Along on Mexicoâ€(TM)s Pacific coastline, in the picturesque fishing village of Zihuatanejo, Viceroy Zihuatanejo graces the white sands of Playa La Ropa. At this Fodorâ€(TM)s Choice Hotel, no two of the adobe-type villas are alikeâ€"perhaps youâ€(TM)ll stay in a palapa in which a twisted tree trunk holds up its tile roof. Here, at this beachfront sanctuary, youâ€(TM)ll have a difficult decision before you: Should you enjoy a leisurely stroll through the meandering pathways or drift in the infinity pool that seems to spill right into the ocean?
Although filled with resort amenities and facilities, this property has the intimate feel of a boutique hotel with personalized service to match. Simply raise the flag outside your doorway, and white linen table service will arrive. Itâ€(TM)s just steps to the palm-shaded private beach, where warm waters are ideal for swimming. Arrangements can be made for sailing, water skiing, snorkeling, scuba diving or deep sea fishing. And savor an elegant candlelit dinner at The Restaurant at Viceroy Zihuatanejo or fresh seafood at La Cantina Bar & Grill.

The best location, beautiful atmosphere, great rooms, delicious food and perfect staff. Francisco our waiter was always so kind and helpful even when we need special food or drinks. And Mariana our cleaning lady did excellent job every day. Thanks to them our long stay was perfect!

Absolutely the best hotel in Zihuatanejo, best location, service, food and facilities. Rooms are ample and comfortable absolutely impeccable, Food is farm to table everything fresh and delicious. La ropa beach is perfect for swimming and water sports. Employees are attentive and professional. After first stay at Thompson about 5 years ago this is the place we keep coming back when in Zihuatanejo.

Love this place- this Is our 2nd time at the Thompson. Its unique amongst itself and the level of personal attention is great!! Coming back a second time we saw some familiar faces and new but all were more than welcoming. Very friendly staff all across the board. The food is amazing breakfast, lunch, dinner we ate at Hao of of the onsite restaurants daily as well as drinks on the beach! Location is prime you are less than 5 min cab ride from the malecon and "downtown". Super clean rooms, common areas, even the beach. Luckily we stay on the adult side so there weren't any kids and it was the best! Being able to walk out of your room right onto the beach is priceless! Defintely a place to visit again and again.
