The hotel, grounds and decor are very nice but If you stay here, ask for a second floor room. The humidity and rain create a dampness and musty smell in the 1st floor rooms. Based on the hotel selections in this town, this is hands down the best. The staff is very friendly and helpful. It is not within walking distance to the beach or anything else of interest, a taxi or car is a must.

I stayed twice at the Terranova after 3 consecutive stays at the NH - definitely an improvement. The pool is spacious, the grounds well kept, there is a nice view of the river. The restaurant is very good. The breakfast buffet is plentiful and varied. Service is average for the type of hotel it is.

On the down side, it is difficult to get to, especially if there is traffic. Walking from the hotel to a restaurant or shops is complicated - you basically need a cab or rental car. The air conditioning in most public areas is way too cold.

There really isn't any better hotels in Coatzacoalcos, thus the relatively higher price. This is not a "fantastic" hotel, but if you are going to stay in Coatzacoalcos, this would be my recommendation.

The Terranova Hotel in Coatzacoalcos , might not be the most accesible hotel in the city but definetibely it worth taking the trouble getting there , its a very large luxury hotel in the city suburbs by the tropical river and guest might enjoy the beautiful gardens and pool and relaxing garden areas to enjoy the scenery also meals and drinks could served in several of the Palapas , guest rooms are very nice and quite updated and there is a club seccion that its worth staying in .
there is a very nice restaurant that serves international cuisine and local fare and wine list is extensive , there is a very nice bar near the lobby area with live music and large T V screens .
several meeting rooms and large ball rooms are in site .
security is a most in this Hotel .
taxis and car rental are available and they offer an airport courtesy shouttle to the near Minatitlan (MTT) internartional airport
