I booked a Superior Room for 6 nights. I remembered that the hotel's website claimed that that type of room was on floor 6 and 7 but my room was on level 2. Unfortunately, during the weekend, nobody was able to find out if I could change to a more attractive room, and so I had to wait until Monday.... more

We booked a last minute family vacation to Puerto Vallarta via WorryFreeVacaations (a local tour operator) for a Saturday-to-Saturday stay. The total price for 5 people with 2 rooms and airfare was about $3600.00. We arrived at the airport, got our bags and did the entrance into the country and thing, got in the courtesy shuttle provided by our tour... more

This trip stayed almost 4 weeks at the Tropicana in a standard newer room on th 4th floor. Nothing ever changes here - but it shows more wear with each passing day and year. Our room, 406 had 1 electrical plug and it sparked, broken cable ends so TV did not work, toilet did not flush until after 3rd try... more

The Hotel Tropicana is a great little hotel in a perfect location on the South Side of town on Playa Los Muertos. Check-in was a breeze with absolutely no problems. As we had requested in the reservation, we were given a superior oceanfront room. It was fantastic. While simple and a bit spartan (some drawers to put clothes into might... more

We visited PV in October, 2007 and stayed at the Tropicana for four nights. While the views are stunning from the rooms on the higher levels of this hotel, the elevators were under repair or not working. Climbing 6 flights of stairs in the opressive PV climate (humid and very hot), was often overwhelming. We consider ourselves to be in... more

My husband and I spent 4 nights at the Hotel Tropicana in January, 2008. We went to Puerto Vallarta for a friend's wedding, but couldn't stay at the wedding hotel. We had Room 549 which is a king bed, superior room. We also had a friend who stayed in Room 627 which is a standard room with a single and... more

We just came back from the Tropicana and stayed there from Jan 10-17, 2008. We got an amazing deal of $328 CAN + tax which included flight, hotel and transfers. The main reason for staying there is the excellent location, but bear in mind it’s located in the GAY section of PV. I would recommend it for couples who want... more

We spent one week in Tropicana Hotel just before Christmas 2007. The deal was booked with www.exit.ca and the price was very reasonable: $500 total per person (flight from Toronto + hotel transfer + hotel room + breakfast daily). Hotel is rated at 3* but for the location, quality of room and service I would give more. Location: directly on... more

We initially stayed at Tropicana in March 2006, then returned in December 2007. Both times we had a great experience. The hotel is on the best beach in Puerto Vallarta, and you can stake out your place under a nice palapa there. The staff will bring you drinks, and you can buy snacks and souvenirs from vendors on the beach.... more
