River Side Hotel

Chiapa De Corzo

This hotel is reasonably close to the Tuxtla Gutierrez airport, affordable, clean and generally comfortable. Following my usual review pattern, here are the Good, the Bad and the Ugly: 

The Good:  I have 3 high priorities, and this hotel checked all 3 boxes. It didn't smell bad. It had comfortable sheets. It had a mini-split A/C that worked well enough to keep the room a nice temperature. The room was clean, the water hot, the wifi free, and the mattress comfortable (not something I can always say about Mexican hotels). 

The Bad: In our room, there was a window at the top of the shower that shown a bright green light into the room. Although I put a towel over the door, it still lit up the room enough to interfere with getting to sleep. Thankfully, the management turned off the colored lights outside the patio-side, otherwise it would've felt like trying to sleep at the circus! 

The Ugly:  Although the sheets and mattress were comfortable, there were no true bed pillows. For our king-sized bed, there were three small, very firm pillows with covers matching the bedspread. They were not good pillows for sleeping, but the worst part was the scratchy covers. I realized the next morning that our traveling companions DID have bed pillows with appropriate pillowcases though. So if we ever return to River Side Hotel, I will definitely make sure to ask for proper bed pillows. 

Overall, our stay was really pretty good! The scratchy pillows were really the only bad thing, and next time I'll know to ask and not just assume that none would be available.

When flying out of Tuxtla

I stayed in a large suite, the pool is very nice, overlooking the Grijalva River and the only thing I saw was the parking lot, as it is very small, but it is the only one, everything very good.

Everything is fine.

I enjoy the attention of the hotel - very good rooms, very comfortable beds, bathrooms at their height, excellent rooms and more than anything super attention - I enjoy staying at this hotel during my stay in these places.

Excellent hotel 

Good facilities, quite clean, the services are very good, very close to the airport, the view towards the canyon is good, if you want to go to Chiapa de Corzo, San Cristobal, etc. your location is excellent.

Style, location, price.

It's the closest hotel to the airport we've found, it's very close to the cottage on corzo, in case of road closures it's a good option, it has very nice views, the treatment is friendly, it's a highway hotel.

Near the international airport.

A hotel that is located very close to the entrance to the sumidero canyon is also very close to the town of Chiapa de Corzo. Generally I think it's a pretty good hotel for the price. The rooms are quite clean and comfortable. The restaurant is almost always empty, although the taste of the food is not bad. It's basically a hotel for sleeping, as it offers nothing more than activities.

The price is affordable.

We stayed one night,  The room was clean and the bed was good.  We went on the boat ride  through the  canyon, so it was a great place to stay.  And close to the airport.    The pool was nice to enjoy after the boat ride.  We  had dinner at their reatruant but  there was only a few options on their menu to choose from.  What we had was good ,the guacamole was great.   We would stay there again.

Convenient Hotel

We booked 2 nights and the location was perfect, walking distance from the pier if you decide to take a boat ride on the Canon. Beautiful view from the room, good value.

Nice Stay

We didn't have a nice impression of River Side because we arrived there late in the night with a huge storm, and there was no light in the whole building. A couple of guys came to pick up us with some lamps, then we spent the night in a big room with a very nice bathroom. Anyway the room was clean and air conditioned. Only in the morning we could have a sight of the fantastic view of our room on the Valley of Sumidero (not really on the canyon).

Nice terrace for having breakfast with fantastic view.
Very good place to stay to plan the visit at Canyon de Sumidero, instead of sleeping in Chapa de Corzo.
