Verified reviews of The Padre Hotel

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked in recently:
"Nice"
Overall score4.0/ 5
The Padre hotel is a very nice place to stay. Highly recommend. I would, however, caution that anyone booking should book directly with the hotel and not through one of the third party booking sites. expedia.com charged an extra $20 per night. Call the hotel directly and book directly.

I visited the Padre on the 27th of July. I had a slight issue and the manager took care of me and my party immediately. Kudos to Cristian Moncivaiz, he proved to be very helpful.

"Good coupled with bad."
Overall score3.0/ 5
Staff was kind and professional. Food was left wanting. Felt store bought and heated up, particularly the chocolate cake, that was awful. Furniture looked well worn and scuffs all over the walls in the room. It just felt like it was once a very fine hotel that has lost it's shine inside. Again, every staff person we engaged with was genuinely kind and professional and helpful, so the lack of standards for food and presentation is at least well made up for in their hiring standards, which is clearly top notch, so well done to the hiring manager.
