Going to Guadalajara
In late November I will be taking a trip to Guadalajara, Mexico, to coincide with the National Tequila Festival. I'll be there four nights and five days, though I'll probably spend one day & night in Tequila.
I've looked in to booking rooms and have narrowed it down to two places: Hotel El Tapatio and the Fenix Hotel. Both run about $65/night. Fenix is downtown, and El Tapatio is on a hillside overlooking the city. We're planning on renting a car for about $20/day.
So I ask, have any of you been to Guadalajara, and have you heard of these hotels? Could you recommend another hotel in this price range or cheaper? Also, what MUST I see while I'm there? Do you have any warnings or recommendations for me? Most of all, has anyone actually been to Tequila during the festival?
Thanks!
