Property Details
Originally designed by Agustín Acevedo in the 1950s as a residential apartment building, the property has been reimagined as Motto by Hilton Guadalajara Centro Histórico. The hotel places guests at the center of the city’s cultural and social scene. Located one block from Plaza Fundadores, the hotel offers immediate access to the destination’s history, architecture, and local culture. Guests are within walking distance of some of the city’s most popular attractions, including Teatro Degollado, Instituto Cultural Cabañas, Guadalajara Cathedral, and San Juan Market.
Guestrooms were designed with flexibility in mind and are easily adaptable with multi-functional furniture and Hilton’s Confirmed Connecting Room technology, which offers several connecting room configurations to accommodate groups of all sizes. There are 69 connecting rooms, with the option to link up to three at once.
The hotel’s public spaces are anchored in two food & beverage concepts. La BienQuerida is Motto Guadalajara’s full-service restaurant concept, serving locally inspired food and beverage that offers a modern take on traditional Mexican cantinas. Doña Elvira, the hotel’s other food & beverage outlet, is a café serving traditional Mexican breads and artisanal coffees for guests and locals alike.
