DISAPPOINTED
Asked three times prior to arrival for a room near the Hao restaurant asked on arrival and for three days after and were told to not ask again that reception "knew what we wanted". We were put in the room the longest distance from the Hao in a walk up room for two 79 year olds, not nice for guests having stayed there over 41 years having requested the room from a prior stay and paying for another room for quests. VERY DISAPPOINTING. On checkout were told to call next time for requests, etc.

The Thompson is hard to beat. Easy check in process, beautiful rooms, a great walking beach with many dining options close to the hotel. They have a new Chef named Omar he is on top of his game. Outstanding staff ready to meet your every need.

My favorite resort in Mexico. The food is fantastic, room design is beautiful, very soft robes, an amazing gym, the best beachfront property on Playa La Ropa, and to top it off service is amazing. We especially want to thank Francisco for the beachfront food service. He is such a hard working man and father of 3 children, we loved talking to him and he was so professional, friendly, and helpful. We also want to thank the event sales manager Vicente who showed utmost professionalism, hospitality, and charisma in every interaction. We love this Thompson so much!

Pros - the room was very large and nicely appointed. We loved the location (very walkable) and the overall property and beach were beautiful! Staff was pleasant. The weather in Zihuatanejo is fantastic, 87 and sunny everyday! Cons - our room check in was 2 hours late. After traveling all day we were tired and annoyed that we had to wait until 5 pm to get into our room that should’ve been ready at 3. Food and drinks are pricey and not great but we expected that. Service was “just ok” for the price of the hotel/amenities we thought service would be exceptional not the case. Always had to find someone to get a drink/foo, not what we’ve typically experienced in our travel throughout Mexico. The pool is large but not clean. We were just there for a week and I never saw anyone clean the pool. Same sand was in the pool day after day, kinda gross. Overall we had a nice vacation but I cannot say I’ll return to The Thompson given the prices and service. It was a good trip but not GREAT. We will return to Zihuatanejo because the weather in January is perfection but I’ll likely be researching other hotels.

The beach in front of the hotel is very busy with locals. Folks come with their umbrellas and chars in large groups that blocks the beach views from the very expensive hotel. Also, Thompson used to have live music in the evenings but not anymore. Disappointing over all.
