The Roof Backpackers Reviews

Description

The Roof Backpackers opened in November 2014, in the city of Guadalajara, Jalisco.

The Roof Backpackers is owned and managed by travelers who know what a hostel needs. We love hosting people from other countries to learn about other cultures, to make new friends, and to show them a little of what our country has to offer in one of the most beautiful states of Mexico, Jalisco, the home of Tequila.

Enjoy a relaxed, clean, fun, and friendly atmosphere where “Mi casa es tu casa” with a large terrace and beautiful view of the Expiatorio Temple. We are Ideally located in American Colony (Colonia Americana), a safe neighborhood that is in walking distance of the historical center of Guadalajara and the Expiatorio Temple, where you can find markets, street food, and free dance lessons. In addition, we are close to ATMs, supermarkets, and Chapultepec Avenue, famous for its nightlife.

Whether you in search of a comfortable dorm or a cozy private room, you will find what you are looking for at The Roof. Our rooms are clean, comfortable, and secure room as we have security cameras both outside and inside the hostel.
We provide various services including board games, laundry service (at an extra cost), towel rental, lock rental, TV with a DVD collection, luggage storage, lockers, high speed internet, hot showers, and a fully equipped kitchen to prepare your own food, but don’t worry about coffee, we will provide that. In addition, breakfast is included for the private rooms as well as a towel.

We can also help you find information for all kinds of activities in and around Guadalajara that you can do everyday of the week, on your own, without an expensive private tour. We can also recommend restaurants, bars, day trips (and the cheapest and nicest tequila distillery), markets, free tours, beautiful churches, parks, museums, free dance lessons, and nightclubs. We hope to see you at The Roof! Nos vemos en The Roof!
