Howard Johnson by Wyndham Veracruz
Rooftop pool with open Gulf views near the aquarium
Su questo hotel
Howard Johnson by Wyndham Veracruz keeps its rooms simple, but the rooftop pool is built for the view rather than the swim itself, angled to give guests a straighter line to open Gulf water than most Centro Histórico rooftops manage from behind the harbor's ship traffic. Its Boca del Río location, a seven-minute walk from the Aquarium of Veracruz, puts it closer to open coastline than the older port district, and the restaurant and airport shuttle handle the practical side of a stay without much fuss. Palapa Perea, five minutes away, covers a casual dinner outside the hotel. At 8.0 out of 10 across more than four thousand reviews, it's a dependable mid-range pick for travelers who want a rooftop pool angled at the Gulf rather than the harbor skyline.

Il nostro parere
L'Howard Johnson by Wyndham Veracruz è un tre stelle informale il cui punto forte è sul tetto: una piscina con vista aperta sul golfo del Messico. Le camere sono semplici, e ristorante, palestra e navetta per l'aeroporto coprono il lato pratico. L'Acquario di Veracruz è a sette minuti a piedi, il che lo rende una scelta facile per le famiglie. Un 8,0 su oltre 4.200 recensioni è buono senza essere eccezionale. Lo prenoterei per la nuotata sul tetto e la posizione, non per il lusso.
- ✓Head to the rooftop pool in the early evening for the clearest Gulf views before the light fades.
- ✓Walk the seven minutes to the Aquarium of Veracruz in the morning before the afternoon heat sets in.
- ✓Use the airport shuttle if you're arriving late, since Boca del Río sits a bit farther from downtown taxis.

Perché piace ai viaggiatoriI chose Howard Johnson mainly for the aquarium's proximity but ended up spending more time than planned at the rooftop pool, where the view opens onto the Gulf rather than the packed rooftops of the old port, a small but real difference from where I'd stayed in the Centro Histórico the year before. The aquarium visit itself became almost an afterthought by the second day.
