Frommer's Exceptional

This chain specializes in properties that are suggestive of Mexico's heritage. No glass skyscraper here -- two five-story buildings made of stone, wood, plaster, and tile capture the feel of Mexican colonial architecture. Suites vary quite a bit: Eight have brick cupolas, and some have balconies. All are large, with a split-level layout and antique decorative touches. And all come with large, great bathrooms with tub/shower combinations. The "grand-class" suites have even bigger bathrooms with Jacuzzi tubs. They are also a bit larger and come with a few extras, such as a stereo. You can choose between two doubles or one king-size bed. The hotel is 2 blocks from Minerva Circle in western Guadalajara. Ask for a room that doesn't face López Mateos. Facilities: Restaurant; bar; small outdoor heated pool; golf at local club; fitness room; discounts at local day spa; concierge; tour desk; car rental; business center; executive business services; room service; in-room massage; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms
