Built by oil tycoon and art collector, J. Paul Getty as a personal playground back in 1958, the property was given a multi-million dollar facelift in 2004 and is considered one of Acapulco's finest hotels. It's quite private and urbane with a host of first-rate amenities and services that frequently… more cater to business travelers attending events and conferences. An oceanfront pool twists around a gushing waterfall and Revolcadero Beach, just a few feet further, offers chairs, umbrellas and gentle lapping waves. Overall, it's significantly subdued in comparison to its sister property next door, the Fairmont Princess, but a complimentary shuttle will take you to and fro if you want to check out the livelier scene. Although often described as a boutique-style hotel, rooms at the Pierre Marqués are spread out (mainly in low-rise pavilions) making it seem as though the property is endless. Bungalows, villas, and pavilion accommodations comprise the 335 guestrooms. Deluxe rooms overlook gardens, pools, fountains, and the ocean. Tropical hardwood furniture, colorful rugs, and marble baths make up the upscale decorum.

Pros: Roomy rooms, stellar housekeeping staff, near beach (water not great for swimming as waves & undertow very strong, but a wide shallow area for children and fine for strong swimmers), nice pools, fantastic children's playground. I loved the... more
