The Grand Hotel Acapulco (formerly Hyatt Regency Acapulco) is an Acapulco tradition. The rooms are large and comfortably decorated. The best place to spend some time here is the pool. It's active and a great place to cool off from the hot Acapulco sun. The hottest thing about Acapulco is the nightlife and this hotel is located within walking distance of many of the hot spots.
What I wish I
could change:
The hotel is a little far from the center of downtown but there are some very popular clubs within walking distance.
Why YOU should
go:
Acapulco offers an abundance of nightlife and daytime activities.
