We stayed one night only, found the accommodations adequate, the decor what I call 'Mexican Basic', meaning, bed, two night stands, small side table, hospital type T.V. bolted high on the wall, nothing more. Everything was clean, view over the ocean lovely, desk staff bilingual and helpful, great location, walking distance to all attractions in P.V. Somewhat overpriced at a... More

I just needed the room for one night and it was pleasant enough. The check in was not the greatest as the clerk was on the phone (personal call it sounded like) but once he was concentrating on me, he was prompt and apologetic. The room was good, it was more then I had expected, and was pleasant that it... More

We stayed here in a junior suite and enjoyed the most wonderful views from our balcony. The room was nice, immaculately clean, a fairly good size, and had a nice flat-screen tv on the wall. It was lacking in storage shelves or a dresser, but we made everything work. The kitchen was fine for us and we really enjoyed having... More

The hotel is in the perfect location for us, close to stores and all of our favorite restaurants. We were in a jr suite with a large balcony and a wonderful view. We spent time every day on the balcony reading or playing cards or just relaxing. The room was large with a king bed (kinda hard, but we slept... More

We've always stayed at either the Sea River Towers or the Velas Vallarta resorts, but this time we wanted to be downtown so we'd be right in the thick of things. After much research, we chose the Emperador. I was skeptical but the reviews here were pretty good. To our surprise, our room was perfect. We got the junior suite,... More

When we travel, we like to be able to experience the culture of the area we are in and still be comfortable. This place fit the bill. On our first night, we had a ocean view room that was just over the restaurant. It was nice, but we could only see the ocean, not the beach and the A/C only... More

We loved our stay at El Emperador. From check into checkout the staff was very accommodating. They went as far as to loan us money when we lost our wallet, bring towels and beach chairs down to the beach, they gave us a great deal on a extra night. The room had a great patio with a great view, the... More

We just returned home on Mar.14, 2012 from Puerto Vallarta and the wonderful Emperador. We had suite 201. It had a huge balcony with cooking facilities , glass and wood table with 4 chairs chairs,big fridge and a gas cooking range, had to put up the cutting board for a wind barrier as it would blow out when it was...

We have been going to Old Town in Puerto Vallarta since 1996. This was our first time at the Emperador and prior to leaving for home we made reservations for next year. We found the hotel extremely clean and the staff very friendly and helpful (especially Ian at the front desk and Isabella our maid). Our mattress was a bit... More
