Etel Suites

Acapulco


High above Old Acapulco, with views of both the bay and the Pacific Ocean, this hotel has modest but well-kept rooms in a very quiet part of town. Management is benevolent, and the terraces offer outrageous city vistas. Mid-century modernists will love the apartments' dated furnishings, while families will appreciate the children's play area and accommodating rooms.
