Crowne Plaza Acapulco, Pyramid-shaped hotel in Acapulco, Mexico
Crowne Plaza Acapulco is a 28-story pyramid-shaped high-rise hotel situated directly on the coastline, combining concrete, glass, and steel throughout its structure. The building houses guest rooms, multiple dining venues, and a business center that serve both travelers and local visitors.
The high-rise was completed in 1982, marking a period of architectural growth in Acapulco's tourism sector during the early 1980s. This construction phase shaped the city's urban development and its focus on international tourism.
The hotel opened in 1982 under the Costa Club name and later operated as Crowne Plaza before HS Hotsson bought it in 2018, its first beach destination. The chain budgeted about 12 million dollars for 2018-2020 to move it from four to five stars, the first renovation since construction.
The hotel is located on Avenida Costera Miguel Aleman in the Magallanes district, right on the seafront and easy to find. Visit during the day to enjoy the best views of the bay and the surrounding coastline.
The building was renamed twice before reaching its current identity: it opened as Costa Club, later operated as Crowne Plaza, and was acquired by HS Hotsson in 2018 as the chain's first beach destination. The 2018–2020 upgrade from four to five stars, budgeted at about 12 million dollars, was the first renovation since 1982.
