Tropicana Los Cabos, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

Beautiful small hotel right in the heart of San Jose del Cabo. I love the attractive decor (especially the original art on exhibit), the comfortable guest room (lots of good amenities), the excellent cuisine (sophisticated menu), and of course the location. I’d visited Los Cabos several times before but this was the first time I’d stayed in a hotel that really allowed me to feel like I was in San Jose del Cabo — I loved being able to walk right out the door and stroll one block to be in the town’s main square. Perfect for shopping, dining and enjoying the many art galleries. The hotel also has a spa with great service and even offers yoga sessions. Overall a really great experience.

Could not have asked for more from a hotel. The location was perfect and the grounds are beautiful. The staff could not have been friendlier, beginning with the initial greeting from Ignacio (who helped us with our luggage) and ending again with him providing us a farewell. Would absolutely recommend this hotel to everyone!

We very much enjoyed our stay at this newly renovated property located just off the main square of little San Jose del Cabo. Booked two doubles rooms on points and was not offered any Diamond upgrade in spite of very low occupancy. In fact they seemed to place most guests in rooms at the rear of the property. Breakfast was tasty albeit skimpy for the free continental benefit. Expect to pay for anything on the menu that’s hot. Samuel was our server all three days of our stay and was very friendly. Ubers may be accessed from the front or the rear of the property and typically arrive in 1-2 minutes. The pool area closes earlier than the stated time of 7 PM. Have to ask for the jets to be activated in the spa. Service in the poolside bar was ok but it took 15 minutes to receive a check. The property was generally quiet but there was loud music emanating from another business on Sunday evening. Hopefully that was a one off occurrence. One of our rooms smelled strongly of varnish. Wish we had more time for the activities offered by the property. Sorry that we missed the city walk and bike tours since our priority was whale watching.

The Tropicana just reopened a few months ago after an extensive renovation. The common areas are lovely - beautifully decorated and very serene. The location of the hotel is great - just a minutes walk to the town square and with multitudes of restaurants and shops all around. But the best is the employees we encountered- KEVIN, GERARDO, SAMUEL, and ERICK who went out of their way to be of assistance. This was a last minute booking done through the Hilton website and we booked a rate for “NEW HOTEL AND $50 USD credit” which included an “upgrade where available”. We did book the lowest room type available because we saw on another travel websites that displays numbers of rooms left that there was plenty of availability and this was just the night before so we were taking the chance that an upgrade would be given and we also hold the top level in the Hilton loyalty program. At check in we were denied an upgrade as the front desk manager said we could only move one category up room to the “double deluxe” room which she said was not available. I did pull out my phone and show her that the Hilton website was showing the double deluxe room as available for the nights we were staying. She said that was wrong- there are only 2 rooms designated as “double deluxe” and they were occupied. She did offer to upgrade to the next room type (King with terrace) for $130 USD per night and then. If we would have booked this room type from the get go it was a $95 difference per night. She then offered the rate of $80 per night. Out of principle we declined this and asked her to check with someone to see if there was anything else that could be done. We were informed she would do that and notify us. After 45 minutes of waiting in the room assigned to us we had heard nothing. We decided to go out exploring and ran into the same manager who said “Oh, yes- we can’t do anything “. Not sure if she was planning to ever inform us of this or leave us hanging. So now to the room- the entry level room (2 double beds) is extremely small. With 2 of us with only a carry on and backpack each we were maxed out for space. The windows open onto a common walkway so if the curtains are opened anyone can see into your room. The lighting in the room is very dim- actually it is depressing. The bathroom is also tiny. Though there is a fan it was not very efficient. After a few minutes of the shower running the smoke detector went off. The front desk responded promptly to the alarm- calling and sending someone up. We were told to open the windows in the bathroom. This would have to be done by climbing atop the toilet- see pic. The complimentary Diamond/Gold continental breakfast is served on a nice terrace. The presentation is very nice. Choice of fruit or juice, coffee or tea, and pastry or bread. The second morning of our stay we opted to have this inside at the restaurant as it was chilly out-we were previously told we could do this. This was confusing fo

This is a brand new hotel and it is wonderful. It is so tastefully decorated, a beautiful garden pool, and incredibly helpful staff. I had a fabulous massage during our stay. And, the location is quiet but very centrally located, near the plaza. No doubt, it’s just a matter of time that the Hilton Tapistry is discovered. It combines the charm of an Inn, with all the amenities of a Hilton Hotel. Perfecto

Amazing! Clean, beautiful, warmest and kindest staff members; David the manager and all the front of the house and back of the house staff are so respectful. A definite stay for me anytime I am in San Jose del Cabo. Just steps from the city center/plaza and historic Iglesia/church.
