The pool, combined with on-site dining and social activities, creates a resort-like atmosphere. I find it a solid choice for travelers seeking value with a lively environment.”

Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Nilu Cancun Zona Hotelera By Selina from previous guests about their experience.

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests often appreciate the hotel's prime location in the Hotel Zone, just a short walk from Coco Bongo and a beautiful beach. The spacious and comfortable rooms, some with lagoon views, often come with air conditioning, and some guests have been upgraded to suites with refrigerators. The large pool is a definite plus, and the unique environment includes sightings of local wildlife, such as crocodiles sunbathing during breakfast; however, some guests have noted noise from rooms closer to the road.

helpful front deskroom upgradesafe luggage storageprivacy invasionfilthy toiletscramped rooms

I enjoyed the helpfulness of the front desk. They upgraded my room. i saw a crocodile sunbathing during breakfast. my luggage was kept safe until my airport transfer next evening.

The band i was forced to wear upon arrival was like an invasion of privacy. the condition of the facilities was appalling. The toilets were very filthy. rooms felt cramped and poorly maintained.
