Hotel Las Salinas

Las Salinas was a great little hotel, ideally located just behind the main road where all the Collectivos run. So central, but quiet – with a security gate closed every night. The friendly owner, Christian, originally from France but living in Mexico for over 40 years, was happy to up-grade us to a larger “family” room when we realized we wanted more space and cooking facilities for our 9 nights’ stay. It was worth paying the extra for the extra comfort. The room was well equipped and cleaned, with fresh towels, every day. Christian and his family were helpful and welcoming and we would happily stay with them another time. The hotel was within easy walking distance of the Municipal Market, our excellent dentist, and the town beach. Zihua is full of very reasonably priced shops and restaurants … and strolling on the wide promenade beside the sea in the evening is a colourful, musical experience. Our French friend from last year, Frederic, took us out for a wonderful day on the water, whale watching. Find him at Mero Tours. Buy your ticket from El Centro de Autobuses for the best luxury coaches when you need to move on. We liked ETN bus company, but it depends on your destination which company you can use.

The owner Christian and his son Brian were great hosts (plus housekeeper and night watchman). My wife and I stayed for three weeks in February and had a great time. We were in walking distance of two beaches, numerous restaurants/bars and the market. The hotel is very clean and just far enough out of the centre that it is quiet.

Our room lacked outside space such as a balcony. However I was told by another guest at the hotel that there were tables and chairs in the lobby near the pool pre Covid. It would have been nice to have an outside space to sit and hopefully the table and chairs will return once Covid is over.

Christian and Brian are very helpful and Christian speaks 4 languages. They both speak good English and have a great knowledge of the area. The price of the hotel is well within anyones budget and the rooms are kept spotlessly clean

My only gripe was the how close to the wall the toilet was, though not all rooms are the same every thing else was great. It's about 800 metres to the beach but I loved the exercise and I saw different things every day

We found on arrival that things were not as we expected. There were no shared kitchen facilities. There is nowhere really made to sit outside like a balcony or patio. Travel during Covid has led to many disappointments. No body updates their webpage.

The staff took excellent care of us and we ended up having a very enjoyable stay. Our room was cleaned daily and we got clean towels daily as well. The WiFi was strong. There is a microwave in the lobby and we had a mini fridge in our room so we managed to save on some of our restaurant expenses. They moved us to the end of row of rooms and provided a couple of chairs so we could sit in the hallway outside our room in the afternoon in the fresh air. The beds are great. They offer secure parking (space limited). It is an easy walk to lots of shops, bars, and restaurants. The TV has lots of channels including sports and many in English.

Can’t beat it for price and location. Great air con and wifi. Comfy bed. Very clean. Near town but not noisy. Had fridge and access to microwave. Tiny pool good for kids. NOT luxury in any way, shape or form but I’d def stay there again. Owner and son super helpful and nice.

Could use a little updating but that’s minor.

i was able to upgrade my room to a very comfortable, clean kitchenette that served my purposes perfectly. Helpful hosts that spoke good English, but were willing to let me practice my poor Spanish. location was only about a ten minute walk to the waterfront.

Well, it didn’t offer an ocean view, but I knew that when I rented it.

The staff speaks English and they were helpful during my stay. The rooms and hotel were very clean and quiet. The Hotel Las Salinas is located close to the center of the town so it’s a short walk to most of the places I wanted to go to. Overall, it’s a great value and I plan on staying here again on my next visit to Zihuatanejo.

We stayed in the king room which had a strong air conditioner and window. The most fantastic thing about this property is the staff. The receptionist was kind and thoughtful and provided professional hospitality to all the guests.

A little disappointing fact was that the pool was located right next to the reception where everyone was hanging around and could see you all the time. Except that, the property met our expectations.

This is a budget hotel. Don't expect anything more. Beds are cozy. Staff are great. Everything is good. Lovely inexpensive accommodation

The Hotel Las Salinas is located close to central Zihuatanejo. The Hotel staff are very helpful and friendly. The Hotel is very clean. It is a family Hotel and Christian and his family are very attentive to their guests needs. Christian speaks English, Spanish, French, and German fluently.
