“"STAY HERE!!!!!!!!"”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 December 2010
1
person found this review helpful

I recently stayed at this Hotel.despite the glaring review, "DON'T STAY HERE!!!!" I had been a guest of this hotel two years prior, so was curious to see if there was a problem. Nope! The Hotel Lucerna is a beautiful Hotel and still is a $5.00 Taxi ride. It has all the imenities of a 4or 5 star Hotel. Clean attractive comfortable rooms, nice lobby,spa, restaurants, bar. Friendly but very business like staff. Beautiful grounds including a large pool. It does cater to the business class and medical tourist. Tried their 4 star restaurant very classy, great food, staff,and creative chef. Tijuana is not a sleepy border town anymore! I believe the population is around 2 million now. I felt very safe traveling there as a solo female and will continue to enjoy this part of Mexico! Plus it is 15 minutes from San Diego!

“Outstanding choice for "medical tourists"”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 November 2010

people found this review helpful

Just returned from Tijuana with a friend who is getting medical treatment there. Alonso and all the staff at the Lucerna took such good care of us. There is a large variety of food choices, the rooms are lovely, the grounds are beautiful and soothing. It is very convenient to the clinics and hospital. We will be going back. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

The hotel won't allow you more than the amount of registered guest into the room. It gets more complicated....so JUST DON'T STAY HERE.

“Nice Hotel, Service lacked”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 October 2010

We stayed at this hotel while in Tijuana for one night. We booked the hotel on line and when we arrived it appeared to be as nice as it appeared in the pictures. Also from the boarder it was only a $5 cab ride. We were checked in quickly, and when we asked when they could bring up a crib for our 1 year old and a cot for our 3 yr old they said right away. Well we waited and waited, Made several calls to the front desk and then made several trips to the front desk to find out where our crib and cot where. It took them so long that they gave the cribs out to other famlies and only had one cot left. We ended up moving to another room with two double beds, small, and after my wife chewed out the manager in the lobby finally got the cot delivered to our room. The manager did give us free buffet breakfast in the restaurant the next day which was good, but I don't think that my 1 year old cared about the breakfast when she fell out of the cot in the middle of the night. The manager did not speak english and most of the front desk staff seemed to lack it as well. Our feeling was that when we asked for the crib and cot they just said its coming, its coming and didn't know what we really wanted in the first place.
On the plus side the location is good. There is a convenience store across the street and a Domino's pizza as well which our kids liked.
The hotel was booked full with business people and clearly that was who they catered to. This hotel is not for famlies, but we would recommend it to couples.
