HOTEL SUITES LA SIESTA, Puerto Vallarta

The property sits on a hillside above the Malecon, offering panoramic sea views but requiring a climb of 100 steps from street level. The nearest dining options include Pipi's, La Dolce Vita Vallarta Malecon, and Barcelona Tapas-all 0.5 km away. For those with groceries or heavy luggage, a taxi is recommended to avoid the incline. Once at the hotel, the elevated position rewards guests with spectacular views. Free private parking is available on site but must be reserved in advance.

The rooms and suites are clean and decorated in an older Mexican style, with many offering outstanding sea views that compensate for the decor's age. Each unit includes a private bathroom, a sitting area with a dining table, a flat-screen TV, tea and coffee making facilities, an AM/FM alarm clock, and kitchen utensils for light cooking. Some suites have a patio. While rooms are charming and spacious with everything needed for a comfortable stay, the Wi-Fi can be spotty in certain room locations. The views are consistently praised as the defining feature of the accommodation.

The outdoor swimming pool is free to use and open year-round, featuring a pool with a view over the bay. Sun loungers and beach chairs are available free of charge, and the pool area is often quiet, allowing for a private-feeling swim. A separate kids' pool is also free. For relaxation beyond the pool, massage services are offered for an additional charge. While there is no gym or spa on site, the combination of a serene pool, sun terrace, and excellent views provides a solid leisure offering for a city-centre hillside hotel.

The property offers a range of guest services: a 24-hour front desk, private check-in/check-out, and free daily housekeeping. Luggage storage is available for early arrivals or late departures. Safety deposit boxes are free. A shuttle service and car hire can be arranged for an additional charge. Parking is free but must be reserved in advance and is accessible for those with reduced mobility. The property features a lift, family rooms, soundproof rooms, and a designated smoking area. 24-hour security with CCTV and fire extinguishers is in place. Wi-Fi is free in public areas but can be spotty in rooms.
