Hotel Las Palmas Midway Inn

Have stayed here several times, the internet can be spotty at times so if you're on business and have need for consistency in connection it could be an issue. The location is perfect for us, half way between our home in Mexico and where we travel to in Texas. The restaurant has good food both for supper and breakfast and there is a nice walking/biking trail located on the property if you want to get some exercise.

See note above about internet, although since it was traveling for pleasure not really an issue for us.

This resort is, in reality, much nicer and attractive than the internet photos reveal. The very large property is entirely closed in by fencing with cobble stone streets leading to the various blocks of single story rooms, reception, poos and restaurant. The Midway employs many uniformed staff who are very open to question and offering assistance. All rooms are air conditioned and the windows open for after dark cool air. The rooms (we had 2) are clean and comfortable. Most important for us, the entire resort is dog friendly which was the main reason for our selecting the resort. By the way, there is a Walmart store roughly across the street from the resort.

The only shortcoming was the internet. My room was located in a block of rooms located farthest away from the router location in the lobby/restaurant. The staff happily moved me to a closer room which gave me internet access but not very strong. I suggest when making the reservation request the block of rooms which is just across from the swimming pool. My suggestion to the Midway Resort is to install repeater routers throughout the property to ensure internet service.

The restaurant was very good, good selection & extremely attentive service. All the wait staff are men dressed in red jackets, nice touch. There is defiantly pride in ownership of this property, it may be an old established hotel/motel but it is very well kept, clean & everything is looked after. The front desk staff are very professional. I really enjoyed my evening stroll after dinner Thru the property.

It can be a little challenging to get into the parking lot, either a U-turn is necessary (over the bridge, under a small opening to get yourself turned around) or I recommend take the 57D highway, pass the hotel zona & allow your GPS to pass the hotel & backtrack you to the proper side of the Carraterra, so entrance is easier.

We loved eating and having drinks outside in the beautiful surroundings of nature. We loved how friendly the staff was and how well our dogs were treated. The food was good and we would definitely stay there again.

The beds! My bed in room 117 was like sleeping on concrete. I ached all night, and was tired the next day and the drive to Laredo was hard. The bed in room 119 was better and I slept well. A suggestion: replace the shower heads with water saving heads. The shower was so strong that water got al over the floor, I put a towel down to mop up the water. A rain shower head will keep the water in the shower area and give plenty of water for a good shower and save water.

Such a delightful place: the modernist bungalows are situated around a park-like setting. Our room had its own carport next to our door - easy to load and unload our car. They welcome pets and our doggie loved the grounds for walks with us. The onsite restaurant had good international food, and we loved sitting out by the pool for dinner.

After staying in large corporate hotels the past week, the lovely grounds overcame any small deficiencies on upkeep.

Room was well sized and the air-conditioned was great. Also enjoyed the pool.

The restaurant food was just ok, nothing really impressive. We did really like the mineral water lemonade though. Getting the attention of the wait staff to get the check was a bit of a challenge at times. Could have used a microwave in the room.

2nd time staying here. Had a MUCH larger & more comfortable room & beds were MUCH more comfortable! The grounds are just beautiful & all the staff are super sweet. Restauant is darn good, both for dinner & breakfast. This is now my go to place when I come through Matehuala. Everything was perfect, from the guy who takes his bicycle to show you where your room is & helped bring luggage in, to the staff at the concierge desk. Very helpful & very typically Mexico.

The steps into the room or into the office / restaurant. I had a really bad fall earlier in the day & hurt my knee badly. The steps were hard to navigate. But ordinarily this isn't an issue - it's just not handicapped accessible in general.

I love all the gras for walking my dog & the restaurant is always good.

The rooms for people with pets DID NOT HAVE A REFRIGERATOR, which I specifically requested due to needing to refrigerate medication & food. All they could offer was use of a refrigerator in lobby which I was not going to use in the middle of the night. Room also much (about 50%) smaller than other rooms at the same price.

The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Large green area for our dogs. The pool was big deep and refreshingly cool, unlike the overheated bathwater pools I've encountered. We felt very safe.We had a carport that was adjacent to our door and there is security. I could've stayed there for a week or more.

I would've liked a small fridge in the room.

We have stayed Las Palmas a number of times enroute from our home in Wisconsin and our second home in Patzcuaro, Mexico. It is a manageable one day drive from the border at Laredo and our final destination. The staff is always friendly and welcoming and we have found the restaurant food and service excellent. We appreciate that they allow pets. We have e dog and cat. There is a nice grassy area for walking our dog along with a nature trail. Also there is a cool and refreshing pool. We will be back!

We liked everything!
