Grand Hotel Tijuana, Tijuana, Mexico

The heated outdoor pool was really nice!

Tijuana B. C., México.

General Impressions This is a five-star hotel with all the amenities that you would expect from a first-class hotel. It has a golf course, a swimming pool, an executive floor, and a highly-rated restaurant, which was closed for the Easter weekend.

Pluses

This hotel is run with friendly efficiency. It is conveniently located about 15 minutes from the International Border, but it is away from the mobs of drunken teenagers who haunt the area around Avenida Revolucion. Nice heated pool!

Minuses

You don’t know you are in Mexico! But if you seek out a modern five-star hotel, what do you expect?

Cost

$75.00 per night. This rate was the AARP rate. (Yes, I am over 50!) Good value.

Recommendation

I would stay here again if I were in the area. It’s fine!

[...] This is a very pleasant restaurant, and I would probably go back. But next time, I would stick to seafood. It also seems to be off the normal tourist track, and most of the other customers were Mexicans. It was within easy walking distance of The Grand Hotel. [...]
