Review

I travel often for both business and leisure so I stay at a lot of hotels. The Camino Real is one of my favorites. I have used the chain in Guadalajara and Juarez as well. It is an old Hotel with a magnificant bar and restaurant. The rooms were very spacious. The pool was nice and quiet. The charm of the Hotel was that of a "yesteryear" feel to it with all the modern conveniences of today. It was great to be close to interstate acces, downtown shopping and covered parking. My choice when I travel to the El Paso/Juarez area.

Das Hotel aus der Zeit um die vorletzte Jahrhundertwende ist unvergleichlich in seinem Charme und repräsentiert El Paso schlechthin. Man kann so etwas nicht mit einer sterilen Hotelkette der neueren Zeit vergleichen. Mein Zimmer war voll funktionsfähig, sauber und bequem. Der Hammer ist die Domebar am Wochenende (Fr, Sa). unvergleichliche Flair und Stimmung. Die Angestellten geben gute Auskunft, wenn man sie zu konkreten Themen befragt, z.B. Restauranttipps. Shuttleservice zu Zielen in die Stadt. Insgesamt ein Erlebnis.

Just walking into the hotel gives you an awesome feeling. Our room was clean an spacious. The employees were anxious to help with anything we needed. The best part of the hotel is the lobby bar with its magnificent domed ceiling. Our experience in the Dome Restaurant was one of rare complete ultimate service--worth the high price. It was close enough to the Mexican border that we took the trolly into Juarez and walked back. The hotel was very reasonable for its beauty, location and service.

We visited El Camino Real en route back from a wedding in New Mexico and were delighted to experience this jewel of an historic hotel in El Paso. We adored the beautiful historic features, chandeliers, etc. Our room was large and very clean had great views of El Paso. Service was excellent. There were very few guests--the hotel was quite quiet. We were able to use the really nice weight room and pool...both virtually empty. The hotel's location is central to everything and we were able to catch a super efficient free hotel shuttle both to and from the airport. All at a total cost of $94/night. At this price the Camino Real--and a visit to El Paso is a real bargain.

We had never been to El Paso so we checked the web. We were amazed by the Camino Real hotel webpage, but who believes these pictures? However, the actual hotel surpassed our expectations. It is an historic hotel in a plaza with other cultural buildings (a performing arts center and a museum). The hotel is beautifully and tastefully decorated - wood, marble and a huge stained glass dome encompassing the bar. This elegant atmosphere made our margharitas taste so much better. Near the bar was a 4 diamond restaurant that was a bit too pricey for our present vacation which was to visit Big Bend and other national parks. Our rooms were spacious and decorated with furnishings unlikely to be found in an American hotel chain. Each floor was nicely decorated (we checked!). The lobby showcased artwork with huge paintings of horses, native Americans etc. done by local artists. The hotel staff was helpful and suggested restaurants even though there were two in the hotel. This stay set a nice tone for the trip. We were there for only two days and I wouldn't look any further were we to find a reason to be in the El Paso area again.

Just writing to say that we honestly can't see what the bad reviewers saw that was bad in the hotel. During our stay their we got a huge Junior Suite which had a marvelous view of downtown El Paso. All the furniture and bedding was modern and not old and frumpy. Carpeting was very clean and seemed newly installed to match the muted red decor. A/C worked correctly with no issues at all. The suite we stayed in had modern draperies and was very well lit inside. The bed was awesome and huge. New modern linens with full set of huge pillows and blankets that were comfy. You get the option of having your bed done everyday with new comfy modern linens or they can reuse the same linens to save on not using detergents. They are part of eco-friendly hotels who try to use less earth-damaging practices ie. less harmful chemicals, energy efficient lighting (the reason those bath lamps take 2 mins which is really less than a minute to warm up to full brightness). Great choice if you're into staying in a more eco-conscious hotel. The vicinity of downtown with the El Paso Museum of Art right directly behind the hotel and a Plaza theatre where you can check out touring Broadway plays next to it. Plus you are right in the central bus hub where you can take a 25 cent trolley to go to El Paso's sunset heights district or to the bridge of Mexico to partake in fine dining/sight seeing or check out the university. The hotel itself has a great decor the Dome bar is just a nice place to be in because it's something you don't see every day. Likewise around the dome bar you have various actual authentic paintings or Lithographs from renound artists i.e. Salvador Dali, Picasso that you don't see at a Hilton or any other hotel in the area another great site to have your cameras ready to take pics of. Parking is pretty big so no worry about not finding parking and the cars are real close to the elevators to bring up your staff if you don't take advantage of the bellboy service. In/Out privileges everyday for 5 bucks in DOWNTOWN is awesome. We had the advantage of booking when they offered free breakfast vouchers. Azulejos the mexican restaurant inside the Hotel serves some of the best mexican breakfast buffett which we recommend you check out. Great chilaquiles, chile colorado/verde and other regular american staples like pastries, cereal oatmeal etc. at a very decent price. Don't pass up on taking them up for the breakfast. Service was very swift and nice as well. All in all a great hotel which more people should give a shot at. Don't go to much by the previous bad reviews imo.
