breakfast buffet for its variety and quality, and the rooftop pool and bar area provide a nice touch of luxury. Service is generally professional and efficient, though at peak times the front desk and elevators can get a bit crowded. The location is excellent for both business and leisure, with good access to restaurants, shopping, and major city landmarks. Overall, it’s a solid upscale choice for travelers looking for comfort, convenience, and great city views.

The views are certainly worth booking this hotel. Rooms were clean and the staff does a very good job of organizing and tidying up your room. The wait staff downstairs at the main restaurant were very good. However i noticed that most of the staff upstairs were much slower and i had to ask them several times to get me a drink. This was when they were not busy and during the day time for the record. I was unlucky and had the fortune of getting cold showers every day. I was too busy with my friends during my trip to make any changes so i just delt with it. The downstairs pool is really nice and overall i had a great experience. I noticed other friends staying at other hotels near by did not reciece same expereince ... granted they paid a little less but this hotel is certainly worth staying at. It might be rated 5 stars by Guadalajara standards .. but truly idk if they have any real 5 star hotels in the area. I would do your research. If you want a fun party hotel with amazing views and the 360 rooftop then you must stay here.
