The staff was very helpful and hotel is located close to everything. I arrived at the hotel at 7 am and my room was ready by 11 am. Staff holds your luggage until your room is ready, so you can go explore 😉
This is a really nice affordable hotel. Very nice pool, good drinks. The only drawback was the WiFi which really sucked. If they fix the WiFi, I would definitely stay there again.

Building needs restoration,
Looks old and not well maintained. Staff is helpful and location is really good. But i wouldn’t recommend it.
Room was cleaned, Bar had a good selection and very prompt with food orders. BREAKFAST especially the Menudo was delicious 😋 The staff over all was very helpful thank you
Great location right in the best part of the Malecon. Friendly staff and great food. Been staying here for years and would not trade it for any other hotel
The hotel is very beautiful in a nice location unfortunately they’re very close to clubs so plan accordingly and I recommend asking for a room in the middle of the building and to go when it’s not peak season, the staff is very helpful and very attentive. The hotel is literally steps away from the beach and they kept the room spotless. If you arrive by taxi, you can always schedule a taxi pick up the day before your departure and the front desk school arrange it.
Gaviana is a bit old, but with many upgrades to meet the modern world and one's needs. It is perfectly located in the Golden Zone (Zona Dorada) with many restaurants, shops and entertainment just walking distance. They have their own spa, private access to the beach, buffet, pool and great ambiance.
Everything was great well recommended to anyone, the cleaning crew the best, Mary was so helpful and friendly

This used to be one of the top places along the Gold Coast but it's getting a bit shop-worn now. The elevators were wonky and it seems have been for quite some time, they just haven't bothered to fix them... Overall a great location, nice size rooms, pretty grounds.
Room was very clean housekeeping staff was amazing pool is a little outdated as it is an older hotel but very well maintained. if you are looking for a place to relax on a weekend this is not the place for you music is very loud until like 4 am as they have a club on the same premises . But if loud music doesn’t bother you then this is definitely a place to stay .
