From Antonio the cat greeting us on check in to the welcome Margaritas by the River, this place made a great impression. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the room had an old world charm, we had a cute balcony and there was cool art all around. The location was great! Make sure to stroll on the island in the river. The setting was quiet and I thought the hotel was good value for the money.

This older and beautiful hotel sits in the heart of Old Town so is central to many fine restaurants and great shopping. The manager, Martha, is amazing. She is knowledgeable of the area and professional at all times with a warmness that we very much appreciated. The pool area along the river were wonderful! All in all a lovely few days spent there!

Garlands del Rio is a charming boutique hotel. It is their people that stand out and keep people coming back. Martha, Rico and Ivan are all exceptional. The hotel itself is very nice, clean and convenient to everything in the Zona Romantica. We were there during the cartel violence and the hotel staff kept us safe and secure. They did their best under extremely difficult situations. We definitely will return and visit them again.

This place is pure magic ✨ with a genuinely warm, customer-service-oriented staff who make you feel at home from the moment you arrive. Misael took wonderful care of us at the garden patio, Marta was incredibly helpful arranging our whale watching and sunset cruise, and Alex’s charismatic personality added such a special touch to our stay. If you’re a cat lover, you’re in for a treat! Simply leave your balcony or bathroom door slightly open (it’s completely safe), and Amelia and Antonio — the sweetest, most affectionate cats — might sneak in to say hello, purr, and ask for a little love. It’s such a charming part of the experience. Garlands del Río is perfectly located in the heart of the city, within walking distance to everything. You may have seen things in the media about Mexico or Puerto Vallarta, but we felt safe, welcomed, and cared for throughout our stay — and we are already planning to come back! Mexico and its people are truly amazing. Don’t let the news fool you. We are so grateful for the hospitality and for being welcomed so warmly into this beautiful country. We love Boutique Hotel Garlands del Río — the staff, the cats, the river, the ambiance, the scent in the air… every single detail. You will not regret staying here ❤️ Louis & Lilli /Panama & Cuba / and we live in Miami. VIVA MEXICO CABRONES!!!!!

This was our first time staying here. Our room was clean and had a beautiful view across the river. I loved listening to the music from the restaurant across the river as well. The staff were very kind and did their best to make our stay as pleasant as possible including the breakfasts that we had on the outdoor terrace every morning.
