TLAQUEPAQUE BOUTIQUE HOTEL

Casa Armonia Hotel is a quaint local getaway in Guadalajara. It is perfect for a night stay near Vida Sana for a therapy treatment. "What a beautifully renovated Jalisco style boutique hotel with some of the nicest people to work with. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, the breakfast was well done, not your typical “free” hotel breakfast. The staff was very helpful and gracious...thanks Gabby, Alex and Blas and they all speak English if that is a requirement. I would want to stay here again if I ever get back to the area." Texas traveller, then a California traveller: "The hotel is very well located in Tlaquepaque, about a 3 minute walk from the main plaza. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. Our rooms (Alegria and Amor) were large, clean, comfortable and pretty, though not luxurious. The pool was cold in February, but probably incredible during the hotter months. Free breakfast in the morning was oftentimes our best meal of the day, really well done. Keep in mind that it is in a city and the street is busy, so even with the windows closed there will be some traffic noise at night." It is a short walk in a safe neighborhood for some amazing window shopping in Tlaquepaque. The price is reasonable and the reviews on Hotels.com and TripAdvisor are good. 1,100 pesos per nite or $55 USD - Hotels.com Casa Armonia   Information on Vida Sana in comments.
