Room was clean but worn. Okay for overnight stay which is what I utilized it for. The lobby was clean, but the carpets in the room floors should be replaced and were not vacuumed. Outside bar was good. I would stay there again because I liked the location in the heart of the city; will look for other accommodations also.
Pros:
Clean, with nice old-style furniture in good condition.
Excellent location if you are okay with not staying near the beach.
Tons of restaurants (check reviews before going), live music, handicraft stores, the famous Güero Güera ice cream shops, La Parroquia restaurants, local shoe stores, and more.
Gentle and helpful staff, although some do not speak English.
Close to the Malecón, tourist two-story open bus rides, the Marines Museum, and many historical buildings.
Cons:
Outdoor live music can be annoying late at night.
If you need a safe, make sure you request a room with a working one, and double-check that it is securely attached to the wall when you arrive.
Far from the nicest beaches.

I’ve lived and stayed at this hotel since 1979. It is sad to see how run down the place is. It needs attention. However, the staff is amazing, it is clean and safe.

Good hotel. GREAT Location except for the music out front. But it didnt bother me much. Room had a lot of space. But, if you have respiratory issues shud reconsider. Our room had mold. But as experiences go. I was comfortable. Thanks Gran hotel Diligencias:)
The staff was friendly and helpful, especially at the end of our 3-night stay by arranging our early morning taxi to the airport. The room was clean and large with a table and two chairs, and a king-sized bed. The hotel is right on the main square (el zocalo) so we could go out and hear live music and see dances.
Unfortunately, as with many old buildings, there was an awful smell of the sewer emanating from the bathroom. It seemed to be strongest in the morning. But, short of knocking the beautiful hotel down and rebuilding, there is probably very little that be done to improve the smell.
Very clean bedroom. Helpful staff. Lovely comfortable beds. Beautiful central location.

The room was spacious and fairly clean, I loved the view to the central garden, it didn’t have microwave, fridge or iron which was needed. I had booked a room for 3 but didn’t realize that I accidentally booked a king suite, so I requested to be moved to a room with 2 beds, and they accommodated without any issues. Upon check out they helped us calling a taxi to the airport. I loved the fact that there are a lot of restaurants, cafes, ice cream shops and attractions near by like the malecón and San Juan de Ulua.
