Does anyone know of a good hotel near GDL that is pet friendly and I'm talking large dog? Need it for tomorrow night! Driving directions would be appreciated. Thanks

can't tell you how nice these are or how close to the airport, but I do believe they are pet friendly. And when I ran the search, I used your dates, so they should have rooms available.

Hotel Presidente Intercontinental

Crowne Plaza GDL

Villa Ganz

Del Carmen Concept

Hotel Edicon Uno

Hostal de Maria GDL

With the except of the last one, these are all rather expensive. There may be limitations on the size of the dog. If it were me with a large dog at such short notice, I might just pop into the cleanest looking paso de hotele near the airport.

Hope it helps, and let me know how it goes. Safe Travels.

Isn't there a NoTell on the road from Chapala to Guad?? Often you can have a dog in those and they are clean and inexpensive... cannot think of the name of the one I remember seeing???

Not sure I have the name right, but there is a no tell motel just before the airport when you are heading north. It is bright blue/purple and I think the name is Venice...at least I know it starts with a "V"

Motel Eddy's is about 6 - 8 km. south of the Airport.

There is a hotel right at the airport that is pet friendly. It's called the Casa Grande. Here's the Expedia site for it: http://www.expedia.ca/Guadalajara-Hotels-Casa-Grande-Aeropuerto-Gdl.h982725.Hotel-Information#

I have always thought the Motel Vienna looks nice. Never stayed at either but but are close.

First of all Eddy's was the dumping ground of choice for 15 (sometimes referred to as 18) dismembered bodies last week. The hotel Casa Grande is the closest to the airport, but it probably the worst place to go if you want to sleep, eat, or drink. The beds are made with a mixture of foam and concrete. A little too much concrete. They serve a wide variety of left overs for dinner. I topped off some cold reheated enchiladas with a new form of flan that I needed a steak knife to to cut. I asked the waiter what year the flan was produced and he didn't crack a smile, replying that he didn't know.

The bar was another treat. The bar tender didn't know what white wine was (I asked for vino blanco) and began by searching among the tequilas. We each had a glass of water while waiting for a manager who might know. We finally gave up and had a beer each. Oh, the free drinks coupons we received when we checked in? They covered the water, not the beer. I complained upon checking out and the clerk said I should have known that the coupons I had were not the right ones. HUH? That's what I was given. How the hell would I know? $150US per night.

I had the opposite experience at Casa Grande this past January. No noise issues, decent bed, didn't eat dinner there but the breakfast buffet was excellent with many choices, great friendly service - including a free ride to Tlaquepaque the next day. The room was US$86 for the night.

It looks like the moral of the story is....the less you pay, the better it is??????

Casa Grande at the airport accepts pets, according to Expedia. We have stayed there with pets. Walk to the terminal.
