Hotel Hércules

An ex hacienda with a focus on design and art. Really appreciated the vision of this place. Not fussy, stylish and minimalist. Loved the vibe. Comfiest bed, great staff. Would absolutely recommend as well as go back again for a visit! And Cara larga has her workshop in the back. We love her work.

A wonderful experience from arrival….beautiful space, transformed from a manufacturing facility to a world class hotel and spa. Enjoyed all my time here. The beer, the pool, the rooms! All excellent. Staff very attentive with even the GM stepping out to welcome us and provide a history

Built mid 19th century as a textiles fabric, turned to a beer producer and to what is now. A beautiful old construction guarding over a minimalist, interior renovated boutique hotel in which you’ll se the contrast of age, nature and modernism. Food from 2 different restaurants, Amazing Spa, Pool, Volleyball court, Bar, Art Gallery, Local Market, Beers straight from the factory, special editions only existent at the hotel and on international competitions even Petanca game at this great destination.

I went for a work related event. I stayed there three nights, and the place is absolutely gorgeous. UT has a 30-40s vibe. It is very well-maintained and takes you back in time. Every little detail is cute, sophisticated, but oldy. Breakfast was always tasty, fresh, and quick, and one day, I got to the Hercules brewery to eat pizza. I recommend the hotel to have a relaxing stay in one of its neighborhoods.

1. Mosquitoes: the place is infested with mosquitoes. they are everywhere! expect to find 30-40 in your room. It might take 1-2 days for someone to react to this issue (as its not viewed as a problem)|2. Location: There is nothing around the hotel, it's a typical dull working class Mexican neighborhood that likes to party until late. There is a "river" that runs along the hotel, the surrounding building have waste water pipes than directly drains into this outdoor sewer.|3. Staff: the entire staff does not know how to talk to people. To know when someone needs attention, or to know when to leave people alone. With exception of the luggage valet (who somehow operates with manners and a voice of calm kindness (he should be the manager))|4. Water: knowing the probable source of the water, the cleanliness of the beer and baths become questionable. We didnt receive a clear answer to this question.|5. Fish Source: A fish restaurant in central Mexico! How fresh can it be? The waiter didnt know where the fish came from, additionally the chef had no idea. I hope its not the "river"|6. Sleep: We didnt get much sleep. Expect loud late night parties, slamming doors, train noise and vibrations. And constant mosquito attacks.|7. Spa: its got the paint peeling, rusty pipe industrial look. Cool right? Why don't we do this in the US? Good question, I will tell you. The chemicals used in industrial processes almost always render the space too toxic to use. Especially as it relates to food and bathing.|8. Boring: After your selfie at the Hercules fountain and a 15 walk, you are probably thinking: "Can we leave now?"|I want to leave this on a positive note: if you happen to find yourself within 15 minutes of the hotel and want a snack, the restaurant at the front of the hotel is ok.

Beautiful, definitely an amazing hotel right next to the amazing Hercules brewery.

Just wow. The hotel is something out of another world altogether. From the moment you walk in, rustic, industrial, and heartfelt decor sweep you into a space that films would dream of using as a set. High ceilings, adventurous tunnels, a trendy brewery and even a lounge for dancing are just some of the highlights that make this place unique. Don't miss the opportunity to climb to the top of the clock tower for a cool view and an elusive living area to work out of. The food is fantastic. The eggs benedict are to die for if you have breakfast at El Comedor. The chamorro at the brewery melts in your mouth. Pizzas, and a delicious tostada de rez are other notable items there. If you like wheat beer, the Buen Chofer is super tasty. Salon Salvaje is the spot to dance and hang out at, with weekly entertainment available, it is a nocturnal haven. Danny at the pool and at El Comedor was terrific, he never ceased to greet us with a smile and take care of our drink & food orders. Carlos at the valet, a huge thank you to you for treating my family like they were part of yours. Make sure to check out the shop for cute and comfy bathing suits. If you visit the spa, the plunge pools are awesome. Should you decide to request a massage, I definitely recommend Alicia. She gave me one of the best massages I've had in a while. Overall, a lovely, warm and inviting experience. Thank you Hotel Hercules and your devoted staff for a memorable stay!

Wow. What can I say other than that this place is absolutely incredible. I recently stayed after visiting the Craft Brewery of the same name that's also located in the complex (a huge, renovated 19th century textile factory!), and had an amazing experience. The room itself was spacious, thoughtfully curated with premium touches, and had a gorgeous view of the inner courtyard and historic clocktower. Multiple swimming pools, a hot tub, cold plunge tub, spa, and live music hall all a short walk away -- every amenity you'd want for a fun and relaxing stay.  And the fact that you're so close to Cervecería Hércules, a world class brewery / beer garden and restaurant on the opposite side of the complex, which is putting out great beers and food in a gorgeous setting, is a truly unique and special experience. The combination of the Hotel and Brewery under one roof is going to become a very popular beer destination very soon.  Can't wait to return!
