This was our first time staying here, and it was for my birthday weekend, celebrating with family. Unfortunately, from the moment we arrived, the service at the front desk, poolside, and the restaurant was disappointing. Although our group was large, we’re experienced travelers and always tip well, especially since many of us have worked in restaurants and food service. However, the majority of the staff provided poor service, with a few exceptions who were kind and accommodating. Overall, the experience was underwhelming, and I’m not sure if I would choose to stay here again. On a positive note, the pool was lovely. Construction was happening all in the entrance. Parking was easy. There is a large parking lot across from the hotel.

This is a great hotel, first time staying here. Customer service is amazing, all areas of the hotel were kept up.

We had a modern room that over looked the pool. The car park across the road was easy to access and though reception was busy, we had access to the room an hour earlier than expected which was great.

I’d usually give it 5 stars but this time was different. There was a new employee I hadn’t seen there before and he was rude!! Also, our bathroom door had an issue and we had to tell them 3 days straight in order to get someone to come to just take a look. Not the experiences I’ve had before at all. Usually everyone is super nice, attentive and friendly, not this time though.

I always enjoy my at San Nicolas Hotel . It's the only place I stay now . I tried many other hotels and they weren't bad but this has become my favorite . I feel safe , my vehicle is secure and the staff is always friendly . I love the olympic size pool which is well maintained . The only thing I am not happy about is if you're in the pool and want to order a drink , the waiters rarely come around and It takes way too long to get your drinks . That is the only unaccceptable practice poolside . I am not talking about an isolated incident . Even when there are only a few people poolside . I have to hunt down the waiters . That is something that has to be addressed . Other than that complaint , I love the place !

We've stayed in many Hotels in Ensenada, and this Hotel was one of the best so far. The Hotel did need a little upkeeping in the hall ways and carpets were pretty stained which gave a particular smell. The room was amazing!! Very clean and super comfortable bed. Having a refrigerator would've been nice to keep our drinks cool though. The pool is big and very nice. We didn't get a chance to get into the jacuzzi because it was always packed. Usually the same people were there for hours, hopefully they didn't leave with there insides cooked! They should have a sign limiting the amount of people in the jacuzzi at one time and also a time limit of 30-45 minutes at one time. Overall service and food was great!! We will definitely stay again!

This is a beautiful place, with amazing facilities and friendly staff. Nice location, it takes about 20 minutes (walking) from the hotel to Ensenada's historic downtown area. The restaurant is also amazing, specially the Sunday buffet. The only reason we didn't give it 5 stars under "Property condition & facilities" is that, the hallway has a weird smell, probably because the carpets get wet when people go to their room after being in the pool, and there are no windows. Having said that, we recommend this place and we'll be back for sure.

We stay there every year and the only issue is that when we request a pool view room they say they are not available and always put us on the top floor where they have the air conditioning and it’s too loud. Other than that it’s a cool place. The casino is fun too! Also they started doing day pass for people that want to use their pool and it was crowded.

The property is excellent, there is some temporary road construction that is a bit inconvenient. Great pool, excellent service, super clean and an incredible value. Great staff and they have secure and ample parking. Close to downtown and the malecón. A quiet area and safe area

Nice and clean hotel in Ensenada. Excellent service and facilities. My only complain is about the pool hours. For a big pool they should open it early (before 9am) to allow guests to do some laps before the crow arrives. Also avoid if you want a relaxing time as the pool gets really busy during the day with kids screaming and enjoying their time.

The location was great very close to everything. This location is 2 blocks away from the port of Ensenada. The hotel grounds were clean and the food options were decent and affordable. The only thing was that the bathroom in my room was not too clean there was hair everywhere. The hotel is a little outdated but the rooms are remodeled which is great.

When we arrived we were greeted. It all started great.They have private parking which you have to check in first before you can enter. They have a casino, i did not go into. Husband went and did not care for it, and he is a gambler but this was different and just not his vibe. He said it was packed, You need to upload cash on card Room we had a pool view it was nice, clean and bed was comfortable with balcony and 2 chairs. Bathroom is remodeled. Only major down fall was the AC once we turned it on it left a BIG puddle. They tried tonfix it they could've. They wanted to move us to a down graded room cuz they said they had no more pool views. We had such a hassle getting answers. The night staff is unorganized, supposedly there was no manager on duty to help and answer my questions or resolve my issue other then moving me to a room with view of the dirt street. We ended up with a bucket in our room so it would catch the water. Mind you its June summertime. Management was also so rude to me. Eye rolling, refused to give me names n emails. Just attitude all around. They wanted to rectify the sitwith free margaritas. So much more to this interaction. Not enough space. Pool is great clean. The waitstaff at the pool is friendly. The service was kinda slow. Even slower for food orders. We had 1 bad rude lady apparently she was in charge of the pool bar. Rude with attitude. The kind that talks to you but doesn't look at you. Food and drinks all delicious everything we ordered

There was an issue with electrical noise in my room and they were unwillimg to give me another room with higher rate despite the fact taht i couldnt stay in my room. The room ingot instead was facing the street and naighbor's A/C fans that produce even more noise than the issue in my original room. Bad customer service overall!

The Hotel is amazing. The rooms have been updated and the pool area is definitely a focal point. My wife and I stood there for 4 days. The restaurant and bar are inviting and offer great food and drinks. Along with outstanding service. Housekeeping does a great job along with the parking security. Did I mention that theres a casino attached to the hotel?!
