Hotel Solar De Las Animas

Beautiful hotel, amazing location, beds and pillows to die for. Service .... 7 out of of 10 .... The only reason I didn't give this a perfect 10 out of 10 is because on arrival with our rental car from Guadalajara we were treated rudely by the hotel security guard. We arrived on Friday April 10 around 4 pm ... It was our first time in Tequila and at this hotel. There really isn't a huge drive way for cars so I pulled up like ANYONE would pull in to a parking space ... and the security guard (he was dressed in black and NOT the hotel bellman) didn't greet us with a smile or hello are you checking in ? .. instead he said "HEY TURN THE CAR AROUND" .. and since I am 100% fluent in Spanish and from Central America ... I sternly told the security guard to WATCH his tone ...We are checking in, to relax and I would do it ... But that's how you greet guest who don't know that cars are suppose to face out ??? Maybe hotel management should TRAIN the security guards to greet guest in a more proper and professional manner !!!!!! As for service of the rest of our stay we had excellent service ... at the both the pool downstairs and on the rooftop. Prices for drinks and food were very moderate considering this is the best hotel in Tequila. The rooms are gorgeous and spacious .. the air conditioning works perfect ... the days were there the temps were 95 degrees and within minutes of coming back to the room the room were nice and cold. The beds and pillows are excellent ... the bathrooms huge !!! I loved the open hallways were you can feel the breeze coming thru. we had a room that faced the pool and it was lovely. Location can not be beat .. literally on the town square. We parked our cars on arrival of Friday and didn't use it til late Monday afternoon when we left. Parking is free. Valet only. Price ... we paid approximately $300 USD a night .. but beware taxes are close to 20% a night .. but honestly it was worth it. We tried the La Antigua Casona restaurant and it was great .. the service was perfect and the food yummy ... the best churros with carmel and hot chocolate ... loved it ... Overall we had a great stay and would not hesitate to stay again ... But hotel management needs to address how security greets guest !!!! So 9 out 10 for everything !!!!!

Beautiful hotel in the center of Tequila Town. Amazing breakfast with a lot of choices for all kinds of diets. Sky bar is great with beautiful views. Staff is very welcoming and speaks very good English. Great value for the money.

Solar de las Ánimas is an absolutely beautiful and magical hotel. The architecture, atmosphere, and location in Tequila are outstanding, and the overall experience was amazing. Everything about the place feels authentic and special. The only downsides were poor room cleaning, which was inconsistent, and an issue at checkout where they couldn’t return my deposit due to a machine problem, which was inconvenient. Despite this, it’s a wonderful place to stay and I would still recommend it. With better housekeeping and smoother operations, it would be close to perfect.

A bit meh. Beautiful property and large rooms but a bit dated and lacked the atmosphere we were hoping for; quite expensive too. Rooftop pool is small, other pool was closed when we were there. Plus is the central location. It is Jose Cuervo’s hotel so that is the brand they are pushing but there are much better smaller distilleries around.
