What guests think

Reviews of Hotel Velario describe a central, budget-friendly stay near the border and nightlife, with secure gated parking and generally friendly staff, but note a gritty surrounding area, variable room quality, and occasional maintenance issues like weak Wi‑Fi or AC.

Cleanliness feedback is mixed, ranging from very clean rooms to reports of stained towels, pests, and missed housekeeping or shortages of towels. Some guests mention thin walls, echoing hallways, and a few windowless or dated rooms, affecting sleep. The on-site terrace restaurant and bar receive frequent praise for tasty, convenient meals and drinks, though the free breakfast is basic and timing can slip. Expect a practical, secure base best suited to adults visiting the area.

The hotel is good for the most part. They have multiple types of rooms to choose from, standard rooms to suites with a jacuzzi. Unfortunately the room i stayed in (401) is my least favorite of the four above reception suites. It needs some updating and it has an exercise bike in it that's been there for years and doesn't work. Also the onsite gym is small, it has two treadmills, an elliptical machine and a multiple use weight system, but only some of the equipment is functional.

There was no hot water. I reserved a room with a jacuzzi and I was not able to use is due to lack of hot water. I was told there was an issue with the system and that the entire hotel was out of hot water for a couple of days. When I check out I was told I would have to speak to the manager but they stated they were not allowed to give me the managers name.

This hotel now has amenities like a spa, a gym and a small restaurant and bar onsite. The rooms are nice , and they have a variety of different kinds of rooms, singles , doubles, family rooms, suites and suites with jacuzzi. The only problem I had this visit was that I tried to check in before 3pm. And it appears that between 2 and 3 is when they do their staff change. I had to wait almost an hour to check in.

Una experiencia increíble en el Hotel Velario Desde el momento en que llegué, el personal del Hotel Velario me hizo sentir como en casa. Todos son increíblemente atentos, amables y profesionales. Siempre están dispuestos a ayudar con una sonrisa y realmente se nota que se preocupan por el bienestar de los huéspedes. Las habitaciones son modernas, limpias y muy cómodas. La cama es de las más cómodas en las que he dormido, y los detalles en la decoración crean un ambiente relajante. Todo está impecable: el baño, la iluminación, y la limpieza diaria es de primera. La ubicación también es excelente, muy conveniente y segura, con fácil acceso a todo. Además, el servicio al cliente es de un nivel que pocos hoteles ofrecen — se nota la dedicación del equipo en cada detalle. Definitivamente recomiendo el Hotel Velario a cualquiera que busque una estancia cómoda, segura y con un servicio excepcional. ¡Sin duda volveré!

The property is not in the best of neighborhoods, however, it is very secure. Your car is protected by guards 24/7. The hotel is clean. The restaurant is small but the food is good and very reasonably priced. My biggest complaint was that the mattress was quite hard and we all had difficulty controlling the heater in the room. I contacted the front desk and he said he would send someone to help us. No one ever came. But. . . if you're strapped for cash, it is a good value, clean and safe. Just don't walk around too much at night.
