Great location, staff was very attentive and friendly, the rooms were OK, the building is definitely older and has outdated electrical sockets, and very few at that….We liked the fact that it had a full kitchen, but we did not utilize the kitchen as it was out on the balcony, and the AC unit, which is placed in the kitchen, was blowing out hot air (directly into the kitchen) the entire time you’re running the AC, which made it very hot to cook and enjoy. The staff did try to accommodate us with a similar room, however, all of the rooms have this type of set up that we were shown. Otherwise, our room was comfortable.
View from our room on the 4th floor.
Beautiful view.

Great stay

This is my third time staying at El Emperador and it’s been great. The manager Gervacio and the staff are amazing. You’re literally 30 feet from the beach and walking distance from a ton of restaurants & bars. If you stay there get a junior suite or higher as those have excellent views and are more spacious.

Generally an excellent stay. Reception and cleaning staff were helpful, pleasant and warm. Hotel needs updates for sure, as it is an older hotel, but all the basics were good and working in our room. No complaints at all. Plan to return. Lovely view of ocean , palm trees and beach from our room.

Older building on the beach, very noisy at night from the street, no amenities, linens should be replaced as they are no longer white and are now full of stains. The view was great from our room but could not walk on patio since the restaurant downstairs cooks lots of fish and I could smell it when on the patio. The front desk folks were very nice.

The location is excellent. Staff friendly and helpful. Cleaning staff great. Many thanks to Gaby, who took wonderful care of our room. View from our oceanfront room fantastic; sound of the waves at night, after beach nightlife settles down, is soothing and just lovely. The ocean is warmer this time of year and was a welcome pleasure.

They gave me an upgrade to an ocean view studio. It was nice . And they also extended the check out time to 12 instead of 11, so that was nice. Staff at the reception was kind and gave excellent service. Alejandro, The guy who closes the front gate by the beach entrance was rude, but other then that, it was a good experience.
