Hotel Gobernador

In the heart of Durango on the city’s main avenue, a five-minute walk from the old town. Steps from Sagrado Corazon de Jesus Cathedral and Morelos Garden, and about 20 km from Guadalupe Victoria (DGO) airport. A true city-center hotel for sightseeing, meetings, and quick museum runs.

Housed in an American Colonial–style building on the site of the old state penitentiary, the hotel mixes historic bones with modern redesign. About 100 air-conditioned rooms feature flat-screen TVs, en suite showers and hairdryers, safes, desks, tea/coffee makers and ironing sets. Expect elegant public areas, a terrace and garden for fresh-air breaks.

Dip into an outdoor pool, keep fit in the gym, or book a massage in the dedicated room. Complimentary Wi‑Fi runs across the property. There's a bar, a café for snacks, valet and on-site parking, tour desk and transfer services, plus laundry, dry cleaning and car rental for smooth travel days.

Conference halls and meeting/presentation facilities, a function room and a computer station make this a solid pick for events and conventions. Express check-in/out and onsite valet parking add convenience for business travelers. Complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected.

Two on-site dining spots include La Hacienda, serving international cuisine, and Cafeteria El Rincon de Analco for casual bites. Enjoy a coffee shop, a lobby bar with live music on select nights, cooked-to-order breakfasts (7 AM–noon) and à la carte dinner options.
