I absolutely loved my stay at Villa Ganz Boutique Hotel! Located in the vibrant Chapultepec area, the hotel is perfectly situated—safe, walkable, and surrounded by great restaurants and cafes. What makes this place even more special is its history: originally a 1930s mansion, it was beautifully renovated into what is now the first boutique hotel in all of Guadalajara. The French-inspired charm and timeless elegance can be felt throughout the property.
The staff was incredibly attentive and welcoming. We arrived early and were kindly allowed to check in ahead of time for a small fee. They even offered us coffee upon arrival—a thoughtful touch that set the tone for a warm and comfortable stay.
Our room was cozy and well-appointed, with a super comfy bed and pillows. I especially loved the French doors, which we left open to enjoy the fresh breeze. The courtyard is stunning, with a peaceful ambiance and a beautiful on-site restaurant perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring.
A couple of minor notes: the bathroom lighting was a bit dim, which made it tricky for makeup application, and the shower design caused some water to spill onto the bathroom floor.
That said, these were small inconveniences compared to the overall charm, comfort, and hospitality we experienced. Villa Ganz is a true gem—and a perfect choice for anyone visiting Guadalajara who appreciates history, style, and exceptional service.
