False Advertisement, No Ac No Hot water

I choose this hotel specifically because it has the Bath Tub in room. When I arrive to the hotel NONE of the rooms have this option.. but I had already traveled all the way here so I committed. Two other major problems aside from the hotel lying about an amenity they didn’t have. The AC did not work! Uncomfortable all night The Hot water wasn’t HOT!! couldn’t even shower... at least there wasn’t bugs in the bet.

Bar The Zar

This is a completely bare bones hotel. If you have no other options, I suppose you could survive, but if you want to be comfortable: choose anywhere else. Stains on the curtains, toilet wouldn't flush (and not repaired), no water available in the ENTIRE hotel (told to walk several blocks to convenience store), bed was like a brick and nothing but white cement walls. Not surprisingly, they wouldn't refund my second night.

Dont Hesitate

Great place and very close to the scenic Paseo Montejo and also near the route to Puerto Progreso. The room was very spacious and comfortable. Only issue i had was the a/c unit from the initial room given to me. For those folks that are not fans of humidity overnight, you may have to test out the ac unit prior to fully accepting the room.

Great hotel and staff, spotless, privacy issue

My husband and I loved everything about our stay at Hotel Zar except for one issue- there's no privacy in the bathroom. The bathroom has a glass door that doesn't reach the ceiling or the floor and there's no fan to muffle the noise. We ended up throwing a towel over the door and turning on the shower when we were using the bathroom so that we had at least a little privacy. For married couples that's probably fine, but I wouldn't recommend staying in the same room with someone who's just a friend.

The staff was very helpful with some issues we had that were not hotel related. We were very comfortable, but would rather have been in a more central location. Unfortunately, nothing was available.

Basic hotel.

Location was good. Lacks a few amenities like shower floor mat and basin hand towel. We stayed on the 5th floor and the street noise can be heard. Ok for a short trip.
