Hotel Irma offers affordable accommodations overlooking Zihuatanejo Bay. Situated atop a cliff, this quaint, colonial-style hotel opened in 1968 and has become well known for its guestrooms' breathtaking views. Renovated in 1997, the hotel guestrooms are comfortable, simple, no-frills affairs. The simple interiors and location away from the hustle and bustle of nearby Ixtapa resorts makes this a great place for those seeking quiet, rustic charm, and a taste of authentic Mexican culture. A long staircase reaches from the hotel, descending down a 50-foot cliff, to the calm waters of the Playa La Madera below. The hotel also offers two swimming pools overlooking the beach for guests that prefer sunning from on high. On the premises, guests will find La Naranjas restaurant and an adjoining bar. With carved wood chairs, wooden beams, and stone columns, this small restaurant offers a charming setting for a casual meal. Limited room service is available. For offsite dining, Kau Kan, a favorite among visitors to the area, is right next door. Guests will find live jazz music and seafood at the nearby Bay Club and pizza at the neighboring Kontiki restaurant. There are many other dining options in the surrounding area. The hotel lies about a 20-minute walk to the main commercial center of Zihuatanejo. Guests will be able to reach attractions like the Archaeological Museum and the Mercado des Artesanias on foot. Ixtapa is five miles from the hotel. Guests can reach the Zihuatanejo airport in seven miles. This hotel has 75 double rooms. Guests may request one rollaway bed per room.
